Hi all, As you're planning your New Year's resolutions, consider: if you could work anywhere, what would you do? - Wouldn't you want to work towards really making the world a better place? - Wouldn't you want to work with a top-notch team alongside some of the brightest engineers in the industry? - Wouldn't you want to work on solving interesting problems that haven't been solved before? --- At Khan Academy, I truly…

"Please lead with the location of the position..."

Sorry about that, can't edit my post any more.

I just want to say that I am very appreciative of the quality content found on khanacademy.org. You folks are basically teaching quality online courses without tuition fees. You are helping people around the world who do not have the resources to attend school. Education is the best path for progress in suffering societies.

We are still in stealth mode but are getting ready to launch in the coming months and are getting ready to grow quickly as we are in the process of additional fund raising, so if you have an interest in any of these topics and want to make a real impact in how these problems are solved then we want to hear from you.

Our stack is Django/Python, Postgres, Redis, Angular and Salt, but are also looking to expand this as we expand the solution. We believe in, and have a strong interest in, constantly learning, so if you have any great ideas about new tools that we should be using then we will certainly listen.

Kira Talent (https://www.kiratalent.com) - Toronto, Canada

At Kira Talent, we help employers spot top talent earlier in the hiring process through timed video interviews.

A bit about us:

  * we’re a small team (you’d be #13), based in the heart of downtown Toronto

  * we’re well funded (we just raised a $2M seed round) and have had paying clients since day 1 of the company 

  * we’re hiring all types of devs -- mobile, frontend, backend, analytics 

  * we think even enterprise software can be beautiful, and pride ourselves on our design 

  * every single one of our developers have committed code within their first day at work; some within their first hour
Here’s some stuff we’ve been working on lately:

  * building infrastructure to allow us to scale our video recording and streaming

  * re-building the UI-heavy sections of our product using AngularJS

  * designing and creating our mobile suite for both job candidates and employers alike 

  * presenting analytics data captured in our product to the end user, and our team internally
We mostly use Python/Django, JavaScript (jQuery, AngularJS), MySQL (and some MongoDB), but you’d be free to choose your own tools and libraries. If this sounds fun, let’s chat! My name is Konrad, I'm the co-founder/CTO, and you can send me a note at konrad@kiratalent.com. :)
