Tictail | Growth Engineer | NYC, New York | Full-time | ONSITE

We here at Tictail are building the world's most used and loved e-commerce platform. Tictail was founded five years ago in Stockholm, Sweden, where the platform was built from the ground up to support independent brands across the world in running their business. Since then Tictail has built a marketplace to support our brands, opened an office in NYC and grown to support hundreds of thousands of brands and millions of products.

Our frontend is built on top of React, Express, and Webpack where we work hard to stay on the bleeding edge. Our backend is largely written as Flask services in Python where we use technology like PostgreSQL, ElasticSearch, Redis, nginx, HAProxy, and Chef. Everything runs on top of AWS. Above all, we value the right tool for the job.

Who we are looking for:

* You are comfortable moving across, up, down, in and out of the stack - but we don't expect you to be a specialist in everything

* You take pride in your work but care most of all about getting your code in front of users

* You care about building something real – something that helps people all over the world grow their own business from their passion

We are also hiring for non-engineering roles in NYC and you can see more positions http://tic.tl/2gwWsap:

Tuesday Strategies | Software Engineer | NYC, NY | Full-time, ONSITE

Tuesday Strategies is a civic tech company that builds software to help Democratic and progressive campaigns turn their supporters into trackable, manageable digital volunteers. Campaigns are excited to use our software because they understand it's increasingly difficult to reach people with traditional voter contact strategies -- like door-knocking and calling landlines. Our tools let them apply the best practices of political contact online, where their constituents are easiest to reach.

The role's responsibilities include building and maintaining a full stack web app, developing a Facebook-integrated mobile app, and creating a data service that integrates with those and other 3rd party data providers. You can read more about the requirements here: https://www.tuesdaystrategies.org/jobs.

Kipsu | Full Stack Software Engineer | Minneapolis, MN | Onsite | Full-Time or Intern

http://kipsu.io/2S8

Kipsu is a six-year old, bootstrapped software company whose messaging tools keep personal connections at the heart of service. We're hiring driven, curious developers with zero to three years of experience to become a vital part of our engineering team of 10 and help us build the next phase of our industry-leading software platform.

We’re seeking independent people with a hunger to learn to join our team. Some reasons you might want to toss your hat in the ring:

• Autonomy - our engineering team cultivates a culture of trust and responsibility that empowers developers to drive meaningful changes and make their own architectural choices

• Impact - small, nimble teams means that your work makes a measurable difference in the success of the business (and yes, even moving the proverbial needle!)

• Evolution - our all-in, continuous improvement attitude lends itself to blameless retros; we value learning from our mistakes as individuals and as a team

• Conviviality - we’re a Best Places to Work awardee chock full of smart, friendly Minnesotans (and a couple Ioweigians) who prioritize relationships and love treating our customers and each other ridiculously well

• Bonus: We embrace modern DevOps practices, with a focus on collaboration from design and coding through deployment and beyond

Our ideal match is a full-stack developer with experience building web applications with JavaScript and front-end frameworks as well as maintaining a solid, scalable backend codebase by applying object-oriented principles using a modern programming language– at Kipsu we use PHP, Node.js, Go, Swift, Python, Java, and others. Amazon Web Services (AWS) or other cloud computing platforms and experience building native mobile applications for iOS or Android are a huge bonus.

If you’re interested in learning more from our VP of Talent, we welcome you to text us at (612) 400-7222, email us at resume@kipsu.com, or to view our full job description at http://kipsu.io/2S8 and apply. Either way, a human will get back to you!

SpaceX | Data Scientist | Los Angeles | On Site http://www.spacex.com/ | Full Time |

At SpaceX (Space Exploration Technologies) we're trying to colonize Mars, and do other cool things along the way like create a global satellite constellation for communication/internet and return human spaceflight capability to America

In this position in particular you'd be analyzing the data we have in our supply chain and looking for opportunities to improve the end to end process of making space stuff.

There's a lot of companies trying to make the world a better place, but SpaceX is one of the few where you can also make Mars a better place!

I'm an engineer at the company, and not a recruiter, so keep that in mind if you have questions for me.
