We are aggressively hiring. Most job descriptions aren't up yet, but will be posted in the next few days. Here is a quick list of high priority positions:
Email [email protected] -- we'd love to hear from you.

Is it weird that I find the Technical writer/developer advocate position fun?
For the right person, it is fun! Shoot me an e-mail to [email protected] ? I couldn't find your e-mail in the profile/website/github.
Ah, I'm not in the US. :) Just never heard/thought of the title before, but it caught my eye and I thought I would enjoy that kind of work more than just being a developer.
Are you open to relocation? We can help take care of the logistics for the right candidate.
I don't seem like a good fit for any of these positions (Java/C++ engineer >.<), but I'd love to learn more about database internals and how things work and how to make them better. Is there much to do in that area, or is it pretty much complete? Should I just pick a bug and try to fix it, or is there some process to follow >.<
We're hiring C++ engineers. You don't have to know anything about database internals, but you do have to know C or C++ well and understand all the standard software engineering stuff. (I didn't list this position because it's a less hair on fire sort of thing). Please e-mail me -- [email protected].
As far as getting started on the codebase, we unfortunately don't have a guide/mentorship program yet for hacking on the internals. The best way is probably to pick a really simple bug and try to fix it. I'll see if we can work on making getting started with core contributions easier.
Is it possible to work remotely on any of this positions?
Unfortunately we're not set up to hire remotely. Hiring remotely has to be strongly baked into the culture and we aren't quite ready to do that yet.
We do, however, help with relocation (and even take care of the logistics for people from oversees).
Does that include helping with a H1B visa?
