We are hiring software engineers across the board, including recommendations, search, payments, Android & frontend-web. In particular we're looking for: • Manager of Infrastructure Engineering • Search Engineers • Backend generalists for Content Engineering In Amsterdam we are hiring backend software engineers with solid experience in building, running and scaling out cloud-native microservices (preferably in Ruby and/or Go). We value a hacker mindset, clean coding and a natural aversion to complexity (or if you're a glass-half-empty person: an affinity for simplicity). Scribd has a very friendly, engineering-driven company culture with competitive salary and great benefits. We are ambitious but at the same time we value a good work life balance. In general we care way more about your personality and hacking skills than what languages you’ve used so far. We have hired many people from these threads, including myself.
