Hey Djangonauts!

I'm looking to hire a web developer. Come work with a small team on an early stage startup! If you want to talk more, catch me at the coder's social tomorrow. I feel it's important to clarify that I'm an engineer, so you can ask me technical questions too. =)

Here's more:

Work with a talented team of engineers across the entire product development cycle for MobilePaks, a fast-growing, award-winning sales knowledge and productivity software company. We’re a small team, which means you can make a big impact. Ideally you’ve worked with the modern web stack, whether that’s in Django and AngularJS or other reasonable frameworks. Play the role that fits you best in a welcoming, collaborative and communicative team. We value and focus our efforts on the success of our customers, personal responsibility and learning. We do practice Agile/extreme programming[1] in short iterations with retrospectives[2] and energized work[3]. If you’d like to know more about what makes us successful, come ask us about what we’ve decided in our last few retrospectives and why.


Core skills:

* Web development, 

    ideally Django + any frontend framework

    or AngularJS + any backend MVC framework

* Automated unit testing / TDD or equivalent

* Ability to identify and locate bugs and propose solutions

* Willingness to get involved in the whole cycle of engineering, including

    * clarifying new features and understanding the user experience

    * seeking cleaner code and architecture

    * taking security seriously

    * participating in planning and reflection


Our ideal candidate is a strong advocate for continuous improvement in engineering practice and other areas, and takes an active interest in an area of deeper expertise that matters to us, e.g., quality, analytics, mobile, or data science 


About Us

MobilePaks employees are building a company that fundamentally changes how people develop, access and share knowledge in business today. We make inspiring, easy-to-use products that help people achieve their full potential. We put the user first in everything we architect, making a clean break from the past and taking an innovative approach to knowledge support and sharing. All of us at MobilePaks are passionate about improving performance, and the science of learning and knowledge retention drives our philosophy and goals.


How to apply

A resume is optional[4]. What we’d really like to see is a paragraph or two describing a project you worked on recently from a technical perspective. You can email me directly, or to car...@mobilepaks.com
