Lead Designer at Everyme (YC S11)
Everyme is the best way to keep in touch (https://everyme.com). We are looking for an extraordinary designer who has designed for mobile devices and the web. Experience with HTML/CSS is NOT necessary. You will be paid market salary and you will have generous equity. You will be treated like a god and your designs will be followed to the pixel. You will work with a team of 5 amazing engineers. Last month we hired a web engineer from the who's hiring post.
Please email me at vibhu@everyme.com with your portfolio.
The Everyme guys are one of the most impressive early stage mobile companies - in terms of product and founding team - I have seen for a long time. They've sold millions of iPhone applications in the past and now they've raised money from Greylock (Facebook) and Andreessen Horrowitz (Jawbone, Fab, etc) and dozens of other investors to take over the world.
If I were a designer (which I am) and were looking to join a company that was going to create a gorgeous product that has a significant chance to become the next Facebook, I'd join these guys in a beat.
Sift Science is aimed at bringing machine learning to the masses. Our initial product is an API to detect online fraud. Last year, there was $2.4B in credit card fraud, 70% of it from organized crime, and it literally kills companies (see http://techcrunch.com/2011/11/10/brandstack-heads-for-the-de...). We're using large-scale classification techniques, paired with elegant visualization tools, to catch fraudsters before they make off with our customer's cash. Our pilot customers are technically savvy and highly motivated to work with us as we develop our beta product.
We're a team of ex-Google and ex-Zillow engineers who previously worked on speech recognition, ads targeting, payments, sentiment analysis, and more. We're backed by top angel investors who "get it." We like to laugh, push each other, and we do fun events with other companies in the broader San Francisco startup community to keep things fresh.
If you have expertise or passion for any of the following fields, we want you: * Machine learning (including applications like computer vision) * Natural language processing * Data management (e.g., large-scale databases, map reduce, data fusion, data mining, etc.) * Data visualization

LucidChart is an HTML5 diagramming application that proves web apps don't need to be pale imitations of their full-featured desktop counterparts. Real-time collaboration and full versioning history aren't our only advantages; users tell us they like LucidChart because it's faster, easier, and smoother than Visio and Omnigraffle.
We need great engineers who want to work in a Silicon Valley startup, but would rather live 15 minutes from the ski resorts in Utah. We have one of the largest Javascript codebases on the Internet supporting LucidChart's client, and are using Scala, PHP, node.js, MongoDB, and MySQL to power our servers. Experience in one or more of these areas is helpful, but we're most interested in people with inhuman problem solving skills.
We currently have 9 full-time employees, including 6 engineers. That ratio reflects the focus of our organization -- we are a software company, and we live or die on the strength of our engineering team. We think we have the strongest engineering team in Utah, and want to add at least 3-5 people this year.
All hires are made by unanimous decision of the current team. If you join us, you can know that everyone here wants you here.
Send resumes, github profiles, or whatever else might be relevant to jobs at lucidchart dot com.

Our product is an adaptive learning platform, which means we use machine learning and "big data" techniques to deliver an individualized education to each student. Our eventual goal is to make a high-quality, adaptive education available to everyone in the world. The product is used by Arizona State University right now, and we recently signed a deal with Pearson to power many of their products.
Our code is a mix of Python, Java, and Scala. Most of our existing code is in Python, but we're working to scale up in a major way, which involves a migration to the JVM. Currently this involves a mix of Java and Scala, but our long-term goal is to move toward Scala. Consequently, we're really hot for Scala talent right now. Anyone who has experience taking Scala into production we would love to talk to right now.
You can reach me at knerd83 at gmail.com, and I'm a software engineer so I'll be able to answer any of your technical questions (e.g. why we're interested in Scala). Reach out if any of the following interest you:
* Using technology to democratize education.
* Machine learning and data mining, including approaches such as probablistic graphic models (PGMs), Support Vector Machines (SVMs) and Monte Carlo Markov Chains.
* Functional programming (cf. Scala and Python).
* The Java Virtual Machine (JVM) internals and performance optimization.
* NoSQL databases (Cassandra and Redis).
* Thrift (the RPC protocol).
* Cloud computing (Amazon Web Services, Unix) and distributed systems.
Yes to the first, no on the second.

