FortyTwo — Mountain View, CA — Frontend / mobile / backend (H1B okay, read below)
Hi all, I'm Andrew from FortyTwo. We're a well-funded Series A startup (~10 engineers) in Mountain View building <a href="https://www.kifi.com/" >. It's a lot more than a bookmarking service: we're building a search engine and content discovery system that blows away what's out there by letting you organize everything super easily, while not asking you to change your searching habits. We have a product that we love, and have lots to do still.
Right now, we're looking hard for:
• Frontend - we're building a cross-browser browser extension and a site using AngularJS. Ideal candidate is very comfortable with JavaScript, at least one backend (non-JS) language, and has used a thick-client MV* style framework. Full description is here: <a href="http://www.42go.com/frontend.html" >
• Mobile - we're building a soon-to-be-released iOS client as well as starting an Android client. Ideal candidate has experience releasing consumer mobile products, and has strong engineering skills to make an efficient and pleasant to use app. More here: <a href="http://www.42go.com/join_us.html#mobile" >
• Backend / Full stack - we use Scala, Play!, and Akka to build a highly-available, reactive backend to serve our clients. Ideal candidate has experience on the JVM, functional programming, and continuous deployment. More here: <a href="http://www.42go.com/join_us.html#backend" >
We blog at <a href="http://eng.42go.com" >, so check out some of the stuff we're working on. We're okay to sponsor H1Bs, but prefer Bay Area candidates already so we can move faster. To apply, email REDACTED_EMAIL with your resume/github/LinkedIn.
