Nava | Washington DC* | Experienced full-stack developers/devops/product manager/operations | On-site - Full Time

I'm part of a small team of engineers from Silicon Valley that came out to DC last year to help fix Healthcare.gov. It turns out there’s a lot more to fix. And it’s surprising how much can be fixed by a small group of resourceful people with a Silicon Valley mindset, deep technical experience, and the willingness to work closely with dedicated civil servants in government.

Our revamped Healthcare.gov application has been used by millions, converts 35% better, and halves the completion time. The login system we rebuilt is about two orders of magnitude more reliable and two orders of magnitude less expensive; for example, it’s about $70M less per year to operate. We’re just getting started, and we’ve started Nava to help fix everything else. [0]

People die because the Veteran's Administration is months behind in processing claims. The Social Security Administration pays benefits to millions of deceased Americans. $80 billion is spent every year on federal IT contracting, and 96% of projects are deemed failures [1].

That’s not because there’s some conspiracy or because government is inherently incapable of doing it right. These are complicated legacy systems and processes, and there are very few people with modern tech industry experience who are aware of these problems and willing to help fix them. You can help change that.

Our team is 10 people (Stanford, Google, YC alums), and we plan to bring on a few people every month through 2015.

We’re looking for: - experienced full-stack engineers - experienced devops engineers - a product manager with a technical background - a hyper-resourceful operations person

We have a social mission (we just incorporated as a public benefit corporation (PBC) this week), but we pay market compensation (above market, for DC) and equity (above market).

If you'd like to build software and infrastructure that radically improves how our government serves people, we’d love to hear from you at jobs@navahq.com.

*Not in DC / able to relocate, but intrigued and in SF? Talk to us.

Bytemark (York, UK) is looking for an experienced web developer. We're seeking someone who is able to get things done from scratch, who can tell us about something they made the web and say "I made that!".

We need an engineer who is comfortable working at both the front- and back-end of a modern web application. You should be able to pick apart HTML, Javascript, the DOM, HTTP, SQL and a back-end framework or two. We use Ruby & Go, but particular languages aren't as important as a proven track record, and a desire to get projects delivered.

At Bytemark we build our own cloud hosting infrastructure, so the more you know about IP networking and operating systems, the better. We're also steeped in Free Software, its history and licenses, so any expertise there would put you in good company.

We have processes that work for our small team: we test automatically, but usually think we could do more. We use Git or Mercurial for revision control, Redmine to keep track of our bugs, and Jenkins for CI. We meet fortnightly rather than daily. We trust you to pick the right project from our development plan; we don't over-manage. In short, we have an evolving methodology and a wealth of experience — this means we can quickly and efficiently deliver new features for our customers. Join, and help us do more! We have our own data centre and cloud hosting platform (https://www.bigv.io/), and are looking for a web developer to join our engineering team.

Location: York, Manchester, remote considered for more experienced engineers.

Salary: £32500 to £48000

We are an equal opportunities employer - we don't even want to know your name or see your CV until the third round of interviews.

Therefore please apply through our anonymous recruitment process where you won't need to give your name to get an interview: https://careers.bytemark.co.uk/positions/4
