Anonymous review:

I tried this process because it sounded pretty fun and unique.

One warning I have for anyone interested is that there are some big waiting times involved. I'll share my timeline. Some of the lags were on my end, but I was assured I had as much time as I needed.

  - Day 0-6 - First contact
  - Day 7 - Assigned work sample
  - Day 21 - Submitted work sample
  - Day 62 - Work sample results returned
  - Day 72 - Paid work day
  - Day 79 - Work day report completed
  - Day 85 - Final decision

Overall there were 21 days where they were waiting on me and 47 days where I was waiting on them. This seemed to me like a lot of waiting but maybe it is normal.

I probably worked 15 hours on the work sample, 8 hours on the work day, and 8 more hours putting together the report after the work day.

Backend Engineer with a love of Python: DENVER ONSITE $100k-$150k and equity (based on experience)

Us: n.io is an innovative software company. We believe there should be seamless connection of any device, any measurable and any signal--unrestricted in volume, real-time and intelligent. The n.io platform empowers that vision. We also believe in self-deprecating humor, the power of caffeine, BBQ lunches, and comfortable pants.

Our Interviews: We start by getting to know candidates first, a quick video chat to open the lines of communication and get YOUR questions answered. Our second step is a technical discussion, where we can find out about your skills and you can ask us about our stack and various processes. Then it's up the ladder for final steps.

You: If developing transformative software is your thing, this is the job for you. The n.io platform itself operates as a backend but our engineers work across the entire stack. Responsibilities will include writing code to support the integration of the n.io platform as well as systems that rely on it, diagnosing issues both internally and externally, and architecting complex systems for a unique portfolio of projects that work in true real-time. Current projects include industrial internet and precision agriculture.

For more information, or to apply, email Andrew Joynt at ajoynt (at)n(dot)io or just check out https://n.io!

Hipmunk

San Francisco, CA - close to Caltrain Onsite preferred though we've hired remote folks before. Visa transfers ok and we support new green cards. New visas only if straightforward (like Canada).

Experienced backend, devops, and data engineering are our priorities right now. Always looking for fullstack, frontend, iOS, Android.

http://www.hipmunk.com/jobs

Travel is a huge industry and we're shaking it up. We consistently lead the pack in every measure of customer love (net promoter scores, app store ratings, etc) because delightful customer experiences in travel are why we exist. We value the same high standards in our code and people. We value learning and growth (and not having bored people) and invest regular time in doing so. For example, every other Friday is open time for you to spend time becoming a better engineer.

Our stack is built on PostgreSQL, Redis, Python, nginx, HBase, Coffeescript, React.js, es6, Swift, and a few more things. Steve, our cofounder, built Reddit with many of those and they've proven solid throughout the years.

We hire diverse, well-rounded, communicative people we can envision being friends with and trusting. Our projects tend to be 1-2 engineers max so trust and accountability is required for us to work. Also helps us keep processes & overhead low. We appreciate that we've built a reasonably-sized, high-powered team so far (55 employees incl. 30 engineers) and are always striving to be the best place to work for them. We're looking for folks that love all of the above and will help us keep our standards high. You can go to www.hipmunk.com/jobs if you're interested!
