It also doesn't hurt that they offer a referral bonus :) I've been on this list for many years, although not many of you probably know me as I don't make it many meetups. My company, ScienceLogic, is hiring across the company spectrum: python developers, devops, AI/ML, JS/React developers, systems engineers, and even sales and marketing. Take a look at open positions in Reston VA and RTP . If you apply directly through the careers site instead of through me, be sure to say I referred you. Quick background: ScienceLogic was recently named top in our quadrant for AIOps by Forrester. AIOps, is the combination of device and app monitoring with contextual intelligence that makes alerting and automation possible. The SL1 platform lets you see your devices and apps and how they interconnect in a single pane of glass. Our product monitors the satellites that provide your airline's wifi. We help prevent and resolve outages on your bank's websites. We keep the international space station's internal systems up and running. Cisco IT uses SL1 for monitoring all of their global devices and apps . We are based in Reston, VA, and have a small but growing office of about 20 here in RTP. The majority of our code base is python, with a frontend using React. We are building out a SaaS offering based on Kubernetes and Docker. We offer unlimited time off, great benefits, competitive pay, and all the other stuff we expect these days as successful computer nerds.

If you are a beginner just getting started, or have a project well underway you want to tinker with, all are welcome. The setting is informal and there is no set schedule, so folks are welcome to come at any point during the evening. It's an informal time to code, chat, with a brief break at about 7PM when we introduce ourselves and what we are working on. Hope to see you there! Thanks, as always, to Caktus for providing the meeting space and pizza. Details: When: Monday, June 17, 6-9pm Where: Caktus Group Tech Space, 108 Morris St., Durham What: Join us for our monthly project night to tinker, discuss all things Python. If you don't have something specific you are working on, that's fine. If you just need help getting started with Python, bring your laptop and we will help. If you are a veteran programmer, come on by for code and pizza. It's an informal meetup where people work on projects, talk about programming, and give and receive tips on all things Python.

Project maintainers often want the help, but don?t realize how they are inadvertently appearing unwelcoming. Charlotte Mays will discuss some of the most common complaints she's heard from new coders who tried to contribute but left in frustration, and ways that these can be addressed without putting too much burden on the maintainers. Our speaker, Charlotte Mays, is passionate about open source and making tech accessible to all who take an interest. Charlotte contributes to open source projects such as BeeWare and helps organize her local chapter of PyLadies. When not busy with those contributions or her day job at Red Hat, she can often be found working on fiber crafts. Extemporaneous "lightning talks" of 5-10 minute duration are also welcome and don't need to be pre-announced. Lightning talks are for you to "show and tell" something you've learned about Python recently, no matter how small. We all use Python, therefore, we are always learning something new about Python that we can tell others. Park in the municipal deck on the other side of the Arts Council across W. Morgan St. The after-meeting will be around the corner at Bull McCabe's Irish Pub. Come join us for a fun and informative evening. -- Sincerely, Chris Calloway Applications Analyst University of North Carolina Renaissance Computing Institute (919) 599-3530 From mkoistinen at gmail.com Thu Jun 27 18:41:25 2019 From: mkoistinen at gmail.com (Martin Koistinen) Date: Thu, 27 Jun 2019 18:41:25 -0400 Subject: [TriPython] Actively seeking Python and/or C++ developers Message-ID: Greetings fellow TriPUGers! The company I work for is seeking a number of developers of all levels! In particular, Python and C++ engineers for our growing team on a successful, established start-up. We use a number of languages and technologies but the best candidates will be willing to apply their experience in any languages required. I know that we're currently using Python, C++, Java and other languages in various parts of the business. *If you are an experienced Python and/or C++ developer, you will probably be prioritized! More-so still if you have Django experience.* *Other requirements:* - Clear and concise, written and verbal communication skills. - Be part of a team of passionate technical professionals fostering a high-performance culture. - Cloud experience helpful; preferably in Amazon Web Services. - Experience with Linux operating systems in production environments. - Containerized development using Docker knowledge a plus. - Experience with Git, Continuous Integration and Continuous Delivery mechanisms. - RDBMS experience; Postgres preferred. - 5+ years as a focused software engineer. - Bachelor?s degree preferred or relevant experience. Now, from my experience here, I can tell you that the company offers competitive salaries and a pretty decent gamut of benefits including 401(k) matching amongst many other things. *This is a REMOTE position* too! I work from home! The company is located in another US State. Alternatively, if you're willing to relocate, they'd probably like that too. (NOTE, this position is for US persons only) Sound like you might be a good fit? Please reach out to me @ mkoistinen at gmail.com. Note, I am a developer at this same company. I am not a recruiter.
