Jobs: developers

SetJam is an international startup functioning since June 2009, with a New York City business office and a Warsaw development office (read a TechCrunch article about us). Our goal is to make online TV easy by providing up to date, accurate listing of online TV and movies.

We are looking for talented Python developers who get their kicks from solving hard problems.

What do we require?

• Excellent Python skills
• Good understanding of basic CS concepts: recursion, pointers, higher-order functions...
• Working knowledge of UNIX-like operating systems
• Ability to use version control systems (Git, Mercurial, Darcs, SVN)
• Experience with relational databases (SQL)
• Basic understanding of web technologies: HTML, CSS, JSON,and XML

It will be a huge plus if you grok:

• Django
• Javascript and jQuery
• Test-driven development
• Machine learning
• Other programming languages (Haskell, Clojure, other Lisp dialects, Smalltalk, Prolog, Erlang...)

What can we offer?

• Blood, toil, tears and sweat.
• Interesting technical challenges.
• The possibility to work on a big, non-trivial project that uses cool technologies like EC2, SQS or RDS.
• A reasonable work methodology: We’re an agile shop. We do orthodox TDD, use Git for source control, continuous integration, have a separate staging environment, etc.
• We have a positively awesome office in one of the best Warsaw neighborhoods (Old Mokotów, right next to the Morskie Oko park).
• We have very comfortable chairs.
• Salary: $3000-$3500 (approximately 8600-10000 zł) per month

How to apply?

• Send an email to jobs@setjam.com
• Describe (in Polish or English) the most interesting technical problem you have ever worked on. It doesn't have to be Python related.
• Attach a résumé (in English) and include any other relevant information. We are interested in GitHub, BitBucket, LinkedIn profiles, Open Source or research activity... Stuff like that.
• We will confirm that we have received your email as soon as we get it. We will let you know if we are interested in an interview within a couple of days.
