We give travelers free airport parking by renting out their cars to others. Everything's insured up to $1m. We're funded by General Catalyst, Softbank Capital, Brian Chesky, Ryan Seacrest, and others.
We're looking for a Lead Front-end Developer. You'll be developing our desktop and mobile sites as well as internal tools. As the front end lead, you'll have the choice of which technologies to call on for projects. Currently we have a Django-backed site, and want to expand our front end work.

Responsibilities:
- develop new and existing features for our current consumer site, which uses Django templates and Bootstrap.

- knowledge of mobile web constraints and ways to optimize for them

#87Rinse is a fast-growing Technology-Enabled Dry Cleaning and Laundry Delivery Service based in the design district in San Francisco. This is a chance to join a 'rocket ship' startup pre-venture capital. We're currently hiring people of all types:
* We'd like to hire a Senior Software Developer to join our small team and build mobile apps for our customers and drivers, sophisticated internal processing tools, and a robust and polished customer-facing web presence to further burnish our brand. Our stack is built on Django, with a healthy amount of HTML5 and Backbone.js, but we're more interested in hiring someone with mature development practices, mentorship experience, and strong analytical capability. Knowledge of any new tools will come easily to the right person.
* As this is an operationally-focused business, we're also looking for a 'Swiss-Army Knife' generalist to join our high-caliber team and own whatever parts of our operations, marketing, or social media need attention on a given day. This is a chance for a smart person to join a tech startup in a critical role, even if that person isn't a software developer.
* We're also looking to hire a Director of Marketing to help us accelerate growth as we optimize our operations. With a great domain, solid product, tech-savvy customer base, and growing ad presence, this is a great opportunity for a consumer-focused marketing professional. A job description is at https://rinse-cdn.s3.amazonaws.com/assets/docs/Rinse%20-%20D...
* Last but definitely not least, we're hiring individuals with a clean driving record for part-time evening work delivering and picking-up laundry and dry cleaning as a Rinse Valet. This is a great way for students to pick up some extra cash a couple of nights a week. Apply via https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1kWZYu1kg1r8kxdDC9ObKdgQP_1N...
Interested? Email jobs@rinse.com for more information.

#88Frontend Engineer
We're one of the oldest PaaS's out there, with support for PHP/Ruby/Java/node.js and both AWS and Azure. Earlier this year we launched a brand new user experience from the ground-up -- a new website and a completely new client-side interface. As a Frontend Engineer, you'd be working primarily on the latter.
The UI is written using angular.js served up by a lightweight node.js api proxy server. We use mocha/selenium web driver for our tests and only accept green builds via travis to be merged to master. Through our "eybot" on slackhq, we deploy stable code to production multiple times a day.
The UX engineering team at Engine Yard consists of 3 UI designers and 4 engineers (including myself). We're spread out across 8 timezones (Dublin through San Francisco), so experience working in a distributed team is key.
You'll get:
* Competitive salary
* Full medical, dental and vision benefits
* 25 paid days off per year
* 401(k)
* We take care of your phone bill
* Paid travel to conferences
Must haves: * A passion for writing great software to solve real problems for real people
* Demonstrated experience building complex client-side applications in
JavaScript, preferably with angular.js
* Experience working in a distributed team
* The strong belief that a feature isn't finished until it's tested and, where
appropriate, documented
* A fantastic sense of sarcasm
* Ability to travel occasionally (at least once or twice a year)
* Somewhere between UTC and UTC-8
Great to have: * Thorough understanding of git
* Experience building REST apis
* Experience with multiple languages (and an understanding of their tradeoffs)
* Previously worked at a startup
