Scribd (YC '06), San Francisco - H1B, FULL-TIME, and INTERN are all welcome
Scribd (social publishing & eBooks, top 100 website, 35 people) is hiring talented hackers and other technical people for a broad range of technologies.
We've hired FIVE full-time people and numerous interns from these "Who is Hiring" threads, including one just two months ago ... it really works!!
We're looking for people who want to work with:
* Ruby on Rails (we're the #2 largest rails site, after Twitter)
* Javascript (we recently switched to Coffeescript and are loving it)
* iOS
* Machine Learning / data mining / recommendations
* Back-end problems: scalability, web crawling, big data, analytics
* DevOps and web infrastructure
That said, we care way more about your personality and general hacking skills then what languages you've used so far, so if you haven't used these but want to break into mobile or web development, this could be a good opportunity for you. We've hired people from these threads with everywhere from 0 to 10 years of experience. We're profitable, very well funded and have a really fun office environment (go-karts + a rock climbing wall!). We've got flexible hours, a very engineer-driven company culture, and a really terrific team.
Scribd alumni have gone on to found 4 other YCombinator companies, more than from any other startup. We think this says something about the kind of people that we like to hire.
We are still hiring interns for the summer (junior year or older). We are also aggressively looking for international people interested in moving to the US and can help you secure a visa.
