Python Developer

Current position open: New York, NY.

·         Administering servers (accounts, backup, maintenance, networking, etc.) (servers are hosted at iNetU, and we have a primary in-house sysadmin, so there's not much of this)
·         Responding to server outage events (keep cell-phone on to get pages) (mostly as backup to SA, plus in case a subsystem you "own" has a problem)
·         Performing some in-house technical/customer support (as backup to existing support team, if they're in the field)
Skills required:
·         Software development in lean/agile environment. Automated test development.
·         Communication: with technical and non-technical staff; oral and written (wiki, email).
·         Agile software development collaborative practices: team-based analysis and design, documentation, source-code tracking, etc.
 
Personal attributes:
·         Comfortable in start-up environment: ongoing change in plans; lack of support staff; need for self-management via constant dialogue; etc.
 
Education/experience:
·         Bachelors Degree in technical field from accredited university.
·         5+ years of software development.
