We believe that if you do what you love, it rarely feels like work - especially when you're on a quest to give meaning to millions of voices. An amazing environment helps too. We provide the tools of your choice, ice cream socials (old-school but tasty) plus all the perks of being part of the 500 Startups community. Oh, and there's a market-rate salary, early-stage equity, $10K signing bonus, 21 days off and a 401K (since no one can live on ice cream and good views alone).

&lt;b&gt;Looking for ambitious engineers&lt;/b&gt;

Preferably, you're a hard-core Ruby on Rails geek, but it's fine even if you are just trying it out and feel you want to go deeper. You'll be responsible for doing awesome things such as launching Twitter-strength API, developing new patentable crowdsourcing computation and voice algorithms (Python/Perl), setting up continuous deployment, scaling to accommodate the usage from our Fortune 100 clients... You'll be making a significant impact on the product &amp; technology direction of the company.

&lt;b&gt;When we dream of you, you look like this&lt;/b&gt;

You love working in startups &amp; building stuff that people use
You've built complete apps from scratch, and you're aware of the scaling issues
You want to help build our continuous deployment infrastructure (&quot;TDD is so passe!&quot;)
You have a CS degree or equivalent, e.g., you've written code in multiple languages (not just scripting languages)
You love learning new technologies &amp; approaches and appreciate an opportunity to try them out 'in the wild' (&quot;MongoDB, yay&quot;; &quot;Selenium sounds awesome&quot;; &quot;gotta try that RabbitMQ&quot;; etc)&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Software Developer, Ruby Developer, Ruby on Rails Developer&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;</description>
