TalkJS | REMOTE (Europe) or ONSITE (Eindhoven, Netherlands) | https://talkjs.com

TalkJS lets developers build custom chat features in hours instead of months. We're product driven and we power communication inside online marketplaces, community sites, trading platforms and so on.

⠀

-- HEAD OF SALES --

Demand for TalkJS is quickly increasing to the point that we have more leads than we can manage. This means that now is the time to double down on sales, so we're looking to make our first dedicated sales hire.

We're looking for someone who:

    * Loves tech
    * Has demonstrable experience selling technology B2B
    * Wants to jump on a rocket ship that's just taking off²

We offer you an opportunity to start, build, and lead our sales team as we grow. Significant equity is on the table, as well as the chance to work in a great collaborative, open and constructive distributed team culture.

Read more & apply via https://talkjs.com/jobs/

²) I'm well aware that this is a platitude, but in our case it's really quite true and it wasn't half a year ago. We're blowing up and we need your help :-)

⠀

-- MOBILE DEVELOPER WHO LOVES API DESIGN --

TalkJS is currently focused on the web and that's just not good enough. Easy to use APIs and SDKs are the key to our success on the web, and we're looking to do this natively on mobile as well. We could use your help with that.

If you're an experienced developer who's good at coming up with Java and Swift APIs that Android/iOS devs love to use, then get in touch. We don't have the job opening published yet, so just email to hey@talkjs.com. Bonus points if you can show us an API you designed (on any platform).

Like the sales job, this is remote (Europe) or on-site in Eindhoven, NL.

⠀

No recruiters or agencies, please.

Crux Informatics | Infrastructure Engineer | San Francisco (SF) or New York (NYC) | ONSITE | https://jobs.lever.co/cruxinformatics

The Crux Infrastructure team’s mission is to provide infrastructure products that enable Engineering to work efficiently, run reliable services, and remain secure. We build products designed to be used by our fellow engineers. These products can be anything from amazing development environments, to seamless continuous delivery services, to simple out-of-the-box service monitoring, to core compute infrastructure that just works.

You might like this role if you:

- Enjoy writing Python and/or Go (golang), and can write high quality code

- Sweat the details, while focusing on impact

- Aim higher, while keeping it simple

- Hear about a proposed design and immediately start thinking about the end-to-end workflow, edge cases, failure modes, and security risks

- Are excited about building internal products that make your fellow engineers happier and more productive, and our services more reliable and secure

- Think observability is critical to running reliable services

- Love the idea of unleashing a simian army to wreak havoc on systems

- Get satisfaction from helping others

- Can geek-out about Linux to the point that those around you think you are weird

We don’t expect a single candidate to be an expert in all areas, but if some of these ring true to you, you might like this role.

The company:

With Crux, companies can harness data without the high costs. Our data engineers deliver action-ready data to businesses via our cloud platform. By delivering action-ready data through the cloud, we dramatically reduce the need for companies to build infrastructure to manage and process data. We also eliminate the burdensome tasks which eat up 80% of data teams’ time and energy—wrangling data to prepare it for analysis. We help people devote their time and energy at work to finding insights and creating returns—the work that’s truly valuable.

Scientists anywhere can define and (reproducibly!) run experiments over the internet on-demand and without investing up-front in a lab facility.

The Transcriptic Common Lab Environment (TCLE) takes Autoprotocol (http://autoprotocol.org/), a high-level JSON description of a science protocols, and executes it on our custom-integrated robotic facilities. The protocols we handle routinely involve solving constraint programming models with thousands of variables and constraints in order to find the best plan that fulfills the scientist’s intent. We are looking for backend engineers to help us with this effort.

Scientists manage their experiments through our web application or via our API. We provide a single platform that controls scientific devices from many vendors in a unified way, and an interface to control our automated labs. We are looking for full-stack engineers to help build out our web app.

Turning science into an information technology requires being able to encode, abstract, and execute scientific intent programmatically. We work to span the gap between science and our software stack to ensure that science is being correctly abstracted and faithfully executed as well as work on the leading edge to create tooling for better protocol development. We are looking for software engineers with scientific knowledge to join our scientific software engineering group to help define and build out how science will be encoded.

Tech stack includes: Linux, Python, Scala, RabbitMQ, Rails, Typescript, React, Ansible, Postgres

Blip (https://www.blipbillboards.com/) | Senior Software Engineer, Junior Software Engineer, DevOps | ONSITE | Provo, UT

Blip brings adwords advertising to billboards.

Through Blip, businesses of all sizes buy billboard space where and when they want. Large advertisers use our network to advertise nationally. Smaller advertisers use us to buy billboard space without contracts and in small or even tiny increments (think pennies for seconds instead of kilo-dollars for months).

As we move from serving hundreds of billboards in the US and Canada to serving thousands globally, we need developers. Our current stack is AWS / Postgres (Heroku, Citus) / Redis / Django / Angular. We use Typescript on the front end and a bit of Rust on the back end.

Come and grow with us!

Reach out to me or to allison@blipbillboards.com if you want to learn more.
