The Beaker team develops a web UI and IDE for statistical modeling, data analysis, and visualization. Beaker is open source, based on a modern Angular/Bootstrap architecture, and most of the work is done on Github (https://github.com/twosigma/beaker-notebook) outside the corporate network, making for a comfortable and high-velocity developer experience. We are looking for a front-end engineer to lead implementation of taking this complex application to 2.0, including performance optimization, UX design, collaborative realtime editing, and our Electron version. We are also hiring full stack. Contact me directly with any questions or to apply (spot at draves dot org).

The creative agency I work for is hiring a jr or mid-level Frontend developer. We have a team of 6 engineers (frontend & backend) and create cutting edge stuff for high-profile clients in the food/beverage industry.

Stack: io.js (node.js), tons of JavaScript, Stylus, Jade, etc.

Super fun place to work (socially). More importantly, there's plenty of freedom and time to try out new tech. Quick turnover of projects mean you're less likely to get bored. Good place to grow your skills, as us seniors love to help!