We're working on some seriously hard and interesting problems, and need help with it. Our product is still in private beta but the demand is crazy and we already need to scale fast, and as one of our first engineers you'll have a strong impact on the code and product. We can guarantee a fun ride.
We're very small but are well backed by the best-of-the-best so you get the best of both worlds: an amazing team, generous equity, a competitive salary and health/dental. A fully stocked kitchen, team-cooked lunches, new computer/monitor and team trips to Vegas make up the rest of the package.
Shoot me an email at stefano [4t] betable.com if you're interested.
Our mission is to provide a world-class education to anyone, anywhere. We already have millions of students learning every month, and we're growing quickly.

We're just getting started feeding this data we're collecting back into the product to help our users learn more (http://david-hu.com/2011/11/02/how-khan-academy-is-using-mac...). If you're interested in data, analytics, and education, this is a dream gig.
Plus, it's one of the highest educational impact positions you can imagine. We're hiring all types of devs -- mobile, frontend, backend, whatever you want to call yourself. Big plans ahead.

We're growing in revenues and customers rapidly. We really need strong engineering talent but keeping our hiring bar high.
We're going to win because we can move more quickly than our competition: - weekly releases - deep in-house analytics team - not wedded to specific technologies - only as much process as necessary - open and transparent communication across teams and from executive management - constant learning
Salary, benefits, perks are excellent. http://www.yammer.com/jobs
TRUECar.com - TrueCar shows consumers how much people actually paid for a particular new car in their area, then guides them to dealers we've certified. When someone buys from a dealer we've sent them to, we get paid. We already have solid revenues, are well funded and and are growing rapidly. We need lots of technical talent to help us grow.
* JAVA - We are looking for Java architects to design and build the technology used to power our production websites, APIs, widgets, and internal tools. This is a chance for you to join a growing company and build something that's going to scale to support millions of users/visitors and provide them with all kinds of data.
* Python/Django - Our main site is in Django, which means we need serious talent to help it scale and expand as we continue to grow. Plus, you'll get to work with me.
* We also have other technical positions for Front End, Senior Linux Systems Engineer, QA engineer, Java developers and more. If you're local (in and around Santa Monica) and interested, let me know (email is in profile).
* We also have some non-technical openings for senior positions in marketing, customer retention, HR, finance and accounting. Email me for details.
My story - moved from Atlanta all the way out to Santa Monica after stopping by the TrueCar booth at PyCon 2011. I started here three month ago and love it. I'm working with a great team that knows how to develop software and for management who seems to "get it" with regards to software developers.
The Python team in an open workspace that has a view of the ocean (http://picplz.com/user/dabent/pic/tpc4v/), and all the Santa Monica offices are blocks from the beach. They have great benefits, including company equity, 100% paid family medical, dental, vision, and a healthy 401k. They also offer gym membership reimbursement ($50 a month), 12 holidays, career training, 3 weeks PTO and have a kitchen stocked with fruit, snacks and such. I've honestly never had a job this good. If you're interested, send me your resume. My email is in my profile.

Remote work is fine, but Providence, RI area is preferable (or, a willingness to consider relocation eventually; though to be clear, for the right person this isn't a requirement at all).
We're a small design driven development company working exclusively on Django projects. Very flexible work environment, bonus options, etc. We are not a funded startup, we're bootstrapping ourselves. We have a large fluffy dog as the office mascot!
Must enjoy, or tolerate, a wide variety of musical genres and styles.

