Working at NeedFeed

Early stage

We are very early stage. The decisions we're making now will have a lasting impact on our product and company culture. Everything you do will have a direct impact on our success.

Agile

We push code daily, make decisions quickly (based on data), test product ideas cheaply before committing resources to build them, and iterate constantly. We think that for the right people, this is the only way to work.

Benefits

Health, HSA, and dental premiums are 100% covered for employees. Pre-IPO stock options. Plus, we offer Task Rabbit to help with errands and other workday distractions.

Entrepreneurs wanted

We want to work with people who aspire to one day start something themselves.

To that end, we offer bi-weekly presentations on topics including fundraising, metrics, startup HR, A/B testing, and customer development.

Also, since we pair program, it makes it much easier when people want to move on to pursue their own thing—the knowledge doesn't walk out the door.

User-driven

Everyone at NeedFeed participates in usability testing. We believe that watching real people use our product is the best way to inspire new ideas, get everyone on the same page, and keep us focused on what matters.

Everyone is an owner

At NeedFeed, you'll be treated like a co-owner. Everyone gets company credit cards (the real kind, where you don't get the bill) and the freedom to buy what they need to get the job done.

Making 'social' useful

We believe that social software can be more than a way to kill time. We're building something useful and truly satisfying to use. Great social software should strengthen friend relationships, not cheapen them.

Food

We all need feed. Free breakfast, wide selection of beverages, lunch 2+ times per week. You'll never go hungry and we'll try to keep you healthy.

Environment

We find that the best products come from close-knit, cross-functional, well-supported teams. The close-knit part means one room for the team. No cubicles! By cross-functional, we mean you'll be working with a diverse group of people, as peers. Well-supported means that we'll make sure you have what you need to get the job done. It also means no BS: no politics, no crazy hours, no drama.

What we look for

We are looking for people who are outstanding in their field and are also collaborative, communicative, and fun to work with. Skills first, experience second. If you're an engineer, expect a programming test.
