Description
We're offering the opportunity to work on a group that is focused on programming. Our team believes in the value of thinking about the software we write, improving the tools we use, and reflecting on the ideas behind it all. We spend little time dealing with non-engineering issues, and implement solutions with a freedom to choose technologies best suited for the task. Throughout the year our engineers also get the opportunity to explore new ideas that they believe could be interesting and of benefit. We work in a variety of languages and hire qualified candidates regardless of their language background. These are the languages we currently use, or that influence our thinking:
Clojure Erlang Java JavaScript Objective-C Python Smalltalk Self
