#485Monetate helps digital marketers make their content more relevant. We turn data into action on our clients' sites by doing real-time data analysis and DOM manipulation to put the right experience in front of their users. We’re looking for engineers who want to do highly visible work on great brands and solve tough problems with great coworkers.
What we're looking for:
* 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.
* 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.
* 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:
* 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.
* Founded in 2008
* Funded by First Round Capital and OpenView
* Open source - Google Closure, Python, Hadoop, Mahout, Solr and Lucene - we're open source across our stack
* Market rate salaries

#490Earlier quoted context omitted.
Sorry about that awful experience we caused there. We definitely had a period where we simply struggled to respond to everyone. We honestly get about 100 emails from this HN listing. When we were just a few people, it was hard to keep on top of. It's a poor excuse, and we're fixing it now (we genuinely get back to everyone now). We didn't handle this well for quite some time, though.
Use resumator or one of the other cheap apps for handling this. For most people a canned response is absolutely fine, it's the no-response that ticks people off.
