Ask HN: Who is hiring? (March 2016)

Carbon Five works closely with companies to build solid products, designed with a strong consideration for the people who use them. We are developers, designers, and product managers who know how to work fast and deliver together. We understand that products evolve iteratively and know how to take advantage of that fact to maximize useful feedback during the product lifecycle.

Carbon Five hires smart people who work well with others and care more about doing fantastic work than getting all of the credit. Egos are checked at the door. Teams are expected to solve problems and given the support to do so without micro-management. It's a requirement because every project is different and only a dynamic team can deliver the quality and productivity that goes along with the name.

Employees work sane hours because we value the work/life balance. We focus on delivering the right stuff rather than the most: less but better. You don't have to worry about defending your nights and weekends, they're yours. We want everyone to come in fresh and enthusiastic, ready to build good products with a clear mind.

If working someplace where delivering quality isn't up for debate and you like the idea of working on new things every 4-6 months, Carbon Five might be the right place for you. Learn more about what makes us tick by checking out what we write about.

Rinse is a technology-enabled dry cleaning and laundry delivery service. We've grown at double-digit month-over-month rates for two and a half years now, our business fundamentals are solid, and our customers love us! We have a number of open positions:

1) We're looking for qualified Software Engineers of all degrees of experience. We're primarily a Django / Python shop with a fair amount of javascript/HTML5/Backbone.js thrown in. We're building tools and 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. See https://www.rinse.com/careers/software-engineer/

2) We're also hiring a Head of Customer Operations to scale and lead our (excellent!) customer service team, while also driving efforts that impact customer success across the rest of the organization. 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. See https://www.rinse.com/careers/head-customer-operations/

3) We have an opening for a smart and experienced Head of User Acquisition. The idea candidate would have strong analytical skills, a good eye for the kind of marketing that would improve our brand, and experience creating and managing both performance marketing and content marketing campaigns. Since we're a growing consumer business, this is a great role for someone who wants to manage a significant advertising budget over multiple mediums and ad networks.

H5mag is the platform to create beautiful online magazines. We're aimed at graphic designers — who often are still focused on print media and have almost no online design experience yet — and enable them to create responsive online interactive magazines. Our platform makes something that for them used to be almost impossible, magically easy — and the enthusiasm we receive from our users when they get empowered is extremely rewarding.

Technically: the H5mag editor is basically a big Javascript web app. Our backend is a relatively simple data store/rendering layer written in PHP/MySQL.

Some concrete things we want you to work on in the coming period...

* Improve the performance of our editor and reader front-end, eliminate layouts and repaints, simplify the editor architecture * Make our users happy with new, often requested features, such as guides & grids, a new font manager, and undo/redo * Develop improvements for our editor, such as a new edition management UX and new styling widgets * Work with us on a system for real-time collaborative editing * Want to know what moves our users? Help them in our designer workshops and discover their needs.

We're still a small team of developers and UX designers, so you have quite the opportunity to make your mark. Informal atmosphere, an interesting and simply said pretty great team, with time for fun, time to learn from each other — and of course time for hard, challenging work. Want to know more? Shoot off an email to me: joost [dot] schuttelaar [at] h5mag.com and I'd be happy to share!
