Likeable Local - Portland, Maine - Social Media Tools for Small Businesses http://www.likeablelocal.com/ We at Likeable Local are looking to grow our team and seeking two talented and motivated software engineers. One immediate role would be perfect for someone who is great with numbers and analytics. The other role is better suited towards someone who loves working in the front-end and loves making things look and i…

I've always thought Portland, ME was an incredible city. Just curious - what made you choose there (especially coming from NYC)? What is the tech scene like?

Hey! We love it here. I chose it for family reasons initially but am happily settled in. We've found a fun talented and creative community at http://www.thinktankportland.com/ . There are pros and cons for sure. It's easy to get to NYC (just about an hour flight and the local airport is a breeze to use). But not as easy to get to SF (sadly no direct flights). We've got affordable housing, some good school systems, access to nature and the ocean and the beautiful maine coast, islands, amazing summers, lots of great people, and hardly any traffic at all.

Access to talent may not be as plentiful here as elsewhere but in a smaller world it is also easier to be found by prospective hires. If anyone out there is searching for software development jobs here in Portland, Maine they should be able to find us- although we've got lots of work to do there... But anyway, if you're interested in learning more about this area let me know what else I can tell you!

FULLTIME - Software Engineers in San Francisco, CA Rentlytics, Inc - http://rentlytics.com

Apartment Investors are overwhelmed by their data, and the giants are focused on big-data solutions, but reality says otherwise. Most investment funds have a small data problem, they cannot make sense of 100's of megabytes of data. That is why off-the-shelf business intelligence solutions misses the problem completely. We're developing the solution our customers have been clamoring for.

Join our team of 5 people, and come make a big difference in an industry of dinosaurs. Our existing customers are all very happy, and we have a ton more waiting for their rollout of the software. We use Python/Django/Postgres on the backend and CoffeeScript with Backbone.Marionette on the frontend. Our team is based in SF, but we're happy to relocate you.

Get in touch: phil@rentlytics.com

Moveline (TechStars NYC '12) is transforming an industry older than the internal combustion engine.

We’re looking for a solid full-stack javascript engineer who loves Settlers of Catan, remote development, and can tell the difference between an IPA and a Lager.

ABOUT US

We’re passionate about building software that dramatically improves the customer experience, end-to-end, around moving. Our web product is at the heart of it.

We are also working with a world-class set of investors and advisors, who you’ll have the opportunity to meet and interact with on a regular basis.

ABOUT YOU

- You are fluent in Javascript – our stack is MEAN: Mongo/Express/Angular/Node (and Backbone) – and you are interested in Golang, which we're using to build out some sweet services

- You are passionate about code and elegant solutions as well as user experience, and want to work with others who are similarly so. You can’t sleep at night knowing you left something not DRY’d and tested

- You have architected and developed end-to-end products that are currently running business applications on a production environment

- You have an obsessive attention to detail

- You thrive when you are working closely with others on a small team

- You want to build stuff that solves real human problems

- You can explain the differences, chemical and philosophical, between a lager and an IPA

- You have a panic attack if you don’t push code before noon

- You don’t care that the moving industry isn’t sexy

- You would rather make money than make the front page of TechCrunch (though we do that too)

COMPENSATION

Market salary and meaningful equity is available. We’re primarily a remote engineering team, with the company (ops, marketing, customer service) based in Las Vegas in the heart of Tony Hsieh’s Downtown Project. Hackers in Vegas or remote in the US welcome.

Full Time or Contract-to-Hire only please. No freelancers or recruiters need apply.
