Contract Django/Python Web Developer for MVP Data Portal at RedLaser (eBay Inc.) (San Jose, CA) (allows remote)
Job Description
We are looking for a developer to join RedLaser on a contract basis, starting ASAP and lasting through the end of this year. This developer will lead the build out of a minimum-viable-product data portal, combining pre-built templates and a data API.
RedLaser was acquired by eBay a few years back, and we've kept a lot of our small-company feel. We're developer mobile-centric, always aiming to fail fast. As part of our mobile product, we get a lot of interesting data — our portal will help us explore how people shop around the world.
Skills Requirements
Required:
- Experience with Django (prefered) or another Python-based web framework
- Experience with Javascript
- Experience with HTML / CSS — we're not looking for a design guru, but template view tweaking will be necessary
After that, we're looking for experienced self-starters with relevant experience — if you're familiar with Hive or Cassandra, that'd be great. We'd also be super-excited if you've got a track record of working with big data or building data portals.
We really like open source people who contribute back to the community — definitely point us to your Github profile, if you have one.
