Dev Needed for Multi-Touch Startup

I am working with a small seed funded start-up out of Georgia Tech’s College of Computing that is investigating an approach to take advantage of modern, large scale, multi-touch displays.  They are looking to hire a small number of programmers to help develop an innovative multi-touch document visualization and interaction system.

Right now, they are interested in hiring on an approximately 3 month contract basis, although they may be interested in extending that if circumstances allow.

Required:

* Two to three years of professional development experience.

* Two to three years experience with .NET and C#.

* Extensive experience with object oriented software engineering, design patterns, and the software design life-cycle.

* Extensive experience with Windows Presentation Foundation.

* Comfortable with basic linear algebra.

* User Interface development experience.

* Strong experience with collaborative development.

* Proactive and independent worker.

* Although you can work from home, you should be in the Atlanta area.

Desirable:

* Experience with computer graphics development.

* Multi-touch development.

* Expertise with text/document layout and rendering.

The software project is in an early iteration and has recently been tested thoroughly with potential users. The results of the evaluation pointed to numerous modifications and additions that must be made to the software–so we are interested in hiring someone to help us re-architect and significantly add to this application. Currently, the system is entirely client-side, written in C#, and
largely built on WPF.

Multi-touch is pretty hot at the moment.  This could be a really fun project. If you are interested contact me and I will get you connected with the company.
