[Chicago] Django Developer (Contract) Needed!

[Helen Tan]

*SUMMARY*

Why did you wake up today? If you're like us, you crawled out of bed and
pulled on your boots to figure out how to do something wildly, insanely,
great. (Because you'd go a little mad if you didn't.) We know. We get it.

We're *Manifest/Kerosene*. The brainchild of two of the most compelling,
competitive digital agencies in the business. Seen some cool LEGO stuff
lately? That's us. Tinkered with any award winning social networking
executions for Bally Total Fitness or McDonalds? Yep, us too. Been knocked
out by an online experience for one of Hollywood's latest blockbusters?
Again, yours truly.

For us it's not truly great if it doesn't blow our own minds first… long
before we get to yours. But it isn't creative for creativity's sake. It's
creative with purpose. We design to inspire, spark conversation, and engage
people in the most compelling, meaningful ways.

Today, we're looking to step things up. Recent investments have allowed us
to fire up the after-burners, propelling us head-on to one simple goal...
create the best new agency the world has never seen... and we need your help
to bring it to fruition.

Join us. Be a part of defining our biggest chapter yet: in Chicago, in L.A.
and wherever we decide to set up shop next.

Manifest Digital is seeking a knowledgeable *Django developer* to join a 10
week custom application development project for a major online food
publication.  Prospective candidates will have Django code available at the
ready to convey their skills and familiarity with the framework (a GitHub
account with forked repos or custom apps is ideal).  Experience integrating
with Facebook Connect and other RESTful web services is highly desired, but
not necessary.   This role will expect familiarity in developing both the
frontend (HTML/CSS/JS) and backend of a web application.  If you are
interested and meet the following qualifications, please contact Manifest
Digital Recruiting at recruiting at manifestdigital.com.



*QUALIFICATIONS*

·         1+ years django custom application development experience

·         Comfort with DVCS git

·         Knowledge of pip and virtualenv a plus

·         Familiarity with RDBMS, specifically PostgreSQL, preferred

·         Welcome knowledgeable developers that aren't afraid of voicing
their opinion on production stack deployment, but not necessary

clients include LEGO, Universal Pictures, Warner Bros, Bally Total Fitness,
McDonalds, Sony Pictures, 20th Century Fox, Avon, Coca-Cola, Nike, Burton
