Responsibilities * Writing and maintaining Ruby scripts to create and deploy new infrastructure to AWS. * Writing and maintaining Chef cookbooks, roles and environments. * Building, maintaining, and deploying Java web apps (Spring framework, Hibernate) * Building, maintaining, and deploying JavaScript web apps (Express, WebSockets) * Building, maintaining, and deploying Python web apps (Django) * Honing your skills in advanced database analysis/optimization Skills & Requirements * Commercial software development experience, using Java/Python/Go/PHP/Ruby/similar, and MySQL. * Nice to have: experience with payment systems * Nice to have: experience with NoSQL systems * Nice to have: designing services for mobile clients (and/or building those clients yourself) If this sounds like thing of wonder to you, send your resume to jobs.engineer@picmonkey.com
