[JOB] Looking for a bunch of great Python/Django developers to work in the District

We are looking to add a bunch of great Python (would be great if they have solid Django skills) developers to our direct clients team
in Northwest DC (not far from Metro Center). This is not some boring government contract, this is a cool company in the Media space,
doing great consumer facing stuff on the web. We really need super solid Python folks who have a solid understanding of Object Oriented development.

Our firm is not like all the big body shops/head hunting firms. We are a small nitche contracting/consulting/placement company that does almost all of our work in the
local DC area - and most of the work is in the Media/Web space.  These jobs are mostly full time employee positions working directly for our client, but they can also be contract, or temp-to-hire ... but all will require you to be on-site almost full time in the district.

Below is the more formal job req - but you know who you are. If you're a great Python developer, looking to do cool web development, on a site that
will be viewed by a ton of people (one you'll be excited to tell people you are working for), then you should get back to me asap.

Hope to hear from you soon,
