Full-Stack Django Developer at Onespacemedia
Location: Cambridge, United Kingdom
If you're a web-obsessed Django developer with an eye for design and you want to join a friendly team in central Cambridge, we want to talk to you! We're looking for a developer who can come onboard and dive right into a wide variety of client projects.
Essential skills:
1. Knowledge of writing clean HTML5, Javascript, and CSS3 code which works cross-device and cross-browser.
2. Experience with working with standard APIs such as Google Maps, Twitter, and Facebook.
3. 2+ years of experience using Python and Django along with common packages such as South and Twython.
4. Ability to think logically about data models, relationships, and application flows.
5. Eagerness to learn new technologies and improve yourself.
6. Comfortable with Unix-based technologies and getting around in a Terminal.
In general, you'll know about most of the things on the Full Stack Python website.
Bonus skills:
1. Previous agency experience.
2. SASS and Compass.
3. Unit testing.
4. Zurb Foundation / responsive design.
What you can expect to work on:
Expect to work on a wide range of challenging projects. We don't have a cookie-cutter approach to the web and push the design and technical envelope on all our work. Recent projects have included: an application that manages, filters, and analyses radio spectrum data from a series of nationally-located nodes; a responsive website for a high-end safari and Africa travel company; a large website and online admin system to manage the ever-changing attractions and events for an interactive science centre; and a website/application that tracks, maps, and graphs the progress of University spin-out companies. Most of our projects are responsive, and we're as committed to the front-end user experience as we are to what's happening under the hood.
How we work:
As a team, we listen, learn, plan, design, build, test, and deliver together. Whilst different people are responsible for their own part of a project, we all understand the importance of the chain and support each other to get things done. You'll be expected to manage your own workload, and you won't ever have a project manager breathing down your neck. Our process is front-loaded with in-depth research and discovery rounds in which both developers and designers participate. This keeps scope creep to a minimum and deadlines and budgets realistic. We don't subscribe to unnecessary bureaucracy and keep things streamlined and agile. You'll get to talk to clients too - we all share the successes and the challenges of a project together.
Learning:
The web is constantly evolving, so we expect you to as well. Experimentation and learning new skills is part of the fabric at Onespacemedia. Need some books or course materials? No problem. Want to try out some new techniques on a test project? No problem. Something you want to tell the world about a technology or trend? Blog about it on the website. We expect our team members to be passionate and knowledgeable about their field of expertise.
Lifestyle:
Working at Onespacemedia is fun. We do serious work for serious clients, but that doesn't mean we can't enjoy it. Expect plenty of laughter, music, company lunches, trips to the pub, and impromptu ping pong battles. Just ten minutes walk from the station and ten minutes walk from the centre of Cambridge, the office is located just off Mill Road, the cultural heart of Cambridge (and probably the closest thing you can get to a London street outside of the capital). We're surrounded by green spaces, pubs, shops, and cafés (including the legendary Hot Numbers). We've even got parking spaces.
