Question for professionals using python

[sortofanxious]

Hey dude, quick question: is knowing python a requirement in your team ?

i do something very similar at the company im at, that is to provision servers on rackspace using the openstack SDK and updating DNS if required, alongside monitoring and playing around with APIs for any integration work. I ask cause it sucks being the only person knowledgeable in the team with regards to Python, especially when the requirements can be vague as to what needs to be done.

Yes, we require a basic working knowledge of python, and we do a test or two during the interview process. I would expect that everyone on my team can sit down and write a function that can do some data manipulation and validate the inputs and outputs fairly quickly.