Centzy is Kayak for local services - comparison shopping for everyday local services like haircuts, dry cleaners, and oil changes. It's a large, untapped market, and we are funded by great investors who share our passion: Lightbank (Groupon's original investor) and ffVC (Klout's original investor).
We are a team of two (one hacker, one business guy with a CS degree) and we are looking for another hacker. As our first hire, we would consider you a late co-founder and expect as much. You'll get serious product ownership with real equity and a salary. You'll be the third leg of the tripod.
We're looking for someone who has built and scaled products on the Ruby / Rails stack in the past. You've probably worked at a startup if not started one. You are smart and relentlessly resourceful. You'll spend most of your time crafting code in Ruby and Javascript, so you should love it. We think hackers should drive product, so you should be comfortable doing this. You've probably at least dabbled in MongoDB and Node.js.
We have great shared startup space in the Lower East Side with tons of great food and bar options nearby. In addition to equity and salary, you'll get your choice of equipment and we'll cover 100% of your health benefits, and lunches and dinners while you're working. And of course the fridge will always be stocked with soda and great micro brews.
Why us: - Product is something you'd use (we let consumers use their existing credit/debit cards as loyalty cards at local businesses) - Seed funding already closed (recently... so we have runway) - You'd be the third person on the team so there's plenty of equity to work with - We're currently in the Entrepreneur's Roundtable Accelerator program (http://eranyc.com) - CTO has 12 years software dev experience, 6 years managing tech teams. He's an awesome mentor (and generally awesome guy). Among other things, he managed the team that built Australia's largest Ruby on Rails application. - CEO is a Stanford grad with 6+ years direct experience in our industry - Ability to shape corporate culture. We tend to be disciplined and professional about the stuff that matters and very casual/flexible about the stuff that doesn't. - Our main stack is Rails 3.1, MySQL (moving to MongoDB soon), jQuery, and HAML. - Looking to build out our iOS and Android platform. If you have experience here, you'd be in charge of this.
Ideal candidate: - 2-3 years full time dev experience in Ruby (will consider light Ruby experience or more junior if you're a solid fit and eager to learn) - Smart / raw talent / logical thought process important - Entrepreneurial hustle - basically someone that wants to contribute a lot to LocalBonus and then be CTO/Founder of their own company after this.

Full-time preferable; part-time or intern possible.
We’re a startup based in Carlton. We’re working on a web/email app that makes it easier to write documents with other people. It automatically keeps track of what changed and who did the work, without requiring people to modify how they currently do things, whether it be by passing attachments around by email or by sharing documents in dropbox. It’s not launched yet.
Design is really important to us and you’ll be our first dedicated designer. (Right now our team is approximately 4 developers and a business guy.) We’re running into lots of design challenges and need someone to take the lead on these, in addition to designing the overall experience. As an example, this week we are thinking about how to show the changes between two Word documents in a clearer way than the Word compare view (which is horrible!).
We dream of hiring a junior version of Ryan Singer. We want someone who’s quite analytical about the design process. Regarding technical stuff, you need to be able to work in HTML and CSS, have a good understanding of what’s possible to do with Javascript, and know or be willing to learn git.
Get in touch with me (ben@contextualsystems.com) with any questions, or send a CV and link to your portfolio to apply. I’ll put a more detailed job ad up at http://contextualsystems.com/jobs/ soon.
As we principally focus on the web, we look for real-world experience using Python application frameworks (such as Django) to build high-traffic web sites and applications. Experience with other languages is welcome. What are the extras we look for? Experience producing and consuming web services (SOAP, REST, XML-RPC); experience working with message-oriented systems (AMQP or other message, pub-sub and task queues such as Celery); deep knowledge of version control systems (especially Mercurial or Git); an interest in non-RDBMS data stores (CouchDB, MongoDB, Redis); knowing what it really means to develop RESTful applications; and, experience with functional and declarative programming models in addition to object-oriented development.
If you're a bright, self-motivated engineer who enjoys using open source software to solve interesting problems, you’re our kind of programmer, and we’d like to talk to you. You can apply on our site, where you'll also find full job descriptions and information about Leapfrog Online: http://www.leapfrogonline.com/who/careers/
Cloudera is hiring for everything. Lots of cool distributed systems problems to solve, plus some unique opportunities like being a trainer--live anywhere, travel all over for free.
I interned there last summer, and I was totally blown away. Everyone there is brilliant, and they get to work on technical problems that are at their level, not just making another webapp.
And they're completely exploding. They're aggressively establishing themselves as the Hadoop company. They just signed a big deal with Oracle that should help legitimize them even more in the places that matter (ie. with big companies that are willing to pay big money): http://www.cloudera.com/blog/2012/01/oracle-selects-cdh-and-...
The culture is great. Fun people to be around, they really appreciate that taking care of engineers is vital to the company's success, management is deeply technical all the way up to the CEO, and they have regular all-hands meetings where they say just about anything you could want to know about the company.
I was so impressed that I've kept working on-and-off when I have the time, and I convinced my brother to apply and take a job there.

About Us
Cloudbot is backed by Lightbank (Groupon Founders), AngelPad, Hyde Park Angels and Draper & Associates. We are building a mobile and web app that pulls each user's online presence into one simple user interface. Cloudbot helps manage the profiles, contacts and activities users maintain across multiple applications by bringing all of their social activity together into a single hub.

