We are looking for a Sr. Python Developer who is interested in solving some of the most pressing problems in our industry such as how to scale the enormous demand for utility computing and how to fit that within the traditional business model of a managed IT offering. With cloud servers being the most basic building block for services that Rackspace will offer, our ability to deliver on features and scalability are paramount.
In addition to our primary goal of building our next generation cloud offering, we are building all the necessary tools and utilities to manage and sustain an ecosystem of users and developers of the Rackspace Cloud Servers platform. CloudFiles, Drizzle, Cassandra and other tools in development will be used.
We are looking for passionate advocates of technology. We're looking for people who don't just use these these tools and services, but people that write them. It is one thing to start a virtual machine on a host, it is another to have the curiosity to read the source code and figure out how it all works.
We are looking to balance the "been there, done that" with the "why can't we do it that way?" mentality of thinking. The ability to challenge assumptions and conventions is important.
