atticoos··on Ask HN: Who is hiring? (February 2023)
Rally Space | 1st Backend Engineer/Architect | Remote(4hr overlap with Boston) | Full Time

Rally is a brand-new company, building storytelling tools for teams. Rally helps distributed teams stop relying on in-person, office-first communication strategies - and get better at async.

We're building a diverse team of craftspeople that compound off each other. Rally is a new product, which means we get to pick our lego bricks (https://www.notboring.co/p/idea-legos) and build the right way.

We're funded, fired up, and hiring Rally's first Backend Engineer to help bring the product to market. You'll join a founding team of the CEO and two full stack engineers who have done this before, and play a core role shaping & creating a communication engine for a storytelling experience.

Tell the customers they just rotate their screens. It's not a bug.

I just want to give a +1 to the high contrast colors. I have a few colors on mine (green & red arrows for stock quote directions) and they come out great.

But we're not building tools for the campaign. We're building tools for the grassroots movement the campaign has sparked. We're building tools for people to coordinate on the ground, organize, find rides, create fliers, learn information, become excited, etc.

Tools, servers, and bandwidth are all things we cover ourselves. And thankfully we have services like Heroku & Cloudflare that make this easily possible.

Awesome! While I am a Bernie supporter, and an active member of CodersForSanders, it makes me really happy to see this. I think it's amazing seeing our skillets get applied to the things we really care about.

We disrupted the private sector. It's time to go public.

Absolutely agreed. We open source just about all of our projects under GNUA licensing over at https://github.com/SandersForPresident

We made a Slack bot, Swolebot, announce 3 times a day how many pushes we have to do based on how many open PRs we have to review

I hope the article didn't come across that way. We're all developers passionate about the movement, love hacking on projects, and decided to come together and build cool things.

All developers are welcome if you have an idea and want to work with people on it - come join! https://www.reddit.com/r/CodersForSanders and http://slack.forsanders.com and

Some customers have been 3D printing their own mounts, which is pretty awesome.
