Interviewstreet hiring visual design engineers
We are a team of 5 based in MountainView who work relentlessly hard and funded by top-tier investors. But the more important metric to track is the growth in the number of programmers in our system (which is phenomenal btw) and customers who're using our product (Facebook, Amazon, Quora, etc.) - we've been growing rapidly in both fronts.
We're looking for the nearly mythical interaction designer that not only is able to own the entire user flow (for both programmers and companies) but also is able to inject a functionally pleasing personality to the site.
We meet companies personally and have a sense of what they expect in the product & flow. But brainstorming with a designer in this field is going to result in very high output.

The InterviewStreet Story so far...
Vivek (co-founder) started out at Amazon, where he did a ton of technical interviewing. He realized that, 80% of the time, he could have just given them an automated test instead of spending 20 minutes on each candidate. Vivek wrote a web application to do just that, saving himself days of interviews every month, and InterviewStreet was born. Amazon was, and still is, customer #1.
While at YCombinator, we noticed that a lot of programming screens are largely similar, and figured that we could make a Common App, an SAT of sorts, for technical hiring. Programmers only have to solve a single set of programming problems (algorithmic challenges and real-world problems), instead of one per company that they're applying to. Thus, we created CodeSprint, which had over 5000 programmers applying for 85 companies, including Facebook, Microsoft, and Dropbox. We believe that, in addition to automated applicant screening, CodeSprint is the future of hiring.
