"You must be Polish" O_o

Yeah, it's weird to put it this way. The thing though is: the whole dev team at our company speaks Polish, so it would be very uncomfortable to be the only person who doesn't.

Is the requirement:

- speak Polish

- have Polish citizenship

- be a native of Poland

The first two of those aren't very strange. The last one is.

Agree, odd way to put, I think OP also meant one should accept low wages :)

No, that's not what I meant. Everything is relative, though — if you live in a crazy expensive place like San Francisco, yeah, it's not gonna work.

Forget SF. Compare to some west European cities like Berlin, Cologne, Dublin...

San Francisco | KeepSafe http://www.getkeepsafe.com/ | Mobile Engineer

KeepSafe is seeking engineers who will integrate and shape existing privacy and security technologies to fit in the hands of our users. You'll develop new ways to manage privacy that every day users didn't know they needed or wanted, and define the new direction of existing privacy, security and cryptography technology.

We're also sick of reading resumes. They suck. We'd rather read about your work and your passion than what technologies you've worked with.

Stuff we do:

StoryWorth (https://www.storyworth.com) FULLTIME, SF, YC-funded

I'm building the core team at StoryWorth and hiring for two roles:

* iOS Engineer. You’ll be responsible for building our mobile app from scratch, working closely with me on the design and with our web engineer on the backend. Prior experience building an iOS app is required.

* Full-stack Web Engineer. You’ll be taking over the core engineering of the site from me, scaling it as we grow and implementing major new features. You need to be comfortable with Python, HTML and CSS. Bonus points if you have an interest in design.

StoryWorth makes it easy for people to privately record their family stories. Each week, we email our customers a question about their life, for example “What do you remember about your grandmother?” or “Tell me about the day you got engaged”. All they have to do is reply with a story, either by email or by phone. We save their stories and share them privately with their family.

We have a launched product with paying customers across the country who love our service. You're a good fit for these roles if you crave a ton of responsibility on a small team. If you're the kind of person who learns by doing, you'll be learning faster than ever before. Both roles require 3-5 years of experience.

If you're interested, I'd be happy to tell you more. Email your resume/linkedin/github profile to nick@storyworth.com, I can't wait to hear from you!

This is a serious question: are your salaries competitive for that area? Your lead iOS engineers make far less than most staff (entry level) iOS engineers in SF. I ask because my wife and I are thinking of possibly moving to Virginia in a year or so.

That does not sound competitive for the DC area - lead frontend engineers make $120k+ easily around the area, I find it hard to believe more than $90k can't be offered to an iOS lead.

There are definitely DC area companies paying those salaries, but they are much more established and well funded (of course) and for seed size companies in the area we are competitive. Note what I mentioned about our team size.

Our salaries will rise as we grow past the bootstrap/seed phase.
