Anvil (https://anvil.works) | Senior Developer | Cambridge, UK | ONSITE, VISA | Full-time/part-time/flexible

We make an open-source web framework, an online code editor, a GUI builder, and a PaaS hosting platform. Together, you can build and host a full-stack web application - and all you need is a little Python. (Yes, even the client-side code - we compile Python to JS with a Pythonic GUI framework!)

We’re looking for an experienced all-rounder to work on the core Anvil platform, with a focus on the back-end. Our stack is mostly Clojure, Javascript, Python, Postgres, and container tools – but we're looking for someone who isn't afraid to jump into something you haven't used before.

You’ll be working with other seriously good all-rounders, including the founders (relevant PhDs, kernel contributors, built a dancing fountain for fun, that sort of thing) and senior colleagues (eg: Stu went from teaching Python in maths class to reverse-engineering our drag'n'drop editor in months), as well as our other developers and developer advocates. We're bootstrapped and profitable, with a small, smart, friendly and diverse team.

Building dev tools is great! We're solving problems we've experienced ourselves, our customers are developers just like us, and platforms have the most fun engineering problems.

We work hybrid (in the office Tue-Thu, wherever you like Mon/Fri). If you have questions, I'm a founder and my email's in my profile.

Anvil | Developer Advocate | Cambridge, UK | ONSITE, VISA | Full-time/part-time/flexible | https://anvil.works/jobs

We make an open-source web framework, an online code editor, a GUI builder, and a PaaS hosting platform. Together, you can build and host a full-stack web application - and all you need is a little Python. (Yes, even the client-side code - we compile Python to JS and provide a GUI framework!)

We’re looking for developers with great communication skills, to show people how to build awesome things with Anvil. You’ll be building example apps; writing how-to guides, blog posts and tutorials; presenting Anvil at conferences; and helping our users – from individual developers to huge tech companies – build their applications. And then you’ll help us work out how to improve Anvil for them.

It's rewarding work – developers love being introduced to Anvil (our stand is always crowded[0] at conferences!). Plus, there are all the advantages of a small startup: lots of autonomy and huge impact. You'll be working directly with the founders as well as some seriously talented colleagues.

We're bootstrapped and profitable, with customers ranging from tiny (one-person startups) to enormous (HSBC, Bayer, Deloitte, etc). For a full job description, to hear what it's like working here, and to apply, go to https://anvil.works/jobs.

We work hybrid (in the office Tue-Thu, wherever you like Mon/Fri), and we're not looking for fully-remote colleagues right now, but we can sponsor your UK visa. If you have questions, I'm a founder and my email's in my profile.

1. Senior Developer:

We’re looking for an experienced all-rounder to work on the core Anvil platform, with a focus on the back-end. Our stack is mostly Clojure, Javascript, Python, Postgres, and container tools – but we're looking for someone who isn't afraid to jump into something you haven't used before.

You’ll be working with other seriously good all-rounders, including the founders (relevant PhDs, kernel contributors, builders of backyard dancing fountains) and senior colleagues (eg: a former maths teacher who reverse-engineered our drag'n'drop editor just to build more UI components), as well as our other developers and developer advocates. We're bootstrapped and profitable, with a small, smart, friendly and diverse team.

2. Developer Advocate:

We’re looking for a developer with great communication skills to show people how to build awesome things with Anvil, and to make Anvil better to use.

You’ll be writing how-to guides, blog posts and tutorials, building example apps, presenting Anvil at conferences, and helping our users – from individual developers to huge companies – build their web applications. You’ll then use what you’ve learned to help us make Anvil better to use. That might mean deciding what examples to build, or it might mean deciding that we need to redesign the first-run experience for the Anvil Editor – and then doing it.

It's rewarding work – developers love being introduced to Anvil (we get mobbed at conferences!). Plus, there are all the advantages of an early-stage startup: seriously smart colleagues, small team, lots of autonomy, and huge impact. (Did I mention we're diverse, friendly and supportive?)

This is likely a reference to GitHub, which was DoSed by the Chinese government for hosting a repository that was mirroring uncensored Western media on a domain that could not be blocked by the Great Firewall without hobbling the Chinese software industry.

The attribution wasn't subtle - a substantial fraction of Baidu's ads/analytics traffic served to domestic Chinese users was rewritten to hammer that specific repository directly.

Hi `esafak - can you drop me an email (in my bio)? Might have something for you.
