Interactive Flash Developer - eLearning simulations / gam,es

Do you dream of electric vector sheep? Interactive Flash Developers are special people. We’re looking for those souls who swim the interactive seas. They know the ways objects and states and classes can interact: mathematical spirals of logic, friction coefficients, variables of volition, the user acting, the experience re-acting. Serious Games, simulations, a whole other world, a learning ecology are tucked inside the screen just in front of us. The balance we’re looking for is hard to find: someone with enough confidence and experience that they can lead the development of an entire project, yet still seek advice and get help when they need it. We work closely together. We like developers who like people and working with others, and especially those who like learning from others and contributing their own wisdom. We create custom, interactive eLearning experiences for our clients. Think video games that help people do their job better. In fact, we study video games, it’s one of the best places to find great interactive, instructional design. Developers in our company lead the technical development of eLearning. The code, the standards, the way the data flows and the logic happens. Developers create the initial prototypes for the project in our Savvy Start sessions and refine those prototypes until the final design is approved. During the rapid prototyping process, the Developer collaborates closely with the project team: the Producer, Media Artist, and Instructional Designer. After prototyping is finished, the Developer builds the ironclad model that serves as the engine for the final project. This engine allows the production team (text, media, and programming) to fill in the content and complete the project. Developers don’t have to be experts in user interface, media, or interactivity design, but they do need to be conversant in those areas and be able to ask good questions about them as they relate to the development of the courses in Flash. We create eLearning for a broad spectrum of people: police officers, financial analysts, marketers, car mechanics, therapists, cell phone salespeople, brand managers, bank tellers, vacation planners, doctors, and many more.
