San Francisco, CA (Mission District) - awe.sm - H1B okay
We're building conversion tracking for social media: think "Sendgrid for social media".
What's that mean? It means we're building a platform that lets other companies abstract away a complex problem that lots of people have been reinventing the wheel for: measuring traffic, page views, signups and sales generated by users sharing with each other on Twitter, Facebook et al. We have a bunch of APIs and are building more all the time, as well as a GUI that attempts to make our data easy to use.
We're hiring front-end engineers, back-end engineers, and those who fall into both categories, who we call "full stack" engineers:

On the back-end, we use a variety of languages including PHP and Ruby (and bash) to build high-performance, high-volume, real-time data collection and processing systems, connecting to a bunch of different data stores including MySQL, Redis and Sphinx. We are more concerned with the "smart and gets things done" type than a specific line on your resume, and are willing and eager to provide training and mentorship, both internal and external.
We're a team of 13, rising to 14-16 once we hire you people. Our perks include offices with an awesome view ( <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/seldo/6326815086/in/photostream" >http://www.flickr.com/photos/seldo/6326815086/in/photostream</a> ) at 22nd and Mission, catered lunch 3x a week, and a company IRC server, which should tell you a lot about the kind of devs we are.
