360Player | Senior Backend, Senior Frontend | Stockholm, Sweden | Full time | ONSITE

360Player is an app for soccer players, coaches, teams, clubs and everyone else involved in a player’s career. We provide professional tools and data to all clubs, involve the players more in their careers and teams, and ensure communication is centralised. Our long term goal is to reduce selection of players based on physical attributes in young ages, since kids born early in the year or are early in puberty have an advantage not present in adults.

We’re working in Go in the backend, and React + Cordova for the app.

Haiku (YC W18) | Senior Engineer, Generalist | REMOTE (Based in San Francisco, CA)

Haiku's mission is to "revolutionize software creation by unifying design and code." We're an early-stage but well funded funded team of 6. Are you #7?

We're seeking a language-agnostic[1] senior developer who shares our passion for "the holy grail" of unifying design & code. We approach this through a commercial lens, but have lofty ambitions that require some invention + innovation. You'll be working on compilers, cross-platform native tech (Android expertise a huge plus!,) UIs, rendering performance, our server stack, and everything in between.

We're an adventurous, tight-knit team. We offer excellent comp (with an option for no-BS significant equity ownership,) medical/dental benefits, and unique perks like remote-team summits. Last year we all met up in Patagonia.[2]

Reach out to jobs@haikuforteams.com with your resume — we're being very picky with this hire, but we'd love to chat if you're up to the challenge.

[1] Our stack includes TypeScript + the depths of the `tsc` compiler (e.g. AST work); Swift + Objective-C; Kotlin + Java; Web/high-performance rendering work; Typescript + Vue UIs, Typescript/Javascript + React UIs; Go + SQL for servers.

Disney Streaming Services | Full-time | REMOTE (US ONLY) + ONSITE | Multiple Locations(SF, LA, NYC, Amsterdam, Manchester) Awarded one of the most innovative companies by FastCompany, Disney is working on a number of exciting tech initiatives. I work at Disney Streaming Services which is building the new Disney+. There's openings in frontend, backend, mobile (iOS and Android), data science, analytics, project managem…

I don't see anything in the job postings about remote being available. Is it worth it to apply if we don't live in the city the posting is for and not inclined to relocate?

I do not speak for the company, but interviewed there, and they had remote workers on the interview panel.

I worked with DataCamp through their course authors program and found it to be a poorly run organization. They maintain a publicly accessible "wishlist" of courses that they claim to want to develop. Think twice before putting your course proposal forward: they'll want free labor from you in a form of course outlines and code samples. After you send these over to them, they'll tell you that they are no longer interested in working with you on the course from the wishlist and ask for other outlines and samples. Courtesy requests that are a norm in the industry, like taking a course off the wishlist while you are working on it are ignored.

Root | Columbus, OH | Full-time | Onsite / remote | $80k-$150k | https://root.engineering/

Root is an auto insurance carrier, like GEICO and Progressive. We use data science to identify and insure good drivers, reducing insurance premiums for good drivers significantly as a result.

We're a startup — we're 500+ people who have been working on this since March 2015. We've built an iOS and Android app that gathers data on how well people drive. We use that to set insurance prices. To build the best possible product and user experience, we went through the arduous process of starting an insurance carrier from scratch.

We're focused on becoming a national insurance carrier and are now live in 24 states.

We've raised $180M in Venture Capital since 2015 and we're scaling rapidly. To do that, we're looking to bring on more exceptionally talented engineers. Whether you're just getting started out in software development or someone who is looking to lend your experience in leadership to a rapidly scaling engineering organization, we plan on doubling our engineering team in the next year alone. So, you're in luck.

Our tech stack involves Ruby / Rails and Javascript / React Native. However, we're not only looking for people with experience in our stack but rather we're looking for experienced technologists with sound engineering fundamentals using any technology.

Email us at enghiring@joinroot.com to apply and we'll respond to you promptly.

Waldo Photos | Senior Software Engineers, Intern/Junior Engineer | Full-Time | Austin, TX or REMOTE (Globally)

Waldo Photos (https://waldophotos.com/) is a photo finding platform utilizing facial and object recognition to empower consumers to toss their selfie sticks, put their phones back in their pockets and live in the moment. Waldo is the only platform that removes all of the friction in getting photos of you taken by others and creates new opportunities for photographers to market and sell their photos. Users can enjoy life’s most precious events and automatically receive images taken of them right on their phones or share images of others they’ve taken without having to lift a finger – whether between friends and family or a professional photographer.

We are enjoying tremendous growth in summer camps and private schools, where photos are already a common way to connect and share experiences of the children with their parents, but locating the photos of your child or loved one becomes a job itself. And while camps and schools have been the first areas that Waldo has gained traction, the challenge of matching and delivery of the photos you care about is luckily not limited to just summer camps and schools which is further driving our product and market growth.

To meet this demand we are hiring immediately(and through the year) for:

* Senior Backend Engineers : https://waldo-photos.workable.com/j/BE760CF400

* Senior Frontend Engineers : https://waldo-photos.workable.com/j/7038D86015

* Junior/Intern Software Engineer (must be in Austin, TX) : We don't have a public posting for this right now, but if you have interest please reach out to me directly. This position will be doing production troubleshooting with GraphQL, SQL, Logs, etc as well as building internal tools and automated testing based on your production experience

Our tech stack consists of predominantly of Python, Node, React, Redux, GraphQL, RabbitMQ, Postgres, Docker/Kubernetes and AWS.

Our team is globally distributed, remote first, and highly collaborative where we are united in the vision of delivering quality as well as joy to our users. As part of the team you can expect:

   * Autonomy, voice and empowerment to make an impact
   * Market Competitive Salary
   * Stock options
   * Unlimited vacation policy
   * Fully remote work environment with a flexible work schedule
   * Startup growth and energy

If this interests you or you have questions, please reach out to me via email using the address in my profile and I will be happy to answer anything. Or you can apply directly via the links above or just send me your resume and which job you are interested in.

You mentioned Amsterdam as a location, but I didn't find anything in the "Disney Streaming Services" listings.

Am I missing something?
