MUST HAVES
###############

Are your fundamentals of Ruby extremely clear? Have you read Meta 
Programming in Ruby in-and-out? Do you know Rails, as a consequence of 
knowing Ruby and not vice-versa? 

---
PREFERENCES:
---

* You are a geek at heart and you code for fun.
* You contribute to open source.

###############
JOB PERKS
###############

We have an extremely fun filled, chilled out, yet demanding work 
environment. As an employer, our objective is to provide you with anything 
and everything, that is within our reach and you need to become the 
best-in-class at what you are supposed to do. 

---
Common perks:
---

* Free food - breakfast, lunch, dinner
* A bed to bunk (if required)
* Eat-what-you-hunt - intrapreneural culture
* Contribute to open source
* Books, software, hardware, conferences, training or anything else that 
moves us forward professionally
* Connections to pros in your domain to network and seek advice

delivery, mobile recharge, grocery shopping, etc. Tell us and we will try 
our best to reduce these impediments for you so you can focus on what 
matters.
* Want to chill post office hours or on weekends? Our office is in one of 
Mumbai's nicest localities, 5 minutes walking from Juhu beach, Hare Krishna 
Temple, PVR Cinemas, Pubs, Coffee Shops, one of Mumbai's oldest ice cream 
parlour and Malls.

Perks specific to you:
---

* Our data engineer was processing a lot of data but his laptop could not 
handle the load. So we bought him a Mac Mini Server with 16GB RAM.
* We also try our best to accomodate cultural / religious preferences or 
needs.

Hence, exact list of perks varies from case to case.

---
The bad part:
---

* If you are not a geek at heart, you will find it tough to survive.
* You start working really hard. We are consumed by our work and pretty 
much are always thinking about it.
* You will have two families to think about. We eat together, party 
together, chill together, attend music festivals together or run marathons 
together.
* We expect you to master ONE thing for starters. We do not like 
generalists. We need people who can say I-am-the-best-at-what-I-do.
* Take initiative, be responsible and take ownership of what you do. No 
spoon feeding and no 9-to-6.
* You do not take random leaves every month. We simply do not like the "I m 
not well every fortnight" variety.
* You will find a new love - entrepreneurship. It will make everything else 
less extra-ordinary. We give you a lot of responsibilities. It can be very 
demanding.
