Vitally | Senior Javascript Engineer (First Hire) | New York | Onsite

Vitally.io is looking for a first engineering hire to join us before we go though Techstars this summer.

What we're looking for: An ideal teammate for us is a front-end focused senior developer who is quick learning and adaptable. We'd like you to initially own a good amount of our front-end and dive in where ever else is needed (back-end, devops, etc).

Our tech stack is evolving quickly, but we're building the front-end in React/Redux + Typescript, the backend in Node + Typescript w/ Postgres + Redis, and will be hosting on AWS. Experience with any of those technologies is a plus, but we're open to speaking with strong engineers who we know will pick things up quickly. Any experience building data-intensive applications is also a plus.

As we grow, you'll be able to take a significant leadership role within our engineering team. You'll also have the opportunity to be a member of the team as we go through the Techstars NYC summer session, working alongside some of the most promising startups and talented entrepreneurs in New York.

A little bit about us: Vitally is an early stage startup building an analytics platform to help Customer Success teams quantify and target their engagement. We're still in stealth mode, but we're backed by Techstars and are moving quickly.

Jamie (CEO) is a repeat entrepreneur with proven success as the former CTO/co-founder of Pathgather (another Techstars startup). Patrick (CTO) is an MIT engineer with experience managing high-value customer relationships with some of the largest banks and hedge funds in the world. We value transparency, diversity, giving back, and questioning convention and we're building a company that does the same. If that sounds interesting, we'd love to speak with you.

You can reach me at patrick@vitally.io

We provide new capabilities to consumers and retailers to assist in matching a consumer’s desired product with the correct or closest matching product based on visual similarity, given a photograph on the web or one taken on their cell phone.

GrokStyle was recently named one of the 100 most promising private AI companies globally by CB Insights (AI 100), and our work is based on award-winning computer graphics and machine learning research.

Engineers would be responsible for designing and managing APIs and services, building tools for high availability, continuous deployment, scaling, improving our system throughput and reducing hardware costs.

Skills we're looking for:

* Experience in production systems, involving both frontend and backend development, experience in building and scaling micro-services and APIs.

Coveo | JavaScript Developer | Montreal & Quebec City, Canada | Full-time, ONSITE or REMOTE

We're looking for programmers to join our team working on our new, cool JavaScript UI search page framework. Our goal is to create a framework that developers like you will love. We want to enable creation of great custom search experiences backed by our awesome index technology, and have fun doing it.

If you're curious, check out our dev documentation here (https://developers.coveo.com/display/public/JsSearchV1/JavaS...). You can even download and play with it, so you know what you're getting into. We primarily use (and love) Typescript to help grow our codebase without losing our sanity in addition to recent libraries and tools.

While we offer all the perks people come to expect of a job (great new offices, top of the line equipment, competitive salaries and insurance, unlimited cappucinos and snacks, nerf gun battles), we think the best part about working with us is simply being excited about going to work every day. On a day to day basis you'll continually face interesting challenges, have great autonomy and you'll be able to bring your ideas to the table knowing that your team genuinely wants to hear them.

Coveo is positioned as the top leader for Insight Engines in Gartner's 2017 Magic Quadrant (http://blog.coveo.com/coveo-leads-gartner-magic-quadrant-for...). We're growing quickly and hiring talented, passionate developers to join our worldclass team. Our Montreal offices are brand new (http://blog.coveo.com/coveo-montreal-finally-home/) and we've also rebuilt our entire Quebec City office to accomodate all our new hires in a great environment.
