Causal | Generalist, Full-stack Engineer | London (UK) or REMOTE | https://causal.app

Causal is a clearer way to think and communicate with numbers. Our product is a number-crunching tool that's a bit like a spreadsheet and a bit like programming, and our vision is to be the de-facto way for anyone to work with numbers on a computer.

We're very early stage, but well-funded by some great investors across the US and Europe, and ready to make our first hires. Regardless of role, you'll play a big part in setting the product and company direction.

---

Roles:

1. Technical generalist

We're looking for a designer OR engineer who can also get involved in sales, operations, and growth. You'll ideally have worked professionally as a designer or engineer, and be interested in doing a bit of everything else. This would suit an ex- or future-founder.

2. Full-stack engineer

Our stack is React/Redux/TypeScript on the frontend, and Node/TypeScript on the backend. We're looking for an engineer who has experience with these technologies.

Our product primarily consists of a web UI on the frontend and a Monte-Carlo computation engine on the backend. The product needs a low floor and a high ceiling — it should be simple enough for anyone to get started with, but powerful enough for really complex use-cases. Performance is paramount on both the frontend and backend.

---

We have a nice office in London (UK) but are also open to remote hires. If this sounds interesting then I'd love to chat! lukas (at) causal.app

Materials Project, Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory | Web Developer | Berkeley, CA, USA | Onsite | https://materialsproject.org https://lbl.gov

Mission: We are a group of academic researchers who create and curate the Materials Project, the world's leading database of crystalline materials that is freely available for people to query to find materials for applications such as energy, batteries, solar, water splitting, optoelectronics and more. Our user base is growing exponentially (now >120k) and includes a wide range of people, from students who are just encountering materials science for the first time, to academic researchers and industry users. We’re now in the process of building a new frontend for the website to meet some key needs that have arisen as the project has grown, as well as to share some of the latest data we’ve been generating which will require deep thought in how best to make this data accessible and understandable to the broadest possible audience. If this sounds exciting to you, please get in touch. The Materials Project was founded in 2011.

Technologies: This is a good time to start working with us since we're at the early stages of designing our new frontend, and you will have an opportunity to help us shape what that looks like. We've settled on React and TypeScript for our core technologies, and are committed to modern best practices where possible. Due to the large number of Python developers in our team, we will also be making heavy use of the Plotly Dash framework, and extending this using custom React components, so some Python familiarity will also be useful. All the code we write is open source https://github.com/materialsproject

Team: You will be joining a small team of four core developers, along with a larger research group of many postdocs and graduate students here at LBL, and also interacting with our collaborators worldwide. COVID statement: This is an on-site job, however we are currently working remote and have been given guidance to expect this to continue until the end of September.

The official job ad, further details on how to apply, and our equal employment opportunity statement are all available here: https://lbl.referrals.selectminds.com/jobs/web-developer-the...

Please note that this ad is a re-post from June, and we are currently interviewing candidates. However if the job ad link is still active then that means we are still accepting applications. We look forward to hearing from you!

I’m the Founder of an early stage (just me) startup building a hiring solution for early stage, small and mid-sized companies. Hiring is broken - we all know that. One of the biggest reasons is how companies hire and the experience of looking for jobs. On the company side, I'm building a product/tool that helps them hire better/faster (think an anti-ATS ATS). On the candidate side, I'm building a community that lets you find opportunities without ever having to apply to a job again.

I’m looking for a talented full-time, remote engineer to join me as we build this from the ground up. Check out the apply link to learn more about me.

Who I'd love to work with:

- someone who has strong experience working with Rails and/or React (so we can move fast)

- fast learner and operator. We are going to move fast, build and deploy experiments, and iterate our way to product/market fit.

- you have decent design sense/front-end skills as an engineer (i.e., you can take a wireframe and translate it into something nice - we'll use Tailwind UI)

- you don't have a chip on your shoulder, are humble but confident in your abilities, and have high standards for your work

- can balance perfectionism when it comes to quality without boiling the ocean (we're not going to aim for full test coverage, in fact should we just use Airtable as a back-end for our MVP initially? these are the questions we may grapple with).

- not looking for something too cushy. It's just the two of us for some time with a lot to prove ahead of us.

- based outside the US

ONSITE on Abbot Kinney, Venice Beach, LA Los Angeles (but remote for now).

AE Studio is looking to hire software developers with sufficient social skills to communicate with some interesting clients

The role is a hybrid individual contributor/manager role with a lot of interesting challenges involved. We've found that the people who succeed best in them are entrepreneurial developers who love to code but also feel like they should try out "management" or have some freelance or entrepreneurial experience.

We have a pretty fun team of developers, data scientists, designers and PMs. We build products for startups like Protocol Labs and large companies like Samsung, and work on cool stuff in house. We’re particularly passionate about building products that increase human agency.

We’re currently building things like a COVID-19 test platform and computer vision to do home test, a customizable merch platform with some cool computer vision and nlp behind it, and computer vision for preventative medicine pee sticks.

Apply at https://ae.studio/join-us
