Virtulus | Cambridge, MA | www.virtulus.com

We're building a location-based, smart mobile search engine that delivers the right information at the right time and place, without having to switch between a hundred different apps on your phone to get the information you need. In some sense we want to become a search engine that can search "inside apps" by indexing content within APIs. Co-founders are both MIT EECS PhD graduates.

Please write to us for more details: info@virtulus.com

We're looking for

* back-end engineers who have a passion for location-based services and huge graph databases. Our software stack uses Python, Flask, MongoDB, Neo4j, Redis and running on AWS

* front-end engineers with a good sense of design and experience developing iOS native apps and/or responsive HTML5 apps

Prefer Boston area candidates, but we will also welcome exceptional candidates from the Bay Area (the founders may consider moving the company there in the future).

Nava - Washington DC

I'm part of a small team of expats from Silicon Valley that came out to DC last year to help fix healthcare.gov. (Mostly Stanford, Google, Y Combinator folks) We've learned a ton, and see an opportunity to create software that radically improves how our government serves its people - we've started our company, Nava, to chase that vision. In the last 6 months, we've launched 2 major projects:

- App 2.0, the new insurance application for healthcare.gov. It's processing 70% of apps coming through the marketplace, and: converts 35% more people than the old app, gets them through in half the time, is mobile-friendly (20% of apps), sits on robust, scalable infrastructure, etc etc. It was the first system that CMS (Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Service) ever hosted on Amazon AWS.

- Scalable Login System (SLS), the new identity management system for healthcare.gov. Sadly, the main achievement here is that the system is actually up and available, unlike its predecessor. It's now saving the taxpayer $70M in annual maintenance costs.

Here's a Wired article from last summer about us: http://www.wired.com/2014/06/healthcare-gov-revamp/

We're just starting on a few major new projects that have a huge potential to improve our government. We have the technical experience to do things the right way, and the relationships and trust inside government agencies to get things done. Our momentum is strong, the problem is important, and we're looking for good people.

If you're the type that would get fired up about reimagining broken government experiences and technology, please drop us a line at jobs@navahq.com, we'd love to hear from you!

Specifically, we’re looking for:

- a product manager with a technical background

- a senior devops engineer

- a senior full-stack engineer

Hillary for America (HFA) | NYC | Frontend, Backend, and DevOps

Our engineers will be building the next generation digital organizing platform for the 2016 race. Right now we're a small team, but we have many spots on our technology team to fill. It's so early that we don't have a great job site yet. Here's a little bit of info about us:

Our Chief Digital Strategist, Teddy Goff, is from Obama 2008 & 2012. Our CTO, Stephanie Hannon, is from Google. I worked Obama 2012 and more recently came from Optimizely to HFA as the Director of Frontend Engineering and Optimization.

If you haven't worked on a campaign before, it is quite a unique experience. If you're interested, email your resume to kylerrush at gmail dot com and let me know what kind of role you're looking for!

Zesty (YC W14) | San Francisco, CA (or remote) | https://www.zesty.com/jobs

We're hiring Rails and Ember engineers.

If you’re interested in building the kind of back-end systems that power Uber and Lyft, Zesty is a way to get in on the very ground floor of an engineering team with similar challenges. You’d be one of the first 5 engineers to join and would work closely with our founders.
