Aspire (<a href="http://aspire.is" >), Full-Stack Software Engineer (Python, Django, JavaScript, Postgres), Washington, DC, Full Time
Aspire is start-up helping companies provide awesome perks experiences to their employees through a simple online platform.
Aspire needs an experienced full-stack engineer to come work with us in our offices in downtown Washington, DC. We're not going to measure your experience in years, we're going to measure it in experience. The bottom line is: have you done it before?
We're obsessed with creating an enjoyable, memorable, and above all highly personalized workplace perks experience for the users of our software. Our engineering team is challenged with building a digital layer around a fundamentally human service. Where the tech and services meet, the interaction must be exceptional.
Our software has to be fast, reliable, and beautiful. It has to "just work" across the wide range of personal and professional devices in use today.
Requirements and Experience:
- You have worked full-stack on a live production system and perhaps built one from scratch.
- You have worked with a distributed and highly available system and perhaps designed and built it yourself or with a team.
- You don't mind being involved in product design. In fact, you enjoy it.
- You are comfortable in many programming languages and use the best one for the job at hand.
- You're familiar with ORMs: their strengths for prototyping and their limits on expression and performance.
- You may not be familiar with the tools we use, but you are smart and capable enough to pick them up quickly and start building.
You'll work hard at Aspire, but it's critical that you take care of yourself. Aspire helps by providing:
- Competitive Salary
- Employee Stock Options
- Insurance: Health, dental, and vision
- Minimum paid vacation policy: You must take off at least 20 days (4 weeks) of work every year. Yes, you read that right!
- Unlimited sick days: No sneezing at work. Take care of yourself and your coworkers.
- Team adventures and perks galore! Delivered through our own software.
- A Better Workplace: Casual, fun, and supportive work environment with all the tools and amenities you need to succeed.
