We're a small team and we're looking for talented designers and engineers (www.figma.com/careers) who are interested in tackling challenges in the creative tools space.

Example challenges: annotation system on top of documents for feedback, 2D boolean operations on paths, speed up zooming in the app using a tile quadtree, UI testing framework that simulates user actions, real-time events and data pushing across the site, zero-downtime deployments, search API for filtering user files.

Our tech stack: C++, Emscripten, Node, TypeScript, React, WebGL, Ruby, Sinatra

We're looking for DevOps Engineers to join both our customer-facing and our platforms & systems teams.

Attitude, flexibility, and the ability to learn new technologies quickly, are all more important than years of experience, however you'll need production experience with:

* Linux (either CentOS or Ubuntu)

* Configuration management (preferably Puppet, but a CM mindset is more important than the specific tool)

It'd be great if you also have experience operating AWS, but we'll help you learn this if not.

Full details at the URL above. Apply at https://the-scale-factory.workable.com/jobs/57204/candidates...

You must be resident in, and eligible to work in the UK.

Bangalore, India. Many Positions. Full time. I have taken up a role to build a payment network from scratch, out of Bangalore, India. It is funded by a big corporation, but will be arms-distance from their central business. It is a large, complex and fascinating problem to crack. The potential to bring banking to 600 million un/underbanked Indians is what excited me to work on this. We are looking to hire a good core…

Is there a name of this company or product?
