Prevoty | Software Engineer | Los Angeles | Fulltime

Prevoty is a Runtime Application Self Protection company founded in 2013 that builds language plugins to provide mitigation to security vulnerabilities without the need for modifications to applications. The plugins utilize instrumentation and middleware to automatically insert hooks into applications that perform detection and mitigation of common vulnerability classes such as many of those listed in the OWASP Top 10.

Open Roles

- Language Integration Engineer (Ruby, Python, PHP, Node.js, Lua, or Go w/ C, C++, or Rust)

Do you enjoy digging under the covers of languages and and their implementations? This role specifically is to work on integration of the sections of our engine written in C, C++, and Rust into the host languages (Ruby, Python, PHP, Node.js, Lua, Go, Java, .net). You will utilize their respective FFI support/extension APIs to hack on their runtimes and build instrumentation and the supporting functionality.

- Parser Engineer (C++, ANTLR)

Love parsers and semantic analysis? This role is to work on SQL parser, tree construction, and execution runtimes. You will work with large ANTLR grammars and their C++ backends to build trees for export to other programming languages where semantic analyses of SQL queries are performed.

HVF Labs | Company Builders, Designers and Developers | San Francisco | Salary $75-$120k

HVF is Max Levchin's startup studio - the team here works on all kinds of things that we think we can turn into meaningful and lasting companies. We've started two new companies in the last year and we're currently working on two more. The plan is to do this about four times a year.

We operate under a unique structure here. We bring in a few types of people -

EIR's (disclosure: I am one of those here) These are typically people we believe can start a company and run it taking it the distance as founder/CEO's.

Company Builders - These are people who have a deep interest in joining a company very early (in the idea iteration phase) either as an early employee or a co-founder

HVF Core Staff - These are the people who help the companies coming out of HVF succeed.

So far we've seen Yelp, Affirm, Glow and Divvy Homes publicly announce their launch and as mentioned there are a couple more in the pipeline.

One of the major bonuses about being here is getting to work with brilliant people.

Ben Jun who runs HVF is literally the guy who discovered a side channel attack that allowed people to exploit the voltage output of a Credit Card chip to decrypt the card number. Don't worry he also helped fix it!

It's an environment like no other I've been a part of and we're constantly looking for smart people who love iterating on ideas to join us and help us build something real and meaningful.

It doesn't hurt we get to hang out with people like Ben and Max on a regular basis too.

If this sounds interesting ping me and I'll be happy to have you by or tell you more!

TransferWise (https://transferwise.com/) | Senior Java Developer/Full Stack Engineer | London, United Kingdom | Tallinn, Estonia (Visa Sponsorship Available) | ONSITE | Full-time

Hi guys! Bear with me since I'm not a recruiter: the Treasury team is looking to hire one or two senior engineers for either of our London or Tallinn offices.

Just a bit about what we do: as a core product team we are responsible for managing all the money at TransferWise. By “all the money” - I mean literally everything from customer funds (> 1 billion GBP per month) to the money we’ve raised from investors (396.4 million USD to date).

We track every single penny from the time it enters TransferWise to the time it leaves, we balance different currency routes to ensure there’s always liquidity available where needed and we safeguard customer funds to ensure our users are always protected.

Our team right now is built up of ex-Deutsche Bank, ex-JP Morgan, ex-Mircosoft employees so ideally we’d like someone who has some experience working in the finance world or at least you should be interested interested in trading (not hard with all the cryptocurrency buzz right now).

We run a Netflix style microservices architecture based on Java, Kafka, Spring Boot, React and some other exciting stuff that we’ve built internally.

Anyway, if you’re interested then you should:

1. Apply for one of the roles listed here: https://transferwise.com/jobs/roles/engineering

2. And definitely mention in your cover letter that you’re interested in working with the Treasury team

P.S. If you’re looking for an internship this summer then check out our internship bootcamp on: https://transferwise.com/jobs/roles/engineering which is a 10 week program open to everyone in the EU!

Jackbox Games | Chicago, IL | Onsite | Full-time

I'm hiring a person to join me in running the infrastructure at Jackbox Games. We make party games like Quiplash, Fibbage, and You Don't Know Jack. Here's a gameplay example from when Jimmy Fallon played Quiplash on his show: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UTe6yVbM2Ks

Our infrastructure team right now is, er, me. I could use a hand running the multiplayer servers. The servers themselves are socket.io servers written in node, but I'm transitioning them to Go. Players play our games from a web app on their phones, which acts as the controller. The controller and the game consoles both connect to a server, which is really a glorified messaging proxy. Most of our games are designed for up to 8 players, some more, some less. Many of our games support live audiences of up to 10,000 people; some popular streamers stream our games on Twitch so that their streaming audience can participate in the games, and our games are played at public events (football halftimes, for example).

I'm the lead engineer on the multiplayer server application and the lead devops person. A few of the other engineers pitch in a few hours a week with the servers but I'm the only person working on the server infrastructure full time. We're hoping to find someone to help us continue to evolve the multiplayer server application and share the devops work. We have a handful of ancillary web apps to run, like asset-generating servers, a shopping cart app, and an internal CMS that we use for managing game assets. Redis, AWS, Terraform, Chef, node.js, golang, blah blah blah, we use those things and some other things, too.

Here's the job description: https://jackbox-games.breezy.hr/p/495ceb424998-infrastructur...
