Substrakt are on the hunt for a creative web developer to join our busy and exciting team.
Initially we are looking to fill a part-time or freelance position, but with an ambition to move to full-time position in the future.
The successful applicant will need to have two or more year’s active developmental experience with Python (2.x). Experience with the Django framework is ideal but not essential. A good understanding of OOP and modern open source web development techniques and technologies (like Apache and SSH) is a must. If you don’t have any Django experience, any knowledge of Ruby on Rails or other MVC based frameworks would be very useful.
Other areas of experience would include:
- HTML5
- CSS
- JavaScript (and AJAX)
- an understanding of accessibility requirements and constraints
- solid experience with databases such as MySQL and PostgreSQL
You will be reporting directly to Substrakt’s Technical Director and part of the wider team containing web design and UX design, graphic design and creative staff.
You will be required to work from Substrakt’s lovely Birmingham office at Fazeley Studios.
The right person for the job will be able to:
- Demonstrate previous experience of working as part of a team
- Work to deadlines and show examples of how they have managed time-sensitive projects
- Demonstrate an ability to contribute to the production of high-standard specification and written material such as wireframes or technical specification
- Show a good standard of client communication skills
- Have experience of the project management tools and methodologies used by agencies
Please send an email to team@substrakt.co.uk with a covering letter, cv and links to your work.
