Underdog.io | New York, NY | https://underdog.io | Full-Time | ONSITE or REMOTE

We’re looking to hire a full-stack engineer (engineer #3/employee #6).

Today, Underdog.io is a curated marketplace for talent. We connect amazing people with founders and hiring managers at top technology companies.

We don’t charge placement fees because we’re not recruiters. We’re building technology to reduce the noise of the job search and match. We started Underdog.io because we experienced the pains associated with (1) hiring while working at top startups and (2) looking for new opportunities.

Our platform is currently live in SF and NYC, where we work with 180+ awesome startups. We’ve had to turn away one of every two companies that have tried to join the network. We've proudly bootstrapped and profitable.

As we scale, we’ll focus on building tools for candidates to organize, search, and discover new job opportunities. In our view of the future, job candidates don’t receive unsolicited outreach from recruiters and companies don’t pay placement fees for the vast majority of their hires. Job search is organized and talented candidates have more high-quality options.

We use Python/Flask, Javascript/Node.js, PostgreSQL, Elasticsearch, AWS. We're also working on a project in Ruby/Sinatra. And we're big supporters of open source.

Startup, DC area, remote OK. Contract (to hire?).

Work for startup on a fast growth curve. 30-40 hours a week + 1/4 pager rotation (very little overnight usage, so this is not typically a big deal.) Location unimportant, but must overlap working day at least 4+ hours with EST.

5+ years of Python

5+ years of Javascript, CSS

CS degree

Nice to haves: ExtJS, Android, IPhone, Ionic, NLP.

Conversion to full time with equity possible.

Please send resumes to jobs@4rc.io

REMOTE | Pasadena, CA | QLess (http://www.qless.com)

Waiting in line sucks. We're working to eliminate waiting in line, and have saved users over 1,200 years of time so far. We make it easy to get in line with a text or app, and then be notified when it's your turn, so you can use your time as you see fit.

I've been working at QLess for about a year now and love it. The team is all remote so you have the freedom to work from where ever you want (typing this from South America right now). My coworkers here are very smart, dedicated, and welcoming, and it feels good to work on a product that helps people save time every day.

Hiring a Java Software Engineer, see http://www.qless.com/careers/java-engineer/ for more details.

Also feel free to contact me with any questions: craig at qless.com

Roxhill Media | London, UK | PHP Developer | Onsite

We combine analysis of live media sources - from national papers to twitter - with a comprehensive graph of journalists, figures, organisations and topics, to provide valuable insight to our users in the world of PR. Since launching last November we now count many of the world's largest financial institutions and consultancies amongst our happy paying customers. We distinguish ourselves by the quality of our product, our agility, and our use of cutting-edge, thoughtfully applied technology.

We need developers to design & build a mixture of REST APIs and microservices - backed by an exciting mixture of tools, technologies and data - to deliver our ever-expanding and improving product. While not an Ops role, you'll also be involved in the day-to-day maintenance and deployment of the product, and the fully-containerised infrastructure it runs on.

You should have commercial experience in:

- PHP 5.3+ (or similar) for several years. - Using an MVC framework. - Designing and implementing a RESTful API. - Integrating with other services and data stores. - Implementing best practices on all levels, from syntax to structure and architecture. - Scaling up. - Planning for failure and learning from it.

Bonus points if you’ve worked with any of these which we use extensively:

Elasticsearch; Redis; Big MySQL tables; Docker; DynamoDB (or other distributed KV stores); MapReduce; Continuous Integration; Queues (asynchronous, event-based architectures).
