BuildZoom simplifies remodeling and construction.

We're looking for someone that will jump at the opportunity to take ownership of product features that drive traction, which will be used by tens of thousands of users each day.

Here are some examples of problems you’ll help us solve: Build a clean and simple user interface that sifts through millions of transactional records, allows consumers to see the current remodeling activity in their neighborhood and engage with the contractors performing the work.

Implement payment processing by integrating with third party providers and implementing a scheduling and tracking system to maintain transaction records.

Enhance the accuracy of our machine learning classifier, which infers what types of work contractors specialize in based off their transactional histories.

Apply our pricing analysis to help consumers understand the cost and value associated with their home improvement investments.

Our ideal candidate will have:

* Extensive experience with medium-to-large scale RoR deployments

* Strong fundamentals: OOP and application architecture

Software Engineers - Gametime - San Francisco, CA

Gametime connects communities through frictionless and beautiful mobile applications. We believe communities get closer when people get off the couch and have fun at a live event. Backed by Accel Partners as well as team owners Jeff Mallett (Giants / Whitecaps / Derby FC), Vivek Ranadive (Kings), and David Blitzer (76ers / Devils) we've raised $13mm (including $8mm in May of 2015).

Built for iOS and Android, Gametime makes getting into the game as amazing as being there. Inside gametime.co/app we provide high-res panoramic photos from every section, curated listings as we decrease a universe of 5000 options to the 50 best with ultra fast two-tap checkout and no printing . With our mobile-only approach, we've reduced a 30-minute process to 30 seconds. This approach has led to fast (600% annual) and viral (92% of new purchasers hear about the app from friends) growth.

New Gametimers join for the community of high-performers (known as the Gameteam). New employees also love the environment as we aspire to build the best place to work in SF ...

We offer market rate salary (even though we’re small) and real equity (meaning you come out way ahead). Everyone here does meaningful work. You won't end up on the "login button team" here, you will be a big part of the most important conversations on the engineering team. There’s free catered lunch Monday through Friday! Who said there was no such thing? We offer Blue Cross / Blue Shield via Zenefits and dental insurance. We also have monthly $75 cell phone reimbursement and $80 commuter benefit. We love going to games and we're right by AT&T Park so (if you're into it) you'll hit a bunch of them with us. Go Giants!

In summary, we're fast, well-funded and growing quickly. It's an exciting time to join the Gameteam.

[Front Row Education (San Francisco, CA) www.frontrowed.com]

Foundational Systems Engineer with DevOps focus to join fast-growing education startup that changes how over a million young students learn math.

Our mission is important to us, and we want it to be important to you as well: over a million K-8 students learn math using Front Row every month. Our early results show students improve twice as much while using Front Row than their peers who aren’t using the program.

You’ll be one of the first engineers on the team, which means you’ll have an immense impact on our company, product, and culture; you’ll have a ton of autonomy and responsibility; you’ll have equity to match the weight of this role. If you're looking for an opportunity to both grow and do meaningful work, surrounded and supported by like-minded professionals, this is THE place for you.

Front Row is one of the very few organizations in the world that use Haskell in production for most of their systems and is an active member of the Haskell community, including the Commercial Haskell Special Interest Group.

- Be able to work quickly and without handholding or supervision. You will have great autonomy. We're a small team and everybody easily pulls twice their weight

- You're morbidly well-organized, love documenting and obsess over continuously improving existing processes

- Relentlessly automate ALL the things: this is not a sysadmin position, this is developer position that removes the need for most system administration

- You're not religious about any technologies, tools or approaches: the landscape of devops changes every day, new tools emerge, new techniques become trendy. A great devops engineer stays up to date with the emergent technologies, but is committed to using the right tool for the job, whether that's an allen wrench or an immutable cluster

- You must care about being great at what you do. Front Row engineers are craftsmen who take pride in their work

- Must thrive on both technical breadth and depth. As a Front Row Systems Engineer, you will be taking care of setting up, maintaining and scaling a wide variety critical supporting infrastructure that makes running our applications possible and pleasant

- Experience working with cloud APIs, configuration management, deployment

- Experience running, maintaining and scaling RDBMS - we're heavy Postgres users and deal with a lot of critical data

- You love sharing your knowledge and teaching others about systems engineering and devops. Front Row has a very active culture of sharing of knowledge and best practices. As our first Systems Engineer, you will be setting much of the technical culture for the organization.

Elastic, the company behind Elasticsearch, is hiring for a lot of positions: https://www.elastic.co/about/careers I'm on the team behind Found.no, which is a hosted Elasticsearch service. We're hiring engineers with backgrounds in design and operations of distributed systems: https://www.found.no/jobs/ We're distributed/remote.

Hey brasetvik, what can I do to make my application stand out? I was excited to see that Elastic was hiring in an area of interest to me, so I threw my hat into the ring. I worry that I'm going to get dropped into a large pile and skimmed over- is there anything proactive I can do to prevent this?
