**Project Overview** An established engineering company is seeking a highly skilled **website developer** to create a high-quality prototype of their website header as the initial phase of a larger site upgrade project. This task serves as a skills assessment, requiring the developer to demonstrate strong technical proficiency through **low-level, custom PHP coding** rather than relying on pre-built themes, plugins, WordPress builders, or drag-and-drop tools. The selected professional will receive a **graphic design specification** along with a brief functional outline and is expected to apply logical problem-solving to implement the header accurately and efficiently. **Key Requirements** - Proven expertise in **PHP** and **MySQL**, with demonstrated ability to build custom, performant solutions from scratch. - Strong preference for developers experienced in low-level/hand-coded development, capable of working independently with minimal spoon-feeding of specifications. - Nice-to-have: Solid knowledge of front-end technologies (HTML, CSS, JavaScript) for seamless integration and polished presentation. **Deliverables** - A fully functional header prototype that faithfully matches the provided design and functional requirements. - Clean, well-structured code with comment explaining algorithm & functions delivered for review and testing. This is an opportunity to showcase exceptional custom web development skills on a real-world engineering company project, with potential for ongoing collaboration on the full website upgrade. Experienced PHP/MySQL specialists who thrive on technical challenges and custom coding are strongly encouraged to apply.
