Sqreen - https://www.sqreen.io | Full-time Onsite developers | Engineering team in Paris

Sqreen's mission is to provide robust security layer to help developers protect their web applications against weaknesses. We develop solutions that combine instrumentation, defensive algorithms and machine learning. Our dashboard displays detailed information about the security of every sqreened application.

We are recruiting 10 new engineers to join our team to help porting Sqreen to all environments and ship our incoming products: - C gurus with a strong PHP background (or the opposite !) - Node experts, having written Node extensions in C/C++ : LibUV, v8 API... - Java experts, who like low level Java internals, such as bytecode manipulation.

We are obviously looking for great developers, and you don't need to be a security nerd (even if at Sqreen, you will learn a lot about it).

Our code runs inside our customers' applications, which is a challenge for reliability and efficiency.

We have a cool and modern stack based on Docker, AWS, Mongo, Flask & React, and we do full continuous integration. We are passionate, we love code, we attend and contribute to meet-ups and open source!

The Ruby on Rails version of our product is now in private beta and will get public soon. It is securing dozens of high traffic applications.

You can find our job offers here: https://www.sqreen.io/jobs/ Email: jobs@sqreen.io

Earlier quoted context omitted.

I think you're thinking of a different company. We don't do urine tests and to my knowledge never have. A search of the internal site, including all corporate and HR policies: http://i.imgur.com/CKsksxq.png Pivotal Labs started in San Francisco in 1989, mate. C'mon now.

Pivotal NYC most definitely did, not too long ago.

I've worked at Pivotal NYC for nearly 30 months.

Nobody has ever asked me.

Nobody has ever spoken about taking a test.

Nobody has announced any such policy, or even hinted at it.

Nobody has ever told me they were asked, including the candidates I have interviewed.

Your remarks are worse than hearsay.

Experiment | NYC | full stack engineers

We're a platform for crowdfunding and sharing scientific research. Every day one new research project gets funded, and we have a community of ~50,000 scientists and explorers.

We're a small team that's fiercely mission-driven and user focused. We frequently meets with our users to go on dinosaur digs, redwood tree-climbing survey expeditions, ocean dives, and bird banding trips with our users, because our users are scientists.

Internally, our team has this term we call "jelly", it's the special feeling you get when you're interacting with and helping our scientists, and everything kind of comes together into this cosmic bliss. I imagine it's what astronauts feel when they look at Earth from the space station.

Our stack is a mix of rails, react, backbone, postgres, redis, D3, and more. Our engineering approach is focused on automation and scale - building platform tools for the community to support themselves.

The code you write will directly affect a community of scientists making real discoveries, like this article from The Economist yesterday (http://www.economist.com/news/science-and-technology/2169585...). We're making history by helping scientists to sequence the genomes of every single individual of this endangered bird species (there's only ~140 of them).

We're looking for people who care a lot about science!
