SevenFifty Technologies | Engineering Director; Senior Full-stack Developer (Rails); Product Designer; Solutions Engineer | New York, NY | Onsite

SevenFifty is modernizing the wholesale beverage alcohol industry, which is massive but technologically antiquated. Over 50,000 restaurants, bars, hotels, and retail stores across the country connect with their sales reps and wholesalers through our platform, replacing a status quo going back to Prohibition. We work with everyone from the largest importers to mom and pop winemakers to build bespoke tools for communication,. content distribution, and order management, providing transparency across all tiers.

You'll be joining a small engineering team tackling a wide array of challenges - from complex data processing to modern, interactive web frontends; from liberating data from decades old mainframes, to consuming and writing APIs used by everyone from small retail shops to large conglomerates. We want people who are excited about learning new technologies and passionate about transforming a broken industry. We're also in a sweet spot for ambitious and talented engineers; we have a lot of traction and are well-financed, but still have a very small team responsible for a wide range of work enabling you to take ownership of large slices of our technology stack.

Technologies: Ruby, Rails, JavaScript, Backbone, React, React-Native

We're on a mission to simplify live audio.

Currently we have thousands of broadcasters who rely on Mixlr to distribute their live content to millions of listeners each month, from radio stations and podcasters to professional sports teams.

We’re looking for experienced Ruby on Rails and C++ engineers and a senior Product Manager to help expedite development of a bunch of exciting new features we have lined up for 2019, while contributing a positive impact to the team and culture at Mixlr.

Tech stack: Ruby (rails/sinatra/eventmachine), C++/Qt/QML. PostgreSQL, Redis, Puppet, Terraform, Docker, AWS.

We’re a small, tightknit bunch. Social, hard-working, family-friendly and heavily inclined towards coffee, snacks and absurd sound effects.

Apply here (for Ruby on Rails role): https://mixlr.workable.com/jobs/923302 // Or email (for other roles): jobs@mixlr.com

Learning Equality | Python & Full-Stack web developers | San Diego | ONSITE (preferred) or REMOTE | Full-time

We’re a cross-disciplinary team who believe in the transformative power of access to education. Our software is open-source, our organization is a non-profit, and our primary beneficiaries are in underserved communities such as rural schools, community centers, and refugee camps all over the world [1].

We are looking for Full Stack engineers to support the development of two open-source, Python- and Javascript-based applications:

- Kolibri [2], our web app which is designed for use in low-resource and low-connectivity contexts. Kolibri is available in dozens of languages, and specially designed to provide access to curated and openly licensed educational content and powerful tools for pedagogical support.

- Kolibri Studio, our cloud-based app which gives users full control over the organization of their educational materials. Using this content curation system, anyone can explore pre-organized libraries of open educational resources, and bundle, tag, differentiate, re-order, and distribute their contents offline as custom channels to Kolibri.

If you care about education and you know your Python and JS, we want to talk to you! Apply at https://grnh.se/dd40b1ab1

Shortform | REMOTE | Full-stack Engineer | Full-time / Part-time | $120-200k

https://www.shortform.io/

Do you like reading non-fiction books? Do you find yourself forgetting what you read days later, and feeling like you never absorbed the book's lessons?

Shortform is a book summary product that aims to make ideas actionable. It differs from existing book summary products in 3 major ways:

1) an emphasis on applying the lessons from books, through interactive exercises 2) high-quality summaries, with in-depth chapter by chapter summaries 3) building a community of learners who support each other to apply the lessons from books

Company status: We're in early development. The product roadmap is clear and we're building our engineering team. Shortform is seed-funded by the founder, who has built multiple bootstrapped and profitable companies.

Technology: We haven't finalized the stack but are circulating around Angular/Vue.js/React on frontend, Django/Node.js/Rails on backend. You can help contribute to this decision.

About the role: Ideally you're fullstack on the web, and comfortable on both front-end and back-end. Experience building mobile apps is a plus. Position is remote (current team is in Boston and Chicago). Fulltime / parttime roles available. We're able to pay competitive market salaries (i.e. not decreased by equity).

Email hiring@shortform.io to get more details about the company, our product roadmap, and the role.

We're creating a general purpose automation platform to open up the possibilities of serverless architecture, by allowing anyone, through our intuitive visual workflow builder, to connect their entire cloud stack. No dev resources required.

We’re a well-funded startup with a team in San Francisco and 35+ in our London Engineering HQ. Having increased our revenue by 4.5x in 2018 we’re growing fast and looking for top engineers to join our squad teams. We’re small and dynamic, open to new ideas and the work you do now will have a big impact on shaping how we grow, fine-tune our highly performant multi-billion transaction platform for years to come.

There’s an app out there for everything but most cloud software services are distinctively difficult to use together, and doing so is very labour intensive. With our cutting-edge platform, processes that took hours, or even days, can now happen in seconds.

Customers like Reddit, Digital Ocean, GitHub, Lyft, and IBM are already reinventing how they work through Tray. Help us usher in the era of automation.

Hey HN readers, we're looking for engineers to join us!

Our product is a site builder that allows enterprise customers to use our WYSIWYG editor to publish websites that are consistently branded and accessible to only a chosen audience.

Founded in 2012, we have a stable and growing base of customers who love what we've made for them, and we need help in the following areas:

  Operations Engineering
    - help ensure our service is working as expected: we're proud that we've maintained 99.95% uptime, and that we fix bugs quickly.
    - understand and maintain our AWS environment, and ensure the security of our systems and data meets a compliance threshold.
    - helping to manage and improve our data storage systems. (e.g. upgrading elastic search or running database migrations)

  Product Engineering:
    - build and improve features in our product. Some recent examples include:
    - improving the theme editor for sites built using our product.
    - improving the experience of new users by simplifying parts of our UI.
    - a feature that helps our customers stay compliant with the GDPR when using our product.

  Engineering Management
    - work with others to determine clear short and long term priorities for the engineering team. 
    - work with engineers to help them meet company goals and their own goals.
    - provide technical insight to teammates who are working on signing customers or keeping them happy.
    - identify gaps and risks in our engineering processes and find ways to reduce them.

Our stack is AWS/MySQL/Python/React/LESS, with tools like Vagrant, Packer, Webpack, and CircleCI.

We're a small distributed team, so it would be a plus if you were a clear writer with some experience with remote work.

If this sounds exciting to you, please apply at https://goo.gl/forms/8WOjyVeQ91lc4U0K3

Thanks!
