[python-uk] Looking to recruit experienced developer, Bath

[Graham Carlyle]

Hello All

My company is looking to recruit a experienced software developer. We
use Python as our preferred development language. 

Most of our work is web based, some of our newer stuff is using Django. 

We're based in central-ish Bath. We have a company dog (well actually
its the bosses but it sometimes manages to sneak into the office). We
often "hack" with a hackey sack at lunch time.

The advert we posted on the python jobs website is included below...

To apply email your CV to this address: recruitment at maplecroft.net

cheers,
Graham

Job Description:

Maplecroft was founded in 2001 to provide strategic corporate
responsibility advisory services and global business risk management. We
are a close-knit team of specialists, committed to providing rigorously
researched information and communicating it in interactive, creative
ways.

We are looking for two more developers to join our growing Software
team. The team is responsible for Maplecroft's IT infrastructure,
including:

      * managing and developing existing services such as Maplecroft
        Maps, Ethical Insight and Global Risks 
      * prototyping, developing and deploying new services and
        applications 
      * investigating new technologies for future use 
      * developing the data-gathering tools and research database behind
        all of Maplecroft's services

We welcome applications from individuals with significant experience in
software / systems development. In particular:

      * web application development (server-side and client-side) 
      * subscription management, authentication 
      * content management 
      * Internet security and resilience 
      * databases

Any experience with our current technologies - Apache, MySQL, XML,
Python, Flash/Flex, GIS, Zope/Plone - would be advantageous, as would
any Linux/Unix system administration experience.

You will be joining a small, enthusiastic team working in a fast-moving,
customer-driven environment. Flexibility and the ability to innovate are
essential, as is the ability to communicate effectively.

What Python is used for: server-side scripting (mod_python, Django),
data formatting and processing, CMS (Plone)
