===========================
====== What we do =========
===========================
We’re working in the largest, least sexy, most invisible industry in the world — 90% of everything has been on a ship at one point in time.
The problem -> To try to decrease costs, carries have been increasing the size of container ships. The only problem there is that as container ships get larger, the variability in the global supply chain goes up (e.g. a large ship being late causes a headache to more people than a small one).
How we fix it -> We track every ship on the water and run a bunch of analysis on our data sets so that we can help our customers smooth out the rough edges. (One company we're working with spends 6.5 mil every month on “late fees” because of these rough edges).
===========================
===== How we do it ========
===========================
Mobile -> iOS, android in the near term
Algorithms -> a dizzying mixture of oldschool and newschool techniques ;-)
===========================
====== And the rest =======
===========================
Looking for help on frontend and data science sides! (also looking for experimentalists for fun hedge fund stuff)

The Internet needs a royalty free video codec appropriate for universal deployment with no gatekeepers. Creating a better video codec is a difficult task, and creating one with unencumbered technology is even harder. We've achieved that goal for audio with Opus, but video is still dominated by royalty bearing codecs like H.264.
We're looking for a Senior Research Engineer to join us building Daala, a next-next generation video codec being developed by Mozilla Research in conjunction with the Xiph.Org Foundation. Daala uses lapped transforms, overlapped-block motion compensation, frequency-domain prediction, gain-shape (perceptual) vector quantization, , and non-binary arithmetic coding to achieve superior performance.
If you like low level code, numeric programming, signal processing, algorithms, or machine learning, you'd probably enjoy working on Daala.

At OpenSignal we're using mobile apps to tap into the smart phones we're all carrying around with us to build up global crowdsourced sensor networks. Our first [1] is for wireless signal where we are building a global database on the coverage and performance of wireless networks (both mobile + WiFi) on a scale that has never before been possible.

Smarkets is a modern betting exchange with significantly lower transaction fees than the competition. We're a well-funded company with a small, agile development team, and our platform has handled over £600 million of bets since launching in 2010. Smarkets has been featured in publications such as Wired, The Wall Street Journal and TechCrunch and was recently selected as part of the Startups 100.
We are taking on the big players in the betting industry with the lean startup playbook. We think the commission charged by such players is too high, spelling for opportunity to do better.
We're building a reliable, low-latency, highly concurrent betting exchange based on trading exchange designs. We're also building a fast, modern web interface to allow for a smoother experience. Servicing our users is top priority. Whether you want to work on the trading exchange or the frontend, you'll be solving real and challenging problems - from scaling to optimising python to handling near real-time design constraints.
The Smarkets platform is written predominantly on Python and Erlang, and relies heavily on asynchronous programming techniques. We use REST where we can. Life at Smarkets circles around version control, configuration management and automated testing. We can, and do, deploy to production several times a day.
Our software stack is built around Linux, Vagrant, Flask, Eventlet, Postgres, RabbitMQ, Git and Chef - but we are not resistant to change as needed.
For all our jobs, visit http://info.smarkets.com/about/jobs/
About us: We are a non-profit project to create a fully open-source SoC using the RISC-V instruction set architecture. We intend to reach volume silicon manufacture and to produce low-cost development boards. There is substantially more information at our website http://www.lowrisc.org
We are currently advertising for two positions at the Research Assistant or Senior Research Assistant level. http://www.jobs.cam.ac.uk/job/4665/
The candidate should have a good understanding of computer architecture and also have practical experience in one or more of the following: ASIC implementation and simulation tools, low-power design, hardware description languages (e.g. SystemVerilog), FPGAs and processor design. Knowledge of computer security and system-on-a-chip architectures is also desirable. Specialists in the area of memory interface design are also sought.
About Us
===================================
We are a small & successful bootstrapped software company from Germany and build popular web-based applications for software teams. We have been in business since 2004 and many thousands of teams, both small and large, use our products. We are hiring for different positions, but our main focus right now is on hiring a technical support engineer to help us support our TestRail customers as well as account engineers to help us demo/sell our products.
Those are not typical support and sales roles though, as our products and customers are very technical (they are software dev/testing teams), so both positions are quite challenging.

We're looking for someone passionate about refining and perfecting the way our SaaS web applications are deployed and managed.
Our traffic is very low volume, but high value - this gives us significant amounts of flexibility to perfect our environment which high volume sites are unable to compete with. We are not high frequency, nor significantly low latency thus have less constraints and more approaches available to us. We aim to push the boundaries of infrastructure architecture, deployment and of continuous integration and delivery.
Technologies include: Linux, JVMs, Ruby, Puppet, MCollective, Logstash, ElasticSearch, Graphite, KVM, IPVS, RabbitMQ, MySQL.

I'm building the core team at StoryWorth and hiring for three roles:
* Marketing and Partnerships lead. I’m looking for someone who can think creatively about our customer acquisition strategy then be highly analytical about executing on it.
* iOS Engineer. You’ll be responsible for building our mobile app from scratch, working closely with me on the design and with our web engineer on the backend. Prior experience building an iOS app is required.

StoryWorth makes it easy for people to privately record their family stories. Each week, we email our customers a question about their life, for example “What do you remember about your grandmother?” or “Tell me about the day you got engaged”. All they have to do is reply with a story, either by email or by phone. We save their stories and share them privately with their family.
We have a launched product with paying customers across the country who love our service. This is an opportunity to be part of the core team that is going to help every family in the world record their story for generations to come.
You're a good fit for these roles if you crave a ton of responsibility on a small team. If you're the kind of person who learns by doing, you'll be learning faster than ever before. All roles require 3-5 years of experience.
If you're interested, I'd be happy to tell you more. Email your resume to nick@storyworth.com, I can't wait to hear from you!

=== What's Heap? ===
Heap is taking a new approach to web and iOS analytics: just capture everything. Whereas other analytics tools require you to define events upfront, Heap lets you run instant, retroactive analytics without writing code.
=== The Role ===
Your creativity and intelligence are much more important to us than your experience with our stack. We're eager to meet all types of engineers, regardless of where you live or what tools you use day-to-day.
We’d like to get to know you if:
* You enjoy teaching yourself whatever is necessary to build something.
* You plow through obstacles.
* You’ve written 10,000 lines of code that look really embarrassing in retrospect.
* You’ve written 10,000 lines of good code since then.
* You communicate ideas with clarity and precision.
* You make decisions with a preference for empiricism and measurement.
* You like fruit, sunshine, and bad jokes.
Our stack is Node + Redis + Postgres + Backbone + D3. Some things we're working on:
* Data capture. We’re integrating with more clients and frameworks, including Android, AngularJS, and Backbone.js, all with virtually no performance overhead or integration cost.
* Real-time infrastructure. We support an expressive set of queries that allow our users to slice and dice the data in arbitrary ways. The results need to come back with sub-second latencies and reflect up-to-the-minute data.
* Data visualization. Simple pre-generated graphs just don't cut it. There's an enormous number of ways to organize the data. Existing tools only scratch the surface.
Heap was in Y Combinator’s W13 batch. Soon after, we raised a $2M seed round from Ron Conway, Ram Shriram, Sam Altman, Garry Tan, Alexis Ohanian, Harj Taggar, and others.
We work in SF but are absolutely open to remote engineers. Email us at jobs@heapanalytics.com with reasons as to why you'd make a great fit.
TL;DR if you know complex data processing (hadoop/spark/cassandra/hbase/etc...) or you have a bunch of solid java and sql experience and want to learn this newer stuff please apply to our Senior Software Engineer, Core Data Pipeline position

1 in 100 people in the USA now own one of our products. Join our team and help us reach double digits.
We are a small (-10 strong) engineering team that is changing the way people bring ideas to the market. In our first 2.5 years, we’ve shipped millions of products, provided a living for hundreds of our amazing users, and even had the privilege of watching a few of those users become millionaires through our platform.
Who we are: We’re an ecommerce platform that’s growing like crazy, and we’re just getting started. We obsess over our customers, and dream of a world where everyone can unleash their inner entrepreneur.
Things we care about: - Average product feedback score 9/10, - 9/10 customers say they would recommend our products Who we are looking for: We’re hiring incredibly talented, passionate people. Our biggest need (in a senior capacity) is full-stack, front-end, and dev ops engineers (we’re a Ruby shop), but we’re hiring across the board for the right people.

