Well-capitalized start-up seeks extremely talented C/C++/Unix
developers to help pioneer commerce on the Internet.  You must have
experience designing and building large and complex (yet maintainable)
systems, and you should be able to do so in about one-third the time
that most competent people think possible.  You should have a BS, MS,
or PhD in Computer Science or the equivalent.  Top-notch communication
skills are essential.  Familiarity with web servers and HTML would be
helpful but is not necessary.

Expect talented, motivated, intense, and interesting co-workers.  Must
be willing to relocate to the Seattle area (we will help cover moving
costs).

Your compensation will include meaningful equity ownership.

We are an equal opportunity employer.
