We're a small team building refer a friend solutions for a variety of online retailers. Referral is simple in concept, easy to explain to friends but complicated in practice. We think we have a great solution with some unique features but we have so much more we want to build.

We're looking for an engineer with 3+ years experience who can help take a leading role in coming up with smart solutions to help our customers tell their friends about great products. The company is growing quickly (we're looking for roles in sales, account management, QA and support as well as development) and we've taken on funding from a group of investors to help us expand.

Our stack is PHP currently using Symfony2 and based on MySQL. We run on AWS. We're keen on using the right tool for the job, so I expect that to change for certain performance intensive parts of the system as we grow.

Our salary offer is £40+k depending on the candidate, plus stock options. More detail of our job spec is here: http://goo.gl/Ex72fY, and you can check out our website at http://mention-me.com. I'd be glad to answer any questions at ed@mention-me.com too.
