#52We are hiring a software engineer to work on our real-time analytics dashboard. Pythonistas and JavaScript hackers especially desired.
On the company: We've built a real-time content measurement layer for the entire web.
Our analytics platform helps digital storytellers at some of the web's best sites, such as Arstechnica, New Yorker, The Atlantic, The Next Web, and many more. In total, our analytics backend system needs to handle over 50 billion monthly events from over 475 million monthly unique visitors.
Our entire stack is in Python and JavaScript, and our team has innovated in areas related to real-time analytics, building some of the best open source tools for working with modern stream processing technologies. Our UX/design team has also built one of the best-looking dashboards on the planet, using AngularJS and d3.js. You can see some screenshots at http://parse.ly/tour.
Our distributed team is best-in-class and we happily skip commutes by working out of our ergonomic home offices. Here's a photograph of mine running two full-screen Parse.ly dashboards on my monitors: https://flic.kr/p/v1NZ73
We are currently looking for software engineers to help us build the best real-time analytics dashboard the world has ever seen. The only requirement is some experience in Python/JavaScript. Bonus points for an interest in information visualization, Edward Tufte, and d3.js.

#53AREA: Supply Chain Management does not get a lot of attention from the software people, which makes it a great business to be in - less competition means more time spent on customer problems.
PROBLEM: Small and mid-size manufactures from all industry verticals organize their data using Excel, publish paper catalogs using lengthy old-school methods, collect hand-written orders on paper, and get burned out waiting for a simple website to be published or even updated.
SOLUTION: Our product helps them to get with the 21st century - a cloud-based data management platform that helps and encourages organizing data and publish it at once to Paper, iPad, E-commerce, Excel, one-click always-up-to-date Web Sites, and other publishing targets; and to collect orders or interest-data in a well-structured, electronic manner.
ABOUT YOU: Come join us if you already know OR want to learn many of these things:
- Manufacturing and Wholesaling inner workings.
- Having regular direct contact with normal people, and learning to make exceptional software for them.
- Coding for E-Commerce interoperability (Amazon, Wayfair, Magento...)
- Creating client-side (JavaScript / TypeScript) Excel-like web app.
- Coding in C# with ASP.NET MVC for the server side. This is not your father's ASP.NET :)
- Architecting and Programming for Occasionally-Connected mobile devices. Cohesive coupling between ASP.NET MVC on the server and [iOS, Android, Windows 10] on the client.
- Helping us understand and implement a generalized solution for EDI.
- Integrating with paper publishing solutions (small runs).

#55We're a team working on open-source multimedia technologies (VLC/FFmpeg) and new services around video consumption.
We're mostly working on VLC (we did most of the mobile/tv versions of VLC) and other multimedia technologies like FFmpeg. A large part of our activities is also on new web services around video consumption (content, recommendation, etc...).
We're now a team of 13, (9 in Paris, 4 Remote) and we will probably need to hire a few (4?5?) new developers or tech team lead, starting from the middle of January. Remote is OK, if in Europe.
There should be a position for iOS, one for Android, one in low-level C/C++ for VLC's core and codecs, one as a front-end developer (ng) and one in Go.

#56Singapore Aircon, a lifestyle business providing online booking for air conditioner servicing, is looking to bring on a new partner in Singapore. This business was started in 2010 as an experiment in providing an easy-to-use, online option for booking a service required by countless households every day, which otherwise tends to require phone calls, giving directions, and the like.
Since the founders are presently pursuing other opportunities, an opportunity now exists for someone interested in joining, or even taking over, our business on mutually agreeable terms. Our technology stack is a Clojure + jQuery app running on Google App Engine, so any relevant web development experience would be an advantage.