We're a startup trying to reinvent retail so men can dress well without being subject to the horrors of the high street or having to trawl through millions of items online. We do this using a combination of powerful algorithms and human stylists.
You'd be joining a small, highly technical team with a ton of startup experience (the founders have started and sold 2 companies before). You'll be one of the first technical hires and get to build and own huge parts of the product and work on the core algorithms.
One of our ancillary goals is to build one of the best engineering cultures anywhere, and we'd love you to help us do that. We launched in October and user and revenue numbers are scaling extremely quickly. We're backed by a collection of the top investors from London and Silicon Valley as well as Y Combinator.
We're especially interested in people who are interested in founding their own startup one day. We view working at Thread as a founder bootcamp where you'll learn about all parts of starting and growing a startup.
Want to learn more? Check out https://www.thread.com/jobs and you can see some of our code at http://dev.thread.com/
Thanks!
The Right Fit: We don't care so much about your specific technology background. We're much more interested to know that you learn quickly, are disciplined in your work, and have already demonstrated interest and aptitude by having become proficient in a variety of languages and tools. We look for people who are passionate about development, who program in their free time, who are continually uncovering new things, and who enjoy sharing them.
A Variety of Technologies: At Atomic, it's not uncommon for someone to move from developing a new web site in Ruby to creating an internal application in .NET to building a mobile application in Objective-C or Java. We're passionate about quality and owning our clients' mission, so we select the best tools for the job.
A Broader Mindset: Atomic is a consultancy. As such, you'll be empowered and expected to interact directly with clients every day. You'll need to become comfortable and effective at understanding and discussing business goals, budgets, and timelines with clients. Additionally, you'll help market our services in a variety of ways including presenting at conferences, contributing to our shared company blog, networking within our client's organizations and among your peers, and expending your creative energies in ways we will not attempt to predict.

Renovo is building extremely high performance electric vehicles in Campbell, CA.
This company was started by some friends of mine and I have been working with them as a "side project", building the back end data collection platform (modern cars generate a ton of low level data). They are growing fast and are now in need of a skilled full stack software engineer to take this MVP to the next level. The current platform is a mixture of open software (linux, influxdb) and Java. So far on this project I have worked on debugging device drivers to building graphs in D3.js and everything in between. The right person will not only have a huge impact on the choice of languages and direction of the platform but potentially the electric car industry. Local south-bay preferred, but the right person could work remotely.

We believe our technology will fundamentally change how we interact with computers and our environment. We have built the first and only pixel accurate gestural control device, and we are just getting started.
Yourself: Self starter and mostly importantly a finisher - pick something up and deliver without supervision. You will be a manager with a team size of one - you. You will need to pick the next problem on the way to achieve our goals and solve it. You could be working on our custom OS twiddling GPIOs or you could be hacking on the backend or polishing off our iOS app. You will need to hold a lot of complexity in your head and have solid CS fundamentals. For what we do, Google may not have all the answers to your questions, github may not have any such sample code and Stackoverflow may have a vaguely related question with no replies, but you will be responsible for solving the problem.
Team: ex-(Apple, Facebook, Google, Jawbone, Lab126, NASA, Samsung). Approximately 1/3rd of the team are PhDs (or PhDs on “pause”) in various fields (Math, Physics, CS) from MIT, Stanford, CMU etc.

SwiftStack builds a delivery and monitoring platform around OpenStack Swift. Our product manages some of the largest installations out there, and with a recent expansion into the UK we have a large customer who will need some more localized help. SwiftStack is headquartered in San Francisco, however a number of us work from remote locations throughout the US and Asia Pacific. This will be a similar role in the UK.
In particular this position will be directly involved with a specific UK customer and will be on-site a few days a week. You will be the liaison for this customer back to the "mothership". The role will be half technical and half customer facing.
Knowledge of large storage systems and OpenStack Swift a plus, but in particular someone with a good knowledge of Linux systems administration and deployment is likely to be able to pick up on what they need to know rather quickly.
The position will also involve travel to outside of Manchester UK on a semi-regular basis. Travel expenses will be covered.
Looking for someone for full time or on contract for 12 months.
Please hit me up if you're interested in learning more. I would be glad to share more information and get to learn more about you!

Hi there - we're a startup based in Tokyo and we're looking for a developer with Python/Django experience to join us as a full-time remote staff member, with the possibility of coming to live in Tokyo to work near/in the office.
We have a strong team consisting of 6 developers, a designer, and a bunch of great customer support staff. We're getting some exciting growth, traction, and users love our service.
We have a huge whiteboard full of exciting features we can't wait to get started on, and we need your help to turn them into a reality, and to help continue to delight our existing and future users.
We're mainly looking for Python/Django experience to start, but if you've got a wide variety of skills, it always helps to be a generalist in a startup.
To apply, can you please send me some information about some business apps you've worked on in the past. Ideally anything relating to business processes/quotes/invoices/accounting is great, but is not necessary, since we believe that a cultural fit is just as important as technical skill.
We'd offer a trial to start with, and then if we're both happy with how we work together, we'd offer you a full-time position.
Please send me an email directly at jay@makeleaps.com - I'm one of the founders. Looking forward to chatting with you!
(We also organise the Hacker News community meetups in Tokyo, so if you're planning on traveling to Japan and want to get a feel for the startup community here, see if there's a meetup going on at hntokyo.doorkeeper.jp)

Zoomer is building a new take on food delivery - a platform to handle an extraordinarily high volume of concurrent deliveries from restaurants that already deliver (i.e. pizza, wings, sandwiches, etc.). We’re bringing much needed change to local high-volume delivery restaurants that are still doing delivery the way they’ve always done it. It's a very interesting technology and logistics problem, quickly routing orders to optimal drivers in near-real-time. Our CEO has a substantial amount of experience in the space from his first startup.
In addition to Y Combinator, we are backed by some of the premier early stage venture capital funds, including First Round Capital and SV Angel, and awesome angel investors like Eric Ries & Gabriel Weinberg, the founder of DuckDuckGo. This is your opportunity to get in on the ground-floor. You would be engineer number 3 or 4. You’ll have a ton of impact – lots of freedom to help us evolve our platform, stack, and apps. We have strong dev practices, put an emphasis on testing, and deploy rapidly.
Our stack: We have an AI backend service that handles order routing, multiple mobile applications – for our drivers and restaurants, and several Ruby on Rails applications for customer-facing/internal services. We’re using Angular.js and CoffeeScript on the frontend.
The roles we’re hiring for:

Fanout makes it easy to build realtime applications and APIs.
We operate a distributed cloud service for delivering data in realtime via a variety of transport mechanisms: REST, HTTP streaming, WebSockets, Webhooks, XMPP. Useful for creating applications like chat, sports updates, stock tickers, games, and collaborative applications.
You're a backend engineer who is passionate about realtime technologies, network protocols, and open standards. You hate silos and walled gardens. You have opinions about when to use event-driven vs threaded programming patterns. You lie awake at night thinking about how to optimize out network round trips. You might even know assembly language, or did in a past life.
Also, our code is almost entirely open source! You should think that's pretty incredible.
Important pieces of our stack: C++ & Python/Django, ZeroMQ, Mongrel2, Redis.
Your job:
- Help us build out and scale our distributed cloud service.
- Squeeze the most value out of our servers.
- Make the service bulletproof.
- Gloat about how you get paid to code publicly on GitHub.

Elevator Pitch:
Voxel8 is a startup company that is bringing novel materials to 3D printing. We will embed function into the typical shapes of 3D printing. Our materials, based on research by Harvard SEAS Professor Jennifer Lewis, allow us to print embedded conductors, wires, and batteries into the normal matrix materials of 3D printing. We are looking for both senior and junior software developers to help us with a variety of tasks needed to get our hardware product to market.
We are currently working on a new slicer written in Julia. We use the Marlin firmware running on an Arduino to control our printer. We will need to develop mobile applications to communicate with and control the hardware. We also need to develop new CAD software to allow our users to design objects using our unique materials capabilities. This means we are looking for people interested in:
* 3D printing/3D Scanning
* Computation geometry
* Embedded systems
* Mobile development
* CAD Software (possiby Three.js/WebGL based)
* Closed loop control systems
* Python, Julia, Javascript, C, GL
Bonus points for people interested in software, hardware, and materials science.
If more than one of the above sounds interesting, please reach out to me! My email is jack@voxel8.co
BetterCompany is a seed stage startup based in SF's financial district. The company is well-funded by some of the best enterprise angels and VCs in the business (https://angel.co/bettercompany).
Our app facilitates anonymous sharing within companies. Getting feedback in the workplace is hard. Suggestion boxes suck, 360 reviews suck, questionnaires from HR suck. We can do better. Although we monetize with paying enterprise customers, our focus is on creating a product loved and trusted by individuals.
We're looking for solid developers to work on all aspects of the app. Experience with node.js, Python, Objective-C, Java, client-side Javascript or Linux would be directly relevant, but we're also interested in hackers with experience with "mind-expanding" technologies, like Lisp, Smalltalk, Erlang, Haskell etc.
We're also looking for a security engineer—someone who can audit the codebase, find and fix vulnerabilities and evaluate proposed features for their security impact.
If you're interested, contact me at colin@bettercompany.co
We use machine learning techniques to make sense of a vast reservoir of social data. As one of the few companies with direct access to the Twitter Firehose as well as the full Facebook and Google+ APIs, we face unique UI problems that you'll help solve with your keen sense of design and attention to detail. You'll be architecting new features and workflows that our customers will use to pull valuable insight out of hundreds of billions of social media posts.
There's no precedent for a lot of what we do. Familiarity with modern JavaScript frameworks is a plus, but not a requisite-- We value your ability to think laterally, collaborate, communicate, and execute above everything. We like people who have a background in freelancing. We also like people who come to programming via nontraditional means.
Top pay, top benefits, located in Boston's Seaport district. We're big enough not to be a monoculture, but small enough not to be a corporate cult.

