As you may be aware, I spend the first two weeks of every month in Pune with my client Partecs Participatory Technologies. The company is now hiring. We’re looking for people with (a) good Python skills, and preferably, also Zope and Plone; and (b) User Interface design skills, for web-based interfaces.
Partecs is a well-funded startup that produces software for participative processes like democracy. We use open source extensively and intend to release all our code as open source (we’re not settled on the licensing scheme). The company has offices in Rome, Brussels and Pune.
We’re now hiring for positions in Pune and Bangalore.
If you are interested, please send your résumé to hrd@partecs.com. This address goes to HR person Shobana—my own mailbox is flooded right now—but if you refer to me, I will read it. You will be working with me. Your expected pay is, for once, above industry average. We do not like losing good people over pay squabbles. We also spend significantly on training, and do not have a problem hiring someone without relevant experience but with the ability to adapt quickly.
I’m posting this notice in several places, so when you send in your résumé, please do me the favour of mentioning where you read this, and which of Pune and Bangalore is preferred. Thank you.
If you have a question, please leave a comment, or contact me over email or instant messenger.
Obligatory buzzwords: Python, Zope, Plone, Javascript, XHTML, CSS, Ajax, Usability, Open Source, Affero GPL, Subversion, Blogs, Wikis, vCalendar, i18n, l10n. You’ll work with all these and more.
