San Francisco, CA | REMOTE OK in the US | US based only | Experienced Full Stack Rails Developer | Stitch Fix | Full-time

Hello, we're continuing to do a ton of hiring at Stitch Fix. I'm responsible for a small team working on cross functional projects; Last year we worked on expanding Stitch Fix to support Mens clothing, and then we also built the engine that drives Stitch Fix's Style Profile and made it more flexible. We work closely with the Data Science team, and our goal is always to serve our customers better using the information they provided while not being creepy :-)

Stitch Fix is a clothing / style personalization service. Search Instagram for #stitchfix, which will tell you a whole lot about us, how much our customers love us and you'll get an idea of our business. Come back when you're done.

There are a slew of other super interesting open dev roles across Stitch Fix, including in:

    * the Consumer Facing team
    * the Warehouse Tools teams
    * the Styling Tools teams
    * (and many others)

On mobile I’ve been using incignito mode exclusively. This prevents a lot of tracking, and bonus is it avoids many paywalls. I’m liking it so far - might try to do the same on desktop.

Even the body...as I was reading it, when I kept seeing new acronyms defined and used it sounded almost comedic. It reminded me of some talk or something I've seen somewhere where the made up acronyms end up being really funny description words like ("and this we call a PAININTHEASS process"). Can't remember what that was though.

The "edit" button is gone...do you want me to re-post the message without the ascii art and you can delete this one? (but then I lose my spot in the chronological order)
