Ask HN: Who is hiring? (October 2017)

We are a Melbourne based startup that is growing fast and is well funded for expansion. Cadmus is an online environment where assessment can be created by teachers and completed by students. It offers you a new way of conducting assessment, with no compromise on workload, academic integrity or student experience. This enables you to create the right assessment piece to achieve your graduate and learning outcomes.

We are looking for a software developer (mainly front-end) who can help us expand and scale the Cadmus platform as it reaches millions of University students around the world. Our platform is reliant on rich front-end applications which drives the entire product experience.

The requirements on these applications keep us on the edge of web standards and web APIs. Hence, we are looking for a React and front-end superstar. A talent for UI and UX design would be awesome! If you are willing, you can definitely dip your hands in our back-end Elixir code.

Tech: Elixir, Phoenix, Python, React, Redux, Apollo, GraphQL...

If you have a passion for the new declarative web and love building in React, come join us! You can email us at careers @ cadmus dot io. Let us know you have read this.

PS: We are also fans of the functional reactive programming paradigm (through Redux), and FP in general.

For one of our long-term clients (M.I.C.), we are searching for a dedicated developer that will work exclusively on improving their platform. We have developed a platform, in which customers can create and manage interaction campaigns by uploading their users and inviting them to participate. Invitations are sent by an interactive SMS (in nearby future e-mail or push notifications) and users participate by clicking on the personal link in the invite. As a result of that, a campaign is started in the browser. Participating users generate data and conversion. M.I.C offers real-time KPI reports that allow the customers to see results and track conversion.

WHAT YOU WILL DO

This position offers a high degree of freedom in terms of implementing new ideas and improvements. You will work on a variety of tasks related to our platform such as developing new and optimizing existing functionalities, maintaining and extending our API’s and integration with customer systems. You will also work on developing and maintaining our SAAS solution, including online onboarding, billing and customer management. Furthermore, you will optimize performance and scalability and create and check unit tests.

WHAT YOU NEED

* At least a BS degree in a related field * At least 3 years experience with professional programming and development, including 1 year experience with Python/Django * Knowledge of (X)HTML, XML, CSS, JavaScript, Ajax and related technologies * Preferably knowledge of and experience with Ansible * Excellent English language and communication skills

PLEASE NOTE - We are not able to offer VISA sponsorship for this specific position and can therefore only accept applicants with a valid EU work permit.

BENEFITS

* We offer you a place in our diverse, enthusiastic and highly technically oriented team of developers, where you get to teach and learn at the same time

* We provide you with the equipment of your choice, free lunch every day, snacks and unlimited freshly ground coffee

* We have flexible working hours and a possibility to occasionally work from home

* We encourage you to visit events and/or take courses to keep up-to-date and learn new skills

* And to top it off, what would work be like without fun? You could get your fair share at our regular company events and Friday beer & game afternoons, or by diving into the nostalgia of your childhood on our arcade machine

Do you see yourself in these words? Then we'd love to hear from you!