Operations Engineer - lead the design and implementation of our highly scalable and secure backend infrastructure.
iOS/Android Engineers - add functionality to our existing mobile apps, and build entirely new apps.

Videology Group - http://www.videologygroup.com/
Internet advertising startup looking primarily for server-side Java developers (if your Java is rusty but you're good, drop us a note anyway). I was working for a start-up called LucidMedia Networks (hence the "lmn" in the e-mail address below), which got acquired by Videology. Our stack is Java on Spring on *nix with MySQL and some NoSQL stores on AWS. The Baltimore office also has a team on a large .NET stack as well, but Java teams are spread across both offices. We have some big projects in the works involving big data and volume as we scale globally and across mediums (video, mobile, etc.). Currently, our Reston platform alone handles 4 billion requests a day.
Contact me directly at sahil_lmn@yahoo.com.
I actually got hired through a HN "Who is Hiring" thread, and I hired 2 people through these threads. These things do work!
We're building a sophisticated advertising platform to help brands and retailers sell efficiently through loads of shopping intent data.
1) We need a Rails dev to own our campaign management interface. While we have a growing set of systems doing automated optimization and altering, you'll help humans effectively manage hundreds of campaigns for well-known brands and retailers. We serve 50+ million ads every day and process 3.5 billion transactions, and you'll be right in the thick of it. You'll work directly with Postgres, Redis, HBase and Hadoop. You'll also likely play a key role in developing a new API for several key partners.
2) We need someone with fierce tenacity to run QA and technical ad operations. When an account manager sees that we recorded no clicks for a certain campaign in Firefox browsers, you'll get to hunt down the resolution. You'd bring a meticulous eye for detail to bear with browser and Javascript chops. Done well, you'll be a daily hero. (As it turns out, the folks writing "system code" perform best when they can stay in the zone, head down as much as possible.) Count on becoming well acquainted with Hive.
3) Finally, we're looking for a strong DevOps team member. You know networking and Linux very well. You'll help improve our Hadoop clusters. You'll tune monitoring and alerting thresholds. Most importantly, you'll eagerly seek to expand your usefulness as you work with the rest of the dev team. We're not driven by dogma, and you'll find yourself in good company if your sole priority is fixing the problem at hand.
I'm one of the lead devs, and you can reach me at dlarsen@connexity.com. I'm happy to speak informally about our situation, and can hook you up with the HR folk at the appropriate time.
Looking for: API Hackers, Go / Golang Enthusiasts, Python, Ruby, Cassandra / Riak

If that sounds like a good time to you, please check out the attached job description and answer 3 short questions online at http://www.interviewzen.com/apply/5x2pbm or you can email me: mitchell.smith (at) contextmatters (.com)
DEVELOPER
We've built a platform that the world's largest pharmaceutical companies use to make strategic drug development decisions. Members of our team enjoy meaningful equity and a progressive, respectful environment. We like having interests outside of work! Product Development has recently transitioned from contractors to a small team in house and we're seeking a third member. We tend to be pretty self-sufficient, but collaborate on things like code review or UX. The ability to wear many hats is a plus – but we might make fun of you if you mention being a “ninja.”
Responsibilities
• Write code that someone else is able to understand
• Design features that work & look good
• Have ideas: UX, technologies to use, be opinionated on the product
• Balance the ability to ship quickly with code quality and test coverage
Requirements
• Experience developing applications with Ruby on Rails
• Demonstrable knowledge of front-end technologies: JavaScript, HTML, CSS & jQuery
• Working knowledge of SQL
• Familiarity with testing (we use RSpec and Jasmine)
• Ubuntu / server admin knowledge a plus!

We're looking for a developer who thrives on solving complex problems and learning new technology. You want to make an impact in an early-stage company. You write killer back-end code, but don’t shy away from the front-end.
We’ve built Charlie to research people at scale, using the latest Ruby on Rails stack with MongoDB, Redis, Sidekiq, and hosted in an elastic cloud farm. We write code with agility and have a tight process where anyone on the team can deploy to production at any time, without approval (it's near-continuous deployment). We thoroughly test our code, though we’re not strict TDD. We pair program on more complex problems. We're a small dev that loves to code, and constantly pushes, and learns from each other.
Before any meeting, Charlie automatically researches people before you see them. Researching people is a complex problem: we sift through, analyze, and manipulate data into powerful insights (i.e. what are they passionate about, what do you have in common?). CNBC called us “One of the world’s most promising new companies” and SXSW selected us as an Accelerator Finalist.
This is your opportunity to join an early-stage company that’s making moves. Sound interesting? Let us know what makes you the perfect candidate.
Why we’re special:
* Flexible working situation: hours, location
* Relaxed work environment
* Competitive salary + equity
* Funded startup backed by some amazing people
* Everyone deploys to production (fully automated, painless)
* We do fun things (concerts, Bulls & Cubs games, and occasionally ski in Colorado)
* Backend developer
* Ruby on Rails preferred, but you can learn.
* DB experience (MongoDB preferred)
* Not afraid of the front-end (HTML5, jQuery, Coffeescript, bootstrap, Sass, Slim)
* Test your code (Rspec, capybara, cucumber, etc)
* Codes on the side (you love to code, right?)
* Creative problem solver
* Git / Github
* Smart & gets things done.ALTX is connecting the right investor to the right fund. Founded in 2012 as iMatchative, we've built a state of the art, two sided, cloud-based network that helps investors and funds alike find stickier, more satisfying investments with innovative algorithms, behavioral and traditional statistics and analysis.
We're looking for an experienced and talented Dev Ops engineer to join our growing engineering team. As our first hire in this area you'll architect and own all configuration management, deployments and help us provision servers for our platform.
We've partnered with an outside Ops provider since our product went live, and you'll continue to partner with them as you also grow your own operations team.
Here are some challenges you'll help us solve: * Migrate our entire infrastructure to Amazon EC2, manage and deploy our new Vagrant development environments. * Collaborate daily with engineering, QA and Product Managers to plan, deliver and manage our services for efficient deployment and maximum uptime. * Own backups, restores, upgrades and all monitoring for our product.
Our Ideal Candidate Has: * 2+ years of professional Dev Ops experience using managed cloud services like AWS. * Some professional experience with continuous integration servers and systems Bamboo and Jenkins, and automation tools Chef and Puppet. * Experience scripting in Python or Ruby and a deep understanding of Git. * Experience serving in a rotating on-call as part of an engineering team.
What We Can Offer You: * Competitive salaries, comprehensive health/vision/dental benefits, 401K plan, equity, and much more.

We also host private IRC servers for teams and have a self-hosted version for enterprise. Plus, upload code snippets and files (soon!), search your logs (soon!), and images, videos, tweets embedded inline

FRONT END ENGINEERING
IRCCloud is a long running rich web application with real time performance needs. If you're up for the challenge of making a website feel like a desktop app and have deep experience with the following then email your CV to jobs@irccloud.com
* Backbone/Underscore/React

DESIGN
IRC has a reputation as a chat tool for hackers, and a long history to go with it, but it's not always been associated with brilliant design. We've set out to fix that by giving IRC a beautiful and intuitive home on the web and mobile devices.
Our focus is on functional elegance, clarity, and making complex things obvious. And it's time to step it up a notch. We're looking for someone to help us make IRC more appealing to those who've never used it to collaborate before, while still making sure the old hands feel at home.
We need to respect the IRC community, and the limitations of the medium, while making bold decisions that question the conventions of the last 25 years. We're not building something completely new, trendy, and unproven. IRC is still thriving for a reason, and you'll be responsible for better aligning it with the way people communicate online today.
Ideally, you'll have several years of experience designing for the web and mobile, with a strong graphic design background. A working knowledge of HTML/CSS for in-browser prototyping would be a significant bonus.

