Web Engineer — We're looking for someone who loves building for the web. Everything else (professional experience, where in the stack you fit, the languages you've used) is up for grabs. Details here: http://seatgeek.com/jobs/web_engineer/

iOS Engineer, Frontend Engineer, and lots more here: https://seatgeek.com/jobs

Last year, we began building the first serverless application framework (http://www.serverless.com), enabling developers to build web, mobile and IoT applications exclusively on event-driven infrastructure like AWS Lambda. Since then, we’ve been on the front page of Hacker News several times, collected around 7,000 Github stars and we've been funded by one of the top VC firms in the cloud infrastructure space (we’ll announce who soon).

Now, we’re doing something bigger. We’re looking for seasoned AWS infrastructure and React engineers to build a secretive, ambitious project that will potentially have a large impact on application delivery and open-source in general.

Though our company, and this project in particular, you will use cutting-edge technologies like AWS Lambda and GraphQL to solve longstanding problems with application delivery. Together, we will define new serverless/event-driven architectural paradigms, and help all developers deliver scalable applications, efficiently. This is a fantastic experience if you are forward-looking and ambitious.

Stridatum is a small software development house working on a few projects in Go (Golang if you're searching this page). IoT, embedded systems, big data, you name it! We also have some opportunities in iOS and Android if you're interested in working on those too. (That is, you must have Go experience, we are not looking for iOS-only or Android-only devs). We're a lot like the seed-stage startups we work with because there's a big variety to the projects you get to work on.

I don't care about your experience or resume, I only care if you can code, communicate, and work well with others. If you're reading this, put the string DrPepper into your email. You should definitely have good attention to detail, and be self-motivated.

If you want to work on Go, and live in a low cost of living area, relocation may be possible after a trial period. But remote is great too (we actually don't even have an office right now).

Email jobs at stridatum.com with a Go code sample/github profile for more info.

Neuroscience data – EEG, MRI, microscopy, genetics, and associated metadata – is some of the most complex that is used in science today. Standing alone, each component does little to solve complicated problems in research, development, and clinical care. Epilepsy, Alzheimer’s disease, multiple sclerosis, depression, Parkinson’s Disease and other neurologic conditions affect one in six people worldwide. Without the ability to work collaboratively with this data in an integrated manner, and in the relevant context including links to metadata, teams of researchers and clinicians are prevented from making fundamental discoveries that advance the field toward better medicines, devices and care delivery approaches. Blackfynn’s Data Management Platform solves this problem by enabling data integration and collaborative science. Help us solve this problem, and you will help improve the lives of tens of millions of people worldwide living with neurologic illness.

We’re a small team (4 today), well funded, and we’re looking for a frontend engineer and a UX designer to join us. We’re based in Old City in Philadelphia. Our stack today is Java, JS, and Polymer all on AWS.
