I noticed that GPA is also required for recruiter applications; SpaceX is a really interesting company that's been on my radar for a long time, but seeing this is a huge turnoff. The best recruiters I know probably don't remember their GPA from college and some of them were so busy traveling around the world exploring during college that their GPA would only be a tiny detail in the overall narrative of their lives. Seems like a very short-sighted requirement (and means otherwise qualified and impressive candidates may never apply).

Pandora (Internet Radio) -- Senior Security Engineer and Security Analyst, Oakland, CA (2 blocks from BART) -- ONSITE, FT POSITIONS

At Pandora, we're building out our application security team; we have two open roles currently. Both are full-time, onsite positions at our Oakland, CA HQ (and we have a great relocation plan if you aren't in the Bay area already):

1) Senior Application Security Engineer. In this role, you'd have a direct impact to the business, work closely with our C-level staff, and really helping drive decisions around app security. Link to job description is: http://bit.ly/1LFXOnR.

2.Security Analyst, Web Apps. Looking for someone with really strong analytical and scripting skills; could be a great fit for someone with a passion for mobile application security who doesn't have as many years of professional web/app security experience. Must have experience testing large-scale applications, excellent opportunity for career growth at Pandora. Link for that one is http://bit.ly/1RkZztU.

You can apply to the positions directly @ the link above, but feel free to reach out to me directly if you want more information on the roles or have questions! My email is [email protected]. (I'm an in-house recruiter/sourcer at Pandora. My LinkedIn is https://www.linkedin.com/in/ashleydoyal.)

Pandora | Oakland, CA | Backend java developers at all levels, prefer noSQL database XP and multi-threading XP

Do you love music? Want to see your work impact the lives of hundreds of millions of people? If so, our music engineering team at Pandora could be a fit! This team works with the data of our 250+ million users to maintain and improve our listeners' experience. We're backend Java engineers, are highly visible within the org, and make a direct impact on our product by partnering with our scientists and product managers analyzing huge amounts of user data. We owned Pandora's integration with Google NOW and are generally working on interesting and exciting tech.

We deploy on Linux, code primarily in Java, use Python for scripting, Postgres for traditional DB and Redis for noSQL DB solution, interact with Hadoop/Hive (so any exposure to big data tech is a plus).

We're based in Oakland (and love it here) and have a very flexible remote work environment combined with a more traditional onsite setup. A good example: the team I work on is in the office M-TH 10am-4pm and Friday is an unofficial everyone work from home day. WFH because of kids, pets, doctors appts, etc. is normal and expected; this is not your normal clock-punch corporate environment.

Competitive comp, equity packages, bonus structure, good benefits, 40 hours of paid volunteer time each year, and all kinds of other work/life oriented perks come with our full time gigs. Happy to talk to anyone who is even remotely curious about this (or other engineering roles)! We're hiring!
