San Francisco, CA (SF/Mission)

RG Labs is hiring: http://www.rglabsinc.com/#jobs

We operate under the premise that the most important decisions we make are decisions about people (e.g., who to start a company with, who to hire, who to date/marry...) We also feel like the Web is in its infancy in terms of helping us to make better decisions based on data and that this space will explode in coming years.

We're planning to help detonate that explosion. :)

A few things about us:

- We have a long backlog of customers waiting to use our product when it launches and a big market in front of us.

- We're building an engineering-centric organization and working out of a cool work/live space in the Mission.

- We offer outstanding benefits, treat engineers and designers like the VIPs they are and value balance while at the same time working hard and passionately towards our goals.

- Our current stack includes Ruby, Rails, MySQL, Resque, and elasticsearch and we'll be diving in soon on Hadoop, graph databases/neo4j and a whole host of other fun stuff.

- We're also planning to contribute to open source as much as we can (e.g., https://github.com/rglabs/teleport).

- We're funded but also early in our lifecycle so it's a unique opportunity to be a major contributor and help to set the tone for the future for our company.

To hear more drop me a line directly at jon@rglabsinc.com or contact us via our website (http://www.rglabsinc.com). We'd love to tell you more.
