Wanted: Python/Zope developers. Who are we? We're a small team within the world's largest web hosting organization (525,000 domains served). We see our mission as being a "city planning department" of sorts for the company. We plan for the growth of that community and develop the tools to make the community work through collaboration. Our flagship tool is a Python/ZPublisher based request-tracking system that currently serves about 20,000 requests per week. We use open source software heavily and like to contribute back to the community, as you've seen. We expect to do even more of this in the future. Not only will we pay you to think up neat new stuff and write it, but you can likely give it away. Our team is currently at 5 people, looking to grow to 6 or 7. Our team is headed by a developer, not a "PHB". Two of us are developers, the other three handle system administration, process consulting, training, etc. However, we all do a little bit of everything. We're looking for one strong developer, and one person with some mix of consultant/developer/admin capabilities. We strive to be a closely knit team and the nature of our work requires that we work in the same place most of the time, so relocation to the sunny Boca Raton, FL area is required. Poor you. :-) We provide Medical, Dental, 401k, bonuses and options, etc. EOE. The developer applicant should have significant Python and/or Zope experience. The following technical knowledge and skills would be beneficial (We don't expect anyone to know all or even half of this, but flexibility and willingness to learn new things, including things not on this list or which haven't been invented yet, is important. We work on a variety of projects, so adaptability and a certain jack-of-all-tradesness is a key quality): * Python * Zope * ZPublisher/Bobo (independent of Zope) * OO design skills * SQL * LDAP * XML-RPC, CORBA, or SOAP * Experience building web-based applications * HTML design * Knowledge of workflow automation principles * Threaded programming * GUI and visual design * System administration experience, especially Unix and Sybase. Knowledge of a variety of Unix-derived OSes is a plus. * Ability to write technical documentation * Javascript (especially in relation to DTML) * C (especially in relation to Python) The consultant/trainer/admin position should have have some technical skills plus strong networking skills (in the "with people" sense) and verbal and written communications skills, the ability to figure out requirements for systems (not only computer systems, but systems of people and procedures), figure out how people do, would, and should use them, explain them, document them, train people on them, figure out what works and what doesn't, and generally see the "big picture". Applicants for either position would greatly benefit from having qualities of the other. Interested? Please email privately to Phillip J. Eby <pje@telecommunity.com> with your resume, and more importantly with a brief description of your qualifications as relevant to the above. Also, please include your salary requirements.
