While I am doing most of my work in Rails now I occasionally need
folks to help out in the Java space. It looks like that time has
come again.

I am working on a bid that is essentially a Scrum/XP hybrid Agile
project. We will be doing TDD, Continuous Integration, Pairing and
all of the other fun Engineering Practices that come with an Agile
Project. We are bidding a Grails/J2EE to fit into their existing
J2EE deployment.

As part of this engagement we will be helping bring the client up to
speed on Grails and Agile Development so I am also looking for folks
that like to act as role models/mentors.

What You Need
- J2EE experience (I know Grails claims to hide this beast but...)
- Penchant for Agile Development and experience with the practices
- Some Rails Experience would be nice
- Grails experience would be great (I realize that there is not a lot
of that out there ... so don't sweat it)
- Ability to mentor others

This is a subcontract gig so you need to be aware that there are no
benefits attached to this offer other than the ability to work on an
Agile Project and make a decent rate doing it. The work is in the
Reston VA area.

If you are interested drop me a line.
