Ask HN: Who is hiring? (April 2013)

SF (Remote)

Hiring Frontend and Backend RoR devs

Email hnjobs@easypost.co

I'm the CTO of a social dating startup called Coffee Meets Bagel (http://www.coffeemeetsbagel.com) based in San Francisco, and we're looking for a Lead Mobile Engineer to build our iOS and Android apps. We have an existing app but, honestly, it sucks; you'd be rebuilding the apps from scratch.

We are a small, close-knit team of 5 full time people. The technical team consists of a backend engineer (me) and a front-end engineer, plus a remote backend developer. You would be the first mobile developer. We're looking for someone who has experience building either iOS or Android apps (both is even better) so you can hit the ground running. Other than that, we are open to a wide range of candidates - if you are a solid engineer, are highly innovative, and are excited about a fast-paced environment where your ideas will be heard, then please contact me at adam-at-coffeeemeetsbagel-dot-com.

Disclaimer: though it can help, even working at a dating startup can't guarantee that you will find a date.

Make a difference, change the world, have fun, do something cool.

We're looking for creative hackers and programmers to join our dev team.

I could be accused of drinking the Kool-aid, but I honestly believe Smarterer is doing something unique and important. We're approaching a point where traditional university credentialing isn't enough, skills are changing too quickly and what makes someone effective in a role or job is evolving. New roles appear daily that no (or few) traditional universities have courses for: e.g. growth hacker, social media evangelist, CNC machinist / programmer. People are acquiring more and more skills through non-traditional means. Nascent "education 2.0" initiaitives are exciting, but they still face the problem of measuring and credentialing, especially those that learn online.

How do you show what you know?

Smarterer has created an innovative testing system and scoring algorithm that allows rapid evolution of content, skill measurment, and question characterization. We've made it fun as well as rigorous, based on modern testing theories.

Smarterer is helping enable a revolution: in the changing job marketplace, in education and learning, and in the way people measure their own skills and share that knowledge.

Our mission: Measure the world's skills

At Cue we connect our users with the right piece of information at the right time by understanding and correlating related data from across their email, contacts, calendar, files, and social streams.

This is a really hard problem with real world impact. Our software processes billions of documents in real time, extracts semantics from text, and searches across disparate document sets and document types. I also honestly believe our product has the opportunity to change the world by making everyone in it more productive. We've built everything with a team of only 12: 10 eng, 1 designer, 1 everything else.

We're hiring all manner of engineers and engineering interns - generalists, devops, iOS, Android, NLP, ML. We primarily use Python, Java, JavaScript, and Objective-C but we always love to talk to people with great general skills over specific knowledge.
