Dwolla | Front End Engineer | Des Moines, IA | ONSITE Looking for a smart and compassionate person to work with me on a Marketing Engineering team. We're doing our best to cultivate an inclusive culture (don't be an asshole) and to build a useful SaaS product (API) that we can be proud of. Des Moines may be flyover country, but it's sort of a hidden gem. I don't care at all if you have a degree, only that you've got…

Is Dwolla ever going to be open to remote? I live in Dubuque and would love to apply, but I can't relocate.

Hi! We do have some remote folks and I think we're open to it on a case by case basis. For this front end position we're starting a new team and I think remote would make that pretty difficult at first. Our Platform and Product Engineer postings may be more open to that right now.

Hopefully as time goes by we have more flexibility :)

Sanity.io is a startup building world-leading cloud-hosted content infrastructure at enterprise scale. Basically we provide a global, real time structured content database with powerful query capabilities and an open source framework to build highly customized content management interfaces on top of it.

We're looking for senior Go developers to help build our distributed document store. If you get a kick out of distributed systems, database theory, and query language design then we'd love to talk with you - prior experience with these fields is not necessary, as long as you're eager to learn. Position will primarily be based in Oslo, Norway, although we will consider applicants for our upcoming San Francisco office as well.

We offer competitive salary and stock options, a flexible work environment open to periods of remoting, a tight and friendly team with an awesome work/play ethic, base in the second happiest country in the world (Norway) in one of Europe's fastest growing cities (Oslo), and awesome social benefits as mandated by Norwegian law including five weeks of paid vacation, universal health care, child benefits, and one year of paid parental leave.

Radiant Earth Foundation | DevOps Engineer | Oakland, CA | Onsite

Radiant Earth Foundation's core mission is to make insights from remote sensing data and machine learning an order of magnitude more accessible for global non-profits, humanitarian organizations, emerging economy governments, and others. https://radiant.earth

We provide a free platform that takes care of all of the geospatial processing and machine learning so that users with any level of remote sensing experience, from zero to expert, can use near real-time data to get geospatial insights for their use case.

In addition to our platform, we work with organizations on complex use cases with high-impact outcomes. Since our founding in 2016, we've worked with the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation (a primary funder), the Omidyar Network (another primary funder), as well as the United Nations Institute for Training and Research, Schmidt Futures, the World Bank and more.

We work with a range of fellows and contractors to support our efforts, but our in-house engineering/ML team is just 2 people :) In addition to being somebody who is excited to be part of a small team working on large-scale problems (right now we're all generalists, to an extent), we're especially interested in applicants who want to help us foster a team culture of respect, inclusion, and diversity.

Apply here: https://bit.ly/2CLLzdK

If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to shoot me an email: alando (at) radiant.earth
