As a Seattle dweller and an active person, finding a bathroom during a long run or a bike ride is difficult. There are large swaths of the city with no bathrooms. In commercial areas, having to meander through a store to use a restroom is bad for the person trying to use it and the other store customers. Seattle is failing in this regard for all its citizens, not just "street critters".
Agreed that everyone should have access to functional bathrooms and scanning QR codes to do so is silly.
SwiftStack is helping companies deploy and manage petabytes of storage through OpenStack Swift (open source object store). We are looking to hire a developer to work on the SwiftStack Controller -- the management interface for the Swift deployment.
The work involves Swift cluster orchestration, supplying additional features on top of Swift (e.g. metadata indexing, load-balancing, data replication to other object stores), and health monitoring of the deployment.
You will be developing primarily in python. The controller itself is a django application.
We are looking for an experienced developer with a distributed systems background. Python and django knowledge is a plus.
The interview consists of a phone screen and an onsite 4 hour meeting.
