Ask HN: Who is hiring? (February 2025)

FUTO is an organization dedicated to developing, both through in-house engineering and investment, technologies that frustrate centralization and industry consolidation. Through a combination of in-house engineering projects, targeted investments, generous grants, and multi-media public education efforts, we will free technology from the control of the few and recreate the spirit of freedom, innovation, and self-reliance that underpinned the American tech industry only a few decades ago. Our principles are here: https://www.futo.org/about/what-is-futo/

There is consensus today that social media is broken. At FUTO we aim to fix this. In this role you will act as product owner of Polycentric (https://gitlab.futo.org/polycentric/polycentric), our open-source decentralized social network that also forms the basis of FUTO ID. Additionally you will also provide support for our next generation social media project.

AI is a platform shift. One spreadsheet will emerge as the new hub for 1bn+ people and their data. That spreadsheet is Sourcetable.

We're playing with agents, autonomy, COT, all popular closed & open source models, and growing fast.

Experienced team, top-tier investors, massive upside. Sound interesting? we're hiring.

Imbue builds AI systems that reason and code, enabling AI agents to accomplish larger goals and safely work in the real world. We train our own foundation models optimized for reasoning and prototype agents on top of these models. By using these agents extensively, we gain insights into improving both the capabilities of the underlying models and the interaction design for agents.

We aim to rekindle the dream of the personal computer, where computers become truly intelligent tools that empower us, giving us freedom, dignity, and agency to pursue the things we love.

Figma makes the tools that modern companies use to design apps. And because of that highly sensitive data, security is extremely important to get right. (If the next iPhone were designed using Figma and a breach leaked it... yeah, you get the point.)

Anyway, I am on the security team over here at Figma and reminding the excellent HN folks that we're hiring. I'm primarily working on AI and Snowflake Security currently, but I've hopped around over the past year. You likely will too!

We are a bit of a weird hybrid hiring-wise though. We need engineers with a security background than can _also_ write production-grade software.

(If you are a regular SWE then please check out Figma Careers page for a better role to apply for. There are many open roles, though keep in mind that Figma tends to only hire at the "Senior" bar and up. Not very many junior folks here.)

This is the link for my team if you're interested! Feel free to ping me at my email on my profile if you have questions. Cheers!

We believe the only way to seriously accelerate the roll out of heat pumps, let alone hit 600,000 a year by 2028, is to put the needs of heating engineers and installation businesses front and centre.
