ProcedureFlow | Frontend Developer (React), Full Stack .NET Developer | REMOTE in Eastern Canada | Full-Time | https://procedureflow.com

ProcedureFlow is a platform for your company's procedures inspired by the way you work. We're like GitHub but for visual procedures. We have change requests, everyone can have a "draft" branch, a side-by-side diff view of the flows, etc.

ProcedureFlow has great customers that consider us vital to their business. We have ambitious goals and need your help. We've grown 600% in the last 4 years, we've more than doubled our revenue and staff in the last year, and we recently raised $2.9 million in Series A funding.

Top 3 complex problems we're working on solving:

  1. GitHub for visual procedures; versioning a knowledge graph.
  2. Adding a public API for flows, event data, and critical features like SCIM.
  3. Bridging the gap between documentation, execution, maintenance, and insight of a process.
Our technology stack includes: React, C#, Postgres, Redis, Node, Terraform and AWS.

We're looking for someone who has:

  • Experience building cloud-based web apps in C# or React.
  • Experience as a generalist working on both the frontend, backend, and anything it takes to solve problems and delight users.
  • Pride in working on projects to successful completion involving a wide variety of technologies and systems.
  • The ability to stitch together many different services and processes together even if they have not worked with them before.
  • Empathy with their users and are stewards of crafting great experiences.
  • Skills for upholding best practices in engineering, security, and design.
We try to make our technical interview process very practical and fair. We want to understand your skills and get a sense of what it's like to work together. For example, we don't use LeetCode, whiteboarding, ask you to recite an algorithms, etc.

Check out our engineering blog for more insights into our culture: https://medium.com/procedureflow-engineering

Interested? Send us your resume, GitHub profile, or anything you'd like to showcase: https://jobs.procedureflow.com/o/senior-developer-full-stack...

I'm a co-founder and the VP of Engineering. Happy to answer any questions!

Runway | Remote in USA and Canada | https://www.runway.com Runway replaces the operating model that almost every growing business has in spreadsheet form and transforms it into a visual model of how every part of your business is connected. This gives everyone from the CEO to the individual contributor a shared understanding of how the business works, where you’re going, and why. With this new context, your team can engage in higher-level conversations about what’s right for the company. Together, you can easily explore which levers to pull and find out, in real-time, if doing so will help you meet your goals.

Runway does all of this in a way that makes you want to dig into the data — not run away from it — through a fundamental rethinking of the core primitives of the spreadsheet. Because when you have the information you need, your team can ask better questions and make the best decisions possible.

We’ve put together an exceptional team of ex-Stripe, Coinbase, Facebook, and Twitter engineers, many of whom are experienced founders. We are backed by folks like a16z and Garry Tan from Initialized, Dylan Field from Figma, Akshay Kothari from Notion, Naval Ravikant and Elad Gil. If you’d like to learn more about our team, our culture, and what’s it like to work at Runway, please check out our Working at Runway profile along with our Values here: https://runwayhq.notion.site/Working-at-Runway-c7a9a7c8ef914...

Our open roles in Engineering, Product, and Design as well as Go-To-Market are listed on the bottom of the page: https://runwayhq.notion.site/Working-at-Runway-c7a9a7c8ef914... Stack: Typescript, React, Go, GraphQL, Postgres, GCP/Kube, Figma.

Here's some extra info about us:

ProcedureFlow is not your typical flowchart tool. We took the good parts, like the visual map, and fixed all the bad things:

  • The "editing" experience is secondary. Viewing and navigating the flows is the priority.
  • We democratize your company's procedures. The flows are meant to be used and improved by everyone at your company.
  • We only have so many shapes that can be added. You don't just drag/drop a "rectangle" and make it purple. You add an "action" shape that has semantics.
  • We recommend making smaller flows and linking them together rather than one big flowchart understood by a few people.
Here's a recent blog post about building our API:

https://medium.com/procedureflow-engineering/building-api-au...

We offer:

  • Competitive salary
  • Autonomous remote work and working with a great team.
  • Stock options signing bonus. Topped off based on individual/company performance and each funding round.
  • Vacation: 3 weeks to start. We're very flexible with additional time off (errands, family time, appointments, etc).
  • RRSP matching up to 4%.
  • Good health coverage.
  • Good work life balance. We don’t crunch or work regular overtime – deadlines are owned by us. Rare overtime like after hours maintenance means compensated time off.
  • An opportunity to get in on the ground floor of a fast growing Canadian startup. You’ll be very key to our success -- helping us grow the team into a well-oiled machine. Being an early employee means you have the possibility to grow into larger roles as the company grows (engineering IC, management, specialization, etc).

https://fishtail.ai | REMOTE | Full-time | Data people (science/eng/devops) + backend/frontend/full stack

We are a super un-sexy, VC-backed, revenue-generating, Trade Finance automation company (think Pipe for the real world) that's bringing the the $10tn Trade Finance space in to the 21st century.

The problem we're solving

When Walmart gives La Croix a $100k order for seltzer, not only does Walmart not pay after receiving goods for 3-4 months but La Croix has to cover the cost of actually making their goods for a bunch of time (months). As a small business, this sucks hard. Fishtail will lend to La Croix when they get an order from Walmart so they can satisfy demand without tying up huge amounts of working capital. Usually banks will lend to folks only when the product makes it to Walmart (and only to large companies, who don't traditionally need $) -- the net effect of Fishtail is that we lend earlier in the chain to smaller businesses (which is a super duper hard problem).

Tech stack

Our web stack is Ruby on Rails + turbo/stimulus/tailwind - data stack is python/pytorch + spark. We get a boatload of data tracking every vessel in the water/every plane in the sky (among other datasets like every trade transaction that has happened over the past N years).

Fun fact

We have a sustainability-linked trade finance product where we can tie the interest rate of our loans to the sustainability of the individual shipment (i.e. the greener the shipment, the better your interest rate) -- this is super nifty when you consider that transportation is responsible for ~30% of the world's green house gas emissions and there's really no good way to identify the best option to get from A to B.

What we need

We're looking for support taking our product to the next level on all fronts (engineering, data, sales, marketing/propaganda, etc) but are mostly looking for more data people and web people to help us build out our credit/performance risk models + customer-facing product.

Reach out to hiring@fishtail.ai if you want to help small businesses win while saving the planet with us.
