Careers
Working at NetBurner
Our development team is small and versatile. It isn’t uncommon for our engineers to work at all levels from designing hardware to writing example applications and everywhere in between. Most of our current software is the result of one of our developers sitting down and asking themselves “How can I build something that does this?” “What is the most efficient way we can do that?” or “This seems really hard to do. Is there any way I can make that better?” If you constantly find yourself working on projects and asking yourself these questions, here’s one more “Would you consider a job working at NetBurner?”
We believe that every developer should be focused on what drives them. Frequently, that means we sponsor teams to compete in competitions like the Sparkfun Autonomous Vehicles Challenge (AVC) and the X prize challenge. Several of our developers have used our hardware to build home automation software, giant LED displays, worked with robots, and any number of other projects. If you have a passion for making things work, we’re always looking for a few good people. Take a look at who we’re hiring here .
