Our client may be a company you have never heard of, but we are in the process of changing the world - and we are using some cool technology to do it. 
So we need people that don't want to solve plain old ordinary problems. Think peer-to-peer, but in the browser.  Think of Git, but for ideas instead of source code.  Imagine running in real time with thousands of users, or completely offline, or both at the same time.
Got your interest? Good.
Now imagine that that the purpose of that software was to fundamentally change the way that groups of human beings interact.  Our customers are the most influential companies in the world!  
Now can you get an idea where we are going with this?
Our software is all about helping the companies who run the world to make it a better place.
Finally, imagine working for a company like that -- a company where executives ask input from everyone, interns to the president, and their answers are anonymous and the best ideas always win. 
A company where decisions are made based on data, and egos are removed from the equation. If that is a company you'd like to work for, then this is your chance.
What we are looking for in all of our employees:
•	Open-minded: willing to consider novel approaches to solving difficult problems
•	Energetic: very high energy, willing to work hard and enjoy success and willing take risks
•	Self-starter: driven to get results, needing little or no management oversight
•	Passionate: always strive for excellence and have pride in your work
