The Role

·       Have experience with Python, Django, HTML5, CSS, Jquery, Subversion (Git or Bazaar is just as good) and  Postgres (or MySQL).

·       Be at home on the command line, familiar with Linux server environments and be familiar with version control and release management techniques.

·       Stack:

Nginx, uWSGI, Django, Postgres, RackSpace instance

Version control: Subversion

Salary: £28,000 – 35,000 per year depending on experience.
