Ask HN: Who is hiring? (September 2024)

And if not, what's the best thing to put here?

Tulip is transforming manufacturing. Our customers use Tulip to create apps without code and to connect their apps to machines, sensors and smart tools. Each process is different, and every shop floor is filled with exciting challenges, technological and otherwise. Tulip’s no-code app editor lets customers build custom apps to their specific use case. You’ll contribute to software used to make gigantic CNC mills, high-end pharmaceuticals, jewelry, PCBs, and more.

Our team prizes intellectual generosity, collaboration, and deep ownership. We appreciate teammates from different backgrounds and experiences, and in particular we are looking to bring folks in on:

Head of Product Management: lead the Tulip Product Management team and work across product and engineering to identify areas of growth and scale for our existing products and beyond

Analytics, Team Lead: lead and grow a team owning the interface used to collect, analyze and build data dashboards with high fidelity and contextualization

Build, UI Lead: translate design systems to code, partnering with both sides of the product-engineering coin to steer our frontend guild

DevX, Engineer: make it easier for developers to write better code faster, by creating the tooling they wish they had time to write

Regardless, yes, it’s bullshit and harmful to equity in hiring. I’m certainly not defending it.

Since we’re on a site run by YC, I should note that a version of the same “record a video” requirement is part of the standard YC application, with some of the same downsides for equitable venture capital investment decisions. Of course, a big difference is that venture capital investment decisions are entirely outside of the scope of discrimination law as currently enacted everywhere I know of, despite being very close in effect and power dynamics to hiring decisions in an employment context.

Raylu’s engineering team of 5 people is looking to expand and hire an AI Engineer. We are looking for an engineer who is comfortable working with complex LLM systems, excel’s at experiment and evaluation driven development, and has a passion for solving hard open ended problems.

Requirements * - Experience with LLM systems. You are an expert in sophisticated RAG, chains and agentic systems (Langchain based), and fine-tuning. - Experience working in a production python back-end. We build and manage our own systems and services, and therefore value scalability and reliability - we need an AI engineer who is a capable back-end engineer - You have a ruthless work ethic and refuse to give up on excellence. A lot of this job is solving open-ended problems that require many failed experiments before a solution solves the problem - and we need engineers thick-skinned enough for that process. - We often hit problems that genuinely require reading research papers in order to design new experiments to run. A formal background in ML is preferable, but are open minded to an AI engineer with a SWE background.

Company Culture and Values:

- We are a small team of 6 all based out of NYC working out of our office in midtown Manhattan everyday (with WFH flexibility when needed). - Everyday we tackle new unsolved challenges - We work hard. We don’t believe in hustle culture, toxic workplaces, and sacrificing health. , but startups are really hard - so we put in the time and effort needed to succeed. - We are courageous yet humble with our work.
