## Key Points

Rate: Competitive with location. Pay may increase further once youve proven yourself.

Hours: full-time or close to full-time.

Location: we are fully remote and you will work virtually.

Timezone: be available at least 50% of 8am-6pm London (the more the better).

## What Will You Do?

Our work focuses on data - collecting, managing, processing and presenting it. Thus, whatever you do with us youll be working with data in some capacity. Our platforms include web applications primarily in python and javascript. We also deploy using standard containerisation technologies such as docker and kubernetes. Key responsibilities include:

- Technical design, scoping, and implementation of data management solutions for clients, using open source software.
- Oversight of technology with a team of developers as part of agile project delivery.
- Communication with project stakeholders about technical delivery, including at times client-facing meetings.

## About Us (Datopian)

We develop data management and integration platforms for governments, companies and NGOs all over the world. Our founder designed and built the worlds most successful open data platform (CKAN), and we have built solutions for dozens of clients ranging from NGOs and governments to multinationals. A lot of our work is open-source and we have a strong emphasis on seeing data used to make the world a better place.

## How are we organized?

We arent like most companies: we are a small, fully remote, virtual team working across multiple time zones. We have a very flat (bossless) structure where youll get to play a major role from day one, use a broad range of tech and learn new skills.
