Ask HN: Who is hiring? (June 2018)

NJF is a large recruiting house. Please respect the guidelines for the monthly Who Is Hiring thread.

Hey all, looking for a web developer to join my team. We're currently 3 devs and a PM reporting to the VP Digital Strategy.

National Journal is a brand owned by Atlantic Media. We build tools for analyzing DC politics, as well as platforms for journalists, marketers, network scientists, and researchers to get their insights out to a pool of members.

Most of our days are spent working in python/django on the backend, javascript on the frontend (we're in the process of building out a more capable FE stack with gulp, react, and a suite of other tools). Other things we work with on a weekly/semi-weekly basis include: PostgreSQL, MongoDB, ElasticSearch, Neo4j, CentOS, Nginx, CDNs, and Selenium.

Some of my favorite things about being part of this team: - Interesting problems to solve - Work-life balance is great (no late nights, and a manageable number of fires at any given time) - Reasonably generous education budget (~1 conference/year, and any tools you need at any time) - Good relationship with the systems team - Lunch outings and board game nights - Smart people who like each other

We're currently looking to fill a more senior role, but also open to the right mid-level candidates. Apply and find out more here: http://atlanticmedia.theresumator.com/apply/ZJ9Csc?
