Hey folks,<br>
<br>
We seemed to decide the list is happy with a few appropriate job
posts. My new employer is hiring, and I'm excited about working
here, so I thought I'd share this with the list:<br>
<br>
Rangespan is a six month old Python-oriented startup, currently
around ten people, based in Paddington Station, London.<br>
<br>
In my first two weeks here I've been impressed by the high
standards of quality and the company's vaulting ambition. We
provide high-scale e-commerce technology to create a
revolutionary marketplace between major online retailers, and a
vast network of suppliers, transacting across millions of
products daily. Development has progressed enough to start
deploying and demonstrating the reality of this vision, but is
still early enough that all of us have a substantial effect on
the future of the company.<br>
<br>
We're looking for developers at a variety of levels, with strong
computer science backgrounds, and either stellar academic record
or proven industry experience. We'd like to see the sort of high
profile that comes with expertise and a pro-active attitude:
Python core contributors, conference speakers, open source
contributors & project leaders, thoughtful agile
evangelists, and scalability experts. We'll need a data
scientist, too.<br>
<br>
The sort of experience we're looking for includes:<br>
<ul>
<li>Highly fluent in Python, experienced with Django, Amazon
Web Services, MySQL and MongoDB.</li>
<li>Ability to contribute to an Agile environment, introducing
new practices, refining our process, being strong on testing
and TDD.<br>
</li>
<li>Expertise in architecting, coding & deploying RESTful
web services & web applications. </li>
<li>Automated deployments to EC2.<br>
</li>
<li>Provisioning new hardware and debugging live code.</li>
<li>Ability to attract additional world-class software
developers.</li>
<li>BS, MS or PhD degree in Computer Science or equivalent
field.</li>
</ul>
The founders are ex-Amazon executives and engineers, and bring a
wealth of commercial and operational expertise. While the
atmosphere is informal and affable, the technical team is
intimidatingly proficient. We don't use recruiters, because they
don't match up to the quality of candidates we insist upon. To
quote one of our founders "It's critical to the success of our
business to create the highest quality engineering team
possible."<br>
<br>
Sorry I can't be specific about salary but it would vary widely
depending on the applicant's experience. Suffice to say my
personal offer was highly competitive for any industry outside
of the city banks, plus for senior roles there would be equity
involved, which I judged to be really attractive.<br>
<br>
I'm happy to answer casual questions personally, or take receipt
of applications. Our formal job postings information is here: <a
moz-do-not-send="true" class="moz-txt-link-freetext"
href="http://rangespan.com/jobs/">http://rangespan.com/jobs/</a>
but in practice I think we'd be a little flexible about roles
for the right applicant.<br>
<br>
Best regards,<br>
<br>
Jonathan

Hey Luis,<br>
<br>
Thanks very much for the c.v. Very best of luck with the move to
London. Whatever happens, we should go our for lunch or a beer, to
welcome you to England!<br>
<br>
I'll wait a day or two to see what else our many job postings gather
and then let everyone know what we're thinking.<br>
<br>
Best regards,<br>
