We’re a small group of fun, highly-motivated Internet geeks. We work hard, and play harder. We’re looking for a few more people who share our passion to join us. Salaries are competitive and benefits include health and dental. You’ll have a chance to work with a rapidly growing start-up in the very early stages. Excitement level is high, and coffee cups are full. We also enjoy kick-ass music while we work.

We’re looking for jedi–level systems administrators who have experience deploying and scaling large Rails applications. You’ll be responsible for making sure iList is up, stable, and blazing fast. You should be passionate about what you do, and your attention to detail should be borderline annoying. You’ll need to keep us safe from system issues, performance crunches, and daily hiccups.
