Ask HN: Who is hiring? (June 2023)

We’re scaling an automated security risk detection and data removal service for individuals. You might be a fit if you have experience doing CTF challenges, distributed systems work and/or web scraping. If you want to be on the ground level of building the most advanced automation platform for personal data security, privacy, and safety, keep reading.

As a backend-focused engineer, you’ll own projects involving infrastructure, devops, data flows, and APIs. But as an early startup teammate, you’ll work across all parts of our product, marketing, and strategy. Some examples:

* Using hardware and software to navigate the web anonymously * Using LLM agents to build internal tools for developers and support * Reverse engineer identification systems meant to harvest data and discriminate access

We’re a YC-backed team with previous startup, growth, and engineering experience at IBM, Shopify, Northwestern, Stanford, Tableau, and law enforcement. We’re backed by top VCs (2048, First Star) and privacy-leaders (Mozilla Foundation, DuckDuckGo). Together, we launched our product and 9x’d our membership - without paid advertising.

Tactically, our software runs on AWS and we use Django and React. Strong knowledge of Python, Go, and SQL is a plus. If you learn quickly and love the mission, but don’t have these core skills, please still reach out. We care most about people who are fantastic teammates over industry experts.

If this sounds like fun, say hi: rachel[at]kanary.com https://www.kanary.com/

You can find all the job postings here: https://startree.ai/careers

My name is Peter Corless and I am the Director of Product Marketing at StarTree (https://startree.ai/). We are a Mountain View, California based company and are now opening an engineering operation in Bangalore, India.

We make StarTree Cloud, an Online Analytical Processing (OLAP) database-as-a-service (DBaaS) for real-time, user-facing analytics, powered by Apache Pinot.

Apache Pinot (https://pinot.apache.org/) is a top-level Apache Software Foundation (ASF) project that came out of LinkedIn. A lot of the PMCs for the Apache Pinot project work at StarTree. It is also used at Uber, Stripe, DoorDash, Just Eat Takeaway (GrubHub), and a lot of other organizations.

Apache Pinot is known for its ability to provide high concurrency — hundreds of thousands of QPS — against petabytes of data. It uses the star-tree index to provide really fast responses measured in milliseconds.

We're past 100 employees and looking for people who want to help grow us to the next orders of magnitude.

Let me know if you have questions or interest.

You are posting this for the last 7+ years I believe. Btw, did you start replacing C++ with Rust nowadays? :)
