NoRedInk | Full-Stack Engineers, Site Reliability Engineers, and Engineering Managers | San Francisco, CA | REMOTE Pacific Time (PST) to Central European Time (CET)

We’re an ed-tech company on a mission to help all students become strong writers! Our team may be small, but NoRedInk is used by 1 in 2 school districts in the US, and students have answered over 5 billion questions on our platform.

We’re a group of friendly people who listen to and learn from each other. We discuss past mistakes openly so we can adapt our processes to the challenges that come with progress. Puns flow freely across our San Francisco office as well as on Slack, and we have remote engineers spanning six different time zones.

Our engineering team [1] prides itself on code quality and innovation. We use the cutting-edge Elm programming language for all our new front-end code, and have been migrating legacy React code to Elm as well. Our back-end is primarily Ruby on Rails, although we are working to split off smaller services as we scale to keep up with our traffic. You can read about our experiences with these technologies on our team blog! [2]

In addition to spending work hours open-sourcing useful libraries we develop [3], we also invest financially in open source. We hired the creator of Elm, Evan Czaplicki, to develop Elm full time. [4] Evan discusses his plans for the language with the team every week, periodically pairs with other engineers on Elm, and cracks up members of the sales team with his lunchtime jokes.

We use Amazon AWS for our infrastructure and automate all of our deployments using Chef and OpsWorks. We write a lot of tests, and use Jenkins for continuous integration. Our process for new features begins with our product team and in-house visual designer, continues with a GitHub pull request from a feature branch into master, and ends with our in-house QA specialist trying to break it before it reaches production.

We’re looking for engineers who want to work on a mission that makes a difference and who are the type of collaborators that value kindness and open-mindedness, over convincing the group they’re right.

You can learn more about what to expect through blog posts about our interview process [5] and on-boarding experience [6].

wehkamp | Cloud Engineer, DevOps Engineer, Software Developer and more! | Zwolle, Netherlands | ONSITE | Full-time

Wehkamp is one of the biggest and oldest players in the online retail market in The Netherlands and with a large and varied catalog we serve millions of customers.

Our microservices and microsites are hosted using a variety of technology including Mesos, Lambda functions and systems like Kafka and Spark. We have been running containers in production for over 3 years, with orchestration systems like Terraform and Ansible to programmatically create our infrastructure. Most of our stack is built using Linux as a base OS with runtimes like nodejs, jvm and .NETCore CLR to run our workloads. You can find a lot of additional variations in operating systems and languages where and when it makes sense, like some cases where Windows, IIS and .NET was the best fit. We often automate ops workloads and event reactors in a number of our favourite utility languages like python and shell scripts, and Prometheus metrics are everywhere - something the SRE team is extremely happy with. Note: We have a lot of English-speaking colleagues at Wehkamp, so don't worry if you're not a proficient in Dutch.

We're looking for passionate engineers who feel at home around microservices, deployment pipelines, immutability and infrastructure-as-code and who feel comfortable talking Python and Bash. Or ones that simply want to join us on our adventures :)
