Hummer Winblad-backed Krillion Plays Footsie With Techs

Krillion's HR message says don't look at their web site, they are still in stealth mode. Nevertheless, you can see they are trying to marry consumer buyers with local sellers. The beta is not terribly compelling and the future is not so bright they need to wear shades. For some this kind of well funded start-up might see cozy but we prefer Web start-ups that show some success before hiring up.
They need:
+ Web Database Architect
+ Data Integration Engineer
+ Core Application Engineer
