If you’ve been following our journey and want to participate, we are hiring for quite a number of positions, including engineering, business operations, and sales.

We are moving our headquarters to San Francisco this summer, so applicants in the Bay Area are preferred, although we also hire remotely and will absolutely consider applicants from anywhere in the world.
I’m more of a full-stack / front-end / mobile developer myself. I will be performing job duties in all 3 of those areas TODAY for my current job. Actually, I’ve only done front-end and mobile development today. I’m waiting for network ops to fix something for me to do the full-stack part.
Why very expensive to live - California ? I live in So. California and SF Bay area is even more expensive than the Happiest Place on Earth area (Disneyland - for those out of state).
I know you guys can run a company from anywhere but, California ? Did you know the state of California owes its State Pension fund over $400 Billion ? That’s $136,000 for each taxpayer ! And that does not include the coming $185 Million the state owes to cover bonds.
I’m moving away from So. Cal in the near future - If you move to Texas or Idaho I will come take out the trash and turn out the lights at night
@zach When I move back to the Bay Area I’ll swing buy and meet the team. California is super expensive, super beautiful, and its the perfect place for a company like Spark to be. A whole lot of the same energy there that they will vibe and grow with I’m sure.
Getting excited with IoT :). I have been an embedded engineer for more than 10 years. Will you all take in non American that need work permit? Else quite happy to work from where I am if you don’t mind remote staff :).
Okay - I’m no match for that cute face, but I am excited for my Spark Core to arrive.
Trying to decide… building a skirt with neopixels & an accelerometer to make them sparkle when you move - if I use the core to change the colour on the fly is this more lame than cool, or cool than lame? Maybe it depends on whose party I’m going to. haha
Obviously you have rad friends that would love to change the color of your skirt from your website www.rachaeliscool.com/skirt No? Build it anyway, then acquire such friends
Make sure you post a video when you finish! If you need help just shout. Good luck!
@gelica - Awesome. Going to get started tomorrow. Maybe I can pick your brain if I run into trouble. I do have some rad friends here in Halifax - we think light-up clothing will make people smile, and maybe make hardware projects seem a little less intimidating too.
