#704Synthetic Minds (YC S18) | REMOTE (for the moment) | $125k-$180k | 7th team member: engineer/designer Synthetic Minds is building program synthesizers, i.e., automation that can write code. We have a working prototype in stealth and are currently in the process of doing user studies. Our hiring needs over the next month are: - Full stack / frontend engineer - Generalist - Passively looking: UI/UX designer Details on…
I always hoped that devs were smart enough not to automate away our own jobs, I guess capatalism wins over self preservation in your case.
There are domains in programming where the cost of errors is too high. Being able to specify requirements in a high-level language and synthesize the program from the specification would prove that there are no errors in the resulting program, assuming you trust the kernel, and bring the resulting cost of producing code that is free of those kinds of errors way down.
An example would be programming authorization control systems. Some enterprises require a stunning level of complexity that testing all the different combinations of authorization rules would be infeasible. Instead, if we can specify the rules in a rich type system, we can synthesize the program that implements the rules. Such a program would be, "correct by construction."
Take a look at projects like Synquid [0] -- it's a really cool idea.

#705Backblaze originated in a founder’s one-bedroom apartment where five people committed to helping people save their data. Backblaze provides backup and cloud storage that’s astonishingly easy to use and inexpensive. Our customers use our services so they can pursue dreams like curing cancer (genome mapping is data intensive), archiving the work of some of the greatest artists on the planet (learn more about how Austin City Limits uses Backblaze B2 Cloud Storage), or simply sleeping well at night (anyone that’s spilled a cup of coffee on a laptop knows the relief that comes with complete, secure backups). We are entrusted with almost an exabyte of data from customers in more than 150 countries. We exited 2019 growing quickly and cash flow positive, and we’ve done all this with just $3M of funding.
But while there is a lot to celebrate in our past, there is almost as much opportunity ahead of us.
Roles:
* Lead Application Security Engineer
* Data Engineer
* Lead Software Engineer

#707Earlier quoted context omitted.
Yep, can't upvote this enough. I would rather not even look at companies who have hiring process like the FAANG.
What? you don't want to review path finding algorithms for a job that involves HTML and CSS?

#708We are a lean 20 person engineering-focused team that values making the product process as streamlined as possible. We are hiring experienced engineers to help take our product to the next level. We love product-minded engineers that can own a feature across the frontend and backend, even if they're stronger at one side of that. Our tech stack is built from the ground up on Elixir/Phoenix, Postgres, React/Redux, and GraphQL.
After bootstrapping ourselves to profitability, we raised our seed round with Felicis Ventures, Village Global, Global Founders Capital, and notable angel investors including Elad Gil, Katie Stanton, and Avichal Garg: https://techcrunch.com/2019/06/03/distru-a-maker-of-supply-c...

#709We're a unique breed: a deep tech (4 PhDs), mission-driven (100,000 deaf/hard-of-hearing users relying on our work) and VC-funded startup (SV Angel, Initialized, Khosla), and we're doubling our team to 15.
Our goal is to improve how we humans connect & communicate with each other using human & artificial intelligence. First through using a patented multi-peer speech recognition technology app that empowers 450M deaf and hard-of-hearing people to have exceptionally accurate captions for any conversation they're a part of. That unique focus is because I (CEO/Founder) grew up in a Deaf family & witnessed how the world was not accessible for them, then cofounded Ava with my CTO Skinner, deaf since age 2.
Specifically, we're hiring makers (engs + designer) who want to be at the very beginning of a rocketship. All jobs are here: http://www.ava.me/jobs but these following 3 positions will be filled quickly (it's my #1 focus):
1) a Full-Stack Developer (~2-5+ years exp), with React and Node background, to take the lead on building out the Ava experience on the web. Really powerful B2C & B2B applications through it, with real-time & scalability challenges. Should care about all the details that makes a first experiences become magical for a new user, and committed to make a huge impact on society.
2) a Backend Developer (~2-5+ years exp) with DevOps, Node, Python skills as their strong suit. Will own designing and scaling Ava's AI infrastructure, supporting mission-critical algorithms for our users.
3) a Product Designer, exp. in B2C & B2B platforms, mobile & web. Open to animations, UI/UX. Will be working with deaf users & probably learning sign language as a result :) Huge role in leading redesign, branding & empowering our community - very active because it's often life-critical for them to use Ava.
Feel free to email me directly: thibault@ava.me if any question, or to apply here: http://www.ava.me/jobs I'll review HN applications personally!
