About the Role

Responsibilities
You will be responsible for development of a server application for the transmission and basic processing of meteorological data intended for civil national meteorological institutions, international organizations, military forces, and airports worldwide.
The application consists of several core processes running 24/7, which are monitored and controlled either through a desktop user interface or via a REST API. The application is cross-platform (Linux, Windows).

- Python language (at least on intermediate level)
- Experience with software development in a team (e.g. in corporate environment, as part of an open source project)
- We are only looking for people interested in long term employment.
