Common factors for all positions

When people ask us where we’re based, we typically respond “on the internet.” That is, although our current offices are in Seattle and San Francisco, we’re looking for talented people wherever they might be based.

You’re excited to help create not only the architecture of our products, but the culture of the company. You lead by example.

You don’t need much direction, but when you do, you’re comfortable asking for it.

You’re willing to dive into just about any problem, even if it’s outside your area of expertise. You cheerfully accept responsibility for whatever needs to get done, but relinquish it when that makes more sense.

When you attack a task, you stay on it until it’s done. And although you can crank out tons of work, you know when you’ve done enough (not everything has to be perfect — but some things do).

You can deal with uncertainty and change. During severe course corrections you stay on an even keel. You’re a pleasure to be around when things get tough.

You keep up to date with the latest developments, but you’re immune to fads and technology/business religion. You just choose the right tools for the job at hand.
