Root | Columbus, OH | Full-time | Onsite | https://joinroot.com

Root is an auto insurance company, like GEICO and Progressive. We use data science to identify and insure good drivers, reducing insurance premiums for good drivers significantly as a result.

We're a startup — we're 25 people who have been working on this for 2 years. We've built iOS and Android apps that gather data on how well people drive. We use that to set insurance prices. To build the best possible product and user experience, we went through the arduous process of starting an insurance carrier from scratch.

We've raised $7M, and we're looking to bring on a couple more talented engineers. Tech stack involves Ruby / Rails and Javascript / React Native. Email us at jobs@joinroot.com

Cloudflare https://www.cloudflare.com/ | San Francisco, CA; London, UK; Singapore, SG; Urbana-Champaign, IL; Austin, TX; | VISA, ONSITE Cloudflare is building a better Internet. Our long term goal is to give every site the same performance, security, and reliability that major sites like Google and Facebook accomplish, without any specialized network hardware or complicated administration. We enhance millions of site…

I graduate this year with a lot of experience with web development. But I've spent a lot of hobby time with Rust and would like to head in the Systems direction. Do you know if London offers junior-ish systems positions?

I would apply to a position on our site and write a nice cover letter (our recruiters are great and actually read it).

If you have hobby projects you have built, mention them proudly and show them off (this is the way I was hired at cloudflare).

We don't do much with rust, though. Lots of Go.

Facebook | Solutions Engineer | Menlo Park, NYC, Seattle, Paris, Dublin, Dubai, Tel Aviv, Austin, Hong Kong | Onsite

Solutions Engineers at Facebook spend roughly half their time working with product engineering teams and writing production code. The other half of their time is spent working directly with partners to develop and execute their Facebook technology strategy.

We find that this setup is great for engineers that want to spend more time on the business side of things or have more people interaction while still being hands on with code.

This allows large advertisers to work directly with people at Facebook that have a knowledge of the ads codebase, and Solutions Engineers can implement great suggestions made by partners.

More about the role is available at https://www.facebook.com/careers/life/solutions-engineering-... .

Facebook | Solutions Engineering Manager | Menlo Park, NYC, Berlin | Onsite

We also have some great opportunities for engineering managers that would like to support a team in Menlo Park, NYC, or Berlin. You would support a distributed team, so some travel would be required.

If you have any questions, feel free to send me an email at rcheng@fb.com .

You can find the job listings at https://www.facebook.com/careers/teams/engineering/ , under “Solutions Engineering”.
