Development is presently done primarily using Python on the server and Adobe Flex/HTML/AJAX as a Rich Internet Application (RIA) frontend. However, like everything in the computing industry, we're constantly evolving how we work. We're always on the lookout for newer and better technologies, and as a result, the technologies we use tomorrow are likely to be different.
This is a full-time telecommute position. The Sr. Software Development Engineer can choose to work in our Boston office, or they can choose to work from at home or from any location in the world.
The Sr. Software Development Engineer will be an individual who has top-notch coding skills, and can demonstrate a aptitude to learn new technologies.
Prior experience with any specific technologies (e.g. Python or Adobe Flex) is not a requirement; we're looking for people with a history of leveraging any technology to create masterpieces.
Prior experience working on web analytics applications, search engines, content management systems or other Web publishing systems is a plus.
Please note, only candidates with a bachelor's degree in computer science or engineering, or, a very substantial amount of related technical coursework and work experience in a related field will be considered.
