Fenix International | Lead Software Engineer | Kampala, Uganda or San Francisco, CA | http://www.fenixintl.com/ Want to make a real difference in the lives of hundreds of thousands across Africa? Interested in solar power and/or financial services for the developing world? Come work at Fenix! We have a team of 6 Software Engineers and are looking to hire a new Lead Software Engineer who can lead the team (spread across San Francisco and Uganda) in building out our financial platform (a Django web application) as well as a few other software products. We like Django (and Python generally), Node.js, and AWS. We're hiring for either San Francisco or Kampala, Uganda -- if you were based in SF, travel to Kampala a few times a year would be necessary (and weekend trips to go rafting on the Nile and rock climbing in rural Uganda are encouraged!) It really is an amazing company doing really good and important work delivering solar power and financial services to people living off-grid in rural East and West Africa.
