WORKING AT YORBA

We're now looking to hire more software engineers to join our team. If hired, you will work on Shotwell, on Geary or on another photo-related project currently in an early stage of development.

We're a non-profit group funded by donations and we can't pay you as much as that boring bank job, but we offer the following:

  • The opportunity to work on cutting-edge multimedia software using cool open source technologies such as GNOME, GTK+ and Vala.
  • A work location in San Francisco's Mission District, easily accessible by public transportation and surrounded by zillions of restaurants and cool nightlife.
  • A great team to work with: we are friendly and enthusiastic and have years of open source experience.
  • Flexible vacation (six weeks per year including holidays) and health insurance benefits.

Here's what we're looking for from you:

  • You have a computer science degree or equivalent expertise gained through work experience.
  • You can write C code in your sleep. You are also very proficient in at least one object-oriented language such as Java or C#.
  • You can jump into a project with many thousands of lines of code and be productive within days.
  • You like usable graphical interfaces. You probably prefer gedit to editors such as Emacs or vi.
  • You like to think about design decisions - both about user interface decisions and coding/architectural decisions.
  • You are a team player and have a strong work ethic. You get along with others easily.
  • You have permission to work in the U.S. and can work with us at least four days per week in our office in San Francisco.
  • You are excited about open source software and about changing the world.

If this sounds like you, we'd love to hear from you! Send your resume to jobs@yorba.org.
