Djangogigs.com - Details for the web developer gig

We're looking for up to two good all-rounders to join our team in Wimbledon, South West London.

ReportLab is one of the oldest and best known Python companies in the UK. We maintain a very widely used open source library; sell commercial Python products on top of this; build web-based, content-backed systems to publish personalised literature; and do a full range of web development work for clients, many of whom are household names. We have been using Django for almost all of our web projects since the first release.

We're interested both in people with years of experience and in talented beginners willing to learn fast. Ideallly you will have a good understanding of web technologies and some knowledge of several of the following skills:

• Python programming - or evidence of ability to learn multiple languages
• Good analysis skills - the ability to listen to customers, figure out where the value lies, and help decide what to build in the first place
• Understanding of web frameworks, databases, XML and/or JSON
• Know CSS, HTML and Javascript (an eye for visual design is a plus)
• Have the common sense to know when coding is NOT the answer and the ability to communicate clearly with non-programmers
• Common practices in agile, open-source-style development

Our work covers the full stack from front-end through to server-side development, in a modern open source environment. We use Python, Django and MySQL on all common platforms, jQuery and similar libraries for rich interfaces, as well as our own products for PDF generation. We follow Agile processes where possible.

We look for people who are smart, get things done and are good team players, and strive to create an enjoyable working environment. We are very happy to mentor talented and committed graduates and can offer an oustanding programmin education, working alongside developers with decades of experience.

All applicants must be able to communicate their ideas clearly in written English, and to deal with customers from time to time. Salary range is between £21k and £30k depending on experience.The position is based in Wimbledon, London, UK. No remote working and no agencies, please.
