Company
| Artsicle |
| Artsicle is the place to discover your taste in art and rent or purchase original artwork to enjoy on your walls. But it’s also more than that. It is a unique opportunity to influence art history by supporting today's emerging talent. It is a chance to develop real relationships with talented local artists. And it is a way to keep your walls fresh and vibrant, with the ability to change your artwork over time.
We're working with emerging artists to rent their original artwork to individuals and companies nationwide, starting at just $25 a month. You can keep the artwork for as short as a month or as long as you like, and all along you’ll be supporting today's artists to continue developing their talent. We think it’s the perfect storm - democratized, no-intimidation access to art for new collectors and a sustainable way to make a living for artists. |

Artsicle interns will learn about startup life, tech, the art world, and what it means to build something. You'll be exposed to a ton of other great startups, mentors, investors.

Check out the description below and apply!
Here at Artsicle, we believe in getting our hands dirty across the full stack, from the CSS to our EC2 servers. Artsicle's CTO is a self-taught developer - so don't worry about not having a CS degree. However, what comes with being self-taught is not to fearing the unknown and knowing how to jump in and learn just about anything.
Artsicle is looking for self motivated developers who don't cringe at the thought of stepping outside their comfort zone, or the idea of taking a customer support call. Artsicle is a small team and it's very likely that you'll do everything from wire a piece of art to tweak our recommendation algorithm - it's a great way to become a jack of all trades. If you believe in learning new skills while excelling at your current ones, then Artsicle is the place for you.
Our Stack - MySQL, Redis, Memcached, Linux, Ruby, Rails, and front end stuffs (HTML, CSS, JS/Coffeescript)
Requirements:
HTML & CSS - If you don't know HTML & CSS, start learning here. A strong understanding is quick and invaluable.
Programming Language - We don't care what language but proficiency in one will help you learn another.
Keen Eye for Design - You care that that font is 24px, not 23px.
Strong Writing & Communication - Clear writing skills and a confident opinion will help you communicate with the team.
Start-up attitude - We're passionate about what we do, and we want you to be too.
Get it Done - You feel comfortable doing things, even when no one is telling you exactly what to do.
Great to have:
Interested In - Going deep in Javascript, the good parts of course. Knowledge of Coffeescript is even better.
Git - or subversion, mercurial etc.
Twitter Bootstrap - it makes communication and responsiveness a lot easier.
SASS - A great superset of CSS
A bit of photoshop knowledge always helps
If you don't meet the above criteria yet, here are a few steps to help you get there:
Learn to Program - a fantastic get started book.
Rails Tutorial - Not only do you build Twitter but you learn some up to date techniques such as TDD.
Build something (anything), push it to the world and tell us about it. |
