Academia.edu helps academics follow the latest research in their field. Here are a few bullet points that sum up the atmosphere in our team:
- obsession with exceptional engineering
- obsession with building a great web product, and a great user experience
- intellectually inquisitive - we like delving into ideas, whatever the ideas are about
- fun and friendly - we enjoy each other's company a lot, and have a great deal of respect for each other.
We want to continue this atmosphere through the people we hire.
Here are some of the technologies we work with: Rails, Nginx, Node.js, Redis, Memcached. We are based in downtown San Francisco. More information about the team, and about how we think about software engineering and product development, is here http://academia.edu/hiring http://academia.edu/hiring
- puredemo 16y agoHow did you get a *.edu domain?
- stevanl 16y agoMost likely that they bought it (in 2007?) from someone that registered it before 29 Oct 2001. From http://net.educause.edu/edudomain/eligibility.asp http://net.educause.edu/edudomain/eligibility.asp : "Why do some institutions that do not meet the eligibility criteria have .edu domain names? According to the Cooperative Agreement between EDUCAUSE and the U.S. Department of Commerce, all .edu names in existence as of October 29, 2001, are "grandfathered." This means that everyone who already had a .edu name by that date (October 29, 2001), regardless of current or past eligibility requirements, is allowed to keep those .edu names." Whois info: Domain record activated: 10-May-1999 Domain record last updated: 03-Sep-2007 Domain expires: 31-Jul-2011
