About Polyvore Engineering

Each month, Polyvore.com has 13 million unique visitors, 200 million
impressions, and 1.2 million sets created using our virtual styling tool.
Our software engineers develop platforms and tools that harness the
creativity of our user community, empowering expression and enabling
distribution of their user generated content. We hire software engineers
with a broad set of skills who are ready to build, scale, and make a
continual impact. We have a philosophy of doing a few things really well-
allowing you to own your piece of the company strategy. We constantly try
new things and have removed process hurdles so you can focus on what you do
best - building great stuff!

About You

Simply put: you are smart, nice, and curious. You love building, scaling,
and improving products that have millions of users. You’re a hacker with
pristine code. You’re a creative force, excited and ready to tackle
anything that comes your way. You think collaboration takes more than a
weekly meeting. You don’t just want to learn, you crave the constant
challenge. You measure everything. You appreciate transparency and want
input into the product direction.

About This Job

We’re seeking someone to spread Polyvore’s presence around the web, make
sharing content intuitive, and to drive traffic back to Polyvore. Your
skills should include familiarity with authentication standards such as
OAuth, APIs like Facebook and Twitter, and blogging platforms like Tumblr
and Blogger. You’ll be creating software at all levels of the development
stack, from front-end interfaces to back-end analytics.

Required skills:

•  BS or MS in Computer Science or equivalent 
•  Web development experience, preferably on a LAMP platform
