Senior Software Engineer | Austin, TX | OwnLocal (YC W2010)

TL;DR: Full-time, non-remote only. Contact jason@ownlocal.com. RoR, Go, ElasticSearch but we think you can learn these things on the job if you're competent. We treat employees like humans. $90k and up depending on experience.

We're a Ruby on Rails shop who has recently consolidated a bunch of backend tech into Go and ElasticSearch. We would love a few engineers who would be interested in working in all three and could lend expertise to the latter two.

We're generally interested in gathering information from print ads, so strategies around data entry applications or experience with computer vision is also really exciting for us.

Our request volume has been increasing by 10s to 100s of millions each month and we've had to learn a lot of new things to keep up. It's fun and exciting times but we're shorthanded to handle the load!

OwnLocal is dedicated to having a quality work environment for everyone. On our engineering team we value collaboration over competition, respect work-life balance and solve problems without blaming people. We have a "no assholes" policy. We have great health insurance. We're big enough to be stable but small enough to still be startupy. We pay market rate for Austin; the lowest salary for this position is around $90k/yr.

We believe that someone who is truly a senior software engineer can come from almost any background and pick up a new set of tech in a reasonable amount of time which is why we don't list much about our tech stack in our ads.

If you are interested, feel free to contact me (Jason Novek) personally: jason@ownlocal.com.

Front-End Engineer - Austin, TX

We're a 30-person, product-focused SaaS company helping schools and students manage the scholarship process.

We're looking for a second front-end engineer to work here in Austin with me. We'll be building new products and improving our design and front-end for our current application, future applications, and internal tooling. You'll work with a super sharp engineering team (8 of us) accomplishing disproportionately large goals.

After 3 years, our main product has hundreds of thousands of active users, and while our front-end is still very nice to work in, I think we have tons of room to improve our front-end process, performance, and mobile friendliness. Come help us make it so.

I've got a gist with even more details: https://gist.github.com/jpcody/f68727f9d6b2e5c86206

Give that a read, and if you email careers@academicworks.com, it'll get to me. Thanks!
