Ask HN: Who is hiring? (May 2016)

You know the drill. This Sunday you'll call your mother, or if she lives nearby, pay her a visit. She'll passive aggressively suggest lifestyle alterations that will likely lead to the creation of a grandchild in her life, and you'll smile and nod. Why not change the conversation this year? Tell her about that amazing job opportunity in the field of information security that you'll be applying for so she can be proud and perplexed at the same time! You can stop scrolling. You've found that opportunity with NCC Group!

If you’re a tinkerer, you enjoy breaking more than building, or someone who wonders “why” and ends up down the rabbit hole 36 hours later with a disassembled air conditioning unit surrounding them... we’d love to hear from you! Our process welcomes those with years of experience, as well as those with little to no direct experience in what we do.

The bottom line: if you love security and research, NCC Group just may be a perfect fit for you.

What do we do exactly? Penetration testing, security analysis, and cutting-edge research into current technologies and attacks (breaking things). You spend most of your day thinking about security systems and how they can break. You get to be creative and have a lot of freedom to be clever while learning new technologies at a very fast pace. Engagements are usually 2-4 weeks long and in a year you will be exposed to 15-20 products and technology stacks. Your work will typically initiate person-months of security improvements in products millions of people use. You will have access to senior engineers/architects and your findings/ideas will be heard by senior decision makers. You will have enormous impact in making the software people use safer.

All of our consultants are also security researchers, with dedicated research time. Not too shabby!

Phenomen Films is an independent film production company currently working on DAU, a film project conceived and directed by Ilya Khrzhanovskiy. Shot over several years in Russia and the Ukraine, DAU is now post-producing in London. The setting is 1938-1968 in the Soviet Union. We have 700 hours of material (all shot on 35mm) out of which we are making feature films, TV series and a slate of science and arts documentaries, as well as a multi-media project.

For the media project, we have been working on a web application to let viewers explore the raw, unedited footage (using time-based annotations compiled by a team of analysts) and interact in real-time with other viewers. The footage and annotations are stored using a slightly-customised instance of an open-source video archive platform, built with Django, PostgreSQL and friends.

We're looking for a frontend (or front-leaning full-stack) developer to focus on, well, the frontend: iterating on the current design, informed by user feedback, towards an immersive and intuitive navigation system. You'll need strong web frontend development skills (HTML, CSS, ES6). Some UX design experience would be very helpful. One or more of the following would be great, but not at all essential:

* Experience with Django and PostgreSQL (for the archive platform)

* Experience with search, multimedia, real-time communications, or recommendation systems

* Experience with data analysis in Python using pandas, scipy, and friends

* Some Linux sysadmin skills

* Strong opinions about any of the above

This could be a full-time or part-time position, depending on your situation and availability. Most, if not all, of the work will need to be carred out on-site.
