Hopper | Multiple Engineering - (Remote) | Montreal, Toronto, Boston, NYC, 100% remote | Full-time, Salary + Options

Hopper is a mobile first travel company aimed at making it simple and stress free for users to book travel. We predict Hotel and Airline prices, and help customers optimize for price by advising them when to book, and when not to book.

Amongst a range of products built to reduce the stress and complexity involved in travel, we, for example, back our price predictions by offering users the option to freeze a specific price (we cover the difference if the price doesn't drop quite as far as we predicted). We've been helping users who are forced to travel during these challenging times by scaling out capacity for our "Cancel for any Reason" product, and are gradually rolling out other products in a similar vein.

We've raised 70m in funding in May, and are well situated to survive the pandemic. We're looking for mid or senior engineers, for multiple roles; apply directly on our site

[REMOTE] Platform.sh is seeking a Customer Support Engineer This position will be responsible for assessing the nature of product or service issues and resolving support problems for customers and partners through support tickets, live chat, and occasional voice calls. Don’t let the word “Support” fool you - this is not a typical call center role. Our customers are technically sophisticated and once a question gets to us search engines have failed to provide an answer. On any given day, you’ll be applying your knowledge of Linux with technologies like MySQL, DNS, CDNs, SSL, Redis, various programming languages, replication, integration with other systems and much more. Expect to learn something new every day.

Successful employees will collaborate with other team members, meet deadlines and test new ideas, tools, and tactics. We are looking for motivators and go-getters who will improve our processes, our products and ourselves. As one of our Cloud Support Engineers, you are our front line; when our customers think of how great Platform.sh is, they think of you.

This role is permanent and full time, 5 days a week including Saturdays and Sundays as 2 other weekly days off will be allocated

Qualifications 3+ years combined of: Linux system administration Web development using PHP, Python, Ruby or Go. (However, this is not primarily a programming job) Experience using git Managing DNS Functional knowledge of TLS and encryption Demonstrating exceptional communication skills to provide clear and empathetic customer support

We are a worldwide distributed team and are looking for a candidate who can perform well working remotely. To be an effective performer as a CSE here at Platform.sh, you’ll need to be able to effectively collaborate across time zones while operating with a high level of independence and autonomy.

Plasmic | Bay Area | Full-time, Remote | https://www.plasmic.app/

We are an early stage software startup funded by NEA and other esteemed investors. We are creating a visual builder for React - something that is as easy to use as a design tool like Sketch/Figma (which you can also import from!) but builds production-ready React components. We want to fix design/development collaboration and simplify product development.

We have an intimate team of 5 (tech leads from Google, Microsoft, Facebook), of which 3 have PhDs (MIT, UW), and 3 have previously launched successful startups.

We're looking for another engineer to join the core team. The only skill requirement is React, but generally we are seeking engineers with at least a couple years of experience. Background in building complex tools, deep frontend work, compilers, or distributed systems are pluses!

If you're interested, please let us know - we would love to hear from you! hiring@plasmic.app

We are located in Reichenbach im Kandertal, a small ski town in the Bernese Oberland (ten minutes to Adelboden ski area, 30 minutes to Interlaken, 30 minutes to Bern).

Our current team is small: one frontend engineer, one devops/backend engineer (me), and the electrical engineer who built the initial application. The practical challenge right now is to transform the current, non-OOP, primarily PHP application into a modern, extensible, and manageable tool for our users and for future developers. We are looking for someone with a strong architectural background and experience with PHP web applications. You and I will have an opportunity to define much of the direction and technologies we will adopt or modify.

Most of the team speaks Swiss German, but I am a native English speaker and we use English for technical discussions.
