Stratasan 

http://www.stratasan.com/

Who We Are

Stratasan is a Nashville-based startup in the healthcare sector that provides reporting tools that derive market intelligence from both public and private healthcare data. For example, we provide reports that show past and future market utilization (e.g., how many patients are expected to have heart problems in zip code 11105?), charges and costs, quality measures, etc.

Why You Should Talk To Us

• We are a startup in the early stages of growth, so your skills and input will have an impact on the company itself (for good or for evil).
• All of our products are on the open-source stack (Python/Django/Postgres/PostGIS), rare in healthcare.
• We do some really neat things with GIS (mapping), if you're into that.
• We concentrate on data (warehousing, analyzing, summarizing, etc), a burgeoning field.

Who We Need

• An enthusiastic developer with prior experience in at least one common web framework (e.g., Rails, Django, CakePHP). Previous experience with Python is obviously preferred, but if you have dabbled in multiple languages and you are willing to learn a new one, we should talk.
• Willingness to write automated tests to prove that your code works. We're not evangelical about TDD, but we are very interested in making our lives a little easier with testing. If you've used Rspec, cucumber, unittest, or PHPUnit, or even Selenium for full-stack testing, then you should be a good fit.
• Some knowledge of SQL (we use PostgreSQL with PostGIS) and document storage systems (we use CouchDB). We would love to find someone that has experience analyzing larger data sets (100GB+).
• Familiarity with DVCS (we use git).
• Strong communication skills are a must.

Where we are : Nashville, TN

Cisco 

http://www.cisco.com/go/security

Location: San Bruno CA

Wanted: Python engineers that want to keep the world safe as part of Cisco's Internet security team

Serious security threats are being introduced by email and web traffic as more than 1 billion new web pages are added every day and countless messages flow around the world. Combined with rapid content churn, this content explosion has created a vast "dark web" that challenges traditional gateway defenses. Cisco's Web and Email Security Appliances address these risks by employing advanced tools including rapid machine learning, acceptable-use policy controls, reputation filtering, malware filtering, data security, and application visibility and control.

We have several development and QA positions open for this growing fun team. This is not an IT position; you will be developing or testing our future web security appliances. Although network security, routing, and firewall experience are nice, we can teach you those. What we're looking for are great software engineers with a thorough knowledge of networking protocols and details of TCP/IP. A general knowledge of HTTP, HTTPS, SOCKS, FTP, RTSP, SMTP, IM, and P2P is also preferred. We are a UNIX shop and most of our development is in Python, with some in Perl, C and C++.

Live in the city without the long commute to Silicon Valley! San Bruno is a short commute from San Francisco, with shuttles to and from BART and CalTrain. With our game rooms and relaxed atmosphere, our site feels like a start-up, but with the money and stability of a large company.
