Amsterdam based, VC funded startup, Fashiolista looking for new team members

Amsterdam based, VC funded startup, Fashiolista looking for new team members:

Amsterdam, The Netherlands (required on-site)



Over the past months Fashiolista has grown to be one of the largest
fashion communities worldwide. Dividing attention between scaling the
site and creating new features has been quite a challenge. We are
looking for a very experienced django developer to join our team.



About Fashiolista


Fashiolista is best described as “twitter for fashion”. Girls follow
each other’s fashion finds and indicate which items they love. We are
funded by Atomico ventures and several high profile angel investors.



Why you will love working at Fashiolista




  • Young team, startup culture



  • Developers in the founding team



  • The team has been working with Django for more than 4 years



  • Modern stack (Django 1.3, postgres, redis, memcached, jquery,
    celery, solr, GIT)



  • Learning culture


Did I mention we are located in the centre of Amsterdam?



Who we are looking for


We are looking for a talented Django developer with experience in
building highly scalable applications. Since our team is small, strong
experience with Linux or Freebsd system administration would be a big plus.




  • Experienced with Django and Python (> 3 years preferably)



  • Knowledge of SQL and query optimization



  • Javascript experience



  • Test driven development



  • Memcached and other caching techniques



  • GIT


Bonus points for:




  • Knowledge of FreeBSD or Linux system administration



  • Redis/ NoSql experience



  • SOLR experience



  • Postgres Trigger experience



  • Celery experience



  • CS degree


For this position you need to be willing to work in The Netherlands/
Amsterdam. Furthermore the position is full time.



To conclude


We are looking for someone with an excellent work attitude and
considerable experience. It doesn’t matter if you are a student, cum
laude graduate, or drop out, as long as you’re extremely passionate
about what you do. You will be working in a startup and we expect your
input on a wide range of challenges.
