Ask HN: Who is hiring? (January 2022)

SerpApi is the API to scrape and parse search engine results. We deeply support Google, Google Maps, Google Images, Bing, Baidu, and a lot more.

Our current stack is Ruby, Rails, MongoDB, and React.JS. We are looking for a senior web designer, a senior Front End Engineer, and a Senior Backend Engineer. For the senior web designer position, we're looking for someone to give us a strong visual direction and experience in CSS, JS, or React are definitely plusses but not required.

We have an awesome work environment: We are a remote first company. We do continuous integration, continuous deployments, code reviews, code pairings, profit sharing, and most of communication is async via GitHub. We value super strongly transparency, do open books, have a public roadmap, and contribute to the EFF.

Fabrik is a publishing platform that leverages our proprietary CMS and Ad Ops expertise to manage publishers' engineering and revenue operations. Full Stack Engineers at Fabrik are responsible for the core product platform: from front-end UI and testing, to APIs and database operations. Full Stack Engineers work in close partnership with designers, product managers, and customers to build out new product offerings and tooling across the platform.

Responsibilities

Develop the core Fabrik CMS for writers, and sites for publishers. Be willing to jump into any part of the stack: API, Front end CMS, Sites templates, CDN, etc. Scale the platform by tuning Postgres queries, developing caching solutions, and building tooling for monitoring. We work with JavaScript (Node, Express, React) and Postgres. It is not necessary to know Node and React already, but expertise in web architecture is necessary.

Requirements

At least 5 years of software engineering experience. Can contribute across the full stack. Independent and autonomous. We are a small team split across several timezones. We don’t micromanage and expect that everybody holds their own. Clear and consistent communication. The team needs to understand where you are with your work and be informed on how to carry on from where you’ve left off.

ProcedureFlow is not your typical flowchart tool. We took the good parts, like the visual map, and fixed all the bad things:

  • The "editing" experience is secondary. Viewing and navigating the flows is the priority.
  • We democratize your company's procedures. The flows are meant to be used and improved by everyone at your company.
  • We only have so many shapes that can be added. You don't just drag/drop a "rectangle" and make it purple. You add an "action" shape that has semantics.
  • We recommend making smaller flows and linking them together rather than one big flowchart understood by a few people.

We offer:

  • Competitive salary
  • Autonomous remote work and working with a great team.
  • Stock options signing bonus. Topped off based on individual/company performance and each funding round.
  • Vacation: 3 weeks to start. We're very flexible with additional time off (errands, family time, appointments, etc).
  • RRSP matching up to 4%.
  • Good health coverage.
  • Good work life balance. We don’t crunch or work regular overtime – deadlines are owned by us. Rare overtime like after hours maintenance means compensated time off.
  • An opportunity to get in on the ground floor of a fast growing Canadian startup. You’ll be very key to our success -- helping us grow the team into a well-oiled machine. Being an early employee means you have the possibility to grow into larger roles as the company grows (engineering IC, management, specialization, etc).