* We're looking for an experienced Android and/or full stack engineer
WHAT WE DO. We’re a tech startup creating corporate and consumer products to measure and enhance wellbeing and productivity. There are two strands to what we do. First, we quantify cognitive and psychological states, such as attention or happiness. Second, we deliver interventions, such as mindfulness, to boost cognitive and psychological skills. Web and mobile apps are key to both these strands.
WHO WE ARE. Our backgrounds span finance, psychology, technology, and design. CTO George leads on the measurement side, having mapped the nation’s wellbeing with the Mappiness app (http://mappiness.org.uk). CEO Nick leads on interventions, as the former Head of Research for successful mindfulness app Headspace (http://www.getsomeheadspace.com).
WHAT WE USE. We love CoffeeScript, both in the browser and for our internal app logic. Our back-end is largely Postgres and Ruby. We could imagine using Node, Python, Go and/or R at some point; maybe other things too. Our iOS apps are Objective-C, of course, with liberal use of SpriteKit and Accelerate (we’ve tried RubyMotion — impressive, but probably not for us — and we’re playing with Swift). Our Android apps don’t exist yet, and that might be where you come in.
WHO YOU MIGHT BE. We’re looking for someone smart, opinionated, and enthusiastic (in the face of interesting work). Someone with solid experience in web, Android (especially) and/or iOS app development, who likes learning, and who agrees that UX is the most important — and usually the hardest — thing to get right. Bonus points for any of: user testing, sysadmin or database expertise; an interesting technical blog or Github/BitBucket profile; and an interest in mindfulness or subjective wellbeing.
WHERE WE’RE AT. We've just completed our first investment round. Currently our CTO does all development, so you’d be our first developer hire. That means we can be flexible about the work you take on, playing to your strengths and your preferences. That also means you can expect to help guide our development and share in our success.

ListRunner (www.listrunnerapp.com) brings project management to doctors in hospitals. It's hard to believe but doctors are still using paper and pager to manage their team and critical patient information. They're not even allowed to use email..
We're getting amazing traction - and excitement from doctors - and we are looking to expand the team with a few key people:
1) Backend developer: We use Mongo and Node. Lots of very cool challenge in building a robust and flexible API. Experience with real-time synchronization, AWS, security, offline apps and Angular.js is definitely a plus.
2) Product/UX designer: Building an app for doctors is a big UX challenge. They're extremely busy people and are used to have access to lots of information all the time.
3) UI Designer: Doctors are tired of those ugly 1980 computer systems still in use in hospitals. They want to work with the same kind of polished and beautiful apps that they've started using at home. We're looking to push the current healthcare design status quo to a new level.
4) ios and Android developers: We're looking for great ios/android developers with an eye for design who can take a leading role in implementing beautiful and snappy native apps.
5) Machine Learning / Data geek: Right now, 75% of critical patient information is trashed at the end of the day. That information is not going back in the EMR and is totally wasted. There are so many opportunities in helping finding better diagnosis, helping doctors be more efficient, helping the departments/hospitals save time and money, etc.
6) Front-end developer: We're looking for a great front-end developer/designer who love writing clean html/css code with an attention to details (We care about those pixels). Experience with Angular.js with an eye for design is definitely a plus.
----
We're a multi-disciplinary team (Two doctors on the team) solving a massive healthcare challenge. Doctors love ListRunner and they can't wait to start using it every day. If you're looking for an opportunity to use your technical and design skill to solve a real, practical and meaningful problem, please reach out to us (contact@listrunnerapp.com or to me directly at phzbox@gmail).

Hi. We're looking for an awesome Senior Ruby Developer to join our growing team. If you've ever wanted to work for a interesting security startup with great people this is your chance. We're a little different than your average startup so we put together this FAQ.
Q: Ok who are you guys? A: ThreatSim is comprised of some really smart security hackers who were tired of working for large companies. There are people here from Mitre, HP, Fortify, RSA, Verizon Business, Cybertrust, and others. We wanted to do the small company thing and it's worked well for us.
Q: What would I be working on? A: You'd be working on our SaaS service, ThreatSim. It lets our customers send simulated phishing campaigns against themselves. When the user clicks on the simulated phishing link they are immediately shown training. It's an unconventional approach to changing user behavior and it works (hint: we have data).
Essentially we get to think like bad guys and help our customers improve their security. It's an interesting space to say the least. If you ever wanted to learn more about security and cutting-edge attacks, this is the place. We simulate evil AND give our customers data that they can use to protect their organization. You will spend a lot of time thinking "if I was a bad guy I'd..." then have to pivot and think "if I was a security engineer I'd...".
Q: Where is this position located? A: This is a remote position that is open to US residents only located within the US. We understand that not every developer wants to move to SF, NYC, or DC so we let you work wherever you are productive.
Q: What technology to you use? A: ThreatSim is built entirely within Amazon Web Services. Linux, load balancers, auto-scaling, sidekiq, redis, ansible, git, Splunk, HIDS, two-factor auth, disk encryption, and a lot of cool security stuff that you probably aren't used to seeing in a startup.
Q: What skills and qualities are you looking for in a candidate? A: Here's a bullet list:
Ruby on Rails 3.0+ Relational and non-relational databases: MySQL, Redis Background job processors (e.g. Sidekiq) Javascript frameworks (e.g. jQuery, pure JS) Client-side and server side MVC Comfortable with git for version control Continuous integration MS Office (hah right, could you imagine?)

We are a small team passionate about making people's lives better through software. We're hiring for full time positions as software developers and software designers at our office in Grand Rapids.
A little bit about us:
- We write custom software of all shapes and sizes for clients all over the US.
- We aren't limited to any really specific set of technologies, which is a great
opportunity to learn. In the past year, I've worked with Objective-C (and Swift),
Backbone.js (inside PhoneGap), Angular.js, QT Node.js, and of course Ruby.
- We practice a sustainable pace. We recognize that we each have lives,
activities, and families outside of work. Late nights and > 40 hour weeks are
rare by design.
- We're agile, but not dogmatic about it. Our process evolves to suit our needs.
- We offer competitive salaries, health/vision/dental insurance, quarterly profit
sharing, retirement + match, weekly catered lunches, and a top-floor office
with snacks, guitars, and your choice of standing or sitting desks.
- We run a makerspace in our building (http://grmakers.com), which gives us
access to lots of cool stuff like a laser cutter and 3D printers.
- 2.5 hours from Chicago and Detroit, less than an hour to the beach.
- Lots of great beer. Founders Brewery (a mile from our office) has 3 beers in
the Beer Advocate top 15. HopCat is a “World Class” bar on BA.
Just look here: http://beeradvocate.com/beerfly/city/43
- Low cost of living. I bought a nice house with a mortgage payment
30% lower than the rent of my 1 bedroom apartment in Mountain View.
- A growing technology and startup community.
- You love making software, and you have a few years of experience doing it.
- You learn new stuff quickly. You’ve used a lot of technologies, but you’re not
afraid to use more. You have some experience with web or mobile technologies.
- You believe software is written for humans, not computers.
- You want to come into work every day and enjoy the people you work with.

We have early customer revenue, industry partnerships, and grant funding from the National Science Foundation and U.S. Department of Energy.
Voltaiq is looking for creative, experienced, and extremely talented software developers to join our team in the San Francisco Bay Area or New York City. We’re looking to fill out our initial team with someone who has full-stack backend experience both shipping features and managing multiple-server deployments.
We are looking to fill a position immediately, and will give preference to those with a broad knowledge base and a strong desire to learn.
Desired Tech Skills:
* Strong coding skills in one or more of the following: Python, Java, C/C++, Go.

ENGINEERING CULTURE
Our engineering culture:
* We do very thorough, line-by-line code reviews using GitHub pull requests. This keeps our code quality high and helps us learn.
* We try to have two people work together on every project (collaborating, not pairing). It's more fun and it results in better code.
* We practice rapid iteration. If it's better than live, we ship. We also build things so they can go live (whitelisted) long before launch day.
* We write tests for things that are mission-critical, prone to failure, or cause paranoia. Think billing and datastore code, not Django views.
* We care about learning. Right now we're reading through Advanced Programming in the Unix Environment.
* We currently have 9 vim users, 2 IntelliJ, and 1 emacs holdout.
We have two types of engineering positions available - systems and product. Both of these positions require you to be able to work in San Francisco, CA.

We are working on a number of new products right now with serious infrastructure challenges and we need more people with great depth to help us solve them. This position requires at least 5 years of experience.
Responsibilities of this role include:
* Working on our custom datastore (written from the ground up in C)

We're a small team with backgrounds in startups, consulting, and venture capital. Our team shares a love for either sports or programming, but we all share a common love for building a winning culture.
In this role, you will be working with mostly client-side javascript.

