    THE GITPRIME TEAM: 

    GitPrime, now a part of Pluralsight, is a rapidly growing Software-as-a-Service platform that generates data-driven performance metrics for software engineering.  Prior to joining Pluralsight, GitPrime was recognized as the Number 2 best company to work in Colorado 2019. We report on the work patterns and the people-side of software development so engineering leaders can advocate for resources and demonstrate that they're driving business value based on objective data. We have strong product-market fit with hundreds of happy customers and we are growing rapidly.

    JOB DESCRIPTION: 

    This is a high-quality opportunity for an ambitious programmer who wants to focus a career trajectory in the industry. Our stack is React, Python/Django, and Postgres on AWS.  We are looking for very strong app dev with impressive back-end Python skills. When we say “app dev with back-end Python skills” we mean you've written hundreds of thousands of lines of complex Python code over the years in a deployed application used by thousands of end users, not a few dozen deployment scripts used by other engineers on your team. There will be lots of ORM work and lots of complex business logic.

    WHO YOU ARE: 

    • A performer of standard industry duties of a dev: write code, test code, review code, do tickets. Then get it live. 
    • An accountable team member for generally short but impactful meetings and scrums. Stand-ups at least once a week, some communications nearly every day.
    • A travel flexible dev, as some travel may be involved for trips to Durango, CO and/or metro Salt Lake City, Utah, even though the work is inherently remote (if you want to be in SLC, that can be arranged).
    • A full-time worker, with appropriate allowances for life's processes.

    WHAT YOU'LL OWN:

    • Continual improvement - you will be expected to take time to “sharpen the saw” and adjust how you work as you learn more.
    • Continuous Delivery - teams independently ship code to prod every day and your role on that delivery will be a top priority.
    • Customer research - we build what our customers actually want, so your understanding and execution of articulated goals is imperative to the work you will create
    • Applying your experience-  contribute intelligent, forward-thinking, technical decisions to our development process, including implementing new standards, tools, APIs, and workflows.

    EXPERIENCE YOU'LL NEED:

    • Prior experience building software for high traffic platforms, using languages such as Python, but not necessarily limited to that language.
    • Experience with web frameworks and APIs (e.g. Django or other MVC architectures)
    • Developing a back-end product that fully integrates with ReactJS for superior quality UI/frontend experience.
    • Understanding of relational databases, and other types of data stores
    • Significant experience with ReactJS is a must (AWS DevOps and networking experience is a bonus)
    • Experience with automated and unit testing
    • Experience with microservices architecture a plus
