Bay Labs - San Francisco (Union Square)

Bay Labs is at the forefront of bringing deep learning advances to critical unsolved healthcare problems. We have assembled an exceptional team of clinicians, engineers and scientists who are developing breakthrough technologies in cardiovascular imaging and care, addressing the largest cause of death in the US. The Bay Labs team brings diverse expertise to the problem of diagnosing and managing heart disease, with leaders in machine learning, visual neuroscience, robotics, and physics. We have teamed up with a network of world class clinical and academic advisors and made remarkable progress in a very short period of time. Current investors in Bay Labs are recognized leaders in venture capital.

1. We wish to find a versatile engineer, who can demonstrate a capability to scientifically develop, benchmark, and validate a wide variety of deep neural network architectures for the purpose of extracting clinically-relevant knowledge from medical images.

2. We are hiring to fill a role that blends data pipeline architect and site reliability engineer. Site Reliability Engineering (SRE) is what you get when you treat operations as if it’s a software problem. If you are a software engineer at heart with ops experience and want to work some craft on deep learning, this role is for you.

Converge | San Francisco, CA | Software Engineers | ONSITE | Full-time | Drones / Mobile / Web Apps

We're a revenue-generating enterprise software startup (seed stage) from MIT that makes it easy for skilled professionals (think construction, insurance, real estate, etc) to use drones everyday in their job through a combination of incredible AI and HRI.

* Looking for junior or senior software engineers, and (paid) interns. Everyday, we work on tech that spans from Drones to AI to UX to Data Viz to IOT. We're less concerned with your exact skill set and more about what you would find motivating to work on every day.

* We strongly prefer people who have an engineering/science degree, or equivalent work experience. If you've only taken a three month class on the "full stack," these positions will not be a good fit for you.

About Converge:

* Started in 2015, our founders were some of the first people to work on drones in the world, worked on the unmanned Blackhawk helicopter, and created the first mobile app ever for flying a drone (way back in 2008 at MIT…)

* We like people who have excelled at something outside of work, and are just downright interesting to have a conversation with.

* If you are looking for a keg, ping pong table or bro culture, we're not going to be a good fit for each other.

* Our team is small, we're very deliberate about hiring- you would be in the first 10 employees.

To get started, please get ahold of via the instructions here: https://www.cvg.io/careers/

If you come from an underrepresented group in tech, please get in touch w/ me (@edave) directly via my HackerNews profile.

Jet.com | https://jet.com/ | Hoboken (very close to NYC) | Dublin | Full-time | Onsite

----------

(From our careers page)

We need super smart engineers from all levels to help us build one of the best engineered e-commerce platform in the world (big talk we know, but that is our goal!). Our engineers combine creativity, curiosity, and drive to continuously perfect and revolutionize Jet from the inside out. We are looking to bring more intellectually curious engineers who are passionate about technology in general (Jet is a technology first company and prides itself on its culture of learning and knowledge sharing and we want all our engineers to be as passionate as we are!)

Our platform is largely an event driven platform implemented via a microservice architecture. The platform runs on Microsoft Azure and uses a large number of technologies and middle ware. The bulk of backend code is written in a functional style (F#) and our system of record is an event sourced system (essentially a log of all actions on the platform). We use a mix of Kafka, Redis, Elastic Search, Azure SQL, Event Store and Azure Storage for our data stores. About 50% of the platform runs on Linux and the rest Windows (although we move into more containerization we will see a shift towards Linux).

----------

I've been working at Jet since mid-February, and I can honestly say this is the best job I've ever had. It personally checks off every single box I could have a for a dream job:

- Incredible growth. We were the fastest startup to hit a billion dollar valuation, and we just got bought by Walmart for 3.3 billion. With the Fortune 1 at our backs there are some really amazing opportunities and projects that are just getting started.

- Functional programming in F#. Never been more productive coding. And in general we have a very modern tech stack that is a pleasure to work with.

- Tech talks and workshops all the time. I'm learning more than I ever have.

- Extremely competent management. It feels like they really care about employees' happiness here, we've got experienced people at the helm, and it is amazing to see what a company can look like when you have a fantastic management team bringing their A-game. Really, it's incredible to have to try hard to find something to complain about.

- All the trappings of modern startup life. Free gym membership, lots of free food, etc.

We're hiring people of all different types of experience for all different types of roles. More information about specific roles can be found here: https://jet.com/careers . You can apply on the individual role pages.

If you have any questions (commuting from NYC, about Hoboken, what's going on in the company, anything really), feel free to ask here or send a message to "nat" at the domain that I work on.

Ardusat | https://www.ardusat.com | Salt Lake City, UT | Full-stack Engineer, Front End Engineer

Come help change the way science and math are taught in schools! Ardusat is a growing educational technology company providing engaging experiences to science and math students by creating technology, products, and curriculum preparing them to run custom experiments on real satellites in space. With over $6B available in public and private STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math) grants, this is an exciting space to work in. We are a small (9 person) team with a successful round of seed funding and a lot of really promising district pilot programs. Everyone at Ardusat is here because we believe parts of the education system are broken, and need to be fixed. We want our work to impact students’ lives all over the world by cultivating more interest in math, science, and technology.

We're looking for an experienced engineer to work on building out our student/teacher software features and help us scale as we grow. We've got a great working platform that is used by schools around the world to conduct science experiments, create and discover curriculum, and help manage, document, and assess Maker projects in the classroom. We have tons of ideas, but we need help taking this tool set to the next level. As an Ardusat software engineer, you would be responsible for architecting major new features and portions of our system - we're not just ticking off a bug list here. The ideal candidate is someone who has experience building web applications from the ground up and is excited by owning a large portion of product direction and design decisions.

Development Process: Our development process is organized around 2-3 week sprints, and we have 2 in-person engineering tag ups a week. We are a small team and encourage autonomy, so we do asynchronous daily updates (accomplishments, blockers, collaboration needs) but try to avoid getting too bogged down in process or unnecessary meetings. We value accomplishments, not time-in-office, so we try to optimize our process around allowing flexibility and personal accountability.

Tech Stack: Our website and API are powered by Ruby on Rails, our experiment tools and platform use Angular.js, our real-time features use Node.js, and we have a handful of microservices related to our data pipeline using Python. On the database side, we use Redis to coordinate services and Postgres for our primary data store. We’re especially interested in candidates with Ruby, Javascript, and Angular experience, but for the right candidate we’re open to other languages/platform experience with a demonstrated track record for learning new technology. Although everyone wears a lot of hats at an early startup like Ardusat, this position will be more backend focused, so experience with server management, cloud platforms (we use AWS), Docker, CI, or API design is a plus (although not required). Experience with "maker" technologies including Arduino, Raspberry Pi, 3D printing, etc. is also a plus.
