Swiftype is building search software for the next generation of websites and applications, and we're looking for great engineers to help us build out our infrastructure and product line. We're a small team of highly technical, product-focused engineers with extensive search experience. As a small team, we're looking for early engineers who are self-motivated, resourceful, and enjoy the accountability that is expected from early-stage team members. We launched in May 2012, are very well-funded, and are growing very quickly.

+ Experience with open source Search software, especially Lucene/ElasticSearch/Solr.
+ Experience with Ruby.
+ Experience with Scala and/or Go.

+ Familiarity with developer-facing APIs (standards, protocols, testing, etc.).
+ Familiarity with server operations and administration.
+ Practical experience with information retrieval algorithms.
What we offer:
+ A chance to work on some of the most interesting problems on the web, while building a product that serves a pervasive need.
+ A chance to push production code that reaches 10s of millions of users every day.
+ We don't ship junk, our codebase is not a mess, and we use the right technologies for the job. You will be joining a team of experienced engineers who get a lot done.
+ Competitive salary and significant equity stake.
+ A beautiful, quiet office space in San Francisco.
+ Health and dental benefits.
