Well, we’re not precisely breaking new ground, per se.  But we are kicking off the demolition and construction of the new 1st floor of our building.  For fun, we let a number of humans pitch in and help out with the beginning of demolition.  Check out the video below for a sample of some good, old-fashioned sledge hammer swings.

LinkedIn is growing, and we’re expanding into a new space committed to our rock star product & engineering teams.

We’re going to be building out the space to create a environment really optimized for our great engineers, product managers, web developers, designers and quality engineers to all sit and work together.  Very high

energy, with a lot of thought given to providing the best possible place to design & build the features for the world’s largest professional network. 

When the space is done in a couple of months, we’ll have room for another 120-150 humans, and we’ll post pictures of the launch.  But as a teaser, here is a quick 3D rendering of the type of stations we’re planning for the space:

By the way, whether you are looking for a great position in architecture, engineering or product, LinkedIn is hiring.  One of these new spots could be for you!
