GoCardless (YC S11) | London | Frontend, Backend, SRE, Data Engineer | Onsite | Full-time

GoCardless is building a payments network for the internet. Since 2011 we've been focused on simplifying Direct Debit for small and medium companies (who previously had no access to it) and we're now expanding to serve the largest companies (think newspapers, utilities) and connect with existing payment systems in countries all over the world. We already support the UK and Europe and are aiming to expand to more countries over the next year.

As an engineering team at GoCardless we care most about stable, reliable, understandable code. We rely on testing and code review and a culture of frequent constructive feedback. We define and manage our own roadmap and run projects in whatever way works best for us.

Our stack: Rails, Angular, Postgres, Elasticsearch, Docker, Chef. We also have a bit of Go and Python knocking around.

We love learning new things and contributing back to the community. We open source everything we can[1] and regularly host meetups and hackathons at our office in Angel. We have a weekly bookclub within the team and give internal (and external) talks about things that interest us.

Interview process: a couple of phone screens, one take home test, then a couple of onsite interviews (pair programming and some chats - no whiteboards!)

For more info and to apply: https://gocardless.com/jobs. If you've got any questions, drop me an email (it's in my profile).

[1] Notable examples are Statesman (https://github.com/gocardless/statesman) and Coach (https://github.com/gocardless/coach)

We're a smart and diverse team of 15. Our users actually notice and love what we do (read our AppStore reviews for proof).

- Experience with modern front-end build tools (Babel, Browserify, Webpack, Gulp, etc).

- User-obsessed. Once you get to know our users, you deeply empathize and genuinely like them. You could get on the phone with a user (or their grandmother) if they were having an issue.

- You’re opinionated and care intensely about the little details that make a great user experience.

Senior Fullstack Engineer: Our server-side code is powered by Ruby on Rails, MySQL and Redis.

Requirements:

- You've coded a lot, you're hands on, and passionate about building world class applications.

Surprised NGPVAN isn't hiring Security Engineers after the Guccifer2.0 hack.

I'm equally surprised! How does this not paint them in a bad light? From Guccifer 2.0: "I used 0-day exploit of NGP VAN soft then I installed shell-code into the DNC server. It allowed me to intrude into DNC network. They have Windows-based domain architecture. Then I installed my Trojans on several PCs.
