HN Jobs

Indiegogo (www.indiegogo.com)—San Francisco, CA We're a team of engineers, musicians, tri-athletes, designers, activists, filmmakers, and writers, united by a shared passion to empower people across the world to turn their dreams into reality. Realities like: * Helping the Oatmeal’s Matthew Inman to open a Nikola Tesla Museum: http://igg.me/p/204900/ * Rallying the YouTube community to increase nonprofit awesomeness in the world: http://igg.me/at/p4a2013/ * Building a 13-foot high statue of a T-Rex with Christopher Walken’s head: http://igg.me/p/390984/ Over the last few years, we’ve turned our vision of building the world’s funding platform from the dream a scrappy team of 5 into the reality of a 90-person team and $40 million plus in VC backing. Mo’ money, mo’ problems, eh? Our newfound scale has set us up to succeed as the open crowdfunding platform for the whole world—and scale brings a whole new set of engineering challenges that might interest you. Do any of these challenges grab your attention? Let us know! * Dev/Ops Engineer (http://www.indiegogo.com/about/careers?jvi=oGtsYfwj,Job): help us build out the infrastructure that’s serving millions of dollars in funds raised each month * Software Engineer, Web (http://www.indiegogo.com/about/careers?jvi=oB0oYfwH,Job): we’re a Rails shop at heart; let’s scale that codebase to support the world * iOS Engineer (http://www.indiegogo.com/about/careers?jvi=oLSGYfw1,Job): help us build our first-gen mobile app! Our engineering approach: * Tech stack: Ruby on Rails, iOS 7 SDK, Backbone.js, AngularJS, LESS, Elasticsearch, Amazon Redshift, Chef * We’re an agile shop (somewhere between XP and scrum), and our project teams decide their own working standards * We already have one of the most diverse engineering teams in San Francisco, and we’re working to change the tech community as a whole (see http://igg.me/at/LesbiansWhoTech/ and http://igg.me/at/BGCTheRemix/) * We’re language agnostic when we hire—we're open to talking to engineers with strength in Python, PHP, Java, Perl, etc., as long as you enjoy working with RoR and are willing to learn! Our next year is all about execution—there’s never been a better time to join the team.
