Sourcegraph ( https://sourcegraph.com ) | Software Engineer | San Francisco, CA | REMOTE, Salary: $100-200K + equity Sourcegraph is the best way to read and understand code. As a programmer, you spend hours every day trying to answer simple questions like "How do I use this library?", "What functions already exist?", and "What's going on in this changeset?" Sourcegraph makes exploring the world's code as painless as…

Hey, not interested in applying for a job but would love to talk with someone on the engineering team about how the product works. I'm starting a blog about source code (already got a few gists up at https://gist.github.com/CarlMungazi), so this is an area I'm interested in.

Blockchain Project | Backend Dev, Frontend Dev, Application Security Engineer, DevOps | Remote | Full-time | $160k-$200k Hi! we are a couple of fellow HNers launching a new cryptocurrency-based project. We don’t even have the name yet! We’re in ideation and architecting phase and we’ll be building from the ground up a project similar to funfair.io, but without the ICO part. This means we'll need help with everything!…

Is it a new cryptocurrency, or a new project based on an existing cryptocurrency?

Good question. We'll build on top of the king (BTC) or queen (ETH). We could start with plain BTC or ETH to speed things ups, and issue an ERC20 (ETH) or RSK-based token (BTC) down the road.

But we're not into the pump and dump thing and we want to be 200% compliant. So we'll have to analyse this move carefully. We're also very open to new ideas and input from the new members.

India is going through revolutionary stage with head of the state referring to terms like Make In India. Its a golden period to put into test your entrepreneur skills to test. Its a right time to begin a startup in this developing country. According to me as per the question right people who would be hiring qualified and efficient work force would be this startups who are eager to prove their metal to the world and with the revolution of social media going hand by hand. Its also the right time to use the power of social media to its maximum and Instagram being the front runner in social media phenomenon would be the best choice to promote your startups and as the success of instagram totally depend on count of the followers. Its indeed a smart choice to add few followers by buying through legitimate sites like https://buylikesservices.com/

Librato/Papertrail/TraceView | Sr Data Engineer | SF / US-REMOTE | Full-time | https://www.librato.com/jobs

We're looking for a full-time software engineer to take a key role in building the large-scale distributed systems that power Solarwinds Cloud products: Papertrail (hosted logs), Librato (time-series metrics) and TraceView (APM and distributed tracing).

We’re a small team so everyone has the opportunity to have a big impact. We’ve built our platform out largely on Java8 Dropwizard services, a handful of Golang services and some C++ where performance is critical. We leverage Kafka as our main service bus, Cassandra for long term storage, our in-house stream processing framework for online analytics, and we rely on Zookeeper as a core part of intra/inter-service coordination. Our data pipeline pushes millions of messages a second and tens of terabytes of logs per day.

All team members, whether local in San Francisco or remote, commit code to Github, communicate over Slack and Hangouts, push code to production via our ChatOps bot, and run all production applications on AWS. We also use an array of best-breed SaaS applications to get code to production quickly and reliably. We are a team that is committed to a healthy work/life balance.

Papertrail/Librato/TraceView are wholly owned by SolarWinds Inc. so you get the benefits of a small startup, with the backing of a big company so there is no worry about the next round of funding. SolarWinds offers competitive bonus and matching 401k programs that create an attractive total compensation package.

This is an example of some of the technology we build and work with on a regular basis: http://www.heavybit.com/library/blog/streamlining-distribute....
