Atlanta, GA - MailChimp (http://mailchimp.com)

Software Engineer

+++++ What we're looking for +++++

* Solid engineers. We don't care about pedigree or what languages or stacks you've worked in, we just want great engineers. In fact, if you don't want to "polish up the ole resume" and want to send code instead, that's great with us (though we'll take a resume in lieu of code).

* Developers who will thrive without explicit supervision or constant guidance.

* Developers located anywhere, but willing to work in Atlanta. We allow for flexible hours and some telecommute options, but you've got to be in the office here in downtown Atlanta on a regular basis. Relocation is an option.

+++++ Why it's great to work here +++++

* While we agree that PHP isn't the world's greatest language (http://blog.mailchimp.com/ewww-you-use-php/), it's our main language and our framework allows us to get a lot done without feeling the pain of PHP.

* We do use other languages also, such as python, C and more - http://blog.mailchimp.com/language-at-mailchimp/

* Our scale is interesting and fun and just keeps growing - http://blog.mailchimp.com/mailchimp-numbers/

* We are allowed to be creative. We're actually required to. Without process, managers, and meetings getting in the way, we get to concentrate on what we love to do without barriers - http://www.fastcocreate.com/1679207/creative-cultures-mailch...
