We're 5 YC alums, trying to change the world. Join us at 42Floors.
We're looking to bring on a full stack engineer. We work mostly with Ruby on Rails and Backbone.js. Good hackers can learn any framework of course, so there's no prerequisite on experience -- you just need to be a smart hacker willing to take on problems. We've got backend data needs, front end products to build, mobile apps in need of love. There's lots to do.
You don't need to be a YC alum, but you should naturally think like a founder, not an employee. There are now 9 of us, and each of us is a strong-willed, independent thinker. The root of our teamwork is based in respect for each other's considerable talents.
Because we're entirely composed of other capable founders, we only need to do things like meetings once every couple of weeks. It's refreshing. Of course, we play bughouse (team chess) every day. Often, several times a day. We even wrote an app to calculate our rankings...but I digress.
We also climb and go to a boxing instructor every week (it's an incredible workout). We have uber-healthy food every day. After a few weeks with us, you'll find that you're in the best health of your life. It's an awesome perk.
We won't stand for anything other than simplicity and eloquence in both our design and our code. Hopefully, you feel the same way.
Salary is $100k+ (you'll pick the actual number). Equity will be 1%. 8/9 of us are SF based. You don't have to be, but it's much better if you are.