In addition, Cloudbot's universal address book and integrated social connections make it easy to call, email, send a Facebook or LinkedIn message, post a tweet, share a document via DropBox or GoogleDocs, schedule a meeting, and more.
We are currently in the process of building out our next generation Cloud based sports pricing platform.

We are analogous to a high frequency trading firm, buying page views to serve ads on behalf of advertising agencies in real-time on exchanges like that of Google or Yahoo. Our server software runs on Spring, MySQL, Redis, and AWS at a glance. We handle about a billion page impressions a day. Big data, big throughput.

We're a bit different than your average startup. We're a small team that loves what we do. We only hire others who love what they do, too.
Even though we're very profitable, we don't hire just for the sake of it; we hire the best people, then trust them: it's the thinking behind our no-limit vacation policy and company credit card for everyone.
We love building things and we focus on being productive, not the amount of time you spend in the office. We hate meetings, so we only have one per week.
We put a lot of effort into making Weebly a fun place to work for people who like getting things done.
Our millions of users love us (check out our blog comments). We have a net promoter score over 80% (higher than Apple's).
Running 2% of all of the websites on the Internet presents some interesting technical challenges. Making a complex task super simple and intuitive is also an ongoing challenge.

Factual's vision is to be an awesome and affordable data provider, so that developers, startups, and big companies can focus on innovation instead of data acquisition. We believe in openness and transparency rather than proprietariness and obfuscation.

In late 2010, we raised a Series A from Andreessen-Horowitz, and our customers and partners include Facebook, Newsweek, Loopt, and Blekko. We have lots of challenging problems to work on at all layers of the stack: data cleaning and canonicalization, deduping, storage, serving, APIs, etc. If you love data, Factual is the place to be.

Like hacking on 3rd party APIs? Good, because we build on Dropbox, Google Docs, Facebook, Twitter, Gmail, with plans for many more. Interested in file transfer and sync? We’re making moving files in the cloud fast and reliable. Search? We’re building search across the stuff in your clouds. Realtime? You can head up our plans to move from asynchronous polling to a socketed system.
Things we're looking for ----
* Good architecture skills with a focus on details, experience with fault-tolerance, use of message queues, etc. * Experience with small or cross-functional teams (startup experience would be nice). * Solid understanding of computer science fundamentals, e.g. data structures, time complexity, algorithms. * Comfort with statically-typed languages, knowledge of OOP. * Security-mindedness, with the ability to identify and defend against threats and vulnerabilities. * Experience with Amazon Web Services would be nice.

Designer & Front-end Developer at Newspaper Club.
We help anyone make and print their own newspapers. We believe the web is too important to be left to screens, and that newsprint is a highly evolved technology too. We build things that combine the two, using each medium for what it's best at.
We're looking for a great designer + front-end developer to work alongside our co-founder and engineer (me, @tomtaylor) and form the start of a tight knit development team.
We want to overhaul our existing in-browser newspaper layout tool + API, launch a print-on-demand marketplace, and develop a number of products and services that use completely personalised newsprint in smart ways.
Things like the Postcode Paper we built for Data.gov.uk. http://blog.newspaperclub.com/2009/10/16/data-gov-uk-newspap...
Or the prototype Telepaper, which turns Readability + Instapaper content into a delivered newspaper. http://telepaper.newspaperclub.com/
You'll need to be able to go from sketches and conversation, to working code in browser yourself. We like generalists who can think both like designers + engineers, with a good sense of product intuition. Someone who can code their own designs, and enjoys working closely with a backend engineer.
Bonus points if you have a solid understanding of how to build well structured Javascript web apps, using frameworks like Backbone.
You've probably got a few years experience working on public sites, either for yourself or others, and can show us sample projects you've worked on. We value code over experience, so show us what you've done.
We run a small, friendly ship, in a relaxed environment we share with interesting folks in Shoreditch. We've got a proven business model, and are generating real, actual, genuine profit, with very little investment. We're doing this on our terms, and building the kind of organisation we'd like to work for.
All of which, I'll be honest, completely astounds me.
In return, we can offer a competitive package of salary and equity, in varying proportions.
If you're interested, drop us a line at jobs@newspaperclub.com, with a note about yourself and links to things you think we'd find interesting (eg. Github account, CV, portfolio).

