Ask HN: Who is hiring? (August 2021)

Over the past year, we’ve worked hard to build an exceptional team, raise over $180 million in funding, and provide homes for thousands of families, meaningfully changing their financial future. Our customers choose any home for sale, and Divvy buys it on their behalf. The customer leases the home back from us while building equity credits along the way, preparing to buy the home at the end of their lease. Our customers get to live in their future home today, while buying fractions of the home over time. Our stack is Node, React, Postgres, RabbitMQ, Kubernetes, GCP

Lightning Labs is hiring! We’re looking to expand our team to build technology that'll bring Bitcoin to the next billion people. Our current focus is the development and deployment of the Lightning Network, an open blockchain scalability protocol. We push the edge of innovation with regard to blockchain scalability, privacy-preserving smart contracts, and cryptocurrency UX. If you’re interested in one of the positions below, please apply using our careers page: https://lightning.engineering/join-us. And if you know someone who might be a good fit, we'd very much appreciate any referrals.

{Lightning Infrastructure Engineer}:

We're looking for a systems-oriented engineer who will design and build out key components to support the growth of the Lightning Network. These tools will lower the barrier to entry for operating Lightning nodes and enable existing node operators to more effectively manage their infrastructure. You'll work on products such as Lightning Pool (https://lightning.engineering/pool/), as well as other Bitcoin-based backend systems to make Lightning more useable, and secure.

{Crypto Protocol Engineer}:

Experienced systems software engineer versed in applied cryptography, peer-to-peer networks, distributed systems, open source software, and cryptocurrency protocols to design and implement core protocol and algorithmic components of the Lightning Network. Solid programming skills, experience with Go, C, or C++. Prior contributions to crypto protocols and open source software collaboration preferred.

{Frontend Application Developer}:

Frontend developer to build secure cross-platform second-layer blockchain applications. Our applications are built on EmotionJS, React and MobX, communicating with a Lightning daemon over a binary RPC protocol. Ideal applicants should have experience building and shipping React applications and maintaining open source projects.

What we do: We're building an intelligent org chart, which essentially is a way for senior leaders to design organisations that work well, with clarity and good fit for the individual contributors at that company.

We're searching for a wide range of experience from interns to a senior engineer to own our architecture strategy. Full stack Typescript. We use Svelte and Express with Apollo GraphQL. No Svelte experience? That's fine, you can come & learn.

Apply at https://jobs.smartrecruiters.com/Functionly/743999764972872-... - even if you're not at senior level we can fill the other roles from there.

You may remember Foursquare from that check-in app in the early 2010's. The check-in app is still around but these days we are focused on building best-in-class data and analytics products for working with location. A few highlights include:

* Global POI dataset representing rich attributes for 100mm+ venues in the world

* Pilgrim SDK for powering location-aware mobile app development

* Unfolded Studio (recent acquisition) for stunning visualizations and fast spatial analytics in the browser

In 2020 we completed a big merger with Factual (https://www.factual.com), and recently added the excellent team from Unfolded (https://www.unfolded.ai) to the fold (badum-tss). I've been an engineer here for 4.5 years and have gotten to work on a ton of great projects in that time. If you're interested in location and geospatial data problems at internet scale, it's a great place to be.

We're hiring for a ton of roles across all disciplines of Software Engineering and Data Science: https://foursquare.com/careers/. I'm happy to speak to anyone who's interested. If I don't know about the role you're looking for I can route you to the person who does. Email me at horace at foursquare.com.
