Underground Cellar (YC W15) seeks front end/back end engineers in San Francisco
Come join Underground Cellar -- a YC W15 wine startup in San Francisco, that has already achieved product/market fit of our unique e-commerce model for the wine industry.

Our team consists of proven leaders who are uniquely-suited to tackle this space. We've held high-level positions at prestigious companies like Microsoft, Adobe, and Scribd; we've invented and sold patents to the likes of Sony; and we've built, grown, sold, and taken companies to IPO.

Does that sound like something you want to be a part of? If so, what we're offering you isn't just a job. It's an opportunity to become part of the core team in the early stages of our start-up. You'll work directly with our CTO to lead and implement key aspects of our software development and build out our technology stack.

==ABOUT OUR COMPANY==
We run UndergroundCellar.com -- an e-commerce wine marketplace. But at our core, we are actually an internet technology startup that is applying our new e-commerce model to help wineries sell more wine and reach new buyers.

Discounts ruin brands and bastardize pricing structures. We're here to protect wineries by providing them the technology to quickly move inventory and reach consumers through our new sustainable sales-channel that doesn't rely on discounts. First we’re proving our model by gaining market share in the wine vertical -- but our sights are set high to roll this out across several other luxury verticals and ultimately to combine them all into a conglomerate luxury shopping marketplace.

==AVAILABLE ROLES==
All positions start as soon as possible. We are looking for candidates who have experience and enthusiasm for software engineering, web applications, databases, scalable systems, marketing, and user experience. Extra brownie points if you love wine!

The Frontend Engineer will integrate designs for our wine offers into our website and mobile apps, as well as work with our designer to design the graphics for marketing campaigns and ad creatives, and continue to refine the overall user experience for our customers.

ROLE 2: Backend Engineer, Web Platform
San Francisco, CA

You’re a master of the web technologies Node.js, PHP, SQL, and you’re thrilled by the thought of building massively scalable services leveraging platforms like Amazon AWS and Windows Azure.
