"Weta Digital is a world leading visual
effects company based in Wellington, New Zealand."
The "Production Engineer" roles on our
jobs page are heavily Python focused. Some of that Python code
will be inside applications like Autodesk's Maya or the Foundry's Nuke, but most of it
will solve the kinds of problems I'm sure most of you work on
routinely.

For example, because our render farm is on
the large side, we face many of the challenges of scale that
those of you who work on internet-facing applications will be
familiar with. On the client side, we
have an ocean of data to track, and we try
to provide our artists with simple tools
to get the most from that data. Frameworks
like PySide, Bottle and
TxWeb help us to get there.
Unsurprisingly, Twisted is well
established in the pipeline at Weta, and it's used in a
diverse set of client, server and automated/unattended
applications. We've had superb service from
Twisted, and we only expect its usage here to grow.
We have roles in Production
Engineering that we'd like to fill as soon as we can, but we're
protective of the great team that we have, and we try to grow it
carefully. We prefer to wait for the right people.
If you're interested in helping us to deliver some
extraordinary software and film projects, we'd love to hear from
you, and the recruitment form on our site takes just a few
minutes to fill in.
