Djangogigs.com - Details for the senior software engineer - yourenew.com gig

Are you excited about reshaping the consumer electronics lifecycle?

YouRenew is building a platform to transform the way that we as a society think about reusing and recycling handheld electronics, centered around our website at www.yourenew.com. We have been featured on CNN, CNET, Fox, ABCNews.com, Xconomy, and more. Based in New Haven, CT, we are 5 months old but already making money.

We're hiring a creative, driven software engineer to develop elegant, powerful web applications to further our mission of helping people get paid to recycle. We are looking for someone who believes in YouRenew's vision and will play an integral role in getting to the next level.

We are not looking for a cog in the wheel. YouRenew is a small company, so you will be a key member of the team, and report directly to the CTO. If you excel in a small business environment, are self-motivated, and love web development, this job is for you!

Skills and experience you'll need:

• BS in Computer Science or equivalent experience.
• 1+ years of Django/Rails experience.
• 3+ years of Python/Ruby/PHP/Perl experience.
• A firm grounding in relational database modeling.
• Experience working on large software projects.
• Experience with an agile software development process.
• A thorough understanding of the entire web stack.
• Experience developing and deploying on Linux systems.
• Strong interpersonal communication skills.

We've got to have you if:

• You started or maintain an open source project we use.
• The core Django developers call you when they're uncertain about a design decision in Django.
• Internet Explorer 6's rendering strategy holds few surprises for you.

Don't miss out on this great early stage opportunity. We look forward to hearing from you. Contact us at Jobs@YouRenew.com.

Principals only, please.
