I knew this group when they were at UIUC. Their work is really great and approachable. the concept of basic version control was foreign to them, so there seemed to be a lot of room for improvement on the non-scientific side. It is great that they have started to fix those issues. Seriously consider this job is you are interesting in the mix between hardware and software.

#505Earlier quoted context omitted.
We're not talking about subjective stuff like company culture, we're talking about factually disprovable statements like "you need to be in a physical office to collaborate effectively." That's an objectively false statement and it's irritating to see so many people repeat it.
I don't think either of the posts you've replied to in this thread state that all employees at all companies require physical proximity to collaborate effectively. Just that Matasano (by virtue of its leadership) prefers proximity. It's entirely reasonable that some people prefer proximity over remote arrangements. People who don't aren't likely to enjoy working at Matasano. That doesn't negate the existence of other…

#507We're growing a small team to further our mastery of Gmail. Hundreds of millions of people use Gmail, and we're making it better. How do we know? Our (paid) users love us!
-Lead Android Dev- Our users are passionate about an Android offering being released. You'll have 10s of thousands of users from day 1! We're still small so you can build both the App and your team. Do it your way with no legacy code. Ownership + equity!
-Front End Engineer- Join a team of incredibly talented JS developers. Make Gmail better! Both positions will enjoy:
Launch Quickly No PM bureaucracy. No exec approvals. No insanely complex and interdependent infrastructure. Just listen to users and launch stuff as fast as you can build it.
Innovate on Gmail Want to make email better? You can, without being on the Gmail team. We're cooking up some really exciting things in our secret lab.
Feel More Connected Your work will have a direct impact on making the lives of our users more organized, efficient, and better. And you'll hear their gratitude!
Today we're focused on business processes (sales, hiring, fundraising, customer support, bug tracking, product dev, etc). Tomorrow we're on track to build the system that solves email.

#508As Mattermark’s Engineering Manager, you will lead our team in making key decisions on everything from distributed scraping to data architecture to the way we represent our product on the web. We want someone who recognizes that leading an engineering team is more than just running a Scrum process, and can truly drive ownership, accountability and customer focus on the team. To be successful, you need to be comfortable and excited about coding, and able to command the respect of our talented engineering team. You’ll work closely with our Director of Product and CTO to drive decision making and team strategy.
A bit more about our product: Right now, millions of knowledge workers wake up every day and open their spreadsheets at consulting firms like McKinsey or VC firms like Sequoia Capital. They manually mine data on the web to determine what companies their clients should be investing in, selling to, etc. Our product dramatically cuts down the time they spend manually researching these companies by aggregating growth signals for hundreds of thousands of private companies. With the right people, we believe Mattermark will become synonymous with deal prospecting, and for many of our customers, it already has.
