Now that we have a few months of development under our belt and have learned a few things, FM is ramping up. This is a chance to join a well-backed startup before we move to the next level and get all fat and happy (well, we are in fact pretty happy...). As a reminder, here's our backers, and yes, we do provide options and good benefits (and we pay market rates). Our offices are right across the Golden Gate bridge in Sausalito with grand views of the Bay, we're exactly one city block from the best sushi in town, and your commute - if you live in the city, for example - would be about 15-25 minutes of gorgeous driving, or a short ferry ride (we're very close to the Ferry terminal).

So what positions do we have? Read on:

Sales: Account Executive
We're looking for a high-energy account executive with at least 3 years of online advertising sales experience. The perfect candidate has existing relationships with media buyers and advertising clients. Required skills include fluency with media-buying terminology (eg, CPM v. CPA, reach v. frequency, GIF v. Flash), familiarity with online ad-serving platforms (eg, Doubleclick's Mediavisor), proficiency with Excel and Powerpoint. Must be a clear and concise communicator. The position will report to FM's VP of sales & market development. Interested? Contact us!

Controller/Financial Analyst/Overall Business/Numbers Geek
FM is looking to hire a finance and accounting pro who loves the web and the media world, and can help us manage a growing business. We need someone who is meticulous and independent, who wants to help us build a startup in the online advertising space. Responsibilities include running our accounting function, as well as forecasting and analysis of business developments. We looked into outsourcing this, but we realized that if the right person comes in to do this job we’d be getting a lot more than just a service, we’d be getting another voice helping our business be smarter and better. If this sounds like you, please contact us.

Author Technical Services
We're looking for someone to help support our authors on a more technical level - in short, to help our authors make their sites as good as they can be. Someone to respond to technical emergencies, to help pinpoint problems with site layout, and correcting issues our authors might have with the performance or layout of their sites. The Author Technical Services Jockey (OK, you can call yourself whatever you want) will also be a point person for managing our ad servers and administration tools.

* Expert HTML production and CSS layout, light JavaScript and other small programming tasks and deployment
* Image production and preparation using Photoshop
* Experience setting up and maintaining Wordpress, MovableType, and TypePad blogging tools
* Good communications and followup skills – ability to work well with our authors.

Experience with Macintosh, MySQL, phpAdsNew, phpMyAdmin, and Unix shells a plus. Can't wait to start? Contact us!
