ProteinQure | Computational drug design | Full-stack dev | Toronto (onsite)

ProteinQure is building the next generation of computational tools to aid in early-stage drug discovery. We're using a combination of physical simulations, quantum computing and reinforcement learning to reimagine how pharma companies create new therapeutics. The tools and molecules we are making hope to transform the world.

We are seeking a Full Stack Developer to become an integral part of our drug design team! You will be responsible for spearheading the development of our distributed internal simulation platform.

Responsibilities: We're an early-stage startup and thus you will be working closely with our CTO and CSO on extending and developing our internal simulation platform, both on the frontend and backend. The simulation platform analyzes and visualizes data that is collected from the compute nodes. To address our scaling needs, and to leverage our resources efficiently, the platform runs on a heterogenous mix of cloud and internal nodes. To handle the complexity, you will rely on tools like containerization to cope with the different environments. While emphasis is made on data collection, preservation and internal system maintenance, your role will also involve the use of public databases and APIs, visualization, scraping, development of JS tools and UX design.

Nice to haves: Familiarity with Python data science stack Interest in quantum computing and machine learning Basic understanding of protein structures and modelling

Required Qualifications: Previous experience in software development, computer engineering, or other related fields Familiarity with OOP-based Python 3, testing frameworks, REST, software architecture Experience with web backend development, databases, networking and containerization User level experience with work in cloud-based VM environment (i.e. AWS, Azure, OpenNebula, etc..) Linux system administration skills Passing knowledge of HTML5, CSS3 and JavaScript Deadline and detail-oriented Strong analytical and critical thinking skills

year end bonus that is influenced by your work during the year, our profitability and where you live You should pay me for the value I bring to your business, where I chose to live shouldn't have anything to do with how much I get paid for remote position. Gitlab pull the same trick, and wrap a complicated set of metrics around it, but it still comes off as cheapskating.

At GitLab we pay market rates instead of paying the same wage for the same role in different regions. Paying the same wage in different regions would lead to: 1. A concentration of team members in low-wage regions, since it is a better deal for them, while we want a geographically diverse team. 2. Team members in high-wage regions having less discretionary income then ones in low-wage countries with the same role. 3.…

I mean, from your perspective this makes sense, though as far as I’m concerned it boils down to “We want to pay the least amount of money for the best people.”

But for me as a developer, even though Gitlab would be really interesting to work for, it’s generally a bad deal because pretty much any other remote company is going to pay me a great deal more.

You’re basically relegating Gitlab to being the second choice for anyone in any region.

Gitlab is amazing though, so it must be working out alright.

Since remote work is perhaps the most popular thread topic on HN there are plenty of other places to debate this. In this context, it's off topic.

We detached this subthread from https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=17904389 and marked it off-topic accordingly.

Pioneer | Frontend, Full-stack, Data Science | Open Source | Full Time | https://pioneer.app We’re building a community of creative young people working on interesting projects around the globe. We use software to find people that lack opportunity but have great talent and ambition. We give them small grants to support their work and try to use various gamification techniques to keep them motivated on their project.…

It's a cool project, I submitted one of my old nonprofits just for fun and it's been interesting to see how pioneer works.

I'm curious why you didn't set up a forum for pioneer - was that deliberate?

Also, approximately how many awards are you giving out, it would be nice to know if you're aiming for top 10, or top 100.
