Industry Dive - Jr. Python/Django Developer - Washington, DC - Full Time

----------------------------------

We are a rapidly expanding mobile-focused B2B media startup. We have a staff of writers and editors who cover breaking news, curate interesting content and write original analysis for executives in industries like Education, Marketing, Energy, and Retail. See http://www.retaildive.com for an example and http://www.industrydive.com/ for more about us.

We use a variety of mostly open-source technology to create our products, but the core infrastructure is written in Django. You will be responsible for working with other developers to add features and fix bugs on our websites, especially adding features to the CMS that writers & editors rely on. Prior experience with Django/Python is desirable but not required.

The ideal candidate:

    + Has 1-2 years of relevant experience *OR* otherwise 
      demonstrates an aptitude for software development.

    + Thrives in a fast-paced environment. Is good at multitasking. 
      Has great communication skills.

    + Is self-motivated and entrepreneurial.
CSS/HTML/JS web design experience is a plus. An interest in mobile (iOS/Android) app development is a plus.

Why working at Industry Dive is great:

    + Short development cycle - When we have a good idea, we like to 
      move quickly and then iterate once it's live.

    + Not the same thing every day - We're still a small company and
      you'll have the opportunity to work on many projects outside
      your core job description.

    + Great team - Work with a diverse team of people who are very
      good at what they do.

    + We work hard, but we also have a lot of fun. And we definitely
      believe in healthy work/life balance. If you're looking for
      lots of crazy all-nighters, this is the wrong place.

    + It's a very exciting time for the company. At 2.5 years old,
      we're exceeding all our targets and reinvesting everything back
      into the company.
If interested, send a resume along with a brief note about why you think you'd be a good fit to eli-at-industrydive.com. If you have any question, feel free to ask.
