Buffer (<a href="http://bufferapp.com" >)
Hey everyone, hope your weekend is off to a killer start!
February just came to a close and Buffer stands at 1.4M total users served by a small 16 person team spread across 12 cities and 5 continents. 130,000 of our users are actively using the product each month. We generated $333,000 in February, and we have $520,000 in the bank. The average salary at the company is $98,000 and our total funding to date is $450,000 which we raised in December 2011, for which we gave up 14% of the company. I'm sharing all of this because one of the highest values we have at Buffer is to be fully transparent, and I'd love for you to be part of the incredible journey we've embarked upon.
At 16% month over month revenue growth on average in the last 6 months, we're seeing increasing demand to build out the product further and help our fast-growing customer base with all their social media problems. To achieve this, we'd love your help with some interesting engineering challenges.
Do any of these areas stand out for you? I'd really love to hear from you:
    - Reliability Hacker (we're sending 400,000 posts to social networks every day,
      our architecture is still not ideal)
    - Happiness (Support) Hacker (we have a crazy obsession for customer happiness
      and want to build our own tools to go beyond what's normal)
    - Android Lead (our Android app has half a million downloads but currently no
      full-time developer!)
    - iOS Hacker (our favorite people who use Buffer are all crying out for an
      iPad app)
    - Growth Hacker (our landing page conversion is at 7%, we'd love your help
      improving it and many other metrics)
    - Frontend Hacker (last month 130,000 people used Buffer, we'd love to improve
      our dashboard interface and extensions for them)

Some of the tech we work with: PHP, Python, MongoDB, AWS (Elastic Beanstalk, Elasticache, SQS), Backbone.js, Grunt.js, Android, iOS).
    - We're completely open about salary and equity, in fact here is a spreadsheet
      of all individual salaries: https://docs.google.com/a/bufferapp.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AgrWVeoG5divdE81a2wzcHYxV1pacWE1UjM3V0w0MUE&amp;usp=drive_web#gid=1.
      It's most likely you'd fall into a range of $85,000-$120,000 and 0.1%-1%.
    - We're a fully distributed remote team, and we come together 3 times a year for
      super fun retreats. The last one was in Thailand in December, our next is
      Cape Town in April!
    - We have a big focus on culture, that's the main thing we think about when someone
      joins the team. Here is our slide deck of values: http://www.slideshare.net/Bufferapp/buffer-culture-03 

I'll read through emails with our CTO Sunil, I hope yours might be part of that. Send him a quick note at REDACTED_EMAIL. If you'd like you can check out more details about all the areas we need help with at <a href="http://jobs.bufferapp.com" >
I'm excited about the chance to work with you. If you have any questions about our culture, product or journey so far, add a reply to this - I'll be checking throughout the day to get back to you :-)
