Ask HN: Who is hiring? (August 2016)

Didn't realize the email field itself wasn't public.

Uken is looking for talented developers to help us build amazing mobile games. In particular, we have positions available for:

Backend Developers

Help us scale our backend to enable a million concurrent players by creating the infrastructure and services (SOA) that underly all of our games. Primary tech is Rails and MySQL, but you'll be working with many more such as Docker, Redis, NSQ, websockets, Hadoop, Spark and InfluxDB.

Software Developers

Join one of our game teams to build something that millions of people will play and love. Primary tech is either Javascript (HTML5) or Unity.

About Uken

We are one of the largest independent game studios in Canada, with hundreds of thousands of players a day across mobile and Facebook.

Employees quit managers, not companies. If you've ever worked at a dysfunctional, hyper-growth startup, or a big company wrecked by politics, you've experienced how bad management can make work miserable. It’s crazy managers aren’t given more help. We're changing that by helping with the fundamentals of good management through software.

We're in 500 Startups right now, have a functioning product with hundreds of paying customers, and want to bring great design and experience to our validated and growing MVP. We’re looking for you to take the lead on designing Lighthouse to be a world-class product, while we focus on sales, marketing, and the back end.

### You:

If you're excited and ready to take the drivers seat on the direction of a product from design through implementation, this is the perfect role for you (with the big equity to match). You’ll have the chance to bring all your skills together as part of a team that’s customer driven and excited to make more people love their jobs. It's a mission you can feel great about working on every day.

You’re an awesome fit for this role if you...

-> Take great pride in your work and obsess over getting the details right.

-> Always look for places to simplify, whether that’s removing a button, or making 30 lines of code work with 5.

-> You love using funnels & analytics, as well as talking to customers, to ensure what you design & build is best for customers.

### Tech stack currently includes (open to changes you advocate for): Rails, Capistrano, haml/scss, bootstrap, jQuery, Postgres, Stripe, GCal API

* Interested in the role? Email Jason at GetLighthouse dot com mentioning Hacker News in the subject line. Please, no recent code school grads.

If you like big data problems, visualization, scaling or having the freedom to hack - we'd be a great place for you. We're a small stable team, looking for self starters. My daily goal for our team is to always end the day making it better.

As an engineer founder, I'd say our greatest strength is our ability to listen to our customers and build a great product that solves their real problem. I started by answering every phone call and building features after each call. From there we've grown rather quickly but at a stable clip. We never raised money because we've never needed the money and I've always wanted to keep control over the direction and pace of growth.

After 6 years, I could never be happier with this decision. Our development environment is primarily RoR and JS.

If you are a former LivingSocial or RevolutionHealth member you'd know me and I believe appreciate our stack. We make heavy use of Elasticsearch, MySQL, Redis and Nginx+LUA. We're running most of our servers in AWS. Did I mention we're a small team, you'd have the opportunity to play a huge role.

[Edit/Location] - Severna Park, Maryland nicely between Baltimore and Washington and super close to Annapolis.
