My personal understanding is that Thumbtack only wants candidates with Ivy League educations, and that they're dismissive of everyone else. I have heard they have difficulty filling their positions due to this. Is that accurate?

I can confirm. They have a very smug and elitist attitude. They also engage in some pretty shady business practices (just google them).

Hi, I like the fact that you do tons of open source contributions. So as current student, I'd like to ask if are hiring or planning to hire any interns/new grads?

ORIGIN | London ONSITE | Full-time

We're a small fintech startup disrupting the $4.7tn bond market. The software we're building connects banks with bond issuers, acting primarily as an information platform and morphing into a transactional platform over time. We started in the Barclays Techstars program, won the BBVA Open Talent 2015 and Oliver Wyman's Fintech Pitch.

We're a Python/Django stack hosted on AWS. Data security and privacy is a big issue for us given our clients are banks.

Looking for a Senior Python Developer or Full-Stack Developer to own large parts of the tech/product. You'll have scope to try new technologies as you see fit. We're a small team of 6, 8 nationality, 6 languages spoken, lots of banter.

Reach out to me directly at rob@originmarkets.com if this sounds interesting!

Software Engineer | Austin, TX | OwnLocal (YC W2010)

Positions: Senior Software Engineer, Junior Software Engineer

TL;DR: Full-time, local only. RoR, Go, JavaScript, SQL, ElasticSearch but we think you can learn these things on the job if you're competent. We treat employees like humans and pay market rates.

Our web apps are Ruby on Rails but recently more and more of our stack has been in Go. We've built a big API on ElasticSearch which serves billions of requests per month.

We're interested in computer vision, OCR, speech recognition and video transcoding because these things are all part of our bread and butter -- small business marketing.

OwnLocal is dedicated to having a quality work environment for everyone. On our engineering team we value collaboration over competition, respect work-life balance and solve problems without blaming people. We have a "no assholes" policy. We're big enough to be stable but small enough that everyone still knows everyone else in the company. We pay market rates, $90k and up (for a senior software engineer) depending on experience and have great health insurance.
