San Francisco, CA; Full-time; H1Bs welcome

Nextdoor -- http://nextdoor.com/

Nextdoor is a private social network for neighborhoods, where neighbors can talk online and help make their community better in the real world. People are using Nextdoor to find a trustworthy babysitter, organize a garage sale, ask for help locating a lost pet, and exchange many other kinds of help and information with their neighbors.

We're a venture-backed startup company of 23 people in downtown SF. We just launched our product last week, and are looking to grow with a few more key hires--particularly software engineers and product designers. If you like (some or all of) Python, jQuery, AWS, geospatial data, clean and usable design, a fast-paced startup environment, please take a look at our job opportunities, and we'd love to hear from you.

You are asking for skilled workers to literally work for the federal minimum wage?

I'm looking for an intern, which as I understand may not even be a paid position at some companies.

Did you misunderstand the skill level I was looking for, or do you disagree?

I interviewed with these guys a while back but ended up doing something else in the end.

I obviously never worked for the company, but the interview process was really interesting (also professional) and it seems like they really care about who they hire. Thumbs up for that.
