Ask HN: Who is hiring? (January 2016)

London, UK - Pusher - https://pusher.com/ - Full time - On Site Only

The current Pusher product is a multi-tenant distributed system that allows our customers to deliver billions of messages to their connected users. We operate at massive scale, and this informs and affects everything we do.

Our engineering team is based in London. We are looking for engineers who will thrive in a challenging environment, working on interesting problems. Our team is small but growing, and we value people who can contribute not only individually, but in the context of the team. Our engineering team is also heavily involved in operations, so you need to know how to deploy, monitor and maintain a large production system. We wrote our code in Ruby (Main legacy language) and Haskell.

Our software stack is built around Linux, Ruby, Haskell, nodeJS, Redis, MySQL, Git and Go.

We are currently looking for: * Platform Engineers to continue improving and scaling our core real-time infrastructure. More info on this position at https://pusher.workable.com/jobs/52789. * Product Engineer (Full Stack) to work on our new customers facing features and improve our libraries https://pusher.workable.com/jobs/87044 * Mobile Product Engineer to help us build a great experience for mobile developers. https://pusher.workable.com/jobs/114508

Init.ai | New York (NYC), San Francisco (SF), Boulder | Full-Time

Init.ai is a platform that makes building conversational apps simple for developers. We handle integration with messaging services, natural language processing, and business logic, including integration with third-party APIs.

We are hiring for two positions:

Backend engineer (or full stack)

* Help build and develop our platform and APIs

* It's a developer facing product, so consistency and reliability are critical. Build something you'd want to use.

* Modern tech stack: Go, JavaScript, Postgres, DynamoDB for primary API; Go, Torch, Java, and Clojure for NLP components

* Help figure out how to scale training and deployment of customer-specific machine learning models while maintaining high performance and reliability

* Work closely with the client tools team to help develop CLI tools and a management console (in React)

Machine learning engineer

* This role is part research, part engineering. We want to push the boundaries of the NLP field while actively deploying those findings into the world

* Research, develop, extend, and productize our NLP and machine learning systems, based on cutting edge techniques

* Would be responsible for developing and improving models and systems, as well helping to deploy the models in a scalable and efficient manner

* Potential to publish significant findings if developed

Collective Health, ( http://collectivehealth.com/ ), San Mateo, CA (Full time, ONSITE only, VISA-depends, see below)

We're replacing health insurance with a system that members love. Using our SW, platform and services, an employer can pay doctors directly, saving a ton of money and making the employee experience amazing (with the testimonials to back it up).

The company is well-funded, ~two years old and growing very rapidly with massive sales traction (250x this past year). We punch well above our weight-class with experienced founders, 130+ team members (~ one quarter is engineering), and paying customers.

Our tech stack is a mix of Go and Java components with Angular on the front end. We use a custom service bus to tie our SOA together, microservices style. We love Docker, CoreOS, postgres, automated testing, and continuos integration.

As a company, we're strong believers in transparency, trust and balance. As an engineering team, we believe good code is easy to read and should have a short "time to understanding". We expect all of our engineers to continually teach as well as learn. We also believe that everyone should write good code, yet balance that against the need to ship.

We've got a ton of interesting problems to solve around distributed systems, data analytics and predictions, complex data modeling, ultra high-availability, security, privacy and more. We're currently looking for experienced SW engineers up and down the stack, back end, infrastructure, data, dev ops, test, generalist, etc. Our biggest short term needs are AngularJS FE, SW Engineers in Test (you will be writing cluster level end2end tests, not unit tests), and skilled IT desktop support.

If you are non-technical, but are interested in experiencing a hyper-growth startup, we also are hiring for JIRA workflow automation, operations, business development and other roles as well. If you care about such things, we were recently flattered/embarrassed to be highlighted as one of fifty potential next unicorns by the nytimes: http://nyti.ms/1JLKaCT

We're super proud of the company mission, engineering culture and tech stack we've put together and would love a chance to explain it all in detail!

*VISA minutiae: We can transfer H1Bs but not sponsor them. We can sponsor TN visas in most cases. If you have another existing visa, we can probably transfer it.

I'd still encourage you to get in touch -- right now we're hiring specifically for Dallas, but we're definitely going to keep expanding the Austin mothership, and we're always on the hunt for awesome people.

Join a small team of talented developers, capable researchers, and former finance people that saw the light. Our stack: JS, React, Python, pandas, Flask, C++, KDB, q Your workstation: .5 TB RAM, plus a gabajillion cores (we each have one)