You’re aware of the challenges of DOM implementations between browsers and can write clean code to deal with them.
We invest in our people, and team build through whiskey, basketball games, and hack weeks. We keep the fridge stocked, stay as transparent as possible, and will buy whatever resources you need to keep learning (books, screencasts, etc) We're still a small team, so this is a great opportunity to have a big impact on the product and our culture. We're looking for people with a passion for their work with high standards. Ideal candidates have a demonstrated experience hacking stuff; code samples are best (GitHub, a personal website/blog, previous projects are all great).
You can work remotely or at our offices in Chattanooga, TN
Skills we're looking for
* Proven experience working with Javascript on client-side (ember.js/or angular/react)
* Experience working with web sockets & realtime technology
* Comfort on the front end html5, compass, and css/sass

As part of our recruitment process, you'll have to complete a coding exercise and later come for face to face interviews.
=====================================
================ Us =================
=====================================
Our goal is to bring privacy and security to the unsophisticated masses, by targeting users who value those qualities in principle but won't compromise "for-your-grandmother" ease of use. Eventually, we'll be replacing conventional telephony/SMS.

If you have strong (mobile) UI/UX skills, you'll be a great fit.
Ideally, you'd be willing to start before the end of September (the earlier the better).
We don't care much whether you've already used any of these, but you need to be willing to work with the following technologies:

* XMPP
* WebRTC
=====================================
=========== Compensation ============
=====================================
If necessary, we may be willing to provide hardware.
Also, any interest in being paid in Bitcoin? (I haven't looked into the recent IRS guidelines on this, so it may be a horrible idea. If you live outside the US, though, this could possibly turn out to be really convenient. I'll talk to our lawyer about it.)

We're a seed funded startup with several former Googlers, and we're tackling the messy world of business. Every day, people shake hands over million-dollar deals that can change the future of a company. From fundraising and acquisitions to partnerships, promotions and product placement, businesses get together and make new things happen. But there's no platform for them; they typically overload sales-focused CRMs, or are stuck in the world of spreadsheets and email. We're changing that.
It's a fascinating data problem as we're mapping out professional and company-to-company networks, trying to understand who does business with whom and why, feeling our way around the underlying graph that nobody's explicitly mapped out before. From old school tie to the boardroom, why do people do business with each other? What are the trust and influence networks? What's the equivalent of PageRank for investors? What does it mean when a VP moves from one company to another? How do I get my startup funded?
We're trying to answer all these questions. We have an invite-only product already launched, we're building a team-facing solution, and we're expanding our data team to work on the platform that powers it all. Here's my take on the space: https://medium.com/@jennielees/the-joy-of-data-a1d3757d3567
Looking for fast learners who can get their hands dirty, quickly; who know when to duct tape and when to have 100% test coverage (think like a hacker, ship like a pro); who don't mind being wrong occasionally; and who are intrigued by the overall space we're in. We've had a good run from HN posts so far, hoping to continue it.
You'd be potentially a single-digit employee and have a significant chance to influence our culture and growth, as well as immense impact on the product itself. We have a generous equity setup, though we prefer contract-to-hire so we can figure out if we'd work well together.
For our generalist role we'd prefer it if you have Rails and JavaScript experience; for our data roles, Python. Graph-specific data experience is a bonus.
I lead engineering at Close, and I'm also happy to chat for coffee if you're interested in startups, this problem space, or if you're interested in the product itself.
Email jennie+HN@close.co.

About us
We’re the Department of Better Technology, a Knight Foundation-funded startup that’s digging into the guts of government and trying to fix it with technology.
Job Details
We're hiring a web developer to help us revolutionize the world of government IT. We started this company after being embedded inside government and seeing first-hand the horrors of the technology that these folks have to use everyday. We worked on a project called RFP-EZ that made it super simple to view and bid on government contracts. It wasn't anything amazing -- just a simple Bootstrap site, but just by making this process easier to understand for web firms who don't specialize in government contracting, we were able to save the federal government an average of 30%.
We've been in business for a just under a year, and have already created dozens of success stories - governments who are using our software to save staff time, save money, and provide better experiences for citizens. We're looking to grow our team and help us scale this success to governments across the country.
Experience
We're looking to bring on a developer who fits the following:
You are experienced in Ruby and ideally, Rails You have strong knowledge of SQL/Postgres You have a passion for good user experience and are excited about frontend development, too You are comfortable working with a 100% distributed team And last, but perhaps most important, you are as passionate as we are about our mission to revolutionize government IT
Our Culture
For many people in the technology industry, DOBT is a different kind of place to work, and a different set of people work here. Usually, they’re people who value time more than they value money. While from time to time, circumstances may call for it, you aren’t going to see a lot of 80 hour weeks, and depending on your time zone you might see some people who clock out at around 6.
You’re probably not going to be in a work environment that has a foosball table, catered lunches, and its own mass transportation either. That’s because we’re a fully remote firm. While some people may opt to work together in the same space, we want people to work from wherever they feel like it. So if you’ve always wanted to live in Japan, now’s your chance.
Diversity
DOBT is an equal opportunity employer. We will not discriminate and will take measures to ensure against discrimination in employment, recruitment, advertisements for employment, compensation, termination, upgrading, promotions, and other conditions of employment against any employee or job applicant on the bases of race, creed, color, national origin, or sex. We are committed in all areas to providing a work environment that is free from harassment.
How to apply
Fill out the form on Screendoor: https://screendoor.dobt.co/dobt/developer-hiring/ (yay for dogfooding!) Alternatively, send a note to sdp-response-hclhimz1@in.dobt.co. USA/Canada only, sorry. Recruiters and agencies will be marked as spam.

Your primary responsibilities will be: • Designing, implementing, and maintaining front-end features • Expanding the JavaScript-based learning applications to cover new kinds of learning • Working with the product team to craft the optimal user experience
And you'll be working in: • A sunlit office in the heart of Shibuya with incredible views of Tokyo and Mt. Fuji on a clear day • An extremely flexible and friendly working environment
We are a small, dedicated team of passionate individuals who believe in the value of the service we are creating. English proficiency opens many doors in Asia both personally and professionally, and we know our product is that rare product that can actually make a difference in people’s lives.
If you think you're a good fit for our team, please send an email to recruit@cerego.com with a brief introduction, resume, and a few code samples if there are any you'd like to share. Tell us what you're most proud of, what you've accomplished, and why you're interested in Cerego.

We're a small, non-profit tech startup bringing a free, world-class education to anyone, anywhere.
Here's a testimonial we received last week:
==================================
I have been using your site for almost three years now. I am a 9th grade homeschooler who has always done okay in math, but I had some major gaps and lacked mastery in a lot of concepts, especially with fractions. Ever since I have started Khan, I have been able to go back and not only fill in those gaps, but master them. And now, fractions are one of the concepts I do best!
This site is amazing and continues to get better every month. Thank you to Sal Khan, the Khan team, all its sponsors, and all its interns for making this site better and more available to all students from around the world. Please keep doing what you are doing!
==================================
Every month we get hundreds of letters like this from people in all walks of life who are thankful for our free, high-quality educational content. Most of you reading this are familiar with Sal's videos, but we also have hundreds of videos by other teachers, partnerships with organizations like MoMA and the California Academy of Sciences, and a huge library of interactive exercises. Over 20 million math problems are done every week on our site.
A few things we're currently working on building right now:
– Tons of improvements to our core learning dashboard [1] and predictive knowledge models [2] so we can better personalize a learner's experience
– Infrastructure improvements to make the site more reliable and faster for our millions of visitors every month [3]
– Better tools for our content creators to allow them to make thousands of engaging, interactive exercise problems without knowing how to code [4]
– A major revision to our iOS app to let students practice skills on the go (or in a classroom with iPads!)
- Expanding access for the billions of learners around the globe through various internationalization efforts
You'll be part of a small team working alongside both "celebrity" devs (like jQuery creator John Resig, and Google's first employee Craig Silverstein) and many more who you haven't heard of but who are also really awesome.
We're especially looking for new product designers (of all types) but we also have many engineering positions open as well as some positions for a teacher and contract question writers.
Apply at https://www.khanacademy.org/careers and mention that you're coming from HN. Feel free to reply here if you have questions about applying or about KA in general. Unfortunately we can't sponsor visas right now unless you're from Canada, Australia, or Mexico.

You should definitely feel free to apply and explain your situation!
I also created a visualization for the Kelly Criterion, which optimizes bet sizes for risk.

