BabyList - Oakland, CA | Full Time | ONSITE

BabyList is making it easier for new parents to prepare for one of the biggest events in their lives. We have an extremely engaged user-base, we’re growing quickly and making real money. Our core product is a universal baby registry, and we are developing our own e-commerce platform and content site. Our HQ is in the Old Oakland neighborhood, 3 blocks from the 12th Street BART. We're a smart and diverse team of 15. Our users actually notice and love what we do (read our AppStore reviews for proof).

Front-end Software Engineer:

Our front-end is driven by React/Redux, Sass, Bootstrap, and we recently released a new section of our iOS app powered by React Native. You would join an excellent product team of 4 software engineers and 2 designers.

Requirements:

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

- Expert-level fluency in Javascript and one modern front-end framework.

- Experience with OOCSS methodologies and an almost unhealthy obsession with keeping CSS (Sass) clean and scalable.

- 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.

- Expert-level fluency in at least one of Ruby, Java, Python, or another modern server-side object-oriented programming language.

- Bachelors in CS, or equivalent experience.

- Experience designing and implementing scalable web services.

- Deep knowledge of testing best practices and continuous deployment.

I'd love to tell you more over the phone or in person. Contact me at august[at]babyli.st or see our jobs page for other open positions - https://babyli.st/jobs

Earlier quoted context omitted.

Just a quick warning: these guys wasted a lot of my time.

I appreciate the feedback and hate thinking we wasted anyone's time. Care to elaborate?

1. I had a video technical interview and it went well.

2. The interviewer said I would make a great fit and tried to introduce me to the CTO.

3. I introduced myself to the CTO and received no response.

4. I contacted the interviewer a week later. He apologized and tried to contact the CTO again.

5. I contacted the interviewer another week later. He apologized and tried to contact the CTO again.

6. I contacted the interviewer another week later and he said something along the lines of "We filled the position, sorry we are unprofessional."

Snapdocs | DevOps & Security Engineer | San Francisco, CA (ONSITE) | Full-Time

Snapdocs (YC W14)- we're hiring our first DevOps Engineer

We currently use OpsWorks to deploy to AWS. We're looking for someone to move us to an even-more-modern workflow. I'm thinking something like Docker and ELB? But that will be your decision.

Snapdocs is an early-stage, rapidly growing company tackling the absolutely massive mortgage market. We're bringing modern, elegant software to a field that still relies on fax machines and manilla envelopes. We bring security, efficiency and joy to a paper-based pillar of the US economy.

Snapdocs’ culture is one that strongly values diversity and drive. We want to work with people of different backgrounds and different paths in life. We value experience and curiosity over college degrees.

We trust our team members to make smart decisions. This means we value both independent work as well as seeking collaboration. We're becoming ubiquitous in one segment of the market and we're looking to hire another core engineer to help us expand further.

Skills & Requirements:

* Experience deploying to AWS.

* You build a stack that is secure by default, while still actively monitoring against threats.

* Experience with auto-scaling servers.

* Experience making a CI build that maximizes coding joy.

* You would be the 6th member of on a fast-growing technical team. This means helping to form a healthy and happy culture. We strive to be respectful of each other's time and point of view. We're learning how to do this together. We're creating a place where it's OK to fail, and that you know the team has your back the whole way through.

* You're self-motivated. To us that means when you get an interesting problem, you will rip into it until you understand its nuances and perhaps have a glimpse of the solution.

* Knowledge of Rails is a huge plus.

Please drop us a line at jobs@snapdocs.com
