Front-End Hacker QLABS NYC
2 points by cdanzig on June 20, 2012 | hide | past | favorite
Overview:

QLabs is a world-class tech incubator based in Noho, NY. We’re a small group of hackers who rapidly prototype new technology products every 10 weeks and then test them in the market for long-term potential. Our primary focus is the consumer web and industries ripe for disruption, though we’ve been know to experiment across a broad spectrum. We’re about to graduate our first product, Huntsy, and are proving an exciting new model for incubating startups.

We are funded by a publicly traded technology company- this means competitive salaries, corporate perks, full benefits etc etc. We are are a small team that works quickly and collaboratively. There is an extremely flat management structure which means we succeed or fail as a team.

Here’s some examples of the products that we’ve built over the past year: http://huntsy.com http://framey.com http://bromly.com http://mixnomer.com