Fancy helping to build the Python world's favourite PaaS (probably)? We're looking for a "junior" programmer with plenty of smarts to come and join the team, learn the stuff we do, and inject some new ideas...
Job spec
Here's some stuff you'd be doing:
Working in an Extreme Programming (XP) shop, pair programming and TDD all day, woo[+].
Coding in Python lots and JavaScript a bit, and maybe other stuff too (OK there's like 5 lines of Lua code somewhere. But you could come along and try and convert us all to ClojureScript or something...)
Devops! Or what we take it to mean, which is that you deploy to and administer the servers as well as write code for them. Lots of Linux command-line goodness in SSH sessions, and automated deployment stuff.
Sexy CV-padding technologies! Like Docker, nginx, websockets, Django, copy-on-write filesystems, Ansible, GNU/Linux (Ubuntu), virtualbox, vagrant, continuous integration, AWS, redis, Postgres, and even Windows XP! (although we're phasing that last one out, to our great chagrin). Don't worry, you don't have to know any of these before you show up, you'll get to learn them all on the job...
Learn vim (if you want to) much faster than you would on your own by being forced to pair program with vim cultists all too happy to explain the abstruse keyboard shortcuts they're using...
Get involved in the nonprogramming aspects of the business too (we all do!), like customer support and marketing. Honestly, that can be fun too.
Work near enough to Silicon Roundabout that you can walk to the Hacker News meetups, but not so near that you're forced to overhear bad startup ideas being pitched in every coffee shop
[+] The pair programming thing is an unbelievably good deal for new developers btw, there's just no faster way of learning than sitting down next to someone that knows and being able to ask them questions all day, and they're not allowed to get annoyed.
Person spec
Here's the kind of person we'd like
* Smart -- academically or otherwise. A degree (CS or other), won't hurt,
but it's not required either.
* An enthusiastic programmer (but not necessarily Python and not necessarily
professional)
* A bit wacky (which doesn't mean you have to be an extrovert, just
inclined to left-field ideas)
* Willing to come and work here in sunny Clerkenwell
* Willing to get paid less than you would at Google or a bank, in exchange
for working in an exciting but relaxed tech-startup environment
* Age
* Male/Female/Black/White/Number of functioning limbs/Space alien.
* Gaps in CVs
* Current country of residence (as long as you're willing to move here promptly!
You do need to be able to speak good English, and unfortunately we're
too small to sponsor visas, so you need to already have the right to live
+ work in the UK)
* Dress codes
------- About Kaggle -------
Kaggle is best known as the world’s largest community of data scientists. Our community of around 200,000 data scientists compete to solve complex data problems. We’re changing the way the most important data-driven problems are solved. We have branched out beyond our core business of machine learning competitions, to build end-to-end solutions in specific industries. Our first focus industry is energy, where we are working with Global 10 companies to make better decisions on where and how to drill for oil & gas. Our solutions take detailed geological and engineering data and help predict well performance. These solutions can minimize capital and environmental destruction by helping operators drill fewer uneconomic wells. Kaggle is located in the heart of the SOMA. We are well-funded (Khosla Ventures, Index Ventures and Max Levchin). Our team includes coffee, beer wine and whisky connoisseurs, pastry chefs, ping pong players, kiteboarders and rollerbladers.

Sound interesting? Let's talk. Drop me a note - shayne@brainspace.com
- 1) What’s the best thing about your current job?
- 2) What’s the worst thing about your current job?
- 3) What things could you wish for to make your current work better?
These were the questions I asked my team in an email in June 2014. The intention was to use their answers to better understand and prepare a job posting in order to attract similar minded people to our company.
Their response however surprised me:
- "The best thing in my current job is free of implementation ways and time limits..."
- "Flexible work hours (and even days!). Ability to move to another place any time. Good team."
- "The best thing is freedom in ways to resolve the tasks. When I'm choosing tools, libraries or approaches I'm free to pick whatever will be the best for task. And not limited by some company policies as it was on previous jobs..."
- "The working flow standards... Company trusted politic... Team voice... The happy team... Strict and smart team lead..."
- "No hierarchy. Almost :) I feel we work not only for one person but for the company, moving this business forward - that's really inspiring."
Please review full answers here http://3QAYJ.com
In my opinion their answers were better than any job posting I could have done. It inspired me to rethink the whole way we normally post a job. When looking for skilled likeminded people to join our team we shouldn’t make a job post; rather we should make a “company pitch”. Most job posts are dictating who you are and what you should do – a common sentence in a job post often goes like this: “you got a master degree in computer science and like to...” or “you will develop solution concepts by using...”. We don’t believe in such requirements. We don’t think of you as a work unit in a production line. Rather we seek talents and personalities whom we would want to invest in a relationship with. We firmly believe modern companies need to rethink the way in which they attract similar minded people. We must open our door and introduce our values; as this is the first step towards creating a bond. After all we are the team that want you to join us.
With that being said welcome to 3QAYJ.com (www.3QAYJ.com) – our company pitch project to attract you!
Our workflow is managed via
JIRA,CONFLUENCE
and all code submitting is handled through Github, pull request. On a daily basis we communicate via hipchat and each Monday we have a weekly meeting via skype to touch base. One of the outcomes from the 3QAYJ is our team summit. Starting from 2015 we will have a real life team summit meeting some place around the world financed by the company.
We are currently looking at expanding our development team with 1-2 backend developers.
Job description
Here is a list of some of the tools and technologize we currently use:
- Nginx
- git
- Capistrano
- compass (scss)
- coffeescript (a little bit)
We'd appreciate if you have experience with the above or you can study how to use it.

We’re a five-person biotech startup with an amazing set of advisors, and we're using high throughput experiments, automated image segmentation and analysis of human cells, and lots of data analysis to find new treatments for rare genetic diseases faster than anyone has previously thought possible. There are more than 5,000 rare genetic diseases, in total affecting millions of Americans, and our serious goal is to find treatments for 100 rare diseases in the next 10 years. We’ll need the best minds out there to help us make that happen.
Our approach is to model rare genetic diseases in human cells, then use these disease models to find drugs that revert the cells to a healthy state, and thus are strong candidates for impacting the disease in patients. In a pretty quick experiment, we image millions of human cells. Image segmentation and analysis quickly makes thousands of measurements, resulting in a very deep quantitation of the state of every single cell. The challenge at hand is running the right experiments in the right way and analyzing results to make the discoveries we seek as quickly as possible.
My two co-founders developed the basis of our approach at the University of Utah, using it to find two very promising candidates for a serious and fairly common genetic disease. We’re moving those candidates forward, and at the same time adapting the approach to address the thousands of other untreated rare genetic diseases as quickly as we can. I joined them to start this company because this is the best chance I’ve found for a software/stats person to make such a huge impact on the lives of millions of people. I also believe that imaging-based biological experiments are going to be a big part of the wave of advancement coming to treating and curing diseases in the next two decades.

Software Engineer (Python):
- You have several years of experience in python software development, preferably using ipython and other scientific python tools. You’re also super-comfortable at the command line and handling the standard a linux server, and great at solving any kind of computational issue via stackoverflow. No sysadmins, DBAs or the like will be around to help for a while.
- You’re motivated by challenging problems, and by the idea of making millions of patients’ lives dramatically better, as fast as we can.
- You’ll work with biologists and data scientists to develop tools to manage and automate our experiments and analyses. To manage the experiments and analyses it will take to treat 100 diseases in 10 years, we’ll need a pretty amazing set of systems in place eventually, but need to get there incrementally so that we can make rapid progress immediately using the resources we have.

Lead Data Scientist (Python):
- You have several years of experience in statistics, machine learning, and software development solving problems and answering questions efficiently using lots of data, preferably using ipython and lots of python’s scientific programming tools.

- You’re ready to take on any problem and figure out the best solution you can with available time, having fun in the process.
- Maybe you already know some biology, but if you don’t, you’re excited to learn what you need to (we’ll help, of course!) in order to really understand our data and approach.
- You’re motivated by challenging problems, and by the idea of making millions of patients’ lives dramatically better, as fast as we can.
- You’ll come to understand our experiments and data at a visceral level and help us guide the direction of our experiments and our company towards our goals.
- You’ll work with our biologists to guide our design/experiment/analyze cycle towards getting the most impactful biological information from the most rapid and cost-effective experimental approaches. This includes researching, suggesting and testing different statistical and machine learning approaches, along with changing our experimental setup to provide more useful information with every round of exeriments.

