That makes much more sense, the job posting seemed more likely a fit for internal user interface tools. Python certainly is a good fit there, but adding in the parts about touching the rocket code seems... well I just can't comprehend the idea of running Python on a rocket at launch time. Then again, maybe all the cool rocket systems will start having REST APIs. ;)
`curl -X POST rocket10.falcon-9.spacex.com/engine/ignite -d '{"countdown": 10}'`
Would both be amazing and terrifying!
P.S. @parent: I admire the work y'all are doing, Dozbog!

you don't need the `-X POST`, because `-d` will do a post by default :)
all the systems AND PARAMETERS are redundant in such mission...
