>>> Senior Rails/JS Product Focus - FULL-TIME or HALF-TIME with benefits
We're making higher education more affordable: Helping students compare their bookstore’s prices to those of its online competitors; Giving recommendations on close-to-market bookstore prices; Getting professor book choices in faster; Helping bookstores buy and sell books on a level playing field.
We guide every stage of a used book’s life. We help students save money, and bookstores become and stay relevant, competitive, and transparent.
> Metrics: 350 colleges and universities, serving 4.5 million students, tracking ~200k unique book titles, integrating with 7 vendors & 20 retailers, raising the “win rate” for bookstores to 80%, and dropping prices across the board. 17 employees, 3 part-time. 2 dogs. 5 cats. 3 children.
Profitable. Growing.
> Code: Ruby, Rails, JS (Coffeescript/Backbone), Clojure for Hadoop, MySQL on RDS, AWS w/ Chef. We love experiments and go with what works! We also love making a stable, solid product which is why we have a ton of metrics and a one-click build pipeline.
What’s in it for you: A great team and company culture, benefits (even for part time!), a laptop, unlimited books, BART pass, pool table, healthy (and un-) office snacks, great conversation during our yearly company work-cations, and hard, challenging, fulfilling, good (in the public sense) work.
> Message us if: You want to help make education better. You’ve got strong Rails knowledge (several years worth), solid testing practices, a good head for architecture, and know enough JS to help out on front-end. A stats background, experience with Hadoop and knowledge of scheduling algorithms would be awesome, but not required.
How to get the job: Write a cover letter to jobs@verbasoftware.com that speaks to why this job might fit with you, and how you could help us out. The first step is a phone screen to solve a small programming problem. Then we’ll schedule an on-site interview for a few hours, where you'll present for 15 minutes on any topic you'd like, have you walk through some of our code with us, and then deep-dive into the whole stack. Also we’ll ask you some historical behavior questions, not logic puzzles. Then we’ll make you an offer, and you’ll accept and we have a new employee party!

I read your website for 5 minutes and still have no idea what you're offering. Can you summarize in a sentence?
Compare, where students come to buy their books through a portal that compares their book store's prices to their online competitors.
Compete, which helps bookstores buy and sell books online and price them competitively (for buying from/selling to students).
Collect, which helps them get their book selections in from faculty.
Each of these are part of the ecosystem of college textbooks and we've really helped turn struggling bookstores around in the face of, e.g., Amazon.
We're the indie game developers behind the world's bestselling smartphone fitness game, Zombies, Run!, which has over 900,000 players. We've also created the NHS' first smartphone game, The Walk, which was Editor's Choice on the App Store in the US and UK in December. The games we make literally improve people's lives!
We are looking for a senior iOS developer with experience in creating innovative iOS apps or games. Our games combine innovative real-world gameplay with captivating stories and design. We want to find someone who can help us improve our existing games and develop new games that are just as revolutionary and innovative as Zombies, Run!
Responsibilities
* Developing new features for our existing games, and maintaining them to take advantage of new OS-level features (we're currently targeting iOS7 for all our apps)
* Developing and designing new apps and games
* Working with our web developer to ensure good communication with our online services
* Working with our Android developers (currently, all of our games are available on both platforms)
Requirements
* At least two years of experience developing iOS applications.
* An enthusiasm for quickly learning and applying new and emerging technologies.
* An interest in games and game design, and a tenacious approach to problem-solving.
We're a small, bootstrapped, profitable company that makes people's lives better. Position is full-time and based in London.

Hello, HN. Afoundria is hiring a Front-End Developer in Austin, Texas. Afoundria is a healthcare startup headquartered in Austin, Texas with three product lines:
Emergency department nurse and physician charting, post-acute charting and transition of care, data services (mostly moving large blocks of HL7 data from one party to another)
We have offices in Austin and Dallas and the usual startup perks like daily ping-pong; bowling, roller skating, and TopGolf outings; and a fridge full of beer. Many of us have worked together 10-15 years or longer because we get a kick out of solving healthcare problems for our users.
We don't ask trick interview questions or ask you to solve ridiculous puzzles. If you can get along well with a team and write solid code, we'd love to talk to you. Also, we value diversity. Everyone is encouraged to apply if you meet the requirements.
Technology Stack: CentOS/Apache/MySQL/Tomcat, Groovy/Grails web framework, HTML/CSS/JS front end We often have personal relationships with our users because we -like- to do business that way, but also it's the only way to really find out what they need, and then turn that knowledge into useful features. You will have a lot of autonomy to come up with new ideas and design/develop them, and the code you write will go into production immediately.
Summary: Front-end developer located in Austin, proficient in "the way" of Javascript, good enough at HTML and CSS to create fully functional layouts from mockups, immediate start date, salary range is $85k-$100k/year
Submit resume and anything else of interest to jobs@afoundria.com. We'd love to see your GitHub, HN, or Reddit profile, etc.
