Ask HN: Who is hiring? (April 2019)

Dots is a mobile game design studio in NYC. Our games are beautifully executed from a graphic design, game design, and technological perspective. Our aim is to create experiences that do the little things extremely well. This results in a minimalist experience that has all the things you need and love, but none of the things you don't. At Dots this approach is present in all verticals, and engineering is no exception. This is particularly true of any backend engineering position.

We're looking for a Staff Engineer with 10+ years of experience who will join the backend team. Your strengths are as an individual contributor, but you are a natural leader and mentor as well. In this role, you will touch many parts of the business, from creation of game services to iteration on our custom continuous integrations system, to optimization of our experimentation system, to the creation of tools that aid all other parts of the company. We love to create tools and services that delight our players AND our colleagues alike. We do this by having a solid roadmap of features, products, and tools that have the largest impact, implementing the minimal "lovable" offering, and iterating on that offering as need and usage increases. By approaching our workload in this way, we pay attention to what matters most, and are able to create real, discernible impact immediately.

BitMEX is a cryptocurrency P2P trading platform offering unrivaled liquidity, security, and career opportunities. Our platform was developed by ex-bankers who were (and are) well-versed in computer science, financial engineering, and traditional finance. BitMEX launched in 2014 and subsequently has grown to become one of the most important marketplaces in the crypto space. n a pulldown menu of “What industry are you in?” it is certainly fair to label BitMEX a fintech company. But we feel like the word “fintech” doesn’t do justice to the uniqueness or grandeur of what we’re building.

Our ambition is to be the pre-eminent futures market for the major crypto-coins (including new ones, as they arrive on the scene), and BitMEX is already is one of the most significant price discovery mechanisms for Bitcoin, which is the most established digital currency so far.

And since Bitcoin may yet turn out to be a civilisation-saving monetary instrument — mankind’s ultimate store of value — history may come to reveal that BitMEX’s trading platform played a crucial role in saving the world. Or, it might just unfold that Bitcoin is a helluva lot of fun for awhile, before petering out or blowing up for some unforeseen reason. Both scenarios are logically imaginable (to use the phrase, from another context, of Hungarian philosopher Tibor Machan).

One way or another, Bitcoin is the defining technology of our current era. And if you work at BitMEX, you will have been part of Bitcoin in the most essential and extreme possible way.

Our top positions right now are: Mobile Engineer: https://grnh.se/ea3714a82 Kubernetes Engineer: https://grnh.se/57ca65ef2 API Engineer: https://grnh.se/499fb4222

If you are interested, please apply to the position you believe you are best suited for and we will get back to you ASAP.

Building models in spreadsheets is broken. Spreadsheet models break down when you alter them, modularize them, or add more collaborators. Analysts in banking, investment management, and operations have gotten by with spreadsheets but not without enormous time and effort spent hacking around their many limitations. Fact Labs has developed a more powerful, more collaborative modeling paradigm that is inspired by logic programming and applied ontology yet is still accessible to sophisticated but non-programmer analysts. We are a small, funded, early-stage team with significant domain experience with our target customers. The team previously worked together on a distributed search and data management startup and sold the company a few years back.

What we are looking for:

Fast, deliberate learners eager to translate concept into practice OR experienced hands ready to take significant design ownership

Strong computer science fundamentals, including algorithms and data structures

Experience with one of the following through professional, academic, or personal work:

- Database design and implementation (query processing/planning, database/storage engines)

- Language design and implementation (parsers, interpreters, virtual machines, compilers)

- Logic programming (Prolog, Datalog, SAT/SMT solvers, etc.)

- Optimization (constraint satisfaction, combinatorial optimization, linear programming, etc.)

Language experience: C / Rust

Self-starting attitude with strong communication skills (especially written)

The modeling experience we’re building is unlike anything out there. If you believe that spreadsheets are not the last word in end-user programming, reach out to us (stephen [at] fac.tt) and tell us a little about yourself (bio, resume, or LinkedIn). We’d love to hear from you and show you what we’ve been up to!
