As primarily a Python/Javascript shop, we welcome polyglots and believe very strongly in open source. We use the right tool for the job. You should be familiar with at least 2 of the 3 requirements below:
## Application Development
You are comfortable working on very external-facing applications in a distributed services oriented architecture.

You live and breathe tests.
## Infrastructure / Systems
You're familiar and comfortable with everything below the application layer. You want to work on performance tuning, database instrumentation, and server architecture. You think, live, and breathe statistics.
## Machine Learning / Data Engineer
You're good with math. Really good. You understand terms like feature extraction, selection, and know what a Euclidean space is. You love linear algebra. People have previously commented about how algorithms are your best friend. You're constantly innovating on how to collect, slice, dice, and analyzing data. You recognize that visualizations are important. You also have a good understanding of how to construct good clean code.
