Hey everyone, hope your April is off to a killer start! Like in last month's Who is hiring I wanted to share all our numbers for complete transparency. March just came to a close and Buffer stands at 1.4M total users served by a small 21 person team spread across 14 cities and 5 continents. 130,000 of our users are actively using the product each month. We generated $350,000 in March, and we have $580,000 in the bank…

Hey Last month I sent a mail to ioshacker@bufferapp.com, didn't get any reply. Should I apply again?

None of those posts mention remote. They all give off the impression that you're looking for NYC only. :(

FableLabs - http://fablelabs.com - SOMA, San Francisco

Empower Legions of Interactive Storytellers

The greatest stories of our generation have all been passive and that's about to change. Technology has made just about every aspect of our lives more interactive and we believe storytelling is ripe for change. We think it's time interactive stories moved beyond dragons & princesses for teenage boys.

FableLabs builds NOTHING but awesome story-driven games for the tablet and web. Our team of creatives and technologists from BioWare, Maxis, LucasArts, Meteor, Natural Motion, and Disney have built and scaled products with millions of users and we've recently closed on fundraising to scale our team. We take the best storytelling elements of adventure / role playing games but make the gameplay accessible, free-to-play and fun for those who don’t have 8 hour blocks of time to hack and slash through dungeons.

We're small enough (15, heavily weighted towards creatives) where developers work on everything but here are some more details about the specific positions we're looking to fill:

* Senior Gameplay Developer: http://bit.ly/1jVK24k

* Senior Tools Developer: http://bit.ly/Ot93rj

* Lead Platform Engineer: http://bit.ly/1lLRDF4

We offer market salaries, meaningful equity, generous revenue shares, and healthcare/vision/dental benefits. Check out previews of our games on the website: www.fablelabs.com, or email me directly with any questions: twu[at]fablelabs[dot]com
