Software Engineer
Location: Remote
Department: Engineering/IT
We are looking for web developers to join our team. We are looking for Junior developers with 2-4 years experience as well as Senior developers with 5-10 years.
The Responsibilities:
- Building web-based tools that help the Facebook ecosystem.
- Brainstorming new ideas and products (100% of product roadmap comes from developers' ideas).
- Supporting the products you build. Developers handle the design, customer service, marketing, and PR of their products.
The Requirements:
- A solid knowledge of Java, C++, C#, Python, Ruby, or any other mainstream object oriented programming language.
- We do not hire based on specific languages or technologies; instead, we expect you to quickly learn whatever tools are appropriate for the task.
- A deep foundational knowledge of the stuff that makes the web tick: HTTP, HTML, CSS, XML, and the relational data model.
- You are a developer, not a programmer.
- Excellent interpersonal skills and a sense of humor.
- A solid command of written and spoken English. Outstanding writing skills a plus.
The Perks:
- Work in an office that understands and values developers. No cubicles, no unnecessary meetings, the latest hardware, and an 11/12 on The Joel Test.
- Design BIG applications. Our web properties receive millions of hits per hour and our databases process over ten thousand transactions per second.
- Show off your work. Instead of building "a scalable data access layer with an XML-configuration engine" that only five people will ever use, build a website that everyone -- including your mother -- can appreciate.
- For those in our office, a great downtown location with convenient access to Metro, restaurants, and parking.
- Competitive salary, benefits, and equity.
To apply, please email us your resume and a cover letter. If selected, we will conduct a brief telephone interview, followed by a half-day technical interview. We regret that we are not able to respond to everyone.
Applications sent to any other email address usually get ignored.
