It ain't easy running a site with 71M+ users and 27M+ reviews, but we do it with just a few people. This team does it all. They tame MySQL replication one day, implement a brand-new feature the next, and push it all out that night.

Build systems that are simple and scale
Command of your favorite modern programming language: Python, Ruby, Java, Objective-C, C++, etc
Comprehensive computer-science fundamentals
Excitement about the challenges of internationalization
Comfortable working in a Unix environment
Excellent typing ability in the presence of flying nerf darts
