Pixlee | San Francisco, Toronto | Full Time | ONSITE Pixlee is revolutionizing the relationship between people and brands. We help companies leverage customer photos/videos from social media to improve marketing.

We work with over 100+ customers, including top brands such as Converse, Kenneth Cole, UGG Australia, Mattel, Charlotte Russe, Marriott Hotels, and AMC Theatres, to drive higher online conversion, increase performance of owned media, and create a more authentic brand experience. A graduate of the Stanford StartX accelerator, Pixlee is an Andreessen Horowitz and XSeed Capital portfolio company. As a rapidly growing startup, we are constantly looking for talented people to join the Pixlee team and to help us revolutionize the intersection of big data and social media. At Pixlee we work hard, love to learn, and value teamwork and humility. We’ve got a big vision and we’re looking for game changers to join our team.

We look for talented, high-potential individuals who aren’t jerks. Our proposition to them is simple: Pixlee offers a unique opportunity to thrive and grow rapidly in a small-team startup environment operating at big-company scale. Our customers are some of the largest brands in the world and everything you do here affects millions of consumers.

We believe in using the right technology for the task, and we use a mix of rails, backbone, python, scala, elasticsearch, and postgres.

For me, I've really felt that I've been able to really grow very rapidly, and also been given the autonomy to make many decisions you can't make at a much larger startup. Its a very tight knit group, and we like to have fun.

What we're looking for: - Software Engineer (SF): https://www.pixlee.com/careers?gh_jid=86332 - Software Engineer (Toronto): https://www.pixlee.com/careers?gh_jid=221012 - Frontend Engineer (SF): https://www.pixlee.com/careers?gh_jid=182363 - Frontend Engineer (Toronto): https://www.pixlee.com/careers?gh_jid=221013 - Other: http://www.pixlee.com/careers

GearLaunch | San Francisco, CA | Developers, Developers, Developers | Full Time | ONSITE

GearLaunch is a one-stop shop that provides everything businesses need to sell custom branded merchandise, from an online storefront to production, fulfillment, and customer service.

Our tech stack is "agile Java" with as much functional style as the language allows, and AngularJS with ES6 on the frontend. We're built on Google App Engine and embrace a NoOps philosophy - we spend every day building features for our customers instead of maintaining systems. The two technical cofounders (I'm one of them) are former Pivots and we've embraced much of Pivotal Labs' philosophy, including TDD and pair programing.

Our interview process is a 30 minute skype call followed by a 2-hour pair programming session with me in our downtown SF office, and I'll tell you immediately whether or not you will be getting an offer. We have all the traditional employee perks including medical, dental, take-what-you-need vacation. Reach out to me 'jeff' at the expected domain or apply here: https://gearlaunch.workable.com/jobs/245314

Thanks!

Amazon Web Services | Seattle, WA | Fulltime | ONSITE

I am looking for a software development manager to help grow the EC2 Container Registry (ECR) team and drive the development of our next tranche of features and potentially other services related to container image (and layer) management and delivery. My ideal candidate is someone with experience managing/operating a service, but candidates with 2-3 years experience shipping customer facing features, and building/growing teams are also welcome to apply.

The ECR team is part of the broader Container Services team, which currently also builds and operates the EC2 Container Service (ECS). We excel at building highly scalable control planes, pay a lot of attention to resilience, and get to use some of the coolest tech that we've built at AWS over the past several years. The ECR team also requires you to get on the good side of Butters, the team mascot (one of the dogs in our org).

My contact info is in my HN profile.
