Ask HN: Who is hiring? (January 2018)

San Francisco, CA | REMOTE OK in the US | US based only | Experienced Full Stack Rails Developer | Stitchfix | Full-time

Hello, we're continuing to do a ton of hiring at Stitchfix. I'm responsible for a small team working on cross functional projects; Last year we worked on expanding Stitchfix to support Mens clothing, and then we also built the engine that drives stitchfix's Style Profile and made it more flexible. We work closely with the Data Science team, and our goal is always to serve our customers better using the information they provided while not being creepy :-)

Stitchfix is a clothing / style personalization service. Search Instagram for #stitchfix, which will tell you a whole lot about us, how much our customers love us and you'll get an idea of our business. Come back when you're done.

There are a slew of other super interesting open dev roles across stitchfix, including in:

  * the Consumer Facing team
  * the Warehouse Tools teams
  * the Styling Tools teams
  * (and many others)

You can reach out directly to me (gal at stitchfix.com) - I'm a Principal Engineer and a hiring manager at Stitchfix. Here is a job posting roughly covering the role I'm hiring for: https://www.stitchfix.com/careers?gh_jid=455296&gh_src=r8m5v

Stitch Fix's "Multithreaded" Tech Jobs blog & site (http://technology.stitchfix.com) has a lot more about the team and other positions (we’re also hiring iOS, DevOps, and UX)

Main role: - Evolve our Android app from MVP to world-class app - Make sure that the UX is perfect and our users have a seamless experience while riding our bikes - Ensure that the app will work in several regions and languages (Pony Bikes is currently operating in Oxford, UK and Angers, France)

The ideal candidate: - Excellent communication skills (English) - Strong self management skills - Previous experience with RxKotlin is a huge plus - Shipped a world-class app before (preferably more than once) - Must be capable of owning the Android development. You'll be part of a small team where every contribution counts, and you're encouraged and expected to deliver great value to our loving customers
