Generalist Software Engineer
San Francisco, CA
Elegance doesn't come easily. It takes finesse, passion, and the ability to understand how and when to innovate. We're a small company in that great stage of gaining massive momentum, and are looking for software engineers who like wearing a lot of hats and for whom coding is an art.

Pri-0:
An unparalleled love of building elegant software
Proven experience actually shipping software
Strong opinions on what constitutes "good code" and "bad code"
The ability to listen to other peoples' strong opinions, and even change yours occasionally
Knowledge and experience developing in Python/Django and ideally JavaScript
Industry experience in development of modern web apps
Sense of humor (everyone says this, but we really mean it…we might even ask you to tell jokes in your interviews)

Pri-1:
BS or MS in Computer Science or Electrical Engineering
Be equally comfortable reading Knuth and WTFJS
Experience building social apps
Product management interest and/or experience

Your typical day might include:
Diet Coke
Whiteboarding a new design for a part of the product and arguing over to how best implement it
Building features end-to-end (datamodel, middle tier, front-end), and looking at the data to see how it's used—and how it can be improved—over the next days, weeks, and months
Free lunch
Working full-stack (https://www.facebook.com/notes/facebook-engineering/the-full-stack-part-i/461505383919) to track down a customer issue, and then writing a regression test with your fix
