SkyCircuits Ltd | http://www.skycircuits.com/ | Salisbury, UK [ONSITE] We specialise in manned and unmanned aircraft operations and technology. Our business is rapidly expanding in one of the most exciting and technically challenging areas of aerospace: that of unmanned aviation. As well as our core business iterating on (probably?) Europe's best selling commercial UAV autopilot, we also take on a wide variety of fan…

I really can't understand how Python and F# can be in the same role.

Top secret black magic in F#, generic GUI-and-system code in C#, user-facing app-specific stuff in IronPython? (IronPython possibly taking advantage of some kind of REPL and/or hot reloading to provide quick iteration for the developers. Also maybe gives the option of end-user extensibility.)

YesGraph (YC W15) https://www.yesgraph.com Full Time, Redwood City, CA

YesGraph helps companies grow through our social graph analysis API. We’re hiring for our data team.

It turns out that most of the work in machine learning and data science is around managing and scaling data. So we’re going to focus on developing this talent in house: we’ll hire smart full stack engineers and train them to get better at building data systems at scale. This opportunity to learn and level up is unparalleled.

There are a few dimensions here:

  - scaling data infrastructure
  - managing distributed systems
  - manipulating and managing data
  - acquiring, cleaning, and modeling data from 3rd party APIs and crawling
  - applying machine learning algorithms, including some math to know why
  - software engineering and systems design
It’s good to have some familiarity with our environment to hit the ground running. We write code in Python, deploy on Heroku, and use Postgres, Redis, and AWS data stores. We use the python data and machine learning libraries like numpy, scipy, pandas, and scikit-learn.

TrueCar | Santa Monica, CA - San Francisco, CA - Austin, TX | Full Time

TrueCar is hiring Rails, Python, mobile (iOS and Android), and devops engineers in Santa Monica, San Francisco, and Austin. We're also hiring designers.

We acquired the talent of quite a few Carwoo (YCS09) alums a little over a year ago.

We've been around for 10 years and went public 1 year ago. The company has big plans for the coming years and is looking for good developers to help us grow.

See http://careers.truecar.com for the full scoop.

We're using Rails and Python (Flask) to serve out all kinds of APIs as well as consumer-facing web experiences and internal tools.

Let's see; what else?

* We prefer you work with us in-person in Santa Monica, San Francisco, or Austin. Remote definitely considered for the right candidates, but you must be based in the United States. We'll handle most visa situations.

* Benefits are exceptional: health premiums are 100% paid for (not only for you, but your whole family), we match your 401k (up to 3% of your contributions), and give stock options and performance bonuses. We also pay for your gym membership (up to $50/month) and have catered lunches every Wednesday.

* Our Santa Monica HQ is right by the beach and Third Street Promenade, so expect fresh air and plenty of food options. Our SF office is right off the Montgomery BART station with 360 degree views of downtown and the bay.

* A meaningful subset of some of the technologies we use: Ruby on Rails, Python, Flask, Redis, MySQL, Hadoop, and Elasticsearch (the whole ELK stack).

* VISAS are handled and REMOTE options are available under the right circumstances.

Send an email to me (Josh) (jgo AT truecar.com) with your resume and/or GitHub profile. Even if you're not applying but just have questions, drop me a line.

Private Internet Access | West Hollywood, CA or REMOTE | Full-Stack Ruby and JavaScript Engineers

https://www.privateinternetaccess.com/

We're one of the world's leading VPN service providers and are looking to grow our team with people who care about privacy and freedom. We are focusing on improving the entire customer experience of our product and service, everything from the website, customer portal, internal tools, to our VPN clients.

While we're looking for well-rounded full-stackers, we have a couple of different focus areas:

* Ruby generalists who are intimately familiar with Rails

* Front-end JavaScript engineers who have experience with client-side frameworks like React and Flux

Our stack, including infrastructure and deployment tools, is completely Ruby-based. Our desktop VPN clients are built with Ruby and web technologies. Our ideal candidates should have extensive experience with one or more of the following:

* Payments provider integration and subscription management (e.g., Stripe, PayPal, Amazon, etc.)

* Performance optimization of the site itself, database schema and queries, etc.

* Affiliate program implementation and third-party integrations

* Cross-platform (Mac, Windows, Linux) app development using web technologies (Titanium, node.js, Electron/Atom, etc.)

We're a remote team (unless you happen to be based in the LA area, in which case you'd want to come work from our beautiful office in West Hollywood hills), and all of our collaboration happens over Slack and Trello, with the occasional email.

Email jobs@privateinternetaccess.com with your resume and/or links to projects you've worked on, a link to your GitHub (or some other site where we can see your code), and what makes you interested in our company. Don't forget to mention you're from HN!

Montefiore Health System | Full Time | NY Onsite

Part Hospital part EDU, Montefiore is looking for Mac SysAdmins in the NYC area.

http://jobs.mdoes.com (Desktop Analyst - pardon the HR-ness, and we don't actually use Remedy...)

This is a job you can grow in; I was able to open-source a good amount of code, (including contributions to munki and autopkg,)

spoke at conferences like PSU MacAdmins, and the boss and I both spoke at the MacTech Conference.

If you're as maniacal as I am about the devops mindset and sharing what you know, this may be for you.

(There's iOS-related and regular customer service tasks as well, but mostly you'd be sheilded from having to be reactive.)

Major aspects of this working environment include:

- Customers you'll respect, who have enough self-confidence to reciprocate

- Coworkers that want to work hard and make you look good

- A boss and leadership that give you room while challenging your ambition

- Benefits like... working at a hospital, and a college. Every week you earn ~10 hours off.

We're hoping you like the idea of making a difference with us. No ping pong, no rock band.

Go home at 5. Take the generous time off. Have the resources to experiment and reach your potential.

For the tool-builders doing keyword searches: sure, there's a good amount of django, flask, and (py-)objective-c.

But we're also getting the job done with puppet, munki, and autopkg. If you (or anybody you) know might be interested,

please reach out: @sacrilicious on twitter, Allister Banks on linkedin, Allister on macadmins Slack, and abanks@montefiore.org
