Smarkets | Full Time | ONSITE (London, UK; now also Downtown LA, California)

We're a modern betting exchange, going technology first to enable proper price competition in a field of fat commissions. Join a small, agile, and fast-growing team, in our beautiful office in St. Katharine Docks. If our US location tickles your fancy, you get to help setting up a brand new office too.

Smarkets develops a reliable, low-latency, highly concurrent betting exchange based on trading exchange designs. We're also building a fast, modern web interface to allow for a smoother experience. Servicing our users is top priority.

The Smarkets platform is written predominantly in Python and Erlang, and relies heavily on asynchronous programming techniques. We use REST where we can. Life at Smarkets circles around people, version control, configuration management and automation. We can - and do - deploy to production several times a day.

Our entire production is in AWS. In fact, Smarkets was the first gambling operator under the Maltese regulator to get permission to run everything in the cloud. We push the envelope where needed and educate auditors when necessary.

We are looking for engineering talent in the following roles:

* Database Expert

* Frontend Software Engineer, London & LA

* Quantitative Analyst

* Software Engineer, London & LA

If you like the idea of flat structure and practical engineering approach, see our jobs at https://smarkets.com/careers/ . (Quite some time ago I wrote an overview about our engineering challenges, which you can find at https://smarketshq.com/notes-on-interviewing-engineers-a4fa4... .)

Storyful | Front-end Developer | Dublin, Ireland | ONSITE | https://storyful.com/about/careers/

We find breaking news on social platforms, verify it for journalistic ethics, license where appropriate and supply to our clients; among whom we count a large chunk of the world's news rooms. We're often the first to source, and verify the authenticity of, news of global and/or critical importance.

Some projects we've worked on recently include a collaboration with international journalists to build a fake news source database and a platform to track and index communications by ISIL on so-called 'closed-networks'.

We're hiring for a Front-end Developer. Deep knowledge of Javascript is a must; experience with Ember or strong experience with another front-end JS framework is a huge plus.

We're still a small engineering team at under 40 people, so you have a chance to make a real difference whilst doing work that is truly fulfilling.

If think you'd like to join you can use the link above or contact me directly at john.hope[at]storyful.com and AMA. A visa to work within the EU is required for engineering roles at Storyful.

Outreach (https://www.outreach.io) | Software Engineer | Seattle | ONSITE

I found Outreach last year on a "Who is hiring?" thread myself and joined the team shortly thereafter. I'm now the lead for one of our two platform teams and I'm looking to hire experienced software engineers to help us scale our backend systems.

Outreach is a sales engagement platform. We've got great customers (https://www.outreach.io/customers/) and have raised around $60M to date (through a series C round). We just moved into a new office in the Fremont/Wallingford neighborhood of Seattle. We pay competitive market salaries and offer excellent benefits. For example, I just returned to work from four weeks of paternity leave and was welcomed with eight weeks of paid postpartum doula support; I can't express how thankful my family was to have four well-rested nights of sleep each week.

Our team is working to scale our monolithic Ruby on Rails application as our customer list continues to grow. We own our core CRM, API platforms, background frameworks and our bidirectional syncing systems with Salesforce. In addition to Ruby/Rails, we use MySQL, RabbitMQ, Elasticsearch and Redis.

For the backend role, I am particularly interested in individuals with strong software design/architecture skill sets and those who excel at managing complexity.

Please reach out to ted.kimble@outreach.io if you are interested. We also have a number of other engineer opportunities available, including roles in front-end development (React), data science and machine learning. See our careers page for all job details: https://outreach.io/company/careers/.