Academia.edu is a platform for academics to share research papers. The company's mission is to accelerate the world's research.
It's widely held that science is too closed, and too slow. We are trying to change that. We believe that faster sharing of research will lead to an acceleration in research innovation: faster innovation in medicine, biology, engineering, economics, and other fields. Faster sharing in biology and medicine, for example, could lead to cancer being solved 12 months before it otherwise would have been, which would lead to millions of lives being saved.
Academia.edu has over 950,000 registered users, and over 3 million monthly unique visitors. Both of these metrics tripled in 2011. Over 4,500 papers are added to the platform each day, and over 3,000 academics join each day.
We need talented engineers to come and help us accelerate the world's research. We believe that there is a chance to make a big impact.
We just raised $4.5 million from Spark Capital and True Ventures http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=3297812. Some of our angel investors include Mark Shuttleworth (founder of Ubuntu) and Rupert Pennant-Rea (Chairman of The Economist).
We have a strong engineering culture. We're a 6 person team based in downtown San Francisco. The site is Rails, and other technologies we use include PostgreSQL, Redis, Varnish, Solr, Memcached, Mongodb, Beanstalkd.
Familiarity with our technologies is a plus, but it's not essential. It's far more important that you are a quick learner who can pick up new technologies quickly. There is more information about the company on our hiring page, at http://academia.edu/hiring.
The kinds of things you would be working on include:
★ building new features (a conference feature, a discussion feature for papers)
★ enhancing existing features (News Feed, Profile page, paper upload tools)
★ building back-end infrastructure to scale the site
What we're looking for are:
☀ 2+ years of web development experience
☀ Experience with the full engineering stack
☀ Passion for engineering
All the strategic decisions in the startup are made collaboratively, whether they are about hiring, new feature development, user growth, user retention, funding, or revenue. You can participate in those general startup decisions as much or as little as you want. We have found that our decisions are much better as a result of everyone contributing to them. If you like having an impact, you will enjoy the Academia.edu culture. There is more information here http://academia.edu/hiring.
H1B candidates are very welcome. We will take care of the visa process.
If you are interested to learn more, please email Richard Price at richard [at] academia.edu

INTERN OR FULLTIME in SAN FRANCISCO, CA
I'm a full-stack web developer at Yelp, and I definitely recommend the hell out of working here. We've still got the startup environment (kegs, dog, etc); we're located in downtown San Francisco, half a block from MoMa; we are in a unique position to do great stuff and solve hard problems while helping people find great local businesses.
I built our "Hot New Businesses" feature - http://yelp.com/openings/sf , for instance, you can find it on the homepage and in our mobile apps too - which crunches through our data nightly and generates a list of the most recently opened bars and restaurants in your city, complete with predictions of the day they opened on. It's a really useful feature, and we have so much data that I was able to build it without knowing anything about machine learning, data-mining, etc; imagine the crazy-useful stuff you could do here, if a knucklehead like me could make a feature like this.
For more info about what it's like to work here as an engineer, see a Q&A with me at http://officialblog.yelp.com/2011/07/day-in-the-life-of-a-ye... , or feel free to contact me at jrheard at yelp dot com.

Web Developer
☆ Develop cool and useful features for our 61M+ monthly visitors
☆ Expertise in JavaScript, HTTP, HTML/DOM, and CSS, as well as server-side chops in a language like Python, Ruby, Java, C++, etc. We're on Python, but we're just looking for people who are really good at programming, so no worries if you don't have much Python experience.
Search and Data-Mining Engineer
☆ Tackle machine learning and information retrieval problems from our database of 22M+ Yelp reviews
☆ Strong grasp of algorithms and data structures; expertise in Python, Java, or C++
Back-end Engineer
☆ Build whole systems that are simple and scalable
☆ Expertise in your favorite modern programming language: Python, Ruby, Java, Objective-C, or C++ Mobile Developer
☆ Create fun and useful mobile applications for the iPhone, Android, Blackberry platforms and beyond

Join the team of happy hackers at PipelineDeals! We’re looking for a talented junior/mid-level Rails developer preferably in the Philly/NYC/DC area, but remotes are welcome as well.
Perks:
- Work at a well-established small company that’s 5 years old, bootstrapped, profitable, and proud!
- Join a tightly-knit small team of very talented coders to help drive the product.
- We are very progressive with the technology we use. Chef, kiji-ruby, authlogic, Backbone.js, etc. We implement the things we find promising, and encourage all developers to help bring ideas to the table. Let your voice be heard and your opinion be respected!
- Our team is very test- and spec-driven. We typically use a peer-review model to ensure that none of us are going off the deep end with a solution. We are striving towards continuous deployment. We have our CI server run our test suite upon each push to the remote repo. We measure almost everything.
- You are encouraged to contribute to open source, and we have open source Fridays!
- Relish in the fact that the projects you will be working on will be used directly by thousands of our customers worldwide!

