Segment — San Francisco, Infrastructure Engineering

We're looking for engineers to be part of our core engineering team, owning our distributed data processing infrastructure. We process billions of requests a month, growing incredibly quickly, and write primarily in Go and Node.js.

In particular, we're looking for new teammates who are comfortable with building and operating distributed systems on EC2. We have a service oriented architecture (hate monolithic repos) and operate one of the largest combined Amazon Redshift clusters.

As a team, we love to open-source most of our work: https://github.com/segmentio https://github.com/segmentio/yal https://github.com/segmentio/nightmare https://github.com/segmentio/metalsmith https://github.com/segmentio/myth https://github.com/segmentio/analytics.js

We're currently 36 people, with substantial revenue. But the biggest and most challenging engineering problems lie ahead. We're a key piece of infrastructural data plumbing for thousands of web businesses, and we need to interoperate reliably and seamlessly with hundreds of integration partners.

Email myself peteratsegment.com, calvinatsegment.com (cto/co-founder) or drop us a note here: https://segment.com/jobs/descriptions/infrastructure-enginee...

Zapier - REMOTE - full stack engineer.

Zapier is a platform for connecting APIs via a simple UI. Most of our users don't even know what an API is. We have some really cool stuff coming this year that you can help us build.

By full stack we mean you might be replacing a core piece of the infrastructure with something more specialized yesterday, writing React.js components today and then debugging the wackiest API you've ever seen tomorrow.

We're doing hundreds of millions of API calls for users every week. We're still pretty small, so you can have huge impact, but we are also a real, growing business so you can have a secure gig.

Box - San Francisco and Palo Alto, CA - Full time - Frontend & full stack engineers

Crocodoc (YC W10) founder here. When our company was acquired by Box in 2013, we launched a new set of developer APIs on the Box platform for anyone (even those who don't use Box itself) to use for converting documents to HTML. We're now powering apps from LinkedIn to CoTap to the newest version of WebEx.

We've also open-sourced one of our biggest projects (https://github.com/box/viewer.js) and are expanding into developer experience as well.

We're looking for frontend and full stack engineers to join our close-knit team and help us push the limit of what browsers and mobile devices can do. (Fast, pixel-perfect rendering of documents using just HTML, SVG, and CSS turns out to be really hard!)

We're also building out a developer experience team and are looking for someone who is passionate about UX, APIs, and making developer tools easy and fun to use.

Drop me a note if you're interested at damico@box.com or ryan@crocodoc.com

I found Grovo through Hacker News and I couldn't be happier. It's the hands-down best place I've ever worked and I highly encourage everyone to take a look.
