San Francisco, CA

Mixpanel (YCS09; http://mixpanel.com) is the most advanced advanced analytics platform ever for web & mobile applications. We're profitable, with millions in monthly revenue, and we're backed by Andreessen Horowitz, Sequoia Capital, and Max Levchin.

ENGINEERING POSITIONS

We have two types of engineering positions available - systems and product.

Systems engineers[1] build and scale our infrastructure, and write mostly C, C++, and Python. These are the people working on our custom datastore. This position requires at least 2 years of experience writing systems software. Solid C experience is a plus.

Product engineers[2] build the parts people interact with - reporting interfaces, APIs, dataviz stuff, and more - and write mostly Python, JS, and Less. This position requires at least 2 years of software engineering experience, no specialization required. Solid JS experience is a plus though.

The engineering team is still small (8), and there's a lot of interesting stuff to do. Happy to talk details.

If you are interested, drop me a line - tim@mixpanel.com.

KA probably receives too many applications. Even when, some time ago, I was happy to volunteer for free, I just got an automated email and no response. Perhaps because of visa issues ? Or maybe there is too much supply because who would not want to help change the world ?

If you never received a (human) response from us, that's a mistake on our part. I'm sorry about that.

Unfortunately coordinating volunteers takes a lot of time and we haven't found it in our interests so far to really go down that road; in order to be able to move fast we're currently looking to hire only people with a longer-term commitment.

Right now I believe we can sponsor renewals but not initial applications. I don't know of any immediate plans to change that, sorry.
