geekwork1“I wouldn’t call it a change in direction but a greater focus and clarity,” eBay CEO John Donahoe told Forbes on the day of its headline-making split with PayPal. “The nice thing about the spin-off is that it allows eBay to keep its own profits and reinvest it back in the businesses that will [be] best to drive incremental growth and provide a more cohesive capital allocation.”

Part of that growth involves bringing on some new talent. Ebay has posted several openings on GeekWork, GeekWire’s jobs site, including a Senior Technical Product Manger position. The online marketplace is looking for someone to help build a next-generation shipping and logistics platform.

Zillow, Software Development Manager

zillowLast week Zillow hosted its first national conference, an event that CEO Spencer Rascoff called “the most important day in Zillow history.” As we noted at the time, that’s a big claim given the company’s other recent achievements in recent years — notably its IPO and Trulia acquisition. Although the relative value of each of these accomplishments is subjective, one thing is clear: Zillow’s growth is continuing at a rapid pace.

The real estate database continues to post new listings to GeekWork each week, including an opening for a Software Development Manger. The chosen candidate will be responsible for building a new team to develop the Zillow Rentals business. Zillow is searching for someone with at least five years of experience building high-volume, server-side services and at least two years of management experience. The Software Development Manger will receive a comprehensive benefit program and competitive salary.