A lot of people think Splunk must be a terrible place to work at because they think it is an "enterprise" company. But the truth is, we have great jobs for a lot of people. Want to work on awesome visualizations for gigabytes and terabytes of data daily? We got it. Want to work on building a development platform for an extremely powerful data analysis tool? We got it. Want to help make the core server that powers our extremely fast indexing and performance better? We got it.
For example, my project for the past couple of months has been to develop our new Node.js/Browser SDK, including pulling some of our propietary UI components and sharing them with the world. We also do a lot of work with customers to best help them use Splunk. One of the projects I was involved in included analyzing social data using Splunk (like Twitter/Foursquare).
Whether it's UI, core systems engineering, dev platform or anything in between, we likely have something for you. I personally work on the development platform in the Seattle office, but I'm happy to answer questions about anything. Feel free to shoot me an email (in my profile), or comment here.
I wanted to highlight a few specific positions we're looking for:
* Dev. Platform Software Engineer: This is the team I work on. We strongly believe that there is a use for Splunk outside of logging, and we're enabling the usage of the technology for dealing with large quantities of data, whether it's for social network analysis, cloud management or anything in between. http://www.splunk.com/view/SP-CAAAGK3?jvi=oHkCVfwi
* Frontend engineer: We're trying to present a lot of data (some might even call it big data :) in a human-understandable manner. Help us implement the next wave of visualizations: http://www.splunk.com/view/SP-CAAAGK3?jvi=okO3VfwQ
* UI/UX Designer: For many of our customers, they spend a great deal of their day in our web UI, and even more importantly, they spend time there when something is going wrong and they want to find out what. Help us make the UI/UX as easy and intuitive to use as possible: http://www.splunk.com/view/SP-CAAAGK3?jvi=okQ4VfwT
* Cloud Software Engineer: we're developing the next stage of our product, which is a hosted version of Splunk in the cloud, with all the benefits you'd expect (like automatic elastic scaling). Come help us make this a reality: http://www.splunk.com/view/SP-CAAAGK3?jvi=o4U8VfwL
* Hadoop Software Engineer: Usage of Hadoop is exploding to do batch-oriented processing on massive quantities of data. We think there is a lot of value to be had by combining the power of Splunk and Hadoop, and we're developing solutions to make this possible. http://www.splunk.com/view/SP-CAAAGK3?jvi=oqCaWfwS
* Software Engineer in Test: Splunk is a complex machine, deployed in a distributed manner, many times being used for different things. Our testing team is top notch, and helps us deliver quality releases. http://www.splunk.com/view/SP-CAAAGK3?jvi=o5ZvVfwe
Senior UX Engineer
Want to change the world? Love creating awesome user experiences? Keep reading.
THE MISSION
Swipely revolutionizes how local merchants do business, arming them with innovative technology that puts the clunky, archaic systems used by big retailers to shame. We're the Robin Hood of business, disrupting the payment space to enable the little guys to do what only the big guys can, and then some. We interact directly with both merchants and their customers, impacting the personal experience on both sides in deep, meaningful ways. We turn rewards and loyalty upside-down (or, as we see it, rightside-up!) by giving points and discounts to customers through their credit card, without the need for special cards, mobile apps, bar codes, or anything else that gets in the way of the experience. We analyze every payment transaction, providing intuitive reports and automated tools for merchants that use them to grow and deeply engage their customers. And that's just the beginning of the possibilities with our passionate team, unique resources, and mission to make our merchants successful!
THE OPPORTUNITY
Combine a world-class front-end team with a powerfully creative atmosphere, and you get a compelling culture that liberates us all to envision and realize innovative product ideas every day. You will push your own limits of what you think is possible with a user experience. You will propose and refine new concepts, comps, technologies, and solutions, and get the support needed across the company to realize the untapped potential we have yet to discover. You will work with top sales, marketing, and product talent that deeply values innovation and the engineers that drive it.
Evolution is our greatest ally. We built the first incarnation of Swipely with jQuery, experimented with Backbone yet quickly realized we needed more structure, and now cruise on YUI3, with YUI3.5 around the corner. We rock MVC-driven, single-page applications, fully templatized Handlebars views, restful JSON persistence to our Rails backends, frontend unit and integration tests, and (soon!) a pushState architecture with hot data visualizations.
