What's it built with?

That description sounds like exactly who Twitter would want to hire. Knowing Scala beforehand isn't a requirement; I certainly didn't. It's possible that by sending the resume only to a specific engineering manager, it got lost in the shuffle. Have you tried following up, and/or contacting recruiting?

Elaborate?

Github has remote employees.

You can run their scripts in an iframe, e.g.:

There's no way they have 1MM DAU. People play that once and then leave.

We've historically had waaay more engineers than marketers on twitter's growth team. We look at growth less as marketing and more about optimizing (through ux, design, experiment, machine-learning, analytics, etc) all of our possible distribution channels with respect to a set of core metrics.

We lean towards teaching good generalist programmers how to do "growth," which actually doesn't feel much like marketing in day-to-day practice.

If this is something you'd like to do for twitter, and you have javascript, rails, and/or java/scala chops, or you're just a damn good generalist engineer who can pick up anything, send me an email at lzmfAuxjuufs/dpn.
