Ethyca | Remote, NYC | Senior Open Source Engineer (Python) | $140k-$180k | https://ethyca.com

Ethyca is a Series A startup building data privacy tools for engineers. We have an existing product that helps companies automate GDPR/CCPA requirements, but I'm now building out multiple teams of engineers to focus 100% on free & open-source tools to solve difficult privacy engineering problems like: database analysis, PII classification, data pseudonymization, etc. We believe that privacy is currently an afterthought in the software development lifecycle and want to change that... to read more, see out recent HN post: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=27929233

If you're an experienced Python dev with some combination of privacy, OSS, security, or data eng experience, and you want to help make data privacy best practices accessible and pervasive, check out our open positions here:

* SENIOR OPEN SOURCE ENGINEER (PYTHON): https://grnh.se/b38430243us

* SENIOR MACHINE LEARNING ENGINEER (PYTHON): https://grnh.se/1274147c3us

Alternatively, send me an email: neville+hn AT ethyca DOT com

nsamuell··on Privacy is an afterthought. Here's how devs can easily make it better.
Maybe for the "big" decisions (like whether or not to store user data in the first place), but I'd argue that in the myriad of small decisions (like whether to copy the entire user object into an analytics table or just a pseudonymized id) I do think the average dev isn't as "respectful" as you think...

YMMV of course

Ethyca | Remote, NYC | Senior OSS Engineer (Python) | $140k-$180k | https://ethyca.com

Ethyca is an Series A startup building data privacy tools for engineers. Our core business is helping companies automate GDPR/CCPA requirements, but while doing that we've also been creating developer tools for things like database analysis, PII classification, data anonymization, etc. We believe these kinds of tools should be freely available to all devs, so I'm building a small team of Python developers to work full-time on open source projects in the data privacy space.

If you're an experienced OSS Python dev who wants to help make data privacy best practices accessible and pervasive, send me an email: neville+hn@ethyca.com

p.s. In the past, I haven't been great at responding to everyone, and I'm really sorry about that. I'll be paying closer attention to emails over the next few weeks to make sure I don't miss you this time around.

Pathgather - http://pathgather.com - ONSITE - New York, NY (NYC)

Pathgather is a fully-funded enterprise learning SaaS startup (Techstars) focused on helping employees advance their careers by learning new skills. Our talent development platform is used by some of the largest companies in the world (HP, Visa, Qualcomm, etc.) to (1) aggregate learning content from both public (e.g. Udacity) and private (e.g. internal learning systems) catalogs, (2) empower employees to share what they're learning and mentor each other, and (3) track employee progress towards career goals. We've got real revenue, real customers, and a real opportunity to make learning better for employees everywhere. We're still small (~23 employees) but we're growing our product & engineering teams quickly and are adding positions across the spectrum.

Right now, we're focused on finding a great Product Manager to join the team. If you've got demonstrated experience (~4 years) managing great enterprise SaaS products, let's get in touch. Check out the job details below:

* PRODUCT MANAGER (4+ years, enterprise SaaS, Scrum, JTBD): https://jobs.lever.co/pathgather/0b5baaca-50b4-414e-95b2-927...

Additionally, if you're an experienced engineer (~4 years), are passionate about learning, and want to join a growing team, let's get in touch. Check out our careers page for details on other positions (https://jobs.lever.co/pathgather), or contact me (neville@pathgather.com, CTO) to get started. If you can, please include "Hacker News" in the subject line so I don't miss it - email is a pretty noisy communication protocol...

nsamuell··on Ask HN: Who is hiring? (August 2017)
Yeah, last month wasn't great for me, busy chasing several things. Looking back, I didn't reply to 3 of the applications that came in via HN (excluding the recruiter spam, of course)

I don't really believe in canned responses for applications, though, which is why you didn't get one from me. In your case, it was either (1) you were remote, or (2/3) new grad from either college or bootcamp. As a small team we're not well setup to provide the mentorship I believe is crucial for new devs, which is why we're looking for a few years experience today.

I know it's hard on your end, though. Sorry you didn't hear back. I do try to reply to everyone, but I haven't been able to keep up, so maybe a canned response really would be better.

Cheers

Pathgather is a fully-funded enterprise learning startup (Techstars '14) focused on helping employees at Fortune 500 companies advance their careers by learning new skills. Our platform is used by some of the largest companies in the world (HP, Visa, Qualcomm, etc.) to aggregate learning content from both public providers (e.g. Udacity, Pluralsight) and private catalogs (internal learning systems), empower their employees to share what they're learning (e.g. articles from HN), and track employee progress towards career goals. We've got real revenue, real customers, and a real opportunity to make learning better for employees everywhere.

We're looking for Backend and Frontend Engineers to join the engineering team. Our two teams interface via our GraphQL API; this means our frontend engineers can query exactly the data they need and our backend engineers can focus on more interesting problems than fetching data for views.

As a Backend Engineer, you'll leverage our PostgreSQL schema heavily to enforce our business logic via DB constraints, trigger functions, and all kinds of fun things... When you aren't designing database models, you'll be writing integrations with a variety of external services, working on our machine learning models, and - of course - LEARNING.

As a Frontend Engineer, you'll be tasked with implementing the "delight" our customers have grown to expect from our product. This means focusing on the right interactions and keeping everything clean, consistent, and reusable. React, of course, helps a ton for this.

If any of this sounds interesting, contact me (neville@pathgather.com, CTO) or apply to our careers link below!

Thanks! That video is pretty old, too, I actually think the interface is nicer now in many ways :)

We're unique in the sense that our primary value is aggregation and curation of other services. So you might use some KM system (like, say, Confluence) to write up a "how to set up your environment" guide, but you then use Pathgather to find, share, and track who has learned that piece of content. This works particularly well when your learning content spans many different websites, which is very common at large enterprises.

Look forward to hearing from you!

nsamuell··on Why you should not use AngularJs
While I'd be the first to agree that Angular does a bunch of things I think are a bit crazy, articles like this don't really move the needle for me. The author doesn't like the design of Angular and feels it isn't efficient enough. OK, that's OK! However, there's not some massive conspiracy here - go ahead, use React/Ember. In my own experience, Angular is performant enough for most web applications, and the convenience the framework offers makes up for a lot of the crazy, weird things it does to achieve that API.

But to each his own.