You may recognize us from the Web Framework Benchmarks that have been discussed on HN periodically: http://www.techempower.com/benchmarks/
Work Hard, Have Fun, Be Nice
Let's be honest: you became a developer because you like to build things. Interesting things, useful things, cool things. It's like building with Legos, only you get paid, and there are always plenty of the right color pieces.
At TechEmpower, we build things. Interesting things. Cool things, mostly in webapp form. We build them as individuals, because we're creative people. We build them as teams, because we like to help each other grow, and because we know that collaboration improves even the best code.
Having the best people doesn't hurt, either. We've got most of them already, and we're looking to find the rest. You can build things with us. What's the catch? We're pretty darn selective.
To work as an individual, you have to be motivated and creative and thoughtful and serious. To work on a team, you have to be respectful and energetic and open and absolutely not a jerk. We need developers who can work on every part of an application, from the data store to the page–sometimes known as full stack developers. And to be a full stack developer, you have to know technology and want to learn more technology, because those acronyms just keep coming.
Our clients expect us to work with them, not for them. We help them define their problems, and we provide solutions, on time and on target. We're service-oriented, and you should be too.
Still reading? Please apply! And check out our Web Framework Benchmarks while you're at it. We pretty much wrote the book on that one.
Just so you know:
Teams range between 2-6 people
Developers are exposed to 3-4 projects per year
All development is done on high-performance workstations with 4K displays. A lot of code fits in 3840x2160 pixels!
We maintain an informal, comfortable environment, just like the old college computer science lab, but with grown-up hours
Everybody's nice
Languages: Java, JavaScript, Python, C#, Ruby, PHP
Tools: Git, Jenkins (Continuous Integration), Sonar (static code analysis), Eclipse, IntelliJ, Ant, Maven
Web: Dropwizard, .NET MVC 5, Play, Django, Rails, Mustache, Handlebars, Backbone, Angular, Knockout, JSP, Servlets, jQuery, etc.
Mobile: iOS, Android, PhoneGap
Hosting: AWS (EC2, RDS, etc.), Rackspace Cloud, Linux deployments
Data Persistence: ORM (Hibernate, etc.), MySQL, Postgres, MS SQL Server, NoSQL (Redis, MongoDB)

===== About us =====
Upcoming is a Dutch 'listicle' website (a listicle is an article consisting of a list of funny/informational/sentimental/whatever stuff). We've been growing continuously since we launched last year, already reaching 10% of the Dutch population with zero € spent on marketing. We’re (an independent) part of Telegraaf Media Groep, one of the biggest publishers of The Netherlands.
===== Abour our tech stack =====
We use python in the backend (Flask, Celery+RabbitMQ), and manage the frontend with Jinja2, jQuery, LESS and Grunt; persistence is done with MySQL and Redis. The deployments are automated, in a Continuous Integration environment.
Our backend is developed in-house, with state-of-the-art publishing related features such as:
- Monitoring of 1000's of rss feeds from news websites, in order to detect trending articles all around the globe.
- Advanced analysis of our own articles' metrics, for automatically promoting them among our publication channels (this is aimed at maximizing virality).
- (Bayesian) Headline and thumbnail A/B testing
- Highly scalable click-through-rate optimizer, presented in a workshop of the ACM Recommender Systems conference in Hong Kong last year.
Since we're part of a big media group, some of these tools are now being used by other teams, reaching tens of millions of users every day.
===== What we're looking for =====
- CS degree and/or relevant web experience
- Ideally, someone who has spent some time across the whole stack, but we will consider people who consider themselves “just” a frontend or backend developer.
- Pragmatism
- Python experience not mandatory - just show us that you’d be willing to learn and that you’re smart :)
===== What we offer =====
- A perfect balance between working on innovation projects and “regular” web development, both with short and iterative development cycles.
- The flexibility and dynamism of working in a startup, with the strong stability of being part of a big company.
- An international environment, with people from all over the world (UK, Italy, Romania, Argentina, Brazil, Iran, and more)
- Thorough relocation assistance, regardless of where you’re coming from
- A competitive salary
- 25 vacation days
- Amsterdam! You’ll be living in one of the most beautiful and cosmopolitan cities in the world.

Quantopian is hiring software and operations engineers to help us disrupt the world of finance. We've built the world's first web-based algorithmic trading platform, and we're growing our team to support our rapidly expanding user base and to build everything on our ambitious product roadmap.
We're well-financed by some of the savviest investors in the business (Spark Capital, Khosla Ventures, GETCO, and various individuals).
We work on interesting problems, such as:
* Running arbitrary user code on our own servers, with all the associated security implications
* Designing and building intuitive and powerful research and development tools and APIs for our users Designing data stores to model real-world financial data and optimizing them for high throughput when running trading simulations
* Communicating with broker APIs to trade real money on our users' behalf
* Metering and autoscaling our cloud infrastructure to respond to varying load
* Designing and building an amazing user experience, both on desktop and mobile
So far, we've built Quantopian with Python and Ruby on Rails (and a little Node.js) on AWS and Heroku. We depend heavily on Redis, and our Docker usage is rapidly growing.

We're still small enough that you will have a material impact on our company's trajectory. Our small size and ambitious goals dictate our approach to talent acquisition and retention: we believe in hiring the best engineers and giving them hard problems to solve and the autonomy to solve them.
Ideally, you:
* have a solid background in computer science fundamentals
* have good communication skills
* thrive on designing, building, and shipping mind-blowing features that delight our users
We provide:
* All the standard stuff (fully paid health and dental for you and your family, 5% 401(k) matching, gym and phone reimbursement, pretax transit, weekly catered lunch).
* Your choice of computer equipment
* A beautiful new office (in October) in downtown Boston
* Fun and intellectually stimulating work environment. We ship early and often. We have lives outside of work. We like each other.

NGP VAN (https://coderwall.com/team/ngp-van) is the world’s leading political technology firm, providing campaign and organizing technology to Democrats, progressives, and non-partisan organizations. We offer an integrated platform that combines the best fundraising, compliance, organizing, and new media products available.
We are a rapidly growing company that built the voter contact and volunteer management tools used by Obama for America.

Our fundraising and compliance software is used by the vast majority of Democratic candidates from the Presidential level on down, and our fast-growing new media platform has recently become the most-used platform by Democratic campaigns as well.
We have a few spots currently open:
We're looking for an engineering team lead in our Boston office, for our mostly-.NET fundraising product. This person will work with a 100% co-located scrum team, but most of the management for the product itself is out of our DC office.

== Systems Engineer at Prismatic, San Francisco ==
Prismatic is a great place to be an engineer – we analyze millions of shared web pages every day, automatically classify them into tens of thousands of topics, and serve up personalized feeds in real-time using our homegrown, lightning fast, machine learning-based relevance engine. We are looking to grow our top-notch team, with both junior and senior-level positions available.
We are looking for engineers with deep interest and knowledge in at least one area core to our business (i.e., distributed systems, ops and tooling, machine learning, designing and building new product features). We’re a small team, so you will have the opportunity to have a lot of impact, and to learn from peers who are extremely talented engineers, computer scientists, and data experts. Our backend is written entirely in Clojure, a JVM-based LISP that is a dream to work in. Almost none of us knew it before we joined, and we don’t expect you to either. We are looking for engineers who will fit well within our engineering culture: You live and die by good abstractions. You know that they can make the difference between easily understandable and maintainable code, and a spaghetti mess. You think about edge cases and performance implications, and anticipate future needs. You read and understand existing code before diving in and adding your own. You re-use existing code whenever possible, cleaning it up as needed to be more generally useful. You know when to do it fast, when to do it right, and how to find the best compromise between the two. You recognize that we are all stewards of the codebase, not owners. You leave code better than you found it, and you fix bugs without grumbling about whose they are. You are a team player who enjoys discussing ideas and implementations with other engineers.
Here’s a small sampling of the things you will be working on as systems engineer on the Prismatic team:
- Making our crawlers and document analysis better and more comprehensive
- Building out new product features in our API
- Solving tough systems problems to help us scale reliably and robustly
- Building and improving Machine Learning systems for ranking, document analysis, and more
- Creating tools to assist development and ops
- Shipping some of the best open-source Clojure libraries out there, and working with the community to make them better
== Engineering Manager at Prismatic, San Francisco ==
Managers will be responsible for supporting a sizable engineering team, and applicants can expect to be working on the following problems:
- Writing and reviewing code in Clojure, Objective C and Android. You should have great technical depth and a passion for great code.
- Helping to manage the development roadmap for large portions of the product, and working with engineers, tech leads, designers and product managers to efficiently prioritize and execute.
- Recruiting top candidates for both generalist and specialized engineering roles
- Evangelizing our technical brand through external communication, press and speaking at events
- Understanding the growth needs of each person you manage, and helping them continually expand scope and impact within the team.
== Relevance Engineering at Prismatic, San Francisco ==
Here’s a small sampling of the things you will be working on as a relevance engineer on the Prismatic team:
- Feature engineering for improving the quality of news feeds through iterative experiments
- Building and optimizing recommendations for topics for users to follow
- Extending and improving the set of topics available to users
- Systems for quickly training, deploying and testing machine learning models in production
- Creating tools to evaluate the performance of existing machine learning systems

