Kitty Hawk | http://kittyhawk.aero | Mountain View, CA | Full Time | ONSITE

Kitty Hawk is a Silicon Valley technology company dedicated to moving people more quickly and efficiently through personal flight. Our engineers, scientists, hackers, and creatives have invented and innovated technical and regulatory solutions for self driving cars, human powered helicopters, revolutionary wind power vehicles, and other world record-setting aviation achievements. We break stuff, in a good way, because we're here to get things done and help humanity push forward. Join us, let's have some fun.

As a member of Kitty Hawk’s R&D team, you will work on making our software systems reliable enough for flight and nimble enough for fast-paced prototyping efforts. We design, build, test and fly in rapid iteration, so you’ll be energetic, adaptable and a fast learner who can make sound engineering judgments with limited information. You will be responsible for finding ways to break (and fix) our software, and for making it build and deploy as fast and seamlessly as possible.

Engineers: We have always maintained a small, but high-caliber engineering team, and we are now looking to make a couple of additions to the same. We are hiring for mobile, backend & front-end. We are tech stack agnostic. We would prefer to have a look at your GitHub repo or a mobile app that you have built, over your academic/educational qualification. We are a founding team of engineers, and understand that good engineering is part science part art, we would like to provide you the tools for the science and the time for the art. We are expanding the team to build the next version of our true multi-tenant platform with a few thousand events happening per second.

Data Scientists: We wish to push to edge of what is possible, and advance the field of routing problems itself. If Travelling thief, Knapsack, Capacity planning and other optimisation problem excite you, we are looking for you. We are team of PhD scientists and engineers with background in stats, working on building faster & more scalable implementation of NP-hard problems, or even a combination of a few NP-Hard problems. While we have pizza, beer, whisky, drones, oculus rifts, raspberry PIs on the house, the biggest perk we provide you is a remarkable team. We would love to spend our most productive years, around people with great intellect and unbridled enthusiasm. In the spirit of keeping you at your productive best, we give you free fully furnished housing with internet, food & laundry taken care of, and your choice of tech gear.

Looks awesome, are you hiring data scientists?

Unfortunately not yet, though maybe next year. But we do offer a $1729 referral award if you refer a fullstack or iOS engineer that we end up hiring.

That's a very particular amount!

R3 CEV | http://r3cev.com | London, UK | ONSITE R3 is designing a next-gen distributed database in which the nodes in the peer-to-peer network making it up don't trust each other. Then we're building financial apps on top, because finance is the industry that can benefit from this technology the most. Many startups in this space are building on top of the Nakamoto blockchain algorithm, but we don't actually use a Bit…

Chance to work with Mike Hearn and the R3 team? This should be top of the page.

Jupiter Technologies Corp. | Chicago, IL | Full-Time and Fall/Winter/Summer Internships | Onsite

Early stage stealth startup seeks extremely-talented founding engineers to help build a new gateway to the internet. First version launching soon. Founder has a demonstrably strong track record in perhaps the most competitive quantitative field there is, and, in his new field, he expects to win.

You will be working from a small office in Lincoln Park, right by the zoo and park.

Looking for a winner. Someone with high standards, high ambition, and the judgement to know what’s important and what’s not. Track record and attitude much more important than pedigree. The more experience building world-class software the better, but junior candidates will also be considered.

Technologies: Kotlin, Swift, Typescript, and AWS.

Also hiring software-engineering interns year-round. You will work hard and learn a lot. It is our purpose that, by the end of your time at Jupiter, you will have become an excellent young programmer.

Love of language, books, and natural language processing all plusses.

Email resume to austin@jupiter.ai. Next step is phone screen and then an interview at office.
