Ask HN: Who is hiring? (February 2013)

We are a funded startup looking for Python/Django developers and sysadmins with AWS experience... or ideally someone who ticks both of these boxes. As Fashiolista is growing rapidly, we are on the lookout for new team members who can help us scale the site and keep up with our growth.

Although we are in the fashion industry, a love of fashion is not required. If you love hacking open source applications and scaling high-traffic websites, you'll fit right in. We encourage our team to work on open source projects where possible, and attempt to open source many of the components we build ourselves. We are looking for "T-shaped employees" (a la Valve) who can contribute to a number of areas in the business.

Our stack consists of, among other things: - Django - Celery - SOLR - Redis - Memcached - PostgreSQL - AWS (with heavy use of CloudFormation)

More information is available on our jobs page (http://www.fashiolista.com/jobs), you can also email me directly if you would like to discuss the role futher (email in profile).

Campus Bellhops is expanding from 8 to 90 schools this year, providing flat-rate moving services for college communities. The service is powered by college students who select work from our job board for part-time income and to start developing a professional track record of success. After testing in small markets last year, we are fully-funded and rebuilding the operations from ground zero. (If you visit our site, you will see the old one.) We are currently housed at the Lamp Post Group (venture incubator) under great mentorship and with a handful of other exciting startups in the beautiful Chattanooga, TN. Chattanooga was the first city in the US to have gigabit Internet.

I am the sole developer on the project, and I am looking for a partner to either serve as a strong generalist or take over front-end, back-end, or mobile. Strong sysadmin skills preferred.
