Web Application Developer (mostly Python) at Level 12 Technologies (Louisville, KY) (allows remote)

Job Description

Level 12 Technologies is looking for a web developer/programmer.  Part-time or full-time positions will be considered.  The candidate will be responsible for planning and coding database driven web applications. 

The ideal candidate will have 3-5 years experience in Python (preferred) or other web-development languages (PHP, Ruby, .Net) and SQL servers (PostgreSQL, Microsoft SQL, MySQL).  Experience in JavaScript, xhtml, css, web standards, and table-less design techniques is also desired.

Most of our work is with back-end code and databases, so above-average skill in those areas is required.  Contributions to the open-source community are a plus.  Proven ability to communicate effectively with customers and management and willingness to take responsibility for projects and drive them to completion is a necessity.

Telecommuting may be an option for this position, but preference will be given to local candidates who can meet face-to-face regularly.

Joel Test

  1. Do you use source control? Yep.  HG mostly, some Git.
  2. Can you make a build in one step?  Python doesn't need to "build".  However, most of our projects can be checked out and then setup with a single command.  So....sure.  🙂
  3. Do you make daily builds? ditto.  We also have a build server checking out and running tests on many of our projects.
  4. Do you have a bug database? Absolutely, we use Redmine.
  5. Do you fix bugs before writing new code? The one's we know about.  🙂
  6. Do you have an up-to-date schedule? Yes, you know and we know what you should be working on at all times.
  7. Do you have a spec?  Sometimes.  For larger projects, yes.
  8. Do programmers have quiet working conditions?  Yes.
  9. Do you use the best tools money can buy?  Nope, we make wise purchasing decisions balancing productivity with cost.  Expensive does not always mean superior.
  10. Do you have testers? Yep...you!  We believe in a practical test-centric development process.  If you check something in, it should generally have tests to go with it.
  11. Do new candidates write code during their interview?  Yep...our skills test is probably the most involved pre-hire coding test you have ever seen or even heard of.  Can you handle it?
  12. Do you do hallway usability testing?  Hmmm...not regularily.  But good UI design is a top priority, so maybe we should start.
