Original posting

New York, NY - Software Engineer - Fulltime Canvas (USV Funded) is looking for engineers #3 and #4 to join a small close team building the rich-media community platform of the future. The job title says "Software Engineer" but really we're looking for "Software Entrepreneur" or a "Startup Engineer". Yes, your day job will be writing code. But that's the only similarity to a big company software job. You'll be challenged to take big ideas and turn them into concrete testable hypotheses. Shipping a great feature is important, but positively changing user behavior is the ultimate success criteria. Built-to-spec takes a backseat to moves-the-metrics.
