Mason | Seattle, WA | Full-Time | ONSITE | Back-End, Front-End, Systems Engineers
US: We're Mason, a YC-backed (W16) company building mobile deployment infrastructure that allows any company to create their own Android-based device ecosystem. Think privately owned and managed device fleet and cloud.
YOU: An engineer with 2+ years of experience and/or a CS background, and the right attitude (<a href="). We're fully aware of "imposter syndrome", so don't let a job description keep you from applying. If the idea that you will experiment, learn, build, ship, and grow with the rest of us appeals to you, don't think twice about contacting us. Our most immediate need is for people that can take on backend work (Node/Python/etc.), frontend/UI work, and AOSP hacking/embedded Linux/drivers/systems work.
WHY MASON? We're a small company aspiring to build very large things. We're 10 now and looking to grow. Selected perks:
- This is not "ground floor", more like a "basement" opportunity. Define, build and ship foundational stuff for Mason.
- We value diversity of thought, being and experience.
- Dogs welcome.
- A fully stocked pantry, and an actual kitchen.

Unfortunately we're unable to handle H1Bs at the moment.
WHERE? We're based in gorgeous SEATTLE, one of the few YC-backed ones here, with sweeping views of Cap Hill, and no parking issues (not a typo, I can vouch for this).
PROCESS: 30 minute chat (in person or Hangouts) - offline coding and work sample evaluation - on-site interview - offer. We delete parts of this workflow for the right candidate.
