Same here in Dubai


Namshi.com | Dubai |Sr Backend Engineers & Cybersecurity Engineer | Full-time | Onsite | Visa + Relocation assistance | https://namshi.com Founded in 2011, Namshi is the biggest fashion e-commerce retailer in the Middle East.

My name is Joe, a backend engineer here at Namshi. During the past 2 years, I have really enjoyed working as part of the tech team. In particular, I love: 1- Working with empathetic and smart managers, both technical and non-technical. 2- The various opportunities to make an impact. 3- Opportunities to take ownership. 4- Working as a team where one supports each other. 5- No politics or BS meetings :slightly_smiling_face:

Sr. Backend Engineer

====================

As a Sr. Backend Engineer, you’ll be tasked to work on a spectrum of services ranging from our customer-facing APIs to tools that power our logistics infrastructure. We are a very pragmatic and experienced team, so from time to time, you will see engineers busy TDDing on a feature, whereas at other times we’re straight to live. We pride of being a heterogeneous team that’s experienced to know how and when to abstract.

Security Engineer:

==================

As a Security Engineer, you’ll be tasked with running internal assessments, ranging from pentesting our cloud infrastructure to social engineering around the office, review our security policies and define the best strategy to improve our posture. In addition to that, you will be actively collaborating with external researchers through our HackerOne program, which is going to be directly under your responsibility. On top of this, as the months will go by, you will probably spend time training both our technical and non-technical staff to raise awareness and make sure we got the basics covered.

We have a microservice architecture where we use tools such as Node.js, Python, Go, AWS, Docker, Kubernetes, Google Cloud, React, Redis etc.

To apply please send an email with your resume to work-in-tech@namshi.com. Or you can also email me directly at joe.jean@namshi.com.

I believe it is Python 2.7. But I could be wrong.


Even if it is, it follows conventions compatible with 3.x, e.g. using parentheses with print statements.

Also, in the "Review of Basic Python" chapter, it explicitly links to the official Python 3 docs: http://interactivepython.org/runestone/static/pythonds/Intro...


I currently work as a Junior Developer--straight out of uni-- and I find it really helpful to have someone more experienced review my code and give me feedback. So in your case I would say try to work on open-source projects or just join a team environment.


Yeah, I think that would be the best approach. The only problem being that I live in a country where difference in pay when you work in a local company and if you work freelance is 7-8 folds. Literary. If it were like 2-3 folds I might think about sacrificing that for knowledge but this is just crazy.


Location: Abu Dhabi/Dubai, UAE

Remote: No

Willing to relocate: Yes

Technologies: Python, JavScript, Django, Flask, NodeJS,HTML, CSS. Currently learning React and more.

I use Flask-Admin in production, it is great! It definitely saved me a lot of dev hours. Thanks for this awesome tool.

Mine was corrupted but I fixed it with the following command: "zip -FF VSCode-linux-x64 --out vscode2". I'm on ubuntu 14.04.