We always track and contribute to new technologies like D3, Node.js, Ember, Harmony, CoffeeScript, and Less. Exploration and collaboration are part of our culture, and any topic that can improve our engineering efforts is fair game, including NoSQL storage, Nginx/Unicorn architecture, and deployment and continuous integration tools.
THE REQUIREMENTS
You love what you do. You wake up every day more passionate about the web’s IxD models and UX than the day before. You demand the highest quality of your projects and want to work with people who demand and inspire the same, from the code down to the pixels. You get energized when opening new Fireworks and Photoshop comps and diving deep with designers.
You are self-directed and take initiative with confidence, yet know when to include others. You communicate effectively and thoughtfully. You appreciate the value of documentation. You are accountable for the entire user experience, from conception to production.
You love contributing to opensource. Your Github profile is a hive of exciting collaborations. You strive to learn and shape emerging projects. You lead and inspire others with your own applications and sites in your free time. You go out for drinks with your friends and have engrossing discussions about the web. You love freenode.
Your JavaScript knowledge is one of your greatest assets. You instinctively understand where native JavaScript ends and frameworks begin. Your extensive experience with MVC and design patterns guides you to insightful and intuitive solutions. You are eager to define new TDD and BDD frontend flows. You’re gratified that your language of choice is currently the most popular on Github and is evolving in leaps and bounds on the server-side. You love your backend developer. You regard as common knowledge that robust, performant code is integral to a compelling UX.
Your HTML5 and CSS3 expertise expands as fast as the specs are updated. You shiver with anticipation for Level 4 CSS selector support, consistent gradient rule syntax, and native grid layouts. You rock the Chrome Dev channel and wish the Safari updates were out already. You crave responsive design. You know when to go web versus native.
THE BENEFITS
Swipely is small yet growing rapidly with explosive signup rates (seriously, off the charts!) offering Silicon Valley style startup perks and more. We've got you covered on hardware -- configure your own laptop and bring on the Happy Hacker keyboards, dual-monitors, and pairing stations. Travel expenses, conference tickets, industry and social events? Check! Aeron chairs, daily catered lunches from the finest restaurants around (they are our merchant partners, after all!), all the snacks, beverages, and happy hours you can handle? Done, done, and done!
Residing at 39 Pike Street in the Creative Capital that is Providence, you'll find us strategically located between the humming downtown and the vibrant campuses of Brown and the Rhode Island School of Design, a block away from the best coffee shop in the city.
Everyone in our company, from sales to engineering, is searching for you RIGHT NOW and wants to be working with you yesterday. Do us a favor; reach out and tell us about yourself.
Please send your resume and github profile to uxeng+y212@swipely.com – include a portfolio if available.
We are a startup that's growing customer-wise and employee-wise. If you're interested in one, feel free to email me directly at work (mbrace@invodo.com) if you prefer it to be handed off, but we're small enough that you can feel comfortable just sending it to careers@invodo.com.

Customers include Fog Creek/Stack Exchange, Photojojo, Weebly, Kickstarter, Make a Wish Foundation, tons of awesome startups, and even some public companies! And... we're just getting started.
We recently launched a new product called Samurai into public beta. (http://samurai.feefighters.com) It's an all-in-one all-in-one solution for taking payments online. It has come out of the gate swinging - there is a ton of pent-up demand to fix this industry and we're excited at how many people have been interested in our new product. We have a few more AWESOME tricks up our sleeve and need developers to help build them out!
We have passionate users, awesome investors and partners, and products that our customers love. We enjoy a very fun and stimulating work environment in our new office in River North. Much of the Samurai dev team was early on in another payments startup that grew to be a $2Billion company (including the CIO of that company). Here are bios of some folks that you'll be working with: https://samurai.feefighters.com/about We're still finishing up our job description - but here's a start. http://feefighters.com/jobs/rails-ninja-developer/
