https://careers.redhat.com/ext/detail?redhat9418
The Fedora Engineering team is looking for qualified candidates to assist us in creating and improving Free Software solutions for the Fedora Community. Fedora only uses Free Software solutions in all of its infrastructure and hosting, and you can help us in that effort. Our infrastructure is mostly driven using Python frameworks, delivering applications and contents over the web to the Fedora user and contributor communities. Travel requirements are minimal, although, participation at relevant conferences and events is expected. This position is a fantastic opportunity to develop new and interesting Free Software and Open Source solutions with a rich community of developers and users. Upstream contributions are an expected part of this position.
Existing team members in this role have created web applications like:
* Bodhi - https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates
* Fedora Packages -https://community.dev.fedoraproject.org/packages
* Fedora Tagger - https://community.dev.fedoraproject.org/tagger
Requirements:
These skills are the sort of skills that are desirable, however, it is not necessary that any candidate possess them all.
* Python
* TurboGears
* SQL Databases (especially Postgresql)
* Xapien
* AMQP
* Linux
* Pyramid
* Javascript
A bachelors degree or greater in Computer Science is preferred for this role, although, not necessary if there is extensive expertise in the desired areas for this position.
Candidates would not necessarily be required to relocate for this position.
If you're interested, please apply on the website, and send me an email telling me why you'd be an awesome fit for this position. I am the hiring manager for this position, so you would get the added bonus of working for me. ;)
