HN Jobs

Scribd (YC '06), San Francisco/SOMA - H1B, FULL-TIME, and INTERN are all welcome Scribd ("Netflix for eBooks", top 100 website, 40 people) is hiring talented hackers of all kinds to help us build the library of the 21st century. We've hired SIX full-time people and TONS of interns from these "Who is Hiring" threads ... it really works! We're looking for people who want to work with: * Ruby on Rails (we're the #2 largest rails site, after Twitter) * Back-end infrastructure like machine learning / data mining / recommendations - think Netflix prize, but for books! * Javascript (well, we use Coffeescript) * iOS or Android (we're a top 10 eBook app, with a tiny mobile team) * Internships: junior standing or above. We hire several interns every summer and year-round. That said, we care way more about your personality and general hacking skills then what languages you've used so far, so if you haven't used these but want to break into mobile or web development, this could be a good opportunity for you. We've hired people from these threads with everywhere from 0 to 10 years of experience. We're profitable, very well funded and have a really fun office environment (go-karts + a rock climbing wall!). Scribd alumni have gone on to found 4 other YCombinator companies, more than from any other startup. We think this says something about the kind of people that we like to hire, and we love hiring people with entrepreneur and startup ambitions. We are also always looking for international people interested in moving to the US and can help you secure a visa. We recently launched a service that's being called the "Netflix for books" and are really excited about it.
