Ask HN: Who is hiring? (July 2017)

Parse.ly | Success Engineers + Software Engineers | Remote | Full-Time

What's Parse.ly? We've built a real-time content measurement layer for the entire web. Our analytics platform helps digital storytellers at some of the web's best sites, such as Arstechnica, The New Yorker, TechCrunch, The Intercept, Mashable, and many more. In total, our analytics system handles over 65 billion monthly events from over 1 billion monthly unique visitors.

Parse.ly is a fully distributed team, as described here: https://blog.parse.ly/post/3203/the-how-and-why-of-parse-lys...

Our entire stack is in Python and JavaScript, and our team has innovated in areas related to real-time analytics, building some of the best open source tools for working with modern stream processing technologies. Our UX/design team has also built one of the best-looking dashboards on the planet, using AngularJS and d3.js. You can see some screenshots: http://parse.ly/tour?utm_campaign=hn201707

Our distributed team is best-in-class and we happily skip commutes by working out of our ergonomic home offices. Here's a photograph of mine running two full-screen Parse.ly dashboards on my monitors: https://flic.kr/p/v1NZ73

To see an example of how we work, check out the blog post, "Whatever It Takes": https://blog.parse.ly/post/46/?utm_campaign=hn201707

As for the roles available:

Success Engineer - At Parse.ly, we think code + communication = success. The goal of a Success Engineer: ensure our customers are delighted with our products, through the wise application of technical know-how, engineering magic, and strong communication skills. The full job posting for that role is available here: https://weworkremotely.com/jobs/4874-success-engineer

Software Engineer - Are you a more advanced programmer with interest in data engineering who wants to work with Python, Storm, Spark, Kafka, Elasticsearch, and petabyte-scale datasets? Or, are you a user experience programmer who wants to build beautiful dashboards and data visualizations, using JavaScript, d3.js, Swift (iOS), and similar tools? If either of these teams sound appealing, then please send a cover letter, CV/resume, and optionally links to projects or code, to the email address here: work@parsely.com.

For either role, when you email us, make sure to indicate which role you're interested in and that you're coming from this HN thread. Note that though Parse.ly is fully distributed team, we prioritize candidates in ET/CT/MT timezones (or close) and who have past experience working remotely.

Localeur | Front-end Developer | Austin, TX | Contract to hire | https://www.localeur.com

Localeur is a curated community of local insiders who want to help you experience local in their city. While review sites lack authenticity and local credibility, and travel guide books go out of date the moment they’re published, Localeur gives you a real look into what it’s like to be a local. If it’s not local, it’s not on Localeur.

Since launching Localeur in 2013, our mission has been to help people experience local wherever they go. We are passionate about helping people feel like they belong and experiencing the true culture of a city, rather than the tourist traps and chains. Quality, authenticity and integrity are paramount to us achieving this mission.

We are looking for a great JavaScript developer who is proficient with React.js. Your primary focus will be on developing user interface components and implementing them following well-known React.js workflows (such as Flux or Redux). You will ensure that these components and the overall application are robust and easy to maintain. You will coordinate with the rest of the team working on different layers of the infrastructure. Therefore, a commitment to collaborative problem solving, sophisticated design and quality product is important.

Please send any resumes and sample apps to moody@localeur.com

People.ai, Inc. | Engineering/Sales/Customer Support | SF | ONSITE | https://people.ai

People don’t quit their jobs, they quit their managers. Everyone has had a manager that makes them want to call in sick. Everyone has had a manager who regularly forces their team to chase their own tail doing meaningless work.

Why? Because most managers manage their teams blindly. They don't hire, coach and promote based on data. Instead, they make decisions based on their gut. These decisions are made because managers don’t have the data to make smarter, more informed decisions when it comes to managing.

Not anymore. At People.ai we’re helping managers make decisions about their team based on data, not intuition. We’re starting with sales teams because they’re a particularly notorious black box. No manager today can definitively say what makes a “top performer” better than a “low performer.” People.ai is solving this dilemma by making sales management transparent and building the world’s first predictive sales management platform, powered by AI.

People.ai was part of the YC S’16 batch, launched the product in July of this year and was the first company in the batch to raise a Series A. Less than three months after our launch we’re already being used by sales teams at 50+ blue chip companies including Rubrik, Gainsight, Mulesoft and Optimizely.

We have a 10+ person team and are actively looking for Senior Front-end and Back end Engineers to join us. Our team needs someone with full-stack/backend development experience as well as a deep background in Python, Linux, AWS, REST APIs and machine learning. Salesforce API experience is a plus!

Our Sales team is looking for Enterprise Account Executives and Sales Development Representatives. A background in on-demand/SaaS, CRM, SFA or marketing software sales is strongly preferred. You must have a proven record of consistently meeting and exceeding quota in a fast-paced, competitive sales environment.

Our Customer Success team is looking for a Customer Support Manager. This person will be responsible for managing customer support requests via email, chat and phone and helping to build a world-class customer support organization. Prior experience with Zendesk, Intercom, Jira, Salesforce Service Cloud, etc. is a plus!

This isn’t just another job. Your input will be incredibly important as we’re currently shifting from to a microservices architecture. You’ll have an opportunity to make a major impact on a number of our microservices and ML/big data infrastructure as we are turning our MVP into a massively scalable product. Find out what makes us special in this blog, We the People: Why You Should Join People.ai.

Work out of our SOMA/San Francisco offices. We offer a competitive salary with equity, health benefits, a cool company culture, lunches, free snacks and drinks. No remote applicants.

Join us as we work towards quantifying people management!
