Emma is on the hunt for a creative software developer to help build our next generation of web-based communications products.
As a member of the Application Development team, you'll work with
various open-source languages and software to power Emma's deceptively
easy-to-use interface. While we in AppDev get down with the
nitty-gritty of scaling concerns and database query performance, we're
more often focused on the challenge of turning the dreams of our User
Experience crew into reality.
On any given day, you might be
writing a new jQuery plugin or pushing up the next release of some
homegrown open-source Python library to github. At the same time you
might be sharing your ideas and experience about that next
awe-inspiring feature. We're a tightly-knit group looking for an
enthusiastic and thoughtful developer who's an even better team player.
Contact us and be sure to point us to some code or work of which you
are particularly proud. We love github or bitbucket profiles!
Absolute Must Haves:
* Proven development skills in Python, or a similar high-level language
* Experience with Javascript, specifically using jQuery
* Familiarity with relational database systems
* Familiarity with a wide range of internet technologies, such as HTTP, SMTP, Ajax, caching, web services, and so on
* Excellent and creative problem-solving skills
Things That Would Also Be Nice:
* Experience with agile development practices.
* Experience with Django or similar web frameworks
* In-depth knowledge of PostgreSQL
* Experience with the performance and scalability of high volume systems
We are looking for folks who would like to live and work in Nashville,
TN or Portland, OR, with relocation possible for the right candidate.
