Seattle, WA - REMOTE: Apsis Labs is looking to add another engineer. We are a small independent development firm located in Seattle, WA, but work as a distributed team. We have a stable client base, offer retirement and health benefits, competitive salary, and a 20-hour work week. Read more about our job philosophy here: http://apsis.io/apsis/blog/2015/04/23/work-sustainably/ . Questions, contact: jobs at apsis.io

Huh, that sounds intriguing.

What 'kind' of engineer are you looking for? Any specific platforms, languages or fields of interest? I went through the site and the portfolio consists of multiple (and very different) projects, so I'm just wondering how it works. :)

=====================================

Technical Cofounder Near Oakland, CA.

=====================================

We’re looking for an ambitious, full-stack javascript developer to join our team.

The product is a database in the cloud. But, it’s not for applications, it’s for people.

Instead of apps storing people’s data, people bring their own personal database for apps to use. That's this database.

Apps can read and write data to it, and multiple apps can be connected to it simultaneously.

The owner of the database can disconnect it at any time, without losing their data, and finally use one set of data everywhere.

It’s a paradigm shift. Once you open this door, tons of neat things are possible.

If this sounds interesting to you, please contact me.

We're a pretty small software consulting agency, so we're looking for engineers that are capable of learning new technologies and adopting to best-practices in those technologies.

Ideally, we're looking for people that:

* bring expertise in at least one framework that we're likely to use[1], and

* love to start projects in a software stack that they haven't used before.

[1] Rails, django, iOS, Android, Xamarin, WPF, visual design skills
