Full-time devs. Frontend Backbone.js / jquery. Backend Python work, would likely be working with Django. Looking for more senior people, as well as a tech lead for the team. Also, QA people.
We're funded by Google Ventures and a ton of others: http://www.crunchbase.com/company/custommade-ventures so paying you well is not an issue. We recently raised an 18 million series B! We're growing, and with that comes scaling challenges. But it's all part of the fun. We have a great team and a great environment that focuses on customers and product development. When I'm working on product stuff, I get to collaborate with product / UX / support people day to day to build a product that meets a real business need, and makes everyone happy. But when I just need to bang out some code, people leave me alone. When I'm working on platform or architectural stuff, I get great advice and feedback from my coworkers. Expressing opinions and having discussion is encouraged. Friday afternoons are refactoring / innovation day to scratch your good code itch. Work / life balance is great. Bureaucracy is at a minimum.
Devs get a macbook pro, a huge thunderbolt display, and an Aeron chair.
You're a low-ego programmer who is always learning, has pushed code to production innumerable times, and doesn't cringe at the prospect of collaborating with a team of non-techies every so often. You know the modern web stack well, and specialize in at least one part of it. Get in touch with our hiring person at ellen -at- custommade-dot-kom. Let her know
that "Mali" sent you.
