New York City - Moat

Moat is a growing analytics startup with products in two core areas:

1) Analytics

Moat Analytics analyzes content and advertisements for many of the most trafficked websites on the Internet. We gather terabytes of data a day and give customers metrics like ad viewability, attention and user engagement. This product has helped make these metrics a standard in the online ad industry.

2) Search

We index the Internet for online ads. This allows us to give advertisers, publishers and adtech companies an overview of the entire online ad ecosystem. This is hugely valuable information - our customers can see their competitors' ad campaigns, find prospects by seeing the clients of similar sites or see trends in the industry before anyone else. We have a free product, moat.com and a premium product, Moat Pro.

Both technical and non-technical openings can be found at jobs.moat.com

Years ago, your post [1] about a fractious, joyous workplace shaped me as I entered the workforce. How's Blue River compared to that? Any fistfights? [1] https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=141967

That's really funny! BR is nothing like that. Definitely the best balance I've ever had. Hope you are doing well in your endeavors.

Earlier quoted context omitted.

You're welcome. Maybe next month we'll see a salary range on all posts?

Most people, including myself, won't bother applying to a position unless the salary range is posted. There's no point to doing 2, 3, or even 4 interviews for a job that potentially pays less. Employers should learn that lesson.

For what it's worth, even though I haven't usually posted a salary range, it's something I try to clear up in the first call. It's true it's a waste of everybody's time otherwise.

We'll see if that posting the range this time will make any difference.

Glowforge - Seattle, WA - Full-time We're looking for (more) full-stack software engineers, back-end engineers, and front-end engineers. We could also use an amazing visual design and a mechanical engineer who has injection molding experience. We're well-funded and founded by three technical founders (one YC alumnus) with 7-9-figure exits. We're building an insanely challenging hardware+software product straight from…

That "nice to have" list in the software-dev position seems a little over-broad. "Genius with back-end server technologies" plus "familiar with hardware, like drivers" plus "some graphics experience" plus "Javascript, CSS, and HTML"...

It's hard to tell if it's a "whatever you have we can use" situation versus a "we want an ubermensch"-one.

Employers have a tendency to set salaries based on a combination of prior salaries and the market for the area unfortunately, which makes listing a hard number difficult.
