Coffee Meets Bagel | Engineering Manager, Backend | San Francisco | ONSITE Full-Time https://coffeemeetsbagel.com/jobs/

Hey I’m Karim, CTO at Coffee Meets Bagel. I’m looking to hire an engineering manager for my backend team.

Our stack is Python, Go, C*, Redis, Elastic Search, PG, Spark, …

There are currently 5 engineers on the team. This is a management role, but it’s still hands on.

Coffee Meets Bagel is a dating app that focuses on quality over quantity. We're growing fast and looking for great engineers to help build new features and scale out our platform globally.

We have a super fun office near Union Square right off the BART line and you'd get to work with a bunch of very smart, driven, passionate, and fun people all dedicated to helping our users find love! https://jobs.lever.co/coffeemeetsbagel/70425a5d-b1a1-44c8-88...

PS: Also looking for an iOS engineer https://jobs.lever.co/coffeemeetsbagel/4f404064-3c3e-4acf-a8...

The fact that this is common means nothing - what kind of argument is that... law breaking and human exploitation is also fairly common - does that mean it OK to do it?

> "Must be willing to work extended hours and weekends as needed". I also had some emergency situations where I had to fix something or help someone - and it is normal for me - but I can count that using fingers of one hand during a year.

What is NOT normal and should instantly raise red lights is that this is part of job description. Stop pretending it OK to do this in a company that is managed properly it should not take place.

Iterable (https://iterable.com) - San Francisco, CA - ONSITE

Come join Iterable. We're 36 people bringing the growth hacking tools that consumer internet companies like Google/Twitter/Facebook build internally to other large-scale companies. We aim to build the best user growth engine on the planet. It's crazy how messaging and email usage are changing, but the technology and capabilities haven't caught up to the 21st century.

Our team of hackers and thinkers is from quant finance/Twitter/Google/Yahoo/Zynga/Khan Academy/Palantir/CMU/MIT, (we built large parts of Twitter's growth systems). One of our top level goals is to build a uniquely fun and growth oriented company culture. Knowledge sharing in any capacity is highly valued here -- are you interested in prediction markets or PGP encryption? Do you enjoy teaching posture techniques or purely functional data structures to others? We pair program, design together, and generally create a learn-and-teach environment here. This is an opportunity to join a super-fast growing startup, in a huge market and with a great team, while it's still early.

If you're interested in coming on board, you can help with some challenges we face:

  - Scale our messaging API
  - Design and write performant, beautiful, asynchronous interfaces 
  - Write software to build machine learned user models 
  - Make data visualizations for our email and user data 
  - Design an immutable deployment infrastructure for our platform

Some aspects of our culture that make us different:

  - We are all very focused on self improvement 
  - Our company has egalitarian and transparent values (work when you want, on what you want) 
  - We are chill & empathetic people 
  - The company is completely transparent

Technologies you'll work with:

  - Scala
  - Elasticsearch
  - Postgres
  - Redis
  - ES6
  - AngularJS
  - Play Framework
  - RabbitMQ

You'll get to work with us at our new office at 3rd & Harrison in San Francisco. If this sounds like an interesting and fun opportunity for you, please email us at aXRzYXVuaXhzeXN0ZW0raG5AaXRlcmFibGUuY29t or take a look at our open positions here: https://iterable.com/company/careers
