Original posting

Evanston, IL Junior Python 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 stake our business directly on the success of our products, our Clients’ business results, and ultimately, their satisfaction. We offer a competitive salary plus an incentive and benefits package; a close-knit team who likes what they do and has fun doing it; and, if that’s not enough, there’s free all-you-can-drink soda, and free bagels on Fridays. 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 Ops 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 a dynamic language such as Python, Ruby, or PHP; be comfortable working on a *nix command line; and have general knowledge about HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. We're committed to agile and open source; we use packages like mechanize, twill, Selenium, nose, and PyQT every day. If you think you're a good fit for this position, apply with your resume and salary history. kboers (at) leapfrogonline.com
