Want more reasons to work at Maker? The engineering environment is exceptional. Maker's CTO is a computer scientist himself who still codes regularly, and we have a very programmer-friendly workplace:
You decide the technology  - The engineer who's writing the code has the final vote on which technologies get used. We use APIs to cross-connect our projects with ease, which also enables us to use different languages in different projects.
Flexible work hours - come in as early or late as you want, as long as your total hours are on par with your peers; what really matters is the quality and quantity of your code commits.
Code intelligently - We hack, but we also care about sharing code with each other, so we talk about readability and complexity, we develop all modules as though they'll one day be open-sourced, and we believe in small tools used cleverly, at scale.
Open Source friendly-  Besides using mostly open-source tools, we've open-sourced several internally developed tools on <a href="https://github.com/MakerStudios/" >, and more are coming.
Great benefits - We have amazing investors and we want healthy, enthusiastic employees, so we offer our engineers a highly competitive salary, top-notch health/dental/vision coverage, 401(k), and stock options.
