Segment.io, San Francisco (YC)
Segment.io is a web analytics API. We let web companies install analytics once, and then send their data anywhere they need it with the flip of a switch.
Our libraries all are all open source, including analytics.js (<a href="https://github.com/segmentio/analytics.js" >https://github.com/segmentio/analytics.js</a>), server-side languages, iOS and Android... we launched in January and now process over a billion API calls a month for thousands of websites.
Segment.io has four founders. Calvin and Ilya studied CS at MIT, Ian studied Graphic Design at RISD, and Peter studied Aerospace Engineering at MIT.
We're hiring our first employee, and our bar is going to be extremely high. We're looking for a full stack javascript programmer, with experience with node.js and backbone. You almost certainly know another language like Clojure or Python. Your responsibilities would include:
+ Becoming a core maintainer of <a href="https://github.com/segmentio/analytics.js" >https://github.com/segmentio/analytics.js</a>, which runs on tens of millions of computers every month, growing fast.
+ Building the Segment.io app where users manage their analytics services and data. We use component, d3.js, socket.io, and node.js.
Shoot us an email if you're interested!
