we're hiring

The big boss posted over at Mac Mojo that we're hiring. The boss lists some great reasons to work for MacBU (leave it to a Redmonder to talk up the caffination options), and you can go over there to read it.

We're launching our biggest hiring initiative since the initial formation of MacBU, eleven years ago. This means that we're hiring across all roles (including that user experience designer position that I mentioned a few weeks ago), in our Redmond, WA, and Mountain View, CA, locations. We've got some job reqs available at Microsoft Careers to give you an idea about what we're looking for.

What those sterile job reqs never capture, though, is that we really want passion. We want people who care deeply about making great apps. We want people who are Mac users and Mac advocates. We want people who know that a single person can make a big impact. We want people who won't shy away from big challenges. We want people who have a vision, and who have the drive to see that vision turned into reality.

If you're serious about making Mac software that's used by millions of people the world over, send your resumé (and link to a portfolio, if you're looking for a UX role) to macjobs@microsoft.com. If you have questions or if you aren't sure if MacBU is quite right for you, feel free to post questions here in the comments, or you can use that great little email link to drop me a line.

  No, that's just for MacBU.  :)  You guys probably don't have nearly as many openings as we have coming up in the next few months ...
