Ask HN: Who is hiring? (June 2019)

Bunch | Full-Stack Developer | New York | https://bunchenterprise.com/ | Onsite | Visa sponsorship available

Bunch builds video applications for the world’s largest companies. Millions of people communicate using our technology every day.

We are profitable, 100% employee owned, and developer driven. Our team leans heavily on React, and projects often include cutting edge server technologies - think time series databases, IPFS, and IoT - to offer features for a market with unique, large-scale challenges.

We focus on a stable of core products and often extend them to customer specifications. We have recently developed applications that use drones to assess disaster sites for insurance companies, distributed systems that move huge amounts of video data across high-security networks and web interfaces that give financial organizations real-time insight on what’s happening behind markets. We value elegance in implementation and invest heavily in the user experience.

The Bunch offices are in the East Village, one of NYC's most historic and exciting neighborhoods and near many public transportation options.

We believe people do their best work when challenged, excited, and well-rested. Excellence in execution forms the bedrock of our organization, and we understand that developers, like professional athletes, need collaboration and support to perform at the highest level.

commercetools | Software Engineer - Scala | On-Site | Full-Time | Berlin, Germany | https://commercetools.com/careers

We combine solving hard tech challenges you’d expect in a Silicon Valley startup with German work/life balance.

Our Backend-as-a-Service powers commerce in a wide range of industries, including automotive, robotics, gaming, on-demand printing, fashion and toys. We don’t run mom-and-pop stores - we excel for enterprise customers that need a commerce platform that is both customizable and yet highly scalable and reliable.

Some of the challenges you can help us with:

* Scaling a multi-tenant BaaS with heterogeneous traffic patterns. We continuously improve the performance of our code (written in Scala) as well as our persistence layer (MongoDB and ElasticSearch).

* Rework our data models where they aren’t suitable for our biggest enterprise customers. E.g. we need to support retailers with inventory across hundreds of stores.

* Multi-cloud, multi-region deployment: We offer our customers a choice between different cloud providers (including AWS and GCP) and regions.

* Adopt new technologies in our developer-facing products. E.g. we invest in GraphQL and CloudEvents, and participate in specification processes as well as Open Source projects.

We’re 150 people from 35 countries. We offer flexible work hours, home office and are parent friendly. I myself leave the office at 3:30pm three times a week to spend the afternoon with my son, and then spent another 2 hours working at home in the evening.

For the Scala job in our team see: https://commercetools-jobs.personio.de/job/41580 Feel free to message me if you have any questions at christoph DOT neijenhuis AT companyname DOT com (No recruiters, no agencies please.)

Venture Hacker | Blossom Capital | London, UK

If you're a developer who wants to get into venture capital, this is the gig for you.

At Blossom we're building a new kind of Series A VC for Europe. We’ve got a team with deep experience investing at and alongside the best venture capital funds in the world and operating experience from scaling unicorns globally (including Facebook, Deliveroo and Klarna).

Founders choose us because they want an investor who understands what it takes to build a startup from the inside. Whether it's structuring engineering teams (half of our investing partners have engineering backgrounds), hiring sales leaders or defining firm KPIs, we can offer practical support and expertise drawn from our own experiences in scaling companies.

This role is a mix of engineering and traditional venture capital work (market mapping, deal sourcing, due diligence etc.) - you don’t need to have any experience in venture capital, but understanding the startup ecosystem and fundraising will obviously be beneficial.
