Software Engineer, Instagram Front-end
We are looking for front-end web engineers that can help us build a compelling web presence while maintaining simplicity and usability.

- You will be working closely together with our designers and engineers to continually improve our web experience.
- Our web products are built with Python, Django and Backbone.js.
- Our CSS gets pre-processed by Sass. Experience with these technologies is not necessary, but willingness and excitement to learn them is!
Requirements
- A college degree or equivalent experience in Computer Science, Design or similar field.
- A scrappy, entrepreneurial attitude that gets high-quality projects done quickly.
- Deep understanding, familiarity and skill with programming for the web.
- The ability to pick up new programming languages very quickly.
- Experience and familiarity with Python is a plus, but not required.
- A demonstrated history of intellectual and entrepreneurial exploration.
- Be able to write elegant, readable, and well-documented code.
- The ability to construct solid, structured mark-up as well as writing and working with efficient, flexible and reusable stylesheets is preferred.
