San Francisco, CA

Usable Security Systems is looking for a world-class engineer to lead our front-end development. Join a small team that is passionate about solving one of the most important problems in computing -- building security systems that people can use. You'll be the lead architect, designer and implementer of Usable's front-end systems, work with the latest technologies (and problems) and have great autonomy in your work.

Things that must describe you:
    * You want to build systems that people love to use.
    * You're an expert in the languages and standards of the web: Javascript, DOM, D/XHTML, and CSS.
    * You know Ruby and Rails and/or Merb.
    * You are accustomed to working closely with user interaction and graphic designers.
    * You have experience building prototypes and responding rapidly to user feedback.

Other things that would be bonus:
    * You have experience with Flash, Flex, and Actionscript 3.0.
    * You know how to build browser extensions and add-ons.
    * You have a graduate degree or equivalent experience in computer science, software engineering, human-computer interaction, computer/network security, and/or distributed systems.
    * You are active and visible in the technical community through open source and standards contributions or publishing and speaking.
    * You can write and communicate effectively and enjoy working with other people, both technical and non-technical.
    * You're sophisticated about software development, including the tools, process, team, and community aspects.
    * You're a leader. You can build the first version of a new system and steward its future development.

This is full time position, based in San Francisco, CA (near South Park and walking distance to BART and Caltrain). Salary is commensurate with experience and includes health benefits and stock options.

Join us, and help build systems that are easy to use and hard to defeat. Please apply by sending a resume and pointers to your work to jobs@usable.com.
