Aventura Labs - New York, NY
Aventura Labs is an early stage company whose mission is to assemble great algorithmists, programmers, and designers to solve hard problems.
I've spent the past year bootstrapping the first product, Just the List, which focuses on making wedding planning fast and fun. The product is near complete, but also has an awesome roadmap of upcoming features. Beta-tester feedback has been outstanding. For more info, please check out the soon-to-be-released home page can be found here:

You'll be joining on as number two at the company. You should love learning, solving hard problems, and be interested in culture building. You should believe that unicorns are made, not born :) You should also be familiar with most of the technologies in our stack: Node/Express, Javascript/Coffeescript, MongoDB, Redis and Backbone.
I'm hiring a variety of roles which may include summer interns, developers, a CTO, and a community manager. We'll be working on a pretty full combination of improving/writing new algorithms, performing data analysis, automating front-end testing (backend testing is largely completed), and building intuitive and beautiful user experiences.
I've open-sourced the underlying task queue at <a href="https://github.com/brandoncarl/taskco" >. I'd like to open-source a few of the other technologies as the team grows.
Please contact me at REDACTED_EMAIL for more details.
