San Francisco, Thumbtack, Software Engineer
Thumbtack is a new way to hire local services, e.g. photographers, tutors, or home contractors. With millions of users and an active consumer base across the US, we're riding the proverbial rocketship with insane month-over-month growth figures. If you want to join a company that has ridiculous growth, opportunity, but also impact on the real world, Thumbtack might be a good choice.
Some things our users are saying: "I owe my business to you", "50% of my business is from Thumbtack", "I can work less and earn more with Thumbtack." We help small businesses build their client-base. And on the flip side of the marketplace, we help consumers find just the right person to do the job with minimal effort on their part.
H1B is great. :-)
We're a human-focused company: we brew beer, eat meals together (cooked by our in-house chef), and otherwise enjoy the usual startup perks in downtown SF. But we maintain a serious perspective about our software, engineering discipline, and experimental rigor.
If you're in SF, I'm happy to meet up for coffee: email chris @.
