At Babajob, we are building a company that helps people at the bottom of the pyramid find a better job. As a Senior Software Engineer, your mission is to continuously improve Babajob with your code.
You are not just a coder. You take the lead on creating features that solve pain points for customers in hiring people and getting hired. You go out and visit customers with a product manager to understand what existing features we should be improving and what new features we should be creating. You are data driven. You love experiments because they can prove to everyone that your code is making things better (and occasionally make you eat humble pie). You believe in leaving the code better than you found it. You help your fellow developers to become better at their job.
You will learn and use cool technologies that you can brag about to your friends. We currently use .NET, but if you think we will be more effective if we write code in some other language like Ruby, Python, Clojure, etc and you can show us how to integrate it with our existing experiences, we will be very happy because we would love to code in different languages too :P.
We will pay you well. You will be given equity. We are funded by Vinod Khosla, Gray Ghost, USAID and a few more incredible backers. When we achieve our mission and go from 3 million to hundreds of millions of users, you will be very rich. In the end though, we want you to want this job because you want all that technical genius in your head to directly benefit millions of people across the earth, who frankly, were not lucky enough to be you.
