We're looking for an outstanding software engineer. We help people
find apartments. We're an Agile development team for the flagship
division of a well-established Internet advertising company. We run
multiple sites receiving over 3 million unique visitors a month.

Our company is primarily a PHP shop, but we care less about your
knowledge of PHP and more about your understanding of object-oriented
programming and interpersonal skills. Also, we maintain a lot of
mobile apps and are developing some new applications with Ruby on
Rails. We're looking for people who at least have an interest in unit
testing, test-driven development, and Agile project management.

In addition to just running traditional big websites, projects focus
on mobile websites, mobile apps, client-side awesomeness, advanced
search logic, SMS services, web analytics, reporting, automated
testing, highly available systems, user experience, web services, data
distribution, email marketing, search engine optimization and various
administrative tools.

It's very rare to work more than 40 hours a week here. As a new team
member, you'll get a brand-new Mac fully equipped with large 24"
second monitor. You can run whatever OS and IDE you like. Your
meetings will be focused on collaboration rather than process. We
focus on working software, not comprehensive documentation. We hire
motivated individuals so we can give them the tools they need and
trust them to get the job done. There are frequent technical training
sessions. There are various user groups within the company that meet
once a month. We also provide tuition reimbursement and a
comprehensive benefits package including a generous 401(k).
