Remote Contractor Senior Django REST Developer
We’re a young team of developers building mobile apps, web apps and Alexa skills for clients in the US, and we’re looking to hire a remote Django REST developer to work about 10 hours per week with the goal of increasing that over time. You can work pretty flexibly around your own schedule, and you’ll only be responsible for back-end Django REST API development, not front-end or unrelated dev ops work (unless that interests you). All front-end development will be handled by a front-end dev using client-side libraries like React or Flutter, not Django Templating. All our leadership are developers, so you won’t be bombarded with unrealistic expectations. You’ll also have help from a junior developer or two when/where needed. Available work will vary depending on client projects, but will increase with time. To learn more, you can email us or visit our site: https://aisoft.dev/. We look forward to you joining the team!
