Friendly Captcha | Infrastructure Engineer | REMOTE within EU | PART-TIME or FULL-TIME | Office in Munich, Germany | https://friendlycaptcha.com

At Friendly Captcha we do one thing and we do it well: we protect websites from malicious actors and bots.

We provide privacy-friendly and accessible anti-bot solutions that don’t annoy users with tasks like clicking fire hydrants. We make the internet a bit better every day by winning over customers currently using Google reCAPTCHA.

We’re a fast-growing, profitable, fully bootstrapped company. Our revenue mostly comes from medium to large European enterprise and governments.

A great fit would be someone pragmatic, who prefers to keep things simple (perhaps boring is the right word?). Good knowledge of modern DevOps/SRE practices is expected (IaC, GitOps, etc...).

Our engineering team is fully remote across Europe, we meet up once per quarter or so. You can work either 4 or 5 days per week, fully remote or (partially) from our Munich office. Please note that we ONLY consider candidates located within the EU.

Stack: Golang | Typescript | Clickhouse | Postgres | Redis | Terraform | OpenTelemetry

SpruceID (YC W21) | Full REMOTE | Multiple Roles | Full-Time | spruceid.com

Spruce lets users control their data across the web. We are creating the world’s best open source software for user-centric digital identity. Instead of users logging into platforms, we think platforms should ask permission to access data vaults controlled by users.

We hire programmers who love technology and are committed to intellectual honesty, user privacy, and innovation. Our products are composed from a combination of industry-trusted frameworks, applied cryptography, new interoperable identity standards (W3C, ISO/IEC, IETF, and OpenID), and custom backend libraries.

Select roles:

Senior Product Manager: Help drive the growth of a new product family which empowers government agencies and enterprises to manage the entire lifecycle of digital credentials for a wide range of use cases. This role will be responsible for developing product vision, roadmap, user stories, timelines, and implementation strategy.

Software Engineer, Android: Build software prototypes and product features from start to finish for Android and iOS, embedding our Rust core.

Earlier quoted context omitted.

I've been nerd sniped! Emailed you. Also, the current theme I'm seeing across many companies is "we have added lots of engineers/products/vendors and we need to focus on building a platform (infra, automation) that lets us ship and not get in the way". It seems industry went from un-bundling engineers --> sre, devops, network, security, developers --> re-bundling much of this knowledge back into a new role/practice a…

Is "platform engineering" the new buzzword for DevOps?

It's a psyops campaign run by DevOpsers/SREs to enable them to actually write code instead of being 100% ops.

Just commenting to say I really like your careers website and approach to running a consultancy.

Interesting use of xtermjs. :) Even if not nice for mobile usage. (or maybe it is a feature?)

For me it actually works pretty well on mobile?

Earlier quoted context omitted.

what is the remote policy? on the company website only a few positions are listed as remote.

unless things have changed their remote policy is pretty much a no remote policy. to be fair to them, I last interacted with them 6 or 7 years ago so things could certainly have changed, but at least at the time I felt like "Remote" was a bait and switch there

Yeah one of my coworkers bounced back because he was forced to RTO despite being offered a remote job.
