Not enough information yet? Well, if you were to go to http://www.truliablog.com, you might stumble upon one of our lead developer's Letterman-esque top 10 reasons to consider working here.10. We have a wii and a big ol’ TV to play tennis on in between bouts of coding. 9. We think Web development is a branch of software engineering, not Italian cuisine (think silly hobbyist procedural spaghetti code). Our VP of engineering even has a PhD in computer science (plus he’s Italian, so we grok both computer science and spaghetti). 8. Our kitchen is fully stocked with enough snacks for every developer to cultivate their proverbial engineer silhouette if they so choose. 7. We not only understand scope rules in JavaScript, we can explain them. 6. Our models don’t need permission to view our controllers. 5. The engineering team strikes the fear of God into the product team. Not the other way around. 4. Everyone in the engineering team is incredibly good at what they do, and they’re always happy to teach you new m@d sk|lz that make you look really, really smart at parties. 3. We know what design patterns are, and we use them with great care and discretion. 2. Every developer gets 2 mondo big huge monitors and a fast machine to work on as part of their standard setup. 1. We write QA and release code so fast you’re always working on something new (that, and it’ll make your head spin). and.... 0. Our top-ten lists are zero-indexed, so they go to eleven.
