REMOTE (Worldwide) - Senior Open Source Developer on Open edX - React, Python/Django, AWS/OpenStack (OpenCraft - Fully remote company)

Development specialized on the free software project Open edX, used by and in part developed by organizations like MIT, Harvard, McKinsey, and others, so you’ll have the opportunity to contribute to projects that are widely used and to be part of a thriving open source educational community. See edX.org, the MIT Open Learning Library or the French government online platform for public universities for examples of Open edX instances.

We are 35 senior developers, all working remotely from Europe, North & South America, Asia & Australia. The company is not affiliated with edX, but rather contributing and working with them on various projects. This is a full time position, where you would be able to work remotely from anywhere you want, as long as you have a good internet connection. : )

The Open edX platform is a large Python/Django codebase, with good code standards and architecture. You would work on different clients contracts using the platform. The clients list/references include Harvard, MIT, edX themselves, the French government, and various startups & universities currently running their own instances, or looking to create one. Tasks are very varied, from developing core platform features, custom exercises and tools for specific courses (XBlocks), customizing and deploying instances, working fullstack, operating our service infrastructure, improving our hosting platform, etc. You won't get bored here.

Most of your work is published as free software (Open edX is released under the AGPL license, which requires clients to release modifications under the same license), and you would also contribute to the free software project, pushing most of your developments upstream through pull requests, contributing features, documentation or help on mailing-lists.

We welcome applicants of all genders and ethnicities.

You can read more about how we work in our handbook, at https://handbook.opencraft.com/

Stack: Python/Django, Ansible, AWS/OpenStack, React, Debian/Ubuntu, MySQL, MongoDB, PostgreSQL, RabbitMQ, Redis, Elasticsearch, JS, HTML/CSS.

Nice to haves: Terraform, Vault, Packer, Prometheus, ELK, Docker, Android/iOS. We are building a modern infrastructure and having a strong DevOps presence on top of core software engineering skills is a big plus with us.

Interview process: a 30 minutes Hangout with a (simple) coding exercise.

Roadster | Backend & Fullstack Engineers | Palo Alto, San Francisco, or remote

Roadster is modernizing the process of buying a car. Our customers are car dealers who had to close their showrooms and move their business online when the pandemic hit. Now we have thousands of customers who are selling online using Roadster: we host the consumer website, list vehicle details, quote up-front prices, gather your credit, and our dealers deliver new or used cars to your home. As the showrooms reopen, we are running on iPads and kiosks and bring the same modern experience into the store. Buyers save hours and dealers sell more cars with fewer sales agents.

Roadster is looking for full-stack software engineers to join our team of 13 developers in a 140+ person company. We focus obsessively on both the consumer experience as well as building the most complete and accurate content and workflow for automotive transactions.
