We are a uniquely designed talent agency focusing on the technology sector in the Boston, MA area. Our solution is built for engineers tired of the traditional recruiting experience looking for an Agent to represent them in their current search and/or throughout their career.
They search keywords. We know key people.
Job Description:We are working with a brand new travel startup a short walk from South Station to hire a Lead Python Engineer. Founded by travel industry veterans (KAYAK) they are creating a brand new platform to simplify and improve the travel booking experience.
If you’ve traveled recently you must have noticed that regardless of the site you visit you find yourself entering the same information over and over again? This is the tedious experience most modern booking sites provide and they are going to fix it.
The Lead Python Engineer will be responsible for building a fast, scalable, reliable infrastructure to support the business across multiple web properties and mobile devices. This job is for an engineer who likes to build something beautiful that is ‘seen’ by only a few people but used by many. This search is dependant on finding a developer who is comfortable in modern server development and solving problems in other aspects of engineering like DevOps, Data SCience, and Cloud Infrastructure. We are looking for someone comfortable wearing many hats when needed.
The client offers 100% paid medical and dental insurance for both individuals and families. They provide a PPO plan as well so there is no need for referrals to any specialists. They also have a 401k match, give you the ability to choose your equipment (including iPhone 6S and an Apple Watch), and an unlimited vacation policy where you are actually encouraged to get away when needed.
For Engineers interested who have no desire to commute into and out of Boston daily, we do also have an office in Westford and you will be able to work from that space 2-3 days/week.
