Liberty Advisor Group, Anywhere in US (preferably Chicago or SF Bay Area, but not required)

This is a very unique position in that we are not a "tech startup" but rather provide services to technology investors and IT groups within large organizations seeking to transform their businesses with technology. I'm looking for someone who has a background developing web (or mobile) applications and can leverage that knowledge to provide strategic direction to investors and CxO's.

What we do: We provide M&A transaction services for Private Equity and Venture Capitalists, as well as general technology strategy for businesses of all sizes. This role would be focused on M&A deals mainly for middle market technology companies with revenues between $1M and $400M.

About you:

- Understand what agile management looks like

- Understand financials (Capex vs Opex, EBITDA, leverage buyouts, etc)

- May have personally fully developed a solution using web technology or have a varied history of doing so. Hands on .NET, Java and Rails are pluses

- Can understand the difference between the "old guard" tech companies and "unicorns" and decipher the business value between the two for investors

- Understand the role of a strategy/management consultant for M&A professionals

- Are a self starter and self learner (don't need much direction to get stuff done)

- Background at a management consulting company is a plus

- If you've written code and executed an IT due diligence service for an investor before, then you should apply

- Like to travel

Please contact me directly with the Subject line "HN Opportunity" and your resume attached (brief intro why you're a good fit would be good too). If you do not follow these instructions you'll be ignored. My email is mbestvina AT our website linked below.

NoRedInk | San Francisco, CA or REMOTE for Senior, Pacific Time (PST) to Central European Time (CET)

We’re an ed-tech company on a mission to help all students become strong writers! Our team may be small, but NoRedInk is used by 1 in 3 school districts in the US, and students have answered over 1 billion questions on our platform.

We’re a group of friendly people who listen to and learn from each other. We discuss past mistakes openly so we can adapt our processes to the challenges that come with progress. Puns flow freely across our San Francisco office as well as on Slack, and we have remote engineers spanning six different time zones.

Our engineering team [1] prides itself on code quality and innovation. We use the cutting-edge Elm programming language for all our new front-end code, and have been migrating legacy React code to Elm as well. We started with Ruby on Rails on our backend, and have lately been working to introduce Elixir to our stack. You can read about our experiences with these technologies on our team blog! [2]

In addition to spending work hours open-sourcing useful libraries we develop [3], we also invest financially in open source. We hired the creator of Elm, Evan Czaplicki, to develop Elm full time. [4] Evan discusses his plans for the language with the team every week, periodically pairs with other engineers on Elm, and cracks up members of the sales team with his lunchtime jokes.

We use Amazon AWS for our infrastructure and automate all of our deployments using OpsWorks and Chef. We write a lot of tests, and use Jenkins for continuous integration. Our process for new features begins with our product team and in-house visual designer, continues with a GitHub pull request from a feature branch into master, and ends with our in-house QA specialist trying to break it before it reaches production.

We’re hiring both Senior Engineers who have been around the block many times, as well as Junior Engineers who are just getting started. We’re looking for Junior Engineers who are eager to learn, who thrive on great mentorship, and who want to work on a mission that makes a difference. We’re looking for Senior Engineers who are the type of collaborators that value kindness and open-mindedness, over convincing the group they’re right.
