Ask HN: Who is hiring? (September 2020)

TL;DR: Funded, remote friendly startup with product/market fit is looking for a senior frontend engineer - react frontend, .NET backend, running on Azure - to be an early member of a rapidly growing engineering team.

Longer version: DemandStar is looking to hire our first Senior Frontend Engineer.

DemandStar is an eProcurement platform and supplier network for city, county, and municipal governments. We already have >500 governments and >100k vendors actively using our platform.

Governments post their bids on our platform (for free!), and we alert our network of vendors. Vendors win because they no longer have to check 30 different town government websites every week for bid opportunities, and governments win by getting on average 3x more responses to every bid, which means more competition and lower prices.

It's a small team of 10, but unlike most startups this size we're significantly de-risked. The company is cashflow positive and we recently closed a $2M fundraising round (led by Version One) to fuel more growth. We already have product/market fit, we already have a huge customer base, and we already know (more or less) what we need to do to turn the dials on growth.

We have a heavy contingent in the Pacific Northwest, but we are building a remote-first culture and actively growing outside the PNW. And unlike some startups, we’re big believers in not pulling 60-80 hour weeks. Many on the team have young families that they like to spend time with.

You'll be an early member of a rapidly growing, product-oriented engineering team.

If the idea of making the procurement process smoother for small and medium-sized governments, or you love the idea of directly and quantifiably saving taxpayer money... I'd love to chat. Send me an email (in my profile) and lets talk.

Do you want to make a difference for the companies behind all the products you take for granted and reduce pollution at the same time? Then Mapistry is the place for you. The EPA can write regulations on top of regulations, but if it is too difficult or too expensive to follow these rules, companies will drop the ball. At Mapistry, you’ll help protect the environment by making it easier and more affordable for companies to follow the rules.

Mapistry is a post revenue, venture-backed startup. Our customers range from SMBs to Fortune 100 companies. Some manufacture products like wine, cardboard, gypsum, garage doors, medicine, precast cement, and pickles. Others provide services like trucking, busing, recycling or tank washing. They all have one thing in common: they are overwhelmed by environmental regulations. That’s where Mapistry comes in to help our customers avoid lawsuits and fines, and protect the environment too.
