Academia (www.academia.edu) – Generalists and UI Engineers. Full Time in San Francisco (near the Montgomery Bart Station) We are part of the Open Science movement. Our agile team of 12 Engineers are building a disruptive platform that will allow researchers to share their work more quickly, obtain greater peer-review coverage, and innovate faster. We are building this platform using Rails, Coffeescript, Backbone, PostgreSQL, and hosting it on AWS. Our interview process is very straight forward: apply to hiring@academia.edu and Ashley John will respond to your email within 48 hours. We are seeking developers who love to code, who want to use their technical skills to make a huge difference, work in a fast paced startup, and enjoy solving complex technical challenges. We offer amazing perks including an unlimited book budget. We devour books! We look forward to hearing from you.
