Junior Python Test Engineer at Leapfrog Online
We're the leading independent digital direct marketing firm in the country, developing programs for Fortune 500 marketers to find and convert the right customers. We build complex app ecosystems with frameworks like Django and Rails sitting on top, with a mound of open source software supporting them.
We're looking for a junior-level Python Developer to join our Test Engineering team, writing functional, integration, and unit tests in Python for our Django-powered business platform. As part of the Operations team, we also do light system administration and help write monitoring tools.
Requirements: an intense attention to detail, a love of learning, a passion for problem-solving, and a good attitude and sense of responsibility. You should also have experience with Python (or be willing to transition from another dynamic language like Ruby or PHP); be comfortable working on a *nix command line; and have general knowledge about HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. Experience with mobile device testing is a plus.
We're committed to agile and open source; we use packages like mechanize, twill, Selenium (including Selenium Grid), and nose every day.
Interested? If so, we offer a competitive salary plus an incentive and benefits package, and a close-knit team who likes what they do and has fun doing it. If you think you're a good fit for this position, apply with your resume and salary history. kboers (at) leapfrogonline.com
