Balanced is hiring #7

Balanced (https://balancedpayments.com) is hiring software engineers who have a strong experience building distributed systems and service oriented architectures to join our small team of 6 engineers.

We are very interested in how you model a problem, how you think about data, and how you can design for failure -- all while working in an open company. We go into detail about Balanced and our Open Company approach deeper in a recent interview on thechangelog.com: http://5by5.tv/changelog/107

Your friends should classify you as a great problem solver. We expect you to be very proficient in object oriented programming.

We think these are skills that span any programming languages, even though we're primarily a Python shop.

If you think you have what it takes, shoot us some code you've written or any open source work you've done that demonstrates what we're looking for. Ideally, some library with a great API.

Some examples of great pythonic APIs:

- https://github.com/mitsuhiko/werkzeug

We provide all the awesome benefits, however, we're only interested in individuals looking to relocate to the Bay Area - we will pay for moving.

Shoot us an email here: am9icytweXRob24taG5AYmFsYW5jZWRwYXltZW50cy5jb20=

Bonus:

- You know SQL.

- You understand the power of hypermedia in API design.
