London, UK - full-time. <a href="https://www.arachnys.com" >https://www.arachnys.com</a>
Arachnys is a London-based, pre-Series A startup that aims to solve the problem of finding relevant, accurate business information in emerging markets. Our product gives even small companies the reach of a global intelligence platform, allowing them to find and understand business data even in challenging environments like the Middle East or Latin America, regardless of language, format or source.
We already have meaningful revenues, selling predominantly to enterprises who need to understand more about their counterparties, customers and distributors globally. Our customers range from vast multinationals to small private intelligence outfits.
We are looking for at least two developers to help us accelerate work on the myriad hard problems that we are solving. Currently we are a team of eight - with four engineers - so you would have a huge opportunity to shape the technological future of the company.
Startup atmosphere, real salary, flexible working hours and quality equipment provided.
We are a Python shop so expertise in that (and, inevitably, JavaScript) is a strong advantage (Django is our framework of choice). We have a number of different application components, including multiple distributed applications, so experience orchestrating large numbers of machines with tools like Chef or even Fabric would help. Above all though we want smart, multitalented people who can think for themselves and take pride in their work.
Willing to consider remote applicants only if they can commit to at least 1-2 days/week in London in a normal week.
To apply: email REDACTED_EMAIL to introduce yourself and your Github profile (or some other code you've authored or contributed to).
