This is a position on the development of a platform utilising large quantities of data in order to better support authors and help them gain further exposure to their works, encompassing thousands of different books at one time – providing analysis throughout the supply chain, to marketing & sales for domestic markets in the UK, and further abroad internationally.

You’ll be supporting quality development – the business is continuously investing in new applications for technology, and are looking for ways to implement Machine Learning and improving DevOps in their process to further add value to their Authors.

Their overall technology stack includes: Django, Flask, React, MongoDB, PostgreSQL, SQLserver, Docker and is currently being hosted in Azure. They've recently introduced Terraform and will also be moving their containerization to Kubernetes.

On the frontend, they're using Typescript/React.

• Someone with a passion for knowledge, that wants to leverage their skills to help bring the ideas of authors to the wider public.
• 6 - 24 months' experience as a Python Developer.
• Experience in backend web development.
• Knowledge of SQL and working with relational databases.
