Ask HN: Who is hiring? (December 2021)

Wingback | Senior Rust Backend Engineer / Integration Engineer | Full-Time, unlimited PTO | REMOTE | Salary: $100k / $80k + bonuses | https://wingback.com

We are Wingback, a new startup building the infrastructure needed to make it easier for anyone in the future to build and grow a SaaS product. If you worked for a SaaS startup before, the chances are high that you got asked to build a custom pricing plan with a custom feature set for one specific client at some point. If so, you probably hated the task and no one in your team wanted to work on it either. Wingback makes it possible that developers won’t ever have to do that again.

Since I first posted here in summer, we have formed a great core team on 5 continents and we are looking for a few more experienced engineers to join us. My co-founder and I have already built and exited a startup from zero to a team of dozens of engineers and $1m+ in revenues in the in the past, so things have been running (mostly) orderly since the beginning. We are on track to ship the first basic version of the product and onboard our early customers soon!

We are currently looking for:

* Senior Rust Backend Engineer

* Integration Engineer (mixed stack with focus on javascript/typescript)

Our previous company was one of the earliest supporters of rust[0] and we are committed to continue to support the amazing rust community through sponsorships and open source contributions.

We do not care about your academic degrees or where you are from, but about the stuff you did and what you could create in the future given the right opportunities. If you are interested in working with us, write me an email at work_with_yann_hn₍ₐₜ₎wingback.com and tell us about the projects you worked on that you are the most proud of and which technological feats of the past inspire you.

Genesis Therapeutics | Burlingame, CA | Onsite (Flexible WFH) | Full-time | https://www.genesistherapeutics.ai

We’re a hybrid AI + biotech start-up, developing novel deep learning and molecular simulation techniques to predict molecular properties and using them to accelerate the development of new medicines.

We raised $52M Series A from Andreessen Horowitz + well-respected biotech investors, and have deployed our technology on several internal drug programs as well as a multi-target collaboration with Genentech, driving discovery progress at a speed rarely seen in the industry. Now we are scaling the team and technology to support many more programs in parallel as well as increasingly difficult protein targets.

We currently have a team (https://www.genesistherapeutics.ai/#team) of about 30 people, split 50/50 between our ML / software team and our biochem team of veteran drug hunters in our own wetlab space. Our ML + software engineers are top-notch -- many graduates from MIT, UC Berkeley, Stanford. Previously worked at OpenAI, Google, Facebook, MemSQL, Jane Street, etc.

We're looking for pure software engineers (no bio or chem experience expected) to help scale our cloud infrastructure and build internal tools for our ML and chemistry teams. We have an autoscaling cluster of hundreds of GPUs and thousands of CPUs processing billions of molecules / day, with a spiky, heterogeneous workload of deep learning training + evaluation as well as molecular simulation. See the full job description here: https://jobs.lever.co/genesistherapeutics/e76a97f1-1157-4bb7...

We're also hiring ML research scientists and computational chemists. Here are all of our open roles: https://jobs.lever.co/genesistherapeutics/

Interview process: 1-2 one-hour technical phone screens, 1 day on-site (optionally virtual) with 3 one-hour technical questions. All these include extra time to chat, answer your questions about Genesis, and meet us. Can go from first email to offer in a week or two

Tech Stack: python, C++, pytorch, postgres, flask, docker, kubernetes

Plasmic | Founding Developer Advocate | Remote | Full Time

View full posting on our site (HN limits comment length): https://www.plasmic.app/careers/founding-developer-advocate

Plasmic is a visual builder that plugs into React and other codebases. We aim to lower the barriers for anyone to create software, but our initial wedge is the headless content management market.

We are an early-stage startup with a tiny but wonderful distributed team of 10 from Google, Microsoft, Facebook, Dropbox, MIT, Berkeley, including 3 ex-founders with exits and 4 ICPC world finalists. We are well-funded by NEA and investors in Figma/Framer.

We are looking for a Founding Developer Advocate to help us grow a community of developers, especially in the React, headless commerce, and Jamstack spheres.

This is a critically important leadership role for our company, as the majority of the team is now shifting focus onto growth.

Responsibilities include:

∙ Authoring and launching high-quality content and educational resources that are truly interesting or valuable to our communities (not about Plasmic).

∙ Participating in existing React/web development communities and open-source projects, and building relationships there.

∙ Creating example projects, documentation, and screencasts to showcase what you can create with Plasmic and its tools/API.

∙ Owning our general online presence and driving engagement on venues like Twitter and GitHub.

∙ Potentially creating and launching our own open-source projects.

∙ Speaking at conferences.

∙ Work closely with the founding team to define the overarching growth strategy. You'll be telling us what the above list should look like!

We are prepared to invest heavily in this role. Compensation includes competitive cash salary and generous equity.

If this sounds interesting, please get in touch at hiring+hn@plasmic.app. We would love to meet you!
