About Us
MangoSense is an effort to provide information to people in a way that makes sense.
With a focus on instinct, collaboration and creativity, it radically improves the way people
find and consume information on the web.
Our team is comprised of engineers and thought leaders with practical experiences from life.
We continue to create, collaborate and innovate based on what we learn everyday from life.
While working at startups and fortune 500 companies in previous avatars, we realized that the most common phrase which people
use when they understand something is
"That Makes Sense", yet its heard rarely.
We founded MangoSense to dedicate ourselves on a mission to create products and services that make sense.
Join the Team
You don't have to make sense all the time :) , but these are the people we're looking for right now:
Engineer
We're working on challenging engineering problems that consistently push
our intellectual capabilities to the limits.
We think this makes it more fun to come to work in the morning,
and makes a programmer feel more like a craftsman than a mechanic.
Both founders are engineers, and Mangosense will remain a product/technology-focused company.
This is your opportunity to make sense in an environment full of noise and information overload.
Requirements:
* Capable of "great feats of software"
* Deriving joy from abstracting and refactoring
* Eagerness to roll up your sleeves and tackle the elusive, dirty problems
* Sound judgment for balancing between idealism and pragmatism
Desirable:
* Deep knowledge of front-end Web technologies
* Passion for programming languages, algorithms, databases
* Experience with functional or declarative programming languages
* Interest in both the nitty gritty and the big picture
* Interest in both coding and leadership
Business Person
A versatile leader who can oversee operations internally and represent MangoSense
at an executive level externally. You will be the primary advisor to the founders
on strategy and point-person for execution, freeing them to focus on product
and technology.
You will be responsible for helping with everything from high-level brand strategy to tweaking marketing copy, from closing early deals to building the sales team, from recruiting world-class talent to developing a culture in which they can thrive, from galvanizing the press to inspiring passion in your teammates.
Requirements:
* Significant experience in making companies successful
* Monomaniacal execution ability
* Contagious excitement
* Ability to translate broad vision into decisive action
* Capacity to understand others and make them feel understood
* Software engineering background
Desirable:
* Held senior positions in (consumer) software companies
* Broad personal network of potential coworkers, customers, and partners
* Strong product intuition
Interns
Interns will work on projects directly related to the production of the
company's Web applications, including extending APIs, building apps
and constructing new feature sets. Interns will work alongside a small,
dedicated team including the Co-Founders who pulled it all together.
Ideal candidates will have a passion for building cool products as
well as an interest in what it takes to build and run an NYC startup.
In addition to the above role-specific requirements,
we have expectations that apply to all of our team members.
General Requirements:
* Passion
* Earnestness
* Honesty
* Deep care about users and the user experience
* Fearlessness working outside your comfort zone
* Love of work as an end in itself, not just as a means toward an end
* Ability to admit when wrong
* Patience with others
* Impatience with technology
Generally Desirable:
* Renaissance person who can wear many hats
* Intellectual breadth, beyond software
* Eloquence
* Entrepreneurial (we hope Mangosense will serve as a first-class entrepreneur apprenticeship program)
* Many people would describe you as the best coder/designer/businessperson they know
* Sense of humor
We are passionate about changing the world through great software,
and are looking for exceptional people to join us.
We aim to "establish a place of work where
creators can feel the joy of technological innovation,
be aware of their mission to society, and work to their hearts' content."
You should be ready to make Mangosense a primary focus of your life.
We will be working together, eating together, and playing together,
so you must be willing to work fulltime from our offices.
