Jobs

Biznik currently has one huge job opening (posted Nov. 23, 2008):

Lead Software Engineer

Biznik is hiring a brilliant software engineer who can lead us on our mission to connect great minds with interesting work. 

About us: Biznik is a social network for forward-thinking business people, currently 20,000 strong, and growing fast. We have a bunch of awards under our belt. We're generating solid revenue. Seattle Business Monthly just named the cofounders to their top 25 list of most innovative entrepreneurs.  

One thing we don't have: venture funding. We prefer pay our own way and chart our own course.

Required skills:

• 3+ years of web application development, at least 1+ with Rails. Experience with large applications (high traffic, multiple servers, 24/7 availability) a plus.
• Strong knowledge of open source database tools, e.g. Mysql or Postgresql.
• Familiarity with Linux server management.
• Strong knowledge of OO Javascript, frontend CSS and AJAX development.

These will skip you to the head of the line:

• Experience working on and/or leading agile teams.
• A degree is CS or the equivalent.
• UI and graphic design experience.
• Solid understanding of SEO best practices.

We're looking for a seasoned pro. A proven performer. Someone who has worked on large web applications, and knows how to make them work on a limited budget. Someone who thrives on interesting work, a creative thinker who can deliver in code what the future requires: social software that connects great minds. If that sounds like you, let's talk.
