<blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex;"><div>Dear Pythonistas and Python-aware email list addicts,</div><div><br></div><div>We're looking to for our first full-time developer since taking funding. I'll be at the BayPIGgie Meetup tonight wearing an old bright green Techcrunch 50 shirt.</div>
<div><br></div><div>You'll be a key team member as we grow, working with me to build out the dev team and architect for the future. We're nearing completion of an alpha version of the product, with a mobile browser version to follow and possibly native mobile apps. We closed a seed round recently and already have a number of VC firms interested in Series A if we can execute.</div>
<div><br></div><div>I'd like a brilliant cohort to wade through architecture options as well as be a coding monster. Ideally you're a jack-of-all-trades, master-of-some. Perhaps you don't know everything, but given time and your ability to figure things out and get stuff done you're an invaluable asset. You'll be working with similar types. We'll be hiring a few more of them. We don't care about titles as much as cohesiveness and ability to organize and attack.</div>
<div><br></div><div>There's a real-time front-end component (might fool around with gevent+gunicorn+<a href="http://sockiet.io" target="_blank">sockiet.io</a>, hookbox, and stuff like that), a few interesting algo problems with speed and storage issues to consider, etc. I've been building the alpha using Python/Django/jQuery/Postgres deployed on ubuntu with nginx/uwsgi, but it's early enough along that I'm open to architecture and product ideas you bring to the problem we're solving. </div>
<div><br></div><div>At the moment I'm looking for an all-around multiple-hat-wearing type, but we'll quickly be moving to mobile, probably testing the waters with a mobile browser version and considering native iPhone/Android apps. So experience and connections you bring to the table across the board are valuable.</div>
<div><br></div><div>You must be extremely self-motivated, well-spoken, and direct. Gregarious and funny would be nice. The team has a very straight-forward "say what you think" dynamic. We don't care about education and accolades, we care about performance, team dynamics, and beating competitors.</div>
<div><br></div><div>Send me a resume and an intro with links to projects you've worked on, open source contributions / github account, or anything else we should know about you that sets you apart.</div><div><br></div>
<div>Or if you have a friend who might fit the bill, let me know!</div><div><br></div><div>Dave</div><div>gmail: davidmarble</div>
