Senior Software Development Engineer - A2Z Development Center (An Amazon.com Company), Palo Alto
heysanfrancisco_5365 May 22 4:05pmhttp://sanfrancisco.heyclassifieds.com/img/post_no_image_sm.jpg Senior Software Development Engineer - A2Z Development Center (An Amazon.com Company), Palo Alto UnSpun UnSpun by Amazon is a product being developed by A2Z Development Center, Palo Alto (a wholly-owned subsidiary of Amazon.com). UnSpun allows a community of users to create, populate, and vote on lists, to find the best, the worst, and the most interesting in any category. UnSpun got started as a sample application of Amazon¹s Mechanical Turk service, but we got a bit carried away when we realized how fun and useful the lists and rankings are.
We saw that existing methods for community collaboration on the Web aren't good at developing consensus rankings. If you do a web search for sexiest movies, you might find websites that have lists of sexiest movies, but each will be the opinion of the individual who authored that website. UnSpun fills that niche by providing a platform for community consensus rankings.
UnSpun provides a type of data that really isn¹t available elsewhere on the web. Our data appears on on our own site, integrated on the Amazon.com site, and on sites across the internet through our RSS feeds and interactive widgets. Your contributions will expand the usefulness, reach, and reliability of our data‹making UnSpun the place to go for any kind of community rankings.
Role
You will be responsible for the architecture and implementation of UnSpun. This will include design, engineering, and implementation of new features, as well as scaling of UnSpun by integrating the current systems with Amazon Web Services systems.
Environment
You will be part of a small team that is focused on designing, building, and running UnSpun. We get to work, get things done, and have plenty of time for our personal lives. We conceive of ideas, bounce them off one-another, and implement them. On a day-to-day basis, 99% of your time will be conceiving, designing, and coding (with little time spent in meetings and other activities that get in the way of delivering product).
UnSpun has its own office space in the heart of downtown Palo Alto, just steps from the CalTrain station.
Qualifications
5+ years experience in software development with a track record of delivering products (Bachelors degree (Masters/PhD preferred) or equivalent experience)
Experience developing and operating highly available, highly reliable systems in a 24x7 environment
Able to work as a member of a distributed development team
Excellent verbal and written communication skills
Able to handle multiple competing priorities in a fast-paced environment
You should have the following technical skills:
Ruby or Ruby on Rails, or a willingness to learn it (and demonstrable expert-level proficiency in another OO language like Java or C++)
Javascript, CSS, JSON, and DHTML
Linux and the command-line tools for analyzing a running system, automating jobs, and running a website.
SQL with full tool belt for tuning the MySQL stack from queries and indexes all the way back to server variables
Scalable website architectures ("LAMP", caching, "share nothing"
architectures, distributed software, etc.)
Compensation
We offer competitive compensation packages, including comprehensive health, dental, and vision care, stock grants, 401(k) with matching, parking, Caltrain passes, and Amazon.com discount.
Join Us!

Product Management Intern
heysanfrancisco_5249 May 19 6:05pmhttp://sanfrancisco.heyclassifieds.com/img/post_no_image_sm.jpg Interested in software product management? Want to know what it really means? This internship might be for you.
Join Omniture’s San Francisco office as a product management intern on the Test&Target product. See how we optimize websites and let marketers change and test content on their sites without changing any code on their page. We’re creating the largest focus groups in the world and making the Internet more personalized to you.
You’ll be part of a small team with a startup vibe that is part of one of the fastest growing software companies in the world. FastCompany just named us one of the most innovative companies in the world. And the office is right in SoMA in San Francisco, just 2 blocks from AT&T Park.
So, what exactly is a product manager and what will you do?
At the highest level, the product manager is responsible for the product we release to the world. You are the customer’s voice and ensure that the product we deliver exceeds our customer’s needs (even if they don’t know they have them yet). You decide which features get prioritized, what the interface design should look like, and how to introduce all the new features and enhancements to customers and prospects.
What do you do on a daily basis?
The product management team works very closely with the engineering team at Omniture. You’ll be involved in developing requirements and then confirming those requirements in functional specs to make sure that what gets built meets the initial requirements.
You might spend some time designing an interface for new features—how do we display this extra information in reports? How do people want to preview new images for their site? How do our users share their results with their boss?
A couple times a week we brainstorm with the engineering team. How might we tackle this task? How do our customers want to interact with this thing?
What we’re looking for in an intern:
Someone who has design on the mind. You like doing UI mockups, and convincing others of why your design is the best. You have some programming knowledge, and know some JavaScript and are pretty well-versed in HTML. You’re good at coming up with creative solutions to problems. You like using Gmail more than Outlook, and think the new web 2.0-style web applications are pretty slick. You’re excited to learn new software and add new ideas to the mix. You work well in teams and are interested in talking to customers.
We’re looking for an incoming junior or senior majoring in one of these disciplines: Product Design, Computer Science, Business, Management Science and Engineering, Psychology, Human-Computer Interaction, or Science, Technology & Society. If you’re majoring in something a bit different, that can work too.

Excited about the vision? Want to get involved?

* Experience building UIs with a variety of AJAX libraries

* the LAMP stack -- PHP in particular
