Ask HN: Who is hiring? (February 2019)

At Jargon we're building the tools developers of voice applications (e.g., Amazon Alexa skills or Google Assistant shortcuts) need to manage their content, reach global users, and build compelling, engaging experiences.

We're looking for a talented Sr. Software Engineer that's interested in working on all aspects on our products, from the SDKs we provide to developers (such as https://www.npmjs.com/package/@jargon/alexa-skill-sdk), the backend of our voice conversation platform, and internal and customer facing websites.

We have an ambitious roadmap to build the tools that voice publishers need to take full advantage of the burgeoning voice market and would love for you to join us on the journey.

Experience developing for voice platforms (Amazon Alexa, Google Assistant, Siri, Cortana, etc.) is a plus but by no means required.
