Same here! Seeing how useful tableau (a far less powerful tool) has been for our company, it's clear that there is a big market for empowering everyone to dig for data-driven insights.

Palo Alto, CA - Full time, local, relocation
Pinterest is hiring engineers and designers. We're still a small team (~35 people). You can read what it's like to work at Pinterest here:

Millions of people use Pinterest to discover things they love. For many people, Pinterest has replaced Google as their first place to find things to buy, food to cook, and places to visit.
We have hard problems to solve at scale in areas like search, recommendations, and product design. We're still a young company so every person has a big impact and knows everyone else's name.

pg is right to say you shouldn't let clones be a big distraction. This is especially true for Pinterest because we're a small team and we have a lot of work to do. We're trying to build something important that makes life better for lots of people. If you want to help us, you should write to me.
Lots of people on this thread say that clones are inevitable and profitable. That might be true, but at least for me, it would be a sad way to spend my time. I'd hate to tell my kids that I used my best years copying other peoples' products instead of trying to create new ones.

Pinterest is hiring engineers and product designers in Palo Alto, CA. (http://pinterest.com/about/careers/)
We are a very small team with a lot of interesting and creative challenges ahead of us! Pinterest already does billions of pageviews, has terabytes of interesting data to analyze, and is growing at 50% each month.
There are fascinating problems ahead of us, including search and recommendation algorithms, a developer api, internationalization, and a monetization platform will make using Pinterest better, not worse.
We care about creating a great place for people to do their very best work. We look for folks who are creative, humble, talented, and hard-working.

Pinterest (www.pinterest.com/about/careers) is hiring. We are in downtown Palo Alto.
Our engineering team is still really small (7) from places like Google, Apple, Quora, Facebook and Yelp. Pinterest is doing billions of PV's each month and is scaling very quickly.
We’re looking for great engineers who get excited at the prospect of shipping to millions of users on an a daily basis.
