Hi!


I’m Sam, and I do Analytics at Thumbtack, which is a marketplace for 
local services. We’re looking for new-grad software engineers. I started 
at Thumbtack after graduating in 2015 and have thoroughly enjoyed the 
new-grad experience at the company, which has a great culture and a 
beautiful office 
<http://www.officelovin.com/2015/03/05/exclusive-look-inside-thumbtacks-cool-san-francisco-headquarters/> 
in SOMA in San Francisco. In a nutshell, Thumbtack allows anyone to hire 
professionals to get their personal projects done, but description below 
goes into more detail.


If you’re interested in learning more about Thumbtack and the role, 
shoot me an email at sfinegold at thumbtack.com 
<mailto:sfinegold at thumbtack.com>.


Best,


Sam


A little more background on Thumbtack: Thumbtack helps you hire a 
photographer for your wedding, a handyman for your home, a math tutor 
for your child, and 1000+ other types of pros. Think of us as Amazon for 
local services. We've been building the foundation of Thumbtack 
under-the-radar for the last few years and the pieces have finally come 
together: in the last year and a halfwe've raised $225M

are hiring 100+ at ourSF office 
<http://www.officelovin.com/2015/03/05/exclusive-look-inside-thumbtacks-cool-san-francisco-headquarters/>this 
year, and our 250,000+ small business owners are on pace to earn well 
over $1B on Thumbtack in the year ahead. (You can check out the 
inspiring story of just one of our pros who started their small business 
on Thumbtack here:Sara Elise, Personal Chef 
<https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bruu4u_Z-SY>). We're at that very 
special and rare startup point where we have massive product-market fit 
and lots of momentum/dry powder ($170M in the bank) but we are still a 
small team (eng team is only 60). We'll be experiencing massive growth 
the next few years which will create amazing opportunities for someone 
like yourself who joins now.
