[TriLUG] Have a Job[s] - Python, PostgreSQL Development

[John Wheeler]

Hey Trilug,
I have been a follower of ( and very occasional contributor to) the mailing list discussions over the years. After moving further west to Winston-Salem, I don't make it to many Trilug meetings these days. However, when they asked me about professional open source developers, I knew exactly where to go.
I currently work with Inmar in Winston-Salem as Platform Architect, striving to lead a team of developers down a conscientious development path as we build web services, SAS management applications, and consumer web portals in support of the Digital Promotions Network. Our primary development language is Python. Our Primary databases are MySQL and PostgreSQL. We are supported by a talented DevOps team who helps us to leverage AWS stack components where appropriate to improve resilience and scalability. Like all shops we have automation challenges, we have scalability challenges, we have analytic challenges. All honest challenges that require conscientious, seasoned developers to solve and to help shape the future of our product in a competitive space.
Inmar's Digital Promotions Network department is hiring experienced developers to build scalable, RESTful web service applications in Python, deployed onto the AWS infrastructure. You will find the brief job descriptions below. If interested, please touch base with me.
