Description: Are you a talented Perl programmer with Rust experience looking to work for a cutting-edge enterprise tech publisher that’s at the forefront of the industry? Look no further than our client, a renowned publisher that provides unique news and stimulating perspectives on the enterprise tech that powers businesses across the globe.

As a Perl programmer, you’ll be responsible for managing the full life-cycle of software projects, from consultation with the business to designing, developing, and testing code.

You have great Linux experience and are familiar with common UNIX tools. Experience with templating systems, Apache and nginx, and working with both MySQL and PostgreSQL is a bonus.

Our client’s tech team is small, distributed, focused, and autonomous, and they favour open-source tools.

If you’re a talented Perl programmer who has Rust experience and a passion for delivering high-quality work, we want to hear from you! Join a team of exceptional professionals and help shape the future of enterprise tech publishing.
