Chief Technical Officer
The Chief Technical Officer acts as the webmaster and is responsible for maintaining and updating the JYI Web site. This includes the development and maintenance of the Web site, Web servers, the Journal Management System (JMS), electronic systems, JYI email aliases, and the formatting of the journal contents for publication. The CTO oversees the non-article (non-journal) content and the design, layout, and graphics on the Web pages. The CTO also serves on JYI's Board of Directors, which directs the organization as a whole.
Job Requirements: The Chief Technical Officer position is a Board of Directors position, and, like all BOD positions, requires a commitment of at least 10 hours per week. All communication is via internet or phone, so no geographical constraints exist – the CTO may live anywhere in the world. All JYI staff are expected to check their email daily and respond promptly if necessary.
Preferred Skills or Experience: The Chief Technical Officer must have extensive experience with PHP and MySQL, preferably with a past project already complete for consideration. Experience with Macromedia Flash and ActionScript is preferred, as is experience in other programming languages. The best applicants will have experience with several different website and media development tools. The CTO should be able to work with a team to accomplish common goals, coordinating the technical department's programmers and graphic artists.
