Datapane is looking for an exceptional Django engineer to join our team.

This includes working on:

• The main Django application, a large, modern, Django app built using Python 3.7 and the latest Python and Django libraries;

• The API, built using Django Rest Framework (DRF) that is used both by our web-app and client libraries to build and run data analyses;

• Frontend code, from Django-rendered HTML5 and CSS3, to JavaScript/TypeScript which interfaces with small, focused React components where necessary

Ideally, you should have experience working on Django codebases which serve both server-side rendered pages and APIs via DRF. Familiarity with modern development practices, such as CI/CD, testing, DevOps, Docker, Linux and git would be a big plus. You must have very strong familiarity with Python development, and be excited to pick up the new technologies and skills - for instance we use Python type-hints and Typescript across our codebase extensively.

Datapane is an ambitious project that's the result of several disciplines, involving orchestrating workloads of multi-million row datasets, operating a HA PaaS that can also be deployed on-prem, and working with tools from the big data ecosystem, such as Apache Arrow and Pandas.

You should like the idea of releasing to real customers regularly, and prioritise getting a great product into users’ hands for feedback and iteration. You will have extensive scope to build and architect the backend, and grow the team in the future.
