Responsibilities:

• Youll be in charge of planning, managing and delivering updated product features in a fast-paced startup environment where things can change very quickly!
• You will participate and have a key say in product development discussion and planning
• Performing code review, testing and approval
• This is very much a mature and self-starting environment, and youll be carrying out complex tasks without being micro-managed. You will have to manage multiple complex and time-critical projects concurrently
• Youll have a major contribution towards building a sustainable and scalable hardware and software architecture
• Were self-starting but we work together so youll be collaborating with the front-end team to build a world-class platform
• Were not a big team at this point so youll be required to muck in elsewhere, such as assisting with operations, monitoring and automation alongside developing new features
• Youll be helping to build our engineering culture, so mentoring junior developers and promoting software development best practices will form a big part of that.

Requirements:

• Youll need to demonstrate a commercial software engineering background. Ideally youll be a Python specialist but if youve got experience with other similar programming languages wed still be interested in hearing from you
• Proven experience with a web framework, e.g. Django / Flask or Rails
• Youll be able to demonstrate an understanding of software design principles and development life cycle
• Competency in writing unit tests and code review
• It would be great if you have sound knowledge of modern front-end development, particularly HTML5, CSS3, JavaScript / jQuery / Angular, AJAX, REST APIs and JSON
• Proficient with Unix command line tools and comfortable writing shell scripts
• Any experience you have deploying to, provisioning and managing cloud-based environments and containers will be a plus
• Were a small but growing and very collaborative team so excellent communication skills, both written and verbal, as well as the capability to reach out to both technical and non-technical audiences are very useful!
• We need you to have a positive attitude and be passionate about building something great; youll be happy to, and be encouraged to, take the initiative when necessary.
