hedgehog lab Bug Tracking, Defect Tracking, and Issue Tracking software for the enterprise.

We are on the hunt for talent again!

Our company is by geeks and for geeks, delivering painless software solutions to common problems that businesses face daily. As a growing company, we are constantly recruiting and want to hear from you if you are “smart and can get things done”. Instead of waiting for us create a role for you to fit into, why not convince us to make up a role that fits around you.

Ideally, you will have great passion for software in general and for the web in particular. Programming is not just a job but a hobby for you and you’d much rather have the latest eeepc or the newest distro of Ubuntu for Christmas.

We want someone more than an "employee", who takes a 9 to 5 pay-check and wants a job typing away at a keyboard. We want people who want to change the world, re-write the Linux operating system, or build the next iPhone. Is that you?

Considering joining us? Send us a plain text CV (we hate big PDF's and large Word documents) to recruitment@hedgehoglab.com. Or if you really want to impress us, why not send a hResume or your LinkedIn profile.

We hear you say, "Ok! You sound like a decent company but what are the perks?". How about the following for starters,

• 4 day working week (only for product developers)
• 28 days paid holiday every year
• Profit sharing scheme (you get an even share whether you are a Director or a developer)
• Flexibility to work from home (if you ask nicely)
• Company mobile phone
• We pay your travel expenses to get to work if you commute
• We like our people to be wired 24/7, so we pay your broadband bills (unfortunately we cannot yet fix a broken router)
• Don't fancy a company phone because you already have one? Or maybe you are really like your dial-up and don't need broadband? Ask us and we will consider a custom benefits package for your circumstances.
