We're StyleFeeder and we're building a personal shopping engine, which basically is a next-generation shopping service. If you're looking for a compelling summer internship hacking code for a high-volume website, let's talk. We'll give you plenty of opportunities to learn about databases, web development, concurrency, performance tuning and usability. We work in a casual, quiet, bureaucracy-free environment right in Central Square where we focus on building great shopping tools for our users.<p>Here's what we're looking for in our candidates:<p>You should know PHP reasonably well. You should ideally have some experience with MySQL. Bonus stuff: version control, Facebook apps, Javascript, Flash (or Flex), Linux. You should have a sense of humor and strong work ethic. We use frameworks where they make sense. If you think frameworks are bad, you'll have to defend that viewpoint during your interview, so be prepared to do so.<p>How to apply:<p>Put together a brief one-page resume and email it to jobs at stylefeeder/com. Include a one-page cover letter describing who you are, what you like to do, and what you want to learn this summer. Send us some code that you wrote that you are proud of and is representative of your skills. If you have a blog, website that you built or any papers that you wrote that we can read, please send those along.<p>We look forward to hearing from you. We have a few openings for interns, so if you want to come and work with some of your qualified friends, that's great.<p>This is a paid internship. You'll be compensated based on your skillset and experience.