Hey there! Allow us to introduce ourselves. We are Expensify and we do "expense reports that don't suck!" (Google "expensify" to read more.) We're getting crushed under an ever-growing pile of super awesome work, and I need one bright soul to help us dig our way out. I can guarantee you fun, an amazing opportunity to learn, and the siren's call of distant riches. But only if you are all of the following:
- An incredibly hard worker, even when it's not so fun. There is a ton of work to do, and a lot of it downright sucks. After all — we do the sucky work so our customers won't need to. I need you to buck up and grind through server logs, user emails, source code, and bug reports, without complaint or supervision, and come back asking for more.
- A cool person to be with. Not a crazy party animal, just someone we can trust, rely upon, hang out with, bounce ideas off of, and generally interact with in a positive way, both personally and professionally. In fact, this is one of the most stringent requirements we have: would you be fun to hang out with day and night on some remote, exotic beach? This isn't a rhetorical question, either: every year we take the company overseas for a month (on your own dime, sorry) and work incredibly hard while having a ton of fun. We've done Thailand, Mexico, India, Turkey, Croatia and the Philippines. We are going to Portugal this month! Want to come?
- Super talented, in a general way. We're going to throw a ton of work at you of every possible sort, and you need that magic skill of being able to figure it out even if you have no idea where to start. On any given day you might bounce between super low-level coding, super high-level technical support, marketing-driven data-mining, updating our user documentation, inventing/designing/building some new feature, etc. This is not a code monkey job — you're going to be a full participant in the process, and you need to bring your own unique blend of skills to the table.
- Specifically talented in a programming way. You can instantly visualize solutions to problems big and small. Your code is always clean, well commented, has good nomenclature and indentation. You can switch on a dime between C++, PHP, Bash, Cron, HTML, CSS, JavaScript, jQuery, Dwoo, SQL — not because you know them all, but because you're the sort of person who can just pick it up and figure it out. If you're this sort of person, you'll know what I mean. If not, then this position isn't for you.
And there are a bunch more, but odds are if you got this far, nothing I can do would stop you from applying. That's a problem because while I know you are awesome, it's actually really hard and time consuming to find you in the midst of the literally hundreds of other applications I get from everyone else. So this is where I'm going to ask my first favor: can you make it really easy and obvious how great you are, so I don't accidentally overlook you?
There are probably many ways to do that. But the easiest way to do that is to check out we.are.expensify.com and send in an application(which you can find at http://we.are.expensify.com/apply). We are excited to hear from you! -----

Back-end engineer
I am looking for that elusive 10x engineer polyglot that can create scalable back-ends. The right person is on-board with microservices and has been implementing them since before they were a fad. Message queues, concurrency and fault tolerance should be second-nature to you. Our current stack is Python, Celery, and Docker.
-
Front-end engineer
Our front-end tools are all built in AngularJS with a half dozen other JavaScript libraries like D3. We have some interesting UI/UX challenges in graphing metrics and representing data that our current front-end team describe as nothing less than "the most exciting and challenging work they've had for awhile." You're supported by an incredible UX team to perform the heavy lifting as far as design and deciding which A/B testing should occur.
-
Mobile Developer
KickBack uses Xamarin (C#) to build a native and compiled mobile application for iOS and Android. We have an amazing contractor building our app who is acting as the lead, architect and senior engineer. You'll be working with the best. We're looking to add a little redundancy and augment the team with additional resources if we can.
-
Security engineer
Last but not least, I am looking for an Information Systems Security expert. KRS works in a live transaction processing environment and identifying fraud, patterns and preventing information breaches and transaction fraud is second nature to the right candidate. I'm looking for that type-a engineer who cannot sleep if he or she believes an attack vector exist. He or she has an extreme sense of responsibility and can execute on delivering best-practice prevention methods. This role is both advisory ("Team, implement this best practice") and execution ("Team, I implemented this best practice..") We're lean and mean so you should have no problem at all hacking on Ruby one day to deploy a new 'hids' through Chef or drafting a Cisco IOS access-list the next.

Introduction (The Pitch)
Utter.io is like AirBnb or Lyft for excess compute: The utter.io project provides fast location and provisioning of compute resources within a cooperative set of systems managed by OpenStack operators. Resource accounting inside the network is settled with Bitcoin and purchases of compute instances can be made by users without an account. Additionally, groups of operators can form adhoc hybrid clouds, allowing fast scaling and sharing of excess compute resources between trusted entities. If you are familiar with cloud terminology, this idea may be one possible solution to some of the challenges in achieving a global cloud federation.
It is my belief that crypto currency technologies can bring a new category to the existing cloud offerings of compute, storage, and network. That new category is trust. While conversations about how crypto currencies affect our financial systems are definitely interesting, paying for compute, storage and network with stored trust is an awe inspiring vision of the future.
More information is available on the public Github repos for the project (keep in mind the utter.io site is not live yet): https://github.com/StackMonkey
The fund raise for the Utter.io Open Source project will be done using decentralized raise methodologies sometime in early 2015 via token issuance similar to Ethereum, Maidsafe or Storj. A more traditional fund raise is currently underway for StackMonkey, and will be used to build the first of many specific knowledge based offerings on top of the technologies being built with Utter.io.
---
Objectives and Team Overview
This is a pre-raise, core team buildout of roughly 4-5 individuals who will join me in an Open Source project that spans two distinct technologies: OpenStack and Bitcoin. Individuals are expected to be experts in at least one of these fields and moderately versed in the other.
I am 47, well versed in both technologies, program in Python/JavaScript, have written all the software to date in the repositories, have started, run and exited other startups, live in the SF Bay Area, excel at fund raising, marketing, leading, and enabling individuals to grow in their careers. I am passionate about this project because I believe infrastructure is meant to be open, transparent and trustworthy. To me, there is no greater cause than providing individuals access to trustworthy commodity grade compute.
---
Desired Skills
Work will need to be conducted around operational crypto contracts, scheduling of Bitcoin micropayments, integration of blockchain nodes in the appliances, decentralized SSL tunnel solutions, OpenStack deployment methodologies, OpenStack SDN and general network architecture, distributed systems architecture, Python application frameworks, including AppEngine and Flask, UX/UI/design experience with operational software, and developer focused evangelism.
If you find this opportunity interesting, consider it worthy of your passion, and you are looking at a 2-3 month timeframe for a change in your career, please drop me a line. I'm kordless at stackmonkey dot com.
Thank you for reading and best of luck in all that you do! These are exciting times.
## About us
Learning Equality is a recently formed nonprofit that builds and supports open-source (https://github.com/learningequality/) educational software designed to increase learning opportunities for communities with limited or no access to the Internet. We do this work because we believe deeply in the transformative power that learning can have on people's lives, and are passionate about social justice and breaking down the barriers that prevent many people from reaching their full potential and living empowered lives.
We started out as a group of students volunteering on the open-source KA Lite project (https://learningequality.org/ka-lite/), an offline version of Khan Academy, which we first announced publicly in December of 2012. An enthusiastic global response led to a flood of requests for support, features, and partnerships, and we soon realized we needed to establish a solid foundation to support the project and the longer-term vision, so we incorporated as a nonprofit in April of 2013. We have been fortunate enough to raise some funding to support our continued work, and now have 3 full-time employees, as well as a number of contractors and interns, alongside a community of volunteers and open-source contributors. We are leasing space in the Qualcomm Institute Innovation Space on the UC San Diego campus, and collaborate closely with researchers and students across the campus.
We're now looking to grow our core team by hiring someone who will help us to drive our mission and projects forward, playing a strong collaborative and leadership role in both the development process and in the organization as a whole. We have a lot we want to accomplish, and want to continue building a positive, dynamic, and diverse team to help ensure our vision flourishes.
## Our plans
KA Lite has now been installed thousands of times in over 120 countries (https://learningequality.org/ka-lite/map/), in contexts as varied as low-income schools in India, orphanages in Cameroon, prisons across the United States, refugee programs in Lebanon, and First Nations community centers in northern Canada. We plan to continue developing KA Lite, adding features and improving the user experience, and supporting deployments around the world.
Next up, we are preparing for the development of a platform, building upon the KA Lite codebase, that will empower users to create, curate, share, and learn from diverse forms of openly licensed content, in both online and offline environments. This will involve building tools for authoring videos and exercises, an app ecosystem for embedding and distributing HTML5 educational bundles, features for discovering and communicating with other devices peer-to-peer over a local network, interfaces and web-based visualizations for exploring student data, and systems for motivating, engaging, and guiding learners.
## About you
* You care deeply about making the world a better place, believe in the power of learning, strive to promote equality, and resonate with our statement of core values (https://learningequality.org/about/values/).
* You are comfortable in a leadership role, e.g. taking responsibility for a core component of a project, and mentoring students, interns, and contractors.
* You love to build things, and like to think carefully about how best to serve user needs.
* You have skills and experience with web development/design, hopefully using some subset of the following stack: Python, Django, HTML5, Javascript, Backbone.js, and CSS/LESS (visual design tools also a plus).
* FLE is still a small startup, and we each wear many hats, and thus experience in any of the following areas would be valued (though in no way required): Education (e.g. teaching), Networking (protocols, APIs, etc), Databases (schemas, efficiency, replication, etc), Hardware sourcing (finding providers, bulk ordering, build-to-order processes), Quality Assurance (automated and/or manual testing).
## About the job
* We're looking to fill a full-time position (possibly starting with a 3-month trial period contract, as negotiated), with a modest salary, 401(k) matching, and health care options.
