Having just gone through the naturalization process (N-400), I just want to say thanks for having a pretty good online experience.

Not naturalization, but also recently went through the process and I have to agree the online experience was pretty great. Unfortunately it the department was still recovering from the massive backlog it grew during the Trump administration's attempt to monkeywrench so the rest of the experience was rather painful. But at least the website makes it easy to find the info you need...

How do you get around not having to list on USAJobs? My friend in the federal gov found your application details very curious.

Suitable candidates will be forwarded to our government contracting partners who will interview, hire, and place on our team. It is not government hiring so no need for listing on USAJobs

If it's not government hiring how is it legal to require citizenship?

Grit | Senior+ Engineers (ML, PL, Design, Backend) | New York, San Francisco, or Remote | Full-time | $120–250k + equity

We’re building software to automatically fix technical debt. We do this by combining expressive static analysis tooling (we’ve built a developer-friendly query language for code) with machine learning to automatically migrate code to new patterns and platforms. We’re in private beta, but have already deployed thousands of successful changes for beta customers and have raised a $7M seed round from top investors.

We’ve got lots of fun challenges at the intersection of machine learning and programming languages. Our stack is Scala, Rust, TypeScript, Python, and Kubernetes. We’re hiring for both smart generalists and PL/ML experts who are interested in collaborating on problems like automatically inserting new types into codebases and using unit tests for reinforcement learning.

Here are a few reasons you might be interested in applying:

- We work fast and focus on shipping, with a single meeting per week (demos!).

- We’re working on the edge of the possible and doing deep technical work in parsers/language design and machine learning.

- We mostly work in-person in New York and San Francisco, but remote is also possible for outstanding candidates who have proven success in a remote model.

- I’m personally committed to giving real feedback to everyone who applies.

Glo | Remote | Full Time | Non Profit | $100k+ Glo is building a stablecoin that lifts people out of extreme poverty by providing a basic income. We're a nonprofit startup. Our goal is zero extreme poverty. Glo is a fully-backed stablecoin that invests its treasuries in short-term Treasury Bills -- just like Circle (USDC). The difference is we'll then give the proceeds from that investment away to GiveDirectly. We ca…

How does this not become a recursive / pyramid problem? I give you one USD, you lend that at interest and give me a non-interest bearing token in return. Iff this token were accepted as good as USD I could then collect tokens from others and invest those in interest bearing accounts and issue my own "stable" token. If it seems nonsensical at the second iteration it was nonsensical at the first iteration.

Chiming in as an uninvolved participant. It's not "as good as the US Dollar." It's worse in some ways, better in some ways. One man's "95% as good as the dollar for me" is another man's "much better than dollars for me."

The people providing interest bearing accounts would be on the "95% as good as the dollar for me" end.

Wait am I reading this right? You have to be citizen? I'm a permanent resident with full work authorization. I was under the impression that my right to work was protected by law... Otherwise I have solid experience with all technologies listed except InVision

Even if that weren't a requirement, you aren't going to be able to to get clearance without citizenship:

> Non-U.S. citizens do not qualify for a security clearance. [1]

So it's a fairly moot point. That being said, there are plenty of positions that can disqualify you for non-citizenship for protected information. Healthcare, government contractors, etc. Your right to work in the US is protected, your right to a job is not.

Hey buddy, when you're on OUR side of the fake line, your "rights" are what we give ya.

You want the Full America package, you need to naturalize and renounce whichever terrorist government you swear allegiance to now.
