Zipcar | https://www.zipcar.com | San Mateo, CA | ONSITE Full-time (VISA) | Firmware/Embedded C/C++ and Rust

Zipcar is the world’s largest shared-mobility company. We are expanding our engineering team at our SFBA office in San Mateo, and we are looking for passionate, innovative people to help develop our next-generation telematics platform, and keep tens of thousands of in-the-field devices humming. Best of all, you can push the state of the art while you do it with Rust!

We are in the early stages of a green-field redesign of our in-car telematics platform, and are making a big play to write the firmware in Rust. We have support from upper management to open-source what we can (a sampling of the repos is here[1]), and are legitimately pushing the cutting edge of what's achievable. It's _incredibly_ exciting, and you can join us in building first-of-their-kind secure IoT devices. Beacuse it's a new and growing language, we're also realistic about letting our people grow into Rust expertise, and value flexibility over resume bullet points.

The rest of our stack is bare metal C on PIC and RTOS C++ on ARM, with Java on the server/data ingestion side, so you'll need to be at-least-conversant all the way up the stack. When we say "full stack", we mean it! :)

What will you be doing it for? Building connected-car technology for multiple product lines, including Zipcar and Avis. By putting our massive fleets behind an API, we are aiming to be the AWS of transportation.

Example of our connected car work for Avis: https://www.reuters.com/article/us-avis-budget-grp-tech-kans...

Overview of our partnership with Waymo: https://www.theverge.com/2018/8/21/17762326/waymo-self-drivi...

News about our partnership with Lyft: https://money.cnn.com/2018/08/06/investing/avis-budget-lyft-...

Mission-driven. Small team. Flexible working conditions. No worries about funding. :)

I have never been happier at a job; this place is great. I build solutions that breathless news articles (still!) talk about happening in the future. I help to move the state of the art in embedded Rust. I'd be one of your peers, and I'm happy to answer questions off-the-record (hn profile address) or on (bmatthews!zipcar,com)

Knotel is a fast growing commercial real estate startup that is inventing new ways to get things done in a traditional industry. Led by veteran founders, Knotel creates custom headquarters for companies without any of the headaches. Whether for 20 or 500 people, for 6 months or 6 years, Knotel provides businesses the flexibility and design they need in office space so they can focus on their work.

Most companies no longer maintain their own server hardware because AWS offers more flexibility and obviates the need to have hardware on-site and IT folks managing and maintaining uptime. At Knotel we think we can provide something similar for office space -- allowing companies to have the ability to scale up and down like cloud servers and freeing them from the responsibility of managing space by having to find people to take over their long leases, do space build outs, hiring their own with facilities management, etc.

As a result, we have a ton of interesting tech challenges all up and down the stack. We are working on a canonical data model for storing all of the information on spaces so we can increase operational efficiency and transparency across the company. We are building internal tools to increase our efficiency as a company. We are rolling out a data pipeline and ensuring all data flows into our data warehouse so everyone across the company can report on their key metrics. We are integrating with hardware in the physical space to track information like usage, temperature, and we are figuring out solutions for smart access control. We're looking to use computer vision to understand office utilization and flow within the office.

In brief, we have a ton of interesting problems to solve.

We're growing our engineering team in NYC significantly, starting with some key roles.

Today we're hiring a whole bunch of roles:

- Lead Full Stack Engineer https://grnh.se/91ad31da1 - Data Engineer https://grnh.se/d5c41fd31 - Senior DevOps Engineer https://grnh.se/e43371b81 - Full Stack Engineers https://grnh.se/a0d117a21

Any questions, feel free to email me victor [at] knotel dot com
