We're looking for more than just an experienced developer who is an expert in a specific language or technology. We don't care which technologies you are familiar with today. (Of course if you've built an online game or Rich Internet Application using Java, Flex, Hibernate, and scalable client/server socket communications, we'll call you first.)
We're looking for a smart and creative mind rather than a narrow set of skills. We are looking for evidence that you are a great programmer, a self-starter, and a team player. You enjoy working on all aspects of development rather than being a cog in a machine. You believe that customers should drive product definition and evolution; if a user doesn't "get it", that's our bug, not their problem. You can think on your feet, solve problems to which you may not already know the answers, and work together with a team to solve even bigger problems than you could by yourself.
This is a unique startup opportunity:
- You'll be an early technical employee with corresponding opportunities.
- You'll be involved with the "big picture", make key design decisions, and steer the growth of the company.
- We look for smart, creative thinkers, not a collection of buzzwords and skills that are quickly obsolete.
- We have experience creating successful products and companies.
- Technical challenges include issues of user interface, game design, system architecture, operational efficiency, and scalability.
About the Company
Winster is a new type of online game ... with a retail element. The play is cooperative, structured around a visible social community, and players win real prizes. The goal is to appeal to social and shopping instincts of a demographic which is the largest group of Internet game site visitors. It's a novel concept, and we have a great team led by serial entrepreneur Jerry Kaplan, author of Startup: A Silicon ValleyAdventure. The management team has held senior positions at NASA, OnSale (online auction pioneer), Sierra On-Line, GO Corporation (pen based computer pioneer), MetaReward, and NetBlue. This is an opportunity to change the way games and e-commerce work.
