Ask HN: Who is hiring? (March 2016)

We've hired ten full-time people and dozens of interns from these "Who is Hiring" threads ... we do go through all of the applications we receive in response. There was some feedback about people not hearing back at all. We take candidate experience very seriously and recently hired someone to own our recruiting process and now everyone who applies through our job board (http://grnh.se/gr84t3) will get a response.

Right now we’re looking for:

* Mid to Senior iOS developers (especially with an interest in tech/team leadership)

* Mid to Senior Android developers

* senior JavaScript engineers

* Backend engineers with experience in search, recommendation, or payments

Please note for Internships: We have filled our internship seats and are not currently interviewing interns.

We've hired people from these threads with everywhere from 0 to 10 years of experience. That being said, there isn’t always an opening that’s a good fit but we do our best to find a match for talented people and there are several people who interviewed 2 or 3 times before the time was right.

To expedite your application, please apply directly to our job board where you’ll find all of our current opening and the job descriptions. We do our best to respond within 24 hours, and you’ll get an answer either way. http://grnh.se/gr84t3

We're profitable, very well funded and have a really fun office environment that still lets our team get their work done. Scribd alumni have gone on to found 4 other YCombinator companies, more than from any other startup. We think this says something about the kind of people that we like to hire, and we love hiring people with entrepreneur and startup ambitions. We are also always looking for international people interested in moving to the US and can help you secure a visa.

I’m trying something a little new that I’m sure our HR department will hate :) There are 2 product roles that I’m looking to hire soon on our Platform/Ecosystem team that Hacker News readers are well suited for. The exact roles may get tweaked a little:

Product Manager of Developer Experience Encourage people solving problems with the open source tools built on top of our platform. That involves 3 main responsibilities: - Own & evangelize our developer docs - Talk to our customers and understand what they’ve built internally - Hire freelancers to build tutorials and basic OSS apps Ideal background: an OSS developer who has managed freelancers before, who has a public profile and a passion for shipping.

Product Manager of API Build the extension points for customers and partners to extend what our app can do natively. A big part of this involves building exciting new kinds of integrations. Ideal background: an experienced PM with the ability to code, ideally who has owned an API before.

I haven’t started hiring yet, but if you know of any amazing candidates for either role, send me their URLs dave@pagerduty.com

TrueCar is hiring Rails, Hadoop, Technical Product Managers, QA and Test Automation Engineers, SDET's, Designers and more in Santa Monica, San Francisco, and Austin.

We acquired the talent of quite a few Carwoo (YCS09) alums a little over a year ago. We've been around for 10 years and went public 1 1/2 years ago.

The company has big plans for the coming years and is looking for good developers to help us grow.

See http://careers.true.com for the full scoop.

We're using Rails and Python (Flask) to serve out all kinds of APIs as well as consumer-facing web experiences and internal tools. Let's see; what else?

* We prefer you work with us in-person in Santa Monica, San Francisco, or Austin. Remote definitely considered for the right candidates, but you must be based in the United States. We'll handle most visa situations.

* Benefits are exceptional: health premiums are 100% paid for (not only for you, but your whole family), we match your 401k (up to 3% of your contributions),

and give stock options and performance bonuses. We also pay for your gym membership (up to $50/month) and have catered lunches every Wednesday.

* Our Santa Monica HQ is right by the beach and Third Street Promenade, so expect fresh air and plenty of food options. Our SF office is right off the Montgomery BART station with 360 degree views of downtown and the bay.

* A meaningful subset of some of the technologies we use: Ruby on Rails, React, Flask, Redis, MySQL, Hadoop, and Elasticsearch (the whole ELK stack).

* VISAS are handled and REMOTE options are available under the right circumstances.

Send an email to me (Brett) (bemma AT truecar.com) with your resume and/or GitHub profile. Even if you're not applying but just have questions, drop me a line

It involves working with Mu, Standard Chartered's in-house compiler. Working with Mu feels very, very similar to just using GHC Haskell though.

I can't give any specific details about milestone skills, but if you've published libraries to Hackage that are used by people you've never heard of that's probably a good sign that it's worth applying.
