Ask HN: Who is hiring? (November 2016)

The Karr Lab at the Institute for Genomics & Multiscale Biology at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai is seeking talented, ambitious engineers to develop technology for building, simulating, and applying cutting-edge whole-cell computational models of individual cells.

We are developing whole-cell computational models which comprehensively predict how behavior emerges from the molecular level by representing all of the biochemical activity inside cells. Our goal is to use whole-cell models to transform bioengineering and medicine into rigorous, quantitative disciplines. Our work is highly interdisciplinary, involving systems biology, genomics, bioinformatics, data integration, parallel simulation, optimization, software engineering, and data visualization, and highly team-oriented.

We are looking for software engineers to develop several technologies, including a domain-specific language for describing whole-cell models, a parallel multi-algorithmic simulator, scalable tools for visualizing and analyzing high-dimensional simulation results, and tools for handling personal `omics data.

We're based within the MIT Media Lab, working on revolutionizing academic publishing. PubPub is a free and open tool for collaborative editing, instant publishing, continuous review, and grassroots journals. You can read more about the mission of PubPub at: https://www.pubpub.org/pub/hello.

We are looking for a product designer to join us for a few design sprints. For most of these problems we already have the feature built and overall design philosophy and ideas done, we are looking for help in designing the interactions and making them pixel perfect, as well as turning these design ideas into primitives that can be used consistently in our design. A general outline of our design guide can be found here: http://pubpub.github.io/pubpub-design-guide/

The ideal candidate thinks of themselves as a UI and UX designer comfortable working anywhere from wireframes to high fidelity mockups (CSS is a bonus). No coding experience is needed but the ability to work closely with developers and iterate on designs is key. Remote candidates are welcome!

An example of a target of a design sprint would be the 'header' data in a publication (a GIF of which is found here: http://g.recordit.co/7TAT5qixzm.gif).

Please send us a short introduction and demonstration of your work (behance profile, dribbble profile, PDFs, etc) to pubpub-careers@media.mit.edu!

Virtyx is focused on building a new approach to devops and cloud management. We're using AI to setup monitoring automatically and have it change and adapt as your product grows and evolves. We're iterating over the AI and making it smarter and smarter. Every customer we add teaches it about additional infrastructures and setups.

We're looking for driven engineers who want to focus on building an incredible product. You agonize over details and love shipping code.

Our Stack:

  * Angular.js 1.5, moving to 2.x  
  * ES6 (Migrating from CoffeeScript)  
  * Spring && Java  
  * Postgres

We're shaping the future of designer collaboration. zeroheight keeps design teams in sync by enabling them to easily create style guides and re-use common design elements. We’re building sophisticated infrastructure to finally give designers the tools they need to work together at scale.

You’ll join our team of two technical (and friendly) co-founders based in East London. We’re VC-backed and are looking for a full-stack engineer (first employee) to help us scale the product and grow our engineering team. Our stack includes Ruby on Rails, Backbone/JavaScript, Cocoa, Python and Linux – though ideal candidates should be eager to learn any new language/framework if needed! We offer generous salaries and equity compensation.
