Hello friends,
My name is Alec Sloman. I’m a technical recruiter at Lookahead Search.
Now, before you get out the pitchforks and chase me off, please let me
explain.
Yes, I have a job to post here. No. I am not the hiring company itself.
I read the rules, and decided to ask for forgiveness rather than
permission, because I think it’s an interesting role.
So you’ve heard of Powershop perhaps?
Yes, well they are currently seeking a Python/Django developer to work
on their internal Australian energy market intelligence systems.
Basically, their analysts have a tool that was developed by contractors
that now needs a full-time maintainer / feature developer.
ATM it’s a Django app that queries a whole bunch of energy market DBs
and provides a nice bootstrappy interface.
Pretty sure it’s hosted on physical machines on premise, ATM, so anyone
who is comfortable rolling that into the cloud, that could be step 1.
Step 2 would be to have lots of discussions with their energy market
analysts and help them make the tool even more useful.
As I’m sure you know, the Australian energy market is kinda… bonkers…
and they’re trying to get a handle on it. This tool is all about
intelligence in that space.
And they’ve got /a lot/ of data to work with.
So other things that are important include:
* SQL (writing lotsa queries)
* Postgres (they maybe want to migrate from MySQL, actually they do ;) )
* R
* General Python-based tooling
* Setup continuous deploy to cloud
If any of that sounds like you, and you are interested to know more,
please email me on [email protected]
I’m @alec_sloman on Twitter, too.
And by the way LARS YENCKEN, if you’re reading this… have a great time
in Stockholm.
I’ll be waiting patiently for you return :’)
Best regards,
Alec
