Help Wanted: Literary Mama Seeks Web Wrangler!

Job description:

Update the content of the Web site on a weekly schedule, using Moveable Type, FTP, and HTML. Maintain the integrity of the site: update templates and style sheets, fix broken links and outdated code, add new departments or sections as the site grows, and filter and report C Panel statistics. Work closely with Senior Editors to plan and strategize moving our large, complex, heavily-archived site to a new Web host with new authoring tools. Train technical assistants and editors as needed.

Requirements:
The person in this position must be relentlessly cheerful and fearless about figuring out what they don’t know. The job also requires:
· Demonstrated expertise in HTML and Moveable Type 3.
· Knowledge of other authoring systems such as Moveable Type 4, Drupal, and WordPress is a big plus.
· Comfortable with the structure and needs of a large-scale online publication with many authors (beyond the scope of a large blog).
· Unqualified attention to detail.
· Ability to meet weekly deadlines.

This is not a paid position – we are all volunteers here. But it’s part-time, and you’ll get a behind the scenes peek at running an online publication, a fabulous line on your resume, and access to lots of great writers and editors.
