We are a stealth startup that recently closed funding from well-known investors. This is an opportunity to join at the earliest stages and help shape product/culture.

Do you find yourself using Google to navigate websites that you commonly use, or end up with many browser tabs trying to accomplish some task? We're innovating along how people interact with online services and designing a new web-based experience that allows users to accomplish tasks in a more usable, efficient, and social manner.

To do this, we are looking for engineers/designers passionate about either creating great user experiences, scalable back-end infrastructure, big data analytics, and mobile devices.

We work mainly with Javascript (jquery and node.js)
