I've been a professional C, Perl, PHP and Python developer.
I'm an ex-sysadmin from the late 20th century.
These days I do more Javascript and CSS and whatnot, and promote UX and accessibility.
One of the agencies I worked for used to put out ads like that, and they got the recruitment agency treatment to turn them into, well, "my client, a fast-growing up-and-coming city-centre cool fortune-9000 forward-thinking company" sort of thing. Their use of the phrase "rock star" used to get us a lot of applications from people thinking we were Rockstar, whose offices were around the corner. Pointless.
