• This server is written in Python, communicates with clients over TCP sockets using a custom XML protocol and supports a high-availability clustered architecture.


• To meet strong client latency requirements, sockets are handled asynchronously; potentially blocking operations are handed out to work-queue type processes.


• The multi-user, multi-instance nature of the system is handled via a shared object model, the integrity of which is maintained by a sophisticated locking system.


• The successful candidate will work within an established and flexible development framework to extend current functionality and to implement new and exciting features.
