salar··on Ask HN: Who is hiring? (February 2024)
Fixed, thank you. Yes, we recently rebranded to Monumental.
salar··on Ask HN: Who is hiring? (February 2024)
MONUMENTAL | https://www.monumental.co/ | Amsterdam, The Netherlands | Full Time | On-Site

We're building autonomous on-site construction robots at Monumental, starting with bricklaying.

We have built a product and technology that works, deployed it in real-life construction sites with excited pilot customers, and raised funding from some of the best in the world. We're still a small and nimble team of 15 and are hiring mechanical engineers and multiple software engineering roles (product, controls, and machine vision)

salar··on Ask HN: Who is hiring? (April 2022)
Terraform | Amsterdam, Netherlands | Full-time | On-site | TypeScript, Rust, Embedded and Hardware Engineers

Terraform is automating on-site construction with robotics and software. Our mission is to make construction primarily software-defined and work towards a future where beautiful, bespoke buildings are built within a single day with minimal labor.

We're in the first days of building the company and we are recruiting for the early engineering team. This is a unique opportunity to be one of the first employees at a startup be immersed in a high-growth, high ambition startup environment, and to work with an experienced founding team surrounded by top-tier investors from day 1.

Our core platform is written in Rust: coordinating multiple robots. doing everything from path planning to inverse kinematics and managing their supply chain. Our frontend is written in TypeScript and visualizes and controls our robots through a digital twin environment, all in the browser.

We work on lots of exciting engineering challenges, from loading a WASM CAD kernel in the browser, or cross-compiling our Rust code to multiple targets (to the browser through WASM and to various microcontrollers). And the payoff of all this work is the immensely gratifying feeling of seeing your code actually move real machines with brick and mortar in physical space.

We're looking for:

* Rust (platform/full-stack) engineers

* Typescript (front-end/full-stack) engineers

* Embedded software engineers

* Controls engineers

salar··on Ask PG: Is this what you meant by "web-based Excel/database hybrid"?
I had never seen your "web-based Excel/database hybrid" suggestion before, but I'm curious if you believe it should be grid driven at all?

Our approach is more page (or in terms of Access: form) driven.

This is how an individual entry might look like: http://ycindex.silk.co/page/Dropbox

Here's how it can look in a grid/table view: http://ycindex.silk.co/explore/table/collection/startup/colu...

Or in groups: http://ycindex.silk.co/explore/groupby/collection/startup/gr...

salar··on Ask PG: Is this what you meant by "web-based Excel/database hybrid"?
The product I'm working on, Silk [1], is trying to do basically reinvent Access/FileMaker for the web age.

I'm not sure if it would do what you'd want since we're not trying to replicate many of the power features of Access, but would love to hear your feedback.
