San Francisco (or Bay Area) | Pearl Travel Tech (product website http://permiso.me)

The partners at http://www.immigrationlaw.com identified the problem and we were setup to create a solution (and sell to whomever so we are not restricted to their clients!)

We are looking for a lead developer for our "full-stack" - our app is developed in F#, hosted on Amazon, uses a Redis data store, etc. We are not scared of using "new" technology :)

The team is small so you will have control of your own destiny (as well as how we structure your salary/benefits/package!)

Our "corporate" website is http://www.pearltraveltech.com

Pachyderm (YC W15) is looking for our first hire! | San Francisco | Onsite only

Love Golang, Docker and distributed systems? Pachyderm is trying to build a better Hadoop!

pachyderm.io

github.com/pachyderm/pachyderm

What would data analytics infrastructure (namely Hadoop) look like if we rebuilt it from scratch today? We think it would be containerized, modular, and easy enough for a single person to use while still being scalable enough for a whole company. Tools like Docker and Kubernetes provide the perfect building blocks for us revolutionize data infrastructure!

Pachyderm's is looking for our first hire! We went through YC W15, raised a strong seed round($2M), and are looking for someone to help lead our core engineering team. Pachyderm is just founders right now, so you'd be getting in right at the ground floor and have an enormous impact on the success and direction of the company as well as building the rest of the engineering team.

We pay competitive SF-level salaries along with significant equity, full benefits, and all the usual startup perks. This position is based in SF, but we offer relocation assistance.
