Clever (YC S12) is hiring full-stack engineers in San Francisco to hack education

Steve Jobs described education as one of the final frontiers still untouched by modern technology. Clever (https://getclever.com) is building the data platform needed for great software to make its way into the classroom. Just like Stripe has made it simple for developers to build payment processing into their apps, Clever has made it easy for developers to build applications for schools using student data.

We're a small team of highly technical hackers with deep experience in education. Since releasing the Clever APIs in 2012, we've signed up the most innovative education companies as partners and deployed our platform to 1 in every 7 schools in America. Clever is making it easier for 4M students to use technology in the classroom, and that number is growing rapidly.

We have all the usual SF startup perks: a beautiful loft office in SoMa, free lunch, and great benefits. More importantly, you’ll be working around a team of 24 smart, talented people (9 engineers) who are all equally committed to solving this particular problem.

We’re always pushing each other to learn new things, both technical and nontechnical - in the past few weeks we’ve done collaborative tech talks on things like:

-exoplanets

-kitesurfing

-Magic: the Gathering

-Regular Expressions for Regular People

(We also play a lot of bughouse chess.)

We’re looking for full-stack engineers who can hack in Node, Go, and Python (or are willing to learn), but more importantly, we’re looking for people who share our passion for improving education. Come help us change the classroom: https://clever.com/about/jobs

SpatialKey - REMOTE

QA Lead

We’re looking for someone to lead QA for SpatialKey. We’re a small 100% remote team of ~15 people. We create SaaS mapping and datavis software. Our largest vertical is the insurance industry, where we sell software to visualize large amounts of data and assess the impact of natural disasters, like tornado strikes, flooding, hurricanes, etc.

You’d be in charge of QA for the entire product. You’d start off managing one other QA resource, with the expectation that you would grow that team as we need it. You’d need to be very hands on and able to automate much of the QA process. We expect you to be able to write code to automate tests and come up with ways to make QA more efficient. Coming up with and executing test plans, working directly with the dev team to dig into issues, etc.

We’re profitable and entirely self-funded, so no VC breathing down our neck. We’re building a long-term business and are incredibly proud of what we’ve accomplished in the 7 years we’ve been at it so far.
