Azavea - Philadelphia, PA - Full Time On-site

jobs.azavea.com

Azavea uses geospatial data to build software for civic and social impact, and we are looking to grow our Geospatial Insights team that develops custom web and mobile software for public health, climate change, law enforcement, elections and civic applications as well as our HunchLab, open source DistrictBuilder and Cicero products.

We’re looking for a software engineer that is passionate about building applications that will have a positive impact – someone interested in public service, but not necessarily in working for a government or a non-profit organization. We are looking for someone who thrives on working in a variety of technology environments, and wants to build visually slick applications that have well-engineered architectures and provide a responsive user experience.

You should...

- Know how to build and support scalable web applications in Python/Django or another MVC framework (C#/.Net, Ruby/Rails, JS/AngularJS, Java/JVM/Spring, Scala/Play). We do a lot of work in Python/Django, Javascript, and Scala and dabble in others depending on client and project requirements.

- Demonstrate fluency in core web technologies (HTML/CSS/JS) and contemporary Javascript libraries like jQuery, React, or AngularJS.

- Express solid understanding of MVC architecture, RESTful design patterns, and the DRY principle. - Be comfortable managing VMs and working in a Linux environment.

- Be interested in working with a small, collaborative team on meaningful projects.

- Get excited about a diversity of both projects and technologies.

RINSE | San Francisco, CA and Santa Monica, CA | Full Time

Rinse is a technology-enabled dry cleaning and laundry delivery service. We've grown at double-digit month-over-month rates for two years now, and our customers love us!

We have a number of open positions:

1) We are hiring evening Delivery Drivers. This is a great job for students looking to earn some extra cash while exploring the city. We offer mileage reimbursement, good hourly pay, and a W-2 pay stub.

2) We're also hiring a Customer Experience leader to scale our (excellent!) customer service team. We pride ourselves in delighting our customers with surprising attention and thought, and would love to bring someone on board who knows how to scale and manage this important function, without compromising our values.

3) Rinse continues to search for qualified Senior Software Engineers. We're primarily a Django / Python shop with a fair amount of javascript/HTML5 thrown in. We're building tools for our customers, our drivers, our internal staff, and our vendors. It's a "target rich" environment with plenty of opportunity to make a direct and meaningful impact on the business! We're solving problems as varied as demand forecasting, route optimization, QR tagging for inventory control, and a suite of mobile apps for our customers and staff.

Understory | Embedded Engineer, Location manager, Data Scientist, ME | Somerville, MA, remote

Understory—named for the area in a rainforest beneath the forest canopy—creates hardware and analytics around rain, hail, wind and other weather events directly at the earth’s surface, where the risk to life and property is greatest. While traditional, radar-enabled weather centers collect data by analyzing conditions observed in the atmosphere, Understory’s ground-truth-based detection is a marked enhancement in both resolution and fidelity, which leads to better insight and early detection of risks.

You can get a glimpse of our hail gun that we use to test our stations on our recent press -- http://t.co/ECOgpk8ITM
