From jjp at administrate.co Wed Jun 13 11:54:31 2012 From: jjp at administrate.co (John Peebles) Date: Wed, 13 Jun 2012 10:54:31 +0100 Subject: [Python Edinburgh] Python Devs Needed Message-ID: Hi All ? I was told by Dougal Matthews I could send over a job advert to this list. We're in need of two great python devs to help us transition our php application to a newer and better footing. Thanks! Who We Are Administrate helps training providers run better businesses. We love how our products make our users?s lives and businesses better. The customer may not always be right, but they always deserve the best and we strive to deliver solutions that are second to none. We are also a real company, with an established global customer base, a solid core team and a clear vision of where we are going, and how we will get there. Who You Are You're passionate about what you do. Always searching for a challenge, always looking to improve, you broke your first computer exploring what made it tick, then you rebuilt it, better than it was before. Better...stronger...faster. You build your own great stuff for fun, but at work you choose standards and reuse, because teams are not just one person, and you don't reinvent the wheel. Do things once, if people think you're doing it twice, they are wrong, you scripted it weeks ago. You're striving for perfection, but grounded in reality, getting the job done comes first, but it's never something to hide behind, because you don't do 'ok'. If something sucks you say why, and how to sort it, it doesn't matter who's being stupid. You're honest to a fault. You love to work with smart people and hate mediocrity. Small teams, dynamic companies and flexible working environments are unparalleled. Bureaucracy is for someone else who likes wasting time and effort. Work hard. Work smart. What You'll Do Work on business critical applications with real customers around the world. We aren't building better social todo lists here, we do real software with real engineering. Develop solutions in a variety of languages and leading technologies. Our core system is PHP, but we use Python and even good old statically typed, complied languages where required. What You'll Get Something to talk about. Real programmers have stories about code, we have a 7 year old codebase. You will have stories, good ones about defeating dragons, saving distressed peasants and founding cities that reach to the sky. Real impact on our products. We are a team of equals, the best ideas wins, whomever has them. Paid, in real money, not promises, from an established company.

Message-ID: Hi All, Who's up for a night of geeky chat in the pub? The same details as usual: 6:30pm at Berts Bar[1]. They serve reasonably priced food, providing you like pie. If the music/football gets turned up too loud, as occasionally happens, we may be found across the road in Teuchters. I will bring along a printout of the Python logo (it's already in my bag) so that we can be easily identified if you're new to the group. --Mark PS: Apologies for not sending this email out earlier - life has been a bit disorganised in the past few days. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
