How to Apply

In order to help us identify the best candidates, and let them stand out from the crowd, we’re not posting an email to apply. Instead we’re posting a PUZZLE! Solve the puzzle to get our e-mail address!  (No cheating by applying through other channels) Note it’s not meant to be especially tricky, but you should pay attention to detail to avoid getting the wrong numbers! Here’s the puzzle:

a = ROUND(ABS(-FV(0.1, 12, 500)), 0)
b = The closing share price of the S&P 500 index on December 29th 2023, rounded to the nearest 1,000
c = The year our domain name (the site you’re currently looking at) was originally registered
d = a + b + c (add, don’t concatenate)

The email to apply is the number represented by d @ our domain name.

When you figure it out, send us an email to that address with your resume, send us something you’ve created or tell us about a project that you’re proud of, and tell us a bit about yourself! Note that for the jobs we’ve posted in the past, we got over 200 applications so please give yourself the best chance to stand out! 🙂
