Scribd (YC '06), San Francisco - H1B, FULL-TIME, and INTERN are welcome
Scribd (social publishing & eBooks, top 100 website) is hiring talented hackers and other technical people for a broad range of technologies.
We've hired THREE full-time people and numerous interns from these "Who is Hiring" threads, including a one just last month ... it really works!!
We're looking for people who want to work with:
* Ruby on Rails (we're the #2 largest rails site, after Twitter)
* Javascript (we recently switched to Coffeescript and are loving it)
* iOS
* Android
* Machine Learning / data mining / recommendations
* Back-end problems: scalability, web crawling, big data, analytics
* DevOps and web infrastructure
That said, we care way more about your personality and general hacking skills then what languages you've used so far, so if you haven't used these but want to break into mobile or web development, this could be a good opportunity for you. We've hired people from these threads with everywhere from 0 to 10 years of experience. We're profitable, very well funded and have a really fun office environment (go-karts + a zipline!). We've got flexible hours, a very engineer-driven company culture, and a really terrific team.
Scribd alumni have gone on to found 4 other YCombinator companies, more than from any other startup. We think this says something about the kind of people that we like to hire.
We're working on a big new product launch now that we're really excited about. If you're interested in eBooks, I'd love to tell you about it.
Generally we're looking for full-time and INTERN hires (junior year or older) who want to move to SF. H1B and relocation are no problem.
