San Francisco/ London/ Barcelona/ Madrid/ Sydney | TokBox | JavaScript Engineers, Head of HR, Product Marketing Manager, BizDev Managers in 1) Healthcare and 2) Education) | 98% Onsite, remote for the right fit

https://tokbox.com/

TokBox does embedded communications powered by WebRTC. We make it easy for developers to embed real-time video, voice, and more into their applications and websites. We build a platform and SDKs, and have great clients from individual developers to massive players in tech, entertainment, education, and many other industries (customers include the Minerva Project, Chegg, esurance, Major League Baseball, Double Robotics, and Fox Sports). We've been doing real-time communications for over 8 years. We were acquired by Telefonica 3 years ago. It hasn't changed the culture much, and has helped us reach more customers around the world.

The product is great but the people make this place where I work. It's an awesome group of 70 or so people- nice, smart, skilled. We are laid back and have a sense of humor. Good salary and benefits, relaxed, enjoyable environment!

We've hired a ton in 2015 and are continuing to keep hiring in 2016. We're looking for a JavaScript engineer in Australia who wants a challenge on a small fast moving team. Our head of HR is sadly leaving after 5 years, so we need a replacement. We’re looking for someone with product and/or marketing experience to do product marketing. For business development, we're looking for people with strong experience in either healthcare or education.

Earlier quoted context omitted.

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 int…

I'm Adam, the CTO. Sincerest apologies that this was your experience and for the communication issues. We're a small team (15 as of today), and our hiring process has certainly had some rough edges, though I think we've put the right processes in place to make sure this doesn't occur moving forward. Feel free to reach out if you'd like to discuss further: adam@statmuse.com.

I appreciate the apology. My advice would be to take introductions from qualified applicants seriously. I do understand that you are a very busy person, but you should either hire someone to handle the hiring process or take the time to respond to with a simple "We went with someone else."

Density (http://www.density.io) | San Francisco, CA, USA / Syracuse, NY, USA | Full Time

Open Positions

- Eng: Embedded Systems Engineer (Embedded Linux)

- Eng: Front End Engineer (React)

- Admin: Office Operations

- Ops: Strategic Sourcing Manager

- Ops: New Product Introduction Program Manager

We offer competitive salary and stock options. Contact jobs@density.io and include the information you think is relevant.

At Density, we build a small sensor that measures how busy a location is in realtime. Customers mount the unit above a doorway, connect it to power and WiFi, and use our API to access how many people have visited. When we announced what we were doing last summer, we hoped technical companies and developers would reach out. They did. But so too did hundreds of others from all around the world and in completely different markets. Some with expansive, two thousand location networks, others asking for a few hundred, and many with just one set of doors they deeply cared about: airlines, SMBs, Fortune 500s, startups, ad agencies, country transit systems, etc.

We’ve since learned that “human load balancing” is a widespread and unsolved problem. Today, we believe our platform may democratize access to a fundamental piece of information that has simply been uncollected and lost.
