Hi, we're Hyperink and we're building a new kind of book publisher.<p>We're a team of 5, and are looking for a backend engineer to join us.<p>[Who are we?]<p>We’re a team of 5 with diverse backgrounds (shopkick, Google, McKinsey, Microsoft, Simon & Schuster) and we’ve published our own ebooks in the past (one is making more than $100K/year). Our office is in SoMa, near South Park.<p>We were in the Winter 2011 batch. We're backed by some incredible VCs and angels.<p>[What are we looking for in a backend engineer?]<p>We’re looking for someone who has a team-first, “get-shit-done” attitude. Someone who is comfortable wearing multiple hats, and who enjoys learning new stuff.<p>We currently use Wordpress on LAMP and Ruby. We take advantage of the latest HTML5 features and publish to web, iOS, Kindle, and Android.<p>Here are some problems we’re working on:<p>>Solving the content farm problem<p>>Becoming the biggest ebook publisher across multiple channels (ranging from web to Kindle to iOS)<p>>Turning book publishing upside down by making it demand driven – predicting what people will want to buy and then publishing on those topics<p>>Identifying, harvesting, and monetizing the best content across the web<p>>Making everything really fast!<p>[Why should you work with us?]<p>Besides solving tough problems in an industry badly in need of change, you get all the early startup benefits (lots of stock, a decent salary, and health insurance).<p>This is an important hire for us. If you’re interested, please email kevin[at]hyperinkpress.com and we’ll respond in 24 hours. We like to move fast.<p>Thanks!<p>-The Hyperink Team
