San Francisco SOMA area: Shop It To Me http://shopittome.com/jobs

Seeking: Full time employees

About Us: Do you like pleasing over a million people every single day? We use Rails and a magic dust sprinkling of JRuby to ensure all our subscribers get the very best deals on apparel from around the internet.

Perks:

- Work with awesome programmers. Not a day goes by that I don't learn something new.

- Interesting problems: usually in the form of high email volume challenges.

- A predisposition to A/B testing and using ideas that come from anywhere. My offhanded remarks sometimes make it into production A/B tests!

- We're profitable and we have been since 2007.

- A diverse team: want to work with smart non-programmers? We have them in spades.

Requirements:

- Predisposition towards action

- Eagerness to learn

- Experience with our stack: Ruby on Rails, JRuby, MySQL, Javascript et al.

- Strong object orientated knowledge

- Fluid communication skills (both written and spoken)
