I work on the dispatch team at Uber. Whenever you use the app we are the team that connects riders with vehicles. Obviously for our team real-time is key. The team was actually one of the first production users of Node.js, but we also have C/C++ and Scala in the stack today.

I know Uber is also looking for Android devs, PostgreSQL experts, Python devs, "big" data/data science/ML people and systems/devops. Basically if you are smart we are growing really fast.

I'm sure most people have heard of Uber but if I can answer any questions I'm @sh1mmer on Twitter and my email is tomc at uber dot com.

Sugarcube ( https://www.getsugarcube.com ) San Francisco, CA (preferred) Sugarcube is a fast-paced, early stage startup. Everything we do at Sugarcube is beautiful, simple and fun. You'll be challenged, inspired and proud. No matter what your job is here, you'll be part of the team that makes revolutionary products that set the bar for excellent user experiences. Our first product will revolutionize entertainment on…

Just curious about the product, it seems like a more integrated version of the Chromecast, don't you see that as a problem competing? Or do you hope to one day merge?

There are a lot of streaming devices that currently exist but none have made the experience seamless or simply enough for anyone to use.

We see it as a similar market to MP3 players around 2001, prior to the iPod. Nearly anyone can figure out how to use an iPod, can't say the same for Chromecast.

We also want to allow users to stream any app without having to wait for developers update their app with an SDK.

It would be more accurate to say Chromecast is a small subset of Sugarcube.

Shoot me an email if you have more questions sri getsugarcube.com

Most of our projects are responsive and we're as committed to the front-end user experience as we are to what's happening under the hood.

Iterable (http://iterable.com) - San Francisco, CA

Come join Iterable, the next-gen email optimization company. Email usage is changing, but the technology and capabilities haven't caught up to the 21st century.

We're a small team of hackers and thinkers who are creating the next generation email optimization platform. Our team has experience at big tech companies (Twitter, Google) and we want to bring and improve the technology that powers user growth and commerce at these places to everyone. This means writing code that improves the lives of our customers (series seed and series A companies) and their millions of email subscribers. One of our top level goals is to build a uniquely fun and growth oriented company culture. This is a journey, not a rat race.

Knowledge sharing in any capacity is highly valued here -- are you interested in prediction markets or PGP encryption? Do you enjoy teaching posture techniques or purely functional data structures to others? We pair program, design together, and generally create a learn-and-teach environment here.

If you're interested in coming on board, you can help with some challenges we face:

  - Scale our API to beyond millions of requests 
  - Design and write performant, beautiful interfaces 
  - Write software to build machine learned user models 
  - Make data visualizations for our email and user data 
  - Design an immutable infrastructure for our platform

Some aspects of our culture that make us different:

  - We are all very focused on self improvement 
  - Our company has egalitarian and transparent values: work when you want, on what you want. 
  - We are chill and empathetic people 
  - The company is completely transparent

Technologies you'll work with:

  - Scala
  - Elasticsearch
  - Postgres
  - AngularJS
  - Play! Framework
You'll get to work with us at our office in Twitter's building on Market St. If this sounds like an interesting opportunity for you, please email us: YW5kcmV3QGl0ZXJhYmxlLmNvbQ==
