/learning languages quickly and being a really smart engineer are nearly the same thing/ Only if we're thinking of formally specified computing languages. Since it's a world travel business that demands just a few lines later that you travel around the world as part of your job responsibilities, I read the requirement as refering* to natural languages. I think an ad like this could work for a small, high profile startup like this but it should really take a line to say, "we mostly write all this in [RoR|Arc|Django|Objective-C] and need to keep [Oracle|Psotgres|MySQL] back ends tuned." That way we'd have some clue what to expect. * Look, I'm qualified to write web standards.
