Ruby on Rails expert, PHP genius, Apple iPhone developer and mobile DJ joins the growing Mixd team!

Some of you will already know Dave – ‘the international master of rave’ as he is affectionately known here at Mixd owing to his mobile DJ career – from his involvement in the technical aspects of your digital project.

He’s one of those guys that never sees the light of day, survives totally on crisps, coffee and red bull, and is an absolute genius when it comes to anything technical. You know… a (self-proclaimed) geek.

Anyway, enough of that geek talk, we have an announcement to make!

The Mixd team is delighted that Dave has ‘signed-up’ completely to the Mixd ethos and has become a permanent member of the expanding Mixd offering. Dave will continue to head up the Mixd website development team, as Senior PHP Developer, whilst leading online application development utilising his vast knowledge of the fast emerging Ruby on Rails programming language. As the digital world moves more and more into mobile, Dave’s expertise in Apple iPhone app development will also come to the fore.

Mixd’s Digital Director, Phil Shackleton, commented “With Dave coming onboard fully on a permanent basis, the Mixd offering moves forward even further and keeps us at the forefront of the digital world. Let’s face it, no discipline moves as fast and if you stand still you get left behind. We have a duty to our clients and to ourselves to be fully aware of the present and to embrace future trends within our industry as they happen”.

Dave has worked with Mixd for well over 5 years in a freelance and short-term contract capacity, so knows Mixd and its clients very well indeed.

Bob Tait, Producer at Mixd, was overjoyed with the appointment “The acquisition of Dave on a permanent basis is fantastic news for the Mixd team and our clients. People with Dave’s experience, abilities and passion don’t come along everyday and after a lengthy recruitment process, Dave was the right man for the job. I’m really looking forward to working with Dave on new exciting projects that can showcase our talents and offer a great return on investment for clients. However, the main plus point is that it’s made finding a half-decent DJ for the office bash very easy indeed!”.

Now that’s what we call music.

Good luck Dave and welcome (fully) onboard.
