Original posting

Austin, TX [US/Canada/EU remote ok] - WP Engine (http://wpengine.com) The only managed WordPress platform invested in by Automattic, hosting WordPress for the likes of Foursquare, Asana, Soundcloud and many big name household brands. Security and scalability is what gets us going, along with being part of the WordPress and OS communities. We're still a small (~7 person), funded startup looking to expand the team due to the tremendus growth we've seen over the past 12 months. We currently have positions for: PHP Software Engineers * Bringing the highest level of quality and best-practice to PHP engineering. * Developing both WordPress-code (some of which will be submitted to the open source project) and internal customer-facing projects. Linux Server Admins * We run our own bare-metal hardware because we're so optimized for speed, yet we deploy new servers all the time due to our growth. * You are confident working with high-availability SOA clusters of memcache, varnish, nginx, apache, mysql, etc. * You want to automate the shit out of everything - we do too! You can find out more about what we do, how we do it and why we do it at http://wpengine.com/careers/ - where you can also find out more about our positions. As you would expect we offer a competitive salary, equity, benefits, and a fun environment to work in. You can email your resumes to ben [at] wpengine .com
