Context Matters is a platform that the world's largest pharmaceutical companies use to make strategic drug development decisions. We're looking to add another developer to our small team. If that sounds like a good time to you, please check out the attached job description and answer 3 short questions online at http://www.interviewzen.com/apply/5x2pbm or you can email me: mitchell.smith (at) contextmatters (.com)
DEVELOPER
We've built a platform that the world's largest pharmaceutical companies use to make strategic drug development decisions. Members of our team enjoy meaningful equity and a progressive, respectful environment. We like having interests outside of work! Product Development has recently transitioned from contractors to a small team in house and we're seeking a third member. We tend to be pretty self-sufficient, but collaborate on things like code review or UX. The ability to wear many hats is a plus – but we might make fun of you if you mention being a “ninja.”
Responsibilities
• Write code that someone else is able to understand
• Design features that work & look good
• Have ideas: UX, technologies to use, be opinionated on the product
• Balance the ability to ship quickly with code quality and test coverage
Requirements
• Experience developing applications with Ruby on Rails
• Demonstrable knowledge of front-end technologies: JavaScript, HTML, CSS & jQuery
• Working knowledge of SQL
• Familiarity with testing (we use RSpec and Jasmine)
• Ubuntu / server admin knowledge a plus!

Note: At the moment we're unable to accommodate remote workers.
Hey there! Allow us to introduce ourselves. We are Expensify and we do "expense reports that don't suck!" (Google "expensify" to read more.) We're getting crushed under an ever-growing pile of super awesome work, and I need one bright soul to help us dig our way out. I can guarantee you fun, an amazing opportunity to learn, and the siren's call of distant riches. But only if you are all of the following:
- An incredibly hard worker, even when it's not so fun. There is a ton of work to do, and a lot of it downright sucks. After all — we do the sucky work so our customers won't need to. I need you to buck up and grind through server logs, user emails, source code, and bug reports, without complaint or supervision, and come back asking for more.
- A cool person to be with. Not a crazy party animal, just someone we can trust, rely upon, hang out with, bounce ideas off of, and generally interact with in a positive way, both personally and professionally. In fact, this is one of the most stringent requirements we have: would you be fun to hang out with day and night on some remote, exotic beach? This isn't a rhetorical question, either: every year we take the company overseas for a month (on your own dime, sorry) and work incredibly hard while having a ton of fun. We've done Thailand, Mexico, India, Turkey, Croatia and the Philippines. We are going to Portugal this month! Want to come?
- Super talented, in a general way. We're going to throw a ton of work at you of every possible sort, and you need that magic skill of being able to figure it out even if you have no idea where to start. On any given day you might bounce between super low-level coding, super high-level technical support, marketing-driven data-mining, updating our user documentation, inventing/designing/building some new feature, etc. This is not a code monkey job — you're going to be a full participant in the process, and you need to bring your own unique blend of skills to the table.
- Specifically talented in a programming way. You can instantly visualize solutions to problems big and small. Your code is always clean, well commented, has good nomenclature and indentation. You can switch on a dime between C++, PHP, Bash, Cron, HTML, CSS, JavaScript, jQuery, Dwoo, SQL — not because you know them all, but because you're the sort of person who can just pick it up and figure it out. If you're this sort of person, you'll know what I mean. If not, then this position isn't for you.
And there are a bunch more, but odds are if you got this far, nothing I can do would stop you from applying. That's a problem because while I know you are awesome, it's actually really hard and time consuming to find you in the midst of the literally hundreds of other applications I get from everyone else. So this is where I'm going to ask my first favor: can you make it really easy and obvious how great you are, so I don't accidentally overlook you?
There are probably many ways to do that. But the easiest way to do that is to check out we.are.expensify.com and send in an application(which you can find at http://we.are.expensify.com/apply). We are excited to hear from you! -----
What we're looking for:
- People who like to ship - we're focused on building and shipping great products - if you like to see your work in production quickly you'll see it here. We ship often (every two weeks), and iterate.
- People who like hard challenges - we have great problems across our products - huge data sets, UX, 3rd party Javascript, high volume / low latency APIs - we have no shortage of fun problems to work on.
- Problem solvers who like to code - we take things apart, figure out how they work, then build software to solve our users' problems.
About us:
- Founded in 2008
- Open source - Google Closure, Python, AngularJS, Javascript, Pandas, Redis, Hadoop, Mahout, Solr and Lucene - we're open source across our stack
- Respect - it's our core value. We have a great team and we work well together. Our vacation policy is the same as Netflix (we don't have one). Our technical project teams are self-organizing and have full authority over (as well as responsibility for) the problems they work on.
- Market rate salaries
- Funded by First Round Capital and OpenView

Scribd ("Netflix for eBooks", top 100 website, 50 people) is hiring talented hackers of all kinds to help us build the library of the 21st century.
We've hired EIGHT full-time people and TONS of interns from these "Who is Hiring" threads ... 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 (well, we use Coffeescript)
* iOS OR Android (we're a top 10 eBook app with more reviews than Wikipedia, with a tiny mobile team)
* Machine Learning / data mining / recommendations - think Netflix prize, but for books!
* Big data and web infrastructure - we're big users of hive, impala, and hadoop
* Internships: junior standing or above for all areas of engineering. We hire several interns every summer and year-round.
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 rock climbing wall!). 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, and we love hiring people with entrepreneur and startup ambitions. We are also always looking for international people interested in moving to the US and can help you secure a visa.
