Meet Our Web Development Team [PHOTOS]
Thursday, May 24th, 2012
Change can be a wonderful thing, especially when that change involves growth. The UrtheCast team has been fortunate enough to welcome plenty of expansion over the past year — especially over the past few months — as our team membership has expanded to nine full-time team members (with a few more hires currently in the works).
Since 2012 began, we’ve amassed some rockstar developers in San Francisco, a resident rocket scientist, and an all-star business development and operations team. To fit all these new teammates in, we’re undergoing some upgrades. Over the next little while, we’ll be taking the blog behind the scenes of UrtheCast to get a better look at how we’re getting off the ground.
To get us started, let’s take a look at our San Francisco team getting acquainted with their brand new digs:
What happens when a startup’s web developers take on the task of decorating an office? Spoiler alert: there aren’t as many basketball hoops and Super Mario Bros arcade games as you would imagine.
The conference room that doubles as a creative hub for brainstorming, and triples as a basketball court. Good for work breaks and entertaining fellow San Fran folk.
UrtheCast HQ is not certain what these calculations equate to. What we do know is that it’s going to look mighty cool when it all comes together.

The office gets an UrtheCast-branded touch. Sparse for now, yes, but equally cool.

Head of Development, Eric Bieller, and Chief Technology Officer, George Tyc, give one of our weekly Ustream chats from the San Fran office (pre-paint job). [We're on Ustream at 4p.m. PST every Tuesday. If you have any questions for our team, drop us a line!]

Eric gives us a tour of the San Fran office and introduces our newest team member, Nate Weiseger — our go-to guy for PHP dev.
Speaking of development, we’re hiring in San Fran; we’re looking for both front and back end developers, so if you like working hard, eating pizza, and playing arcade games, we’d love to hear from you. Check out our online app.
