Ask HN: Who is hiring? (November 2016)

Sector Labs | Full-time | ONSITE | Cluj-Napoca, Romania | https://sectorlabs.ro/jobs

We're a small company with a nice office in the city center of Cluj-Napoca. We operate some of the biggest real-estate web portals in four countries in Asia. That might sound boring, but we deal with high traffic on multiple sites in different countries. We hire for programming skills not technology.

We're looking for people who enjoy programming and are not caught up in ideological wars about technology. Someone who is pragmatic enough to realise that life is too short not to use the right tool for the job. At the moment we're using a Python centric stack. But, tomorrow? Who knows?

We offer:

- The best and hoping to get the same in return: we chose a location in the heart of the city so you can have access to a bunch of good restaurants, we let you chose your hardware to work on, we buy top-of-the-line chairs from Herman Miller and Steelcase (your choice) and standing desks and will keep on trying to make the workplace better than our homes.

- Autonomy: you will choose the tools you want to use and get to make all the technical decisions as long as they make sense (that's for our architect to decide)

- Mastery: we will encourage and support you to learn as long as it takes so you can feel proud about your work (the nice side effect of this is having awesome products built by you)

Clever (YC S12) - San Francisco - onsite

Right now the market for educational software is a mess. It’s incredibly difficult for developers to get their products into schools, and it’s even harder for them to scale. School districts spend tons of money on learning applications, but they have no way of knowing if students are even using the apps they’re purchasing. Teachers know there’s great software out there, but relatively simple challenges like getting 30 students logged in at once make using it impossible.

At Clever, we’re working to change all that. We provide schools with a free API and single sign-on solution that makes using educational apps a breeze. We’ve grown fast: after four years, half of all schools in the US (65,000 schools) are using our platform. Our goals are much bigger than that, though. We want to be two things:

-a single place where schools can easily integrate, manage and analyze all the software they’re using, and

-a single identity that students can use to see everything they’ve learned across multiple apps.

We’re a team of 120 (40 engineers) based in downtown SF, and we’re looking for engineers who enjoy working in (or would enjoy learning) Go, Node and React. More generally, we want people who are sharp, adaptable, and passionate about improving the way education works for everyone. In particular, we’re looking for senior engineers and engineering managers: empathetic leaders who are excited about teaching, coaching and professional development.
