We are committed to the personal development of our employees and believe that jobs should be allocated according to ability and interests rather than age or title.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
With an internet population already surpassing the US and the largest mobile phone population for the last 2-3 years, China’s a great place to be right now — in terms of helping understand Open Source in China, practicing agile software development, or simply learning about new non-Western technology trends (just google "QQ" or "Giant Interactive").
Salaries at Exoweb are very competitive with local market compensation and you get the added benefit of being able to get up-to-speed on the goings-on in China first-hand — yet still are able to develop great software with some of the best colleagues you can find anywhere — China or elsewhere.
Interested? Please send your resume in English to job-software-engineer-joel@exoweb.net and mention that you found our ad on Joel’s website.
We look forward to receiving your resume and, who knows, soon welcoming you in the Middle Kingdom!
