Web Designer/Developer at Dropbox (San Francisco, CA):

Dropbox (http://getdropbox.com) is looking for a talented web designer and developer to join us on our mission to solve sync and sharing for the world.

Our product's been twittered about, featured on blogs like Techcrunch and Lifehacker, has hit the top of both Digg and Reddit and we're still in private beta!

We're a scrappy startup funded originally by YCombinator and staffed almost completely with MIT grads and dropouts. In three words, we're young ('the old one' is 25), small (we roll eight deep), and engineering-heavy (seven coders). And we're pretty convinced we're on the right track to bringing "it just works" simplicity and "how does it work?" technical solidness to the world of online file storage.

We're looking for one more, someone who can bring some strong design skills to the table to make Dropbox even better.

What we're offering:

  - a fast-paced, self-directed environment that will challenge even the best (that's you!)
  - the opportunity to work on a pre-public launch product and shape how the world perceives it
  - awesome location in the heart of downtown San Francisco, near plenty of food, shopping, transportation, and other startups
  - flexible hours, though not neccesarily short. We're trying to get to public launch, here...
  - an actual salary, plus equity in the form of stock options
  - health coverage, including dental
  - a relocation bonus
  - an iphone
  - and, of course, the joy of hanging out with some of the coolest geeks this side of Boston

Who we're looking for:

  - experienced web designer/developer; desktop client UI work in addition gives you bonus points
  - has a pixel-perfect eye and won't stop until every detail is ironed out
  - awesome design sense: able to keep things simple yet functional and appealing
  - awesome user sense: able to make any process feel intuitive and easy, even when it's not
  - expresses strong opinions about both design and code
  - willing to fill in on all sorts of unassigned roles within our startup
  - able to work out of our San Francisco office

Your responsibilities might include:

  - graphic design: photoshopping up buttons, icons, and sundry other visual elements
  - interface/experience design: page layouts and user flows, from mockup to implementation
  - frontend dev: css, html, javascript (we use prototype/scriptaculous), python (we use pylons)
  - copy writing: conversational text for the web interface, desktop client, emails, etc.

If you'd like to apply, shoot an email to jobs@getdropbox.com, detailing your experience and linking to examples of your previous work.
