Geckoboard is used by thousands of businesses to build TV Dashboards that help drive growth and focus teams, by taking the complexity out of connecting their data and making their data easy to understand data at a glance.

We recently completely rebuilt the way we bring data into Geckoboard with a new integrations platform written entirely in Go (Golang).

We now have ambitious plans to expand our platform, from supporting completely different kinds of integrations, to adding transparent, content-aware caching to all API calls, as well as capturing rich telemetry about the execution of our queries and using it to drive scheduling decisions for keeping all metrics up-to-date.

We’re looking for Backend Go Developers to help us do just that. Based from our London office, you'll be joining a friendly team with great people in an environment with empowered engineers, flexible working conditions, and a focus on skill development.

If you’re excited about working on distributed systems and database technologies at scale, we’d love to hear from you. Find more about Geckoboard and the role here: https://goo.gl/41gySJ

If you’re interested or have any questions get in touch with Monique (people@geckoboard.com) or apply directly at https://goo.gl/41gySJ

# Who we are

We're a not-for-profit team that builds open-source educational software for communities with limited or no access to the Internet. We believe in the transformative power of learning, and are passionate about social justice and breaking down barriers that prevent people from reaching their full potential.

We started 5 years ago with KA Lite (https://learningequality.org/ka-lite/), an offline-installable platform bundling Khan Academy content and our own student tracking tools, which is being used in nearly 200 countries and territories.

We're now in the process of releasing our second-generation platform, Kolibri (https://learningequality.org/kolibri/), which empowers users to create, curate, share, and learn from diverse forms of openly licensed content, both online and offline. We're building tools for authoring videos and exercises, an app ecosystem for embedding and distributing HTML5 educational bundles, features for discovering and communicating with other devices peer-to-peer over a local network, interfaces and web-based visualizations for exploring student data, and systems for motivating, engaging, and guiding learners. On the backend, we use Python/Django, and on the frontend we use Vue.js and (in one project) Backbone.js.

We recently received significant funding from Google.org to support our work (https://www.google.org/our-work/education/learning-equality/), and our team has doubled from 10 to 20 full-time staff in the past year. We're now building out further to support new initiatives, including a project for refugee education with UNHCR, and to continue to build towards our longer-term vision. It's an exciting period of growth, both for our team and for our impact, and there are lots of ways you could make a difference!

# Who you are

You care deeply about making the world a better place, believe in the power of learning, strive to promote equality, and resonate with our statement of core values (https://learningequality.org/about/values/). You love to build things, and like to think carefully about how best to serve the needs of a diverse set of users.

Envoy | All types of software engineering jobs | San Francisco, CA and distributed | Full-time | https://envoy.com

We're on a mission to create the office of the future and visitor management is just the beginning. We already launched our second product (Deliveries).

We’re building a world where you know instantly when packages are delivered; where your office unlocks securely and automatically when you arrive; where you can book a meeting room simply by walking through the door.

We have 1/3rd of our team working full-time remotely but continental US time zones are preferred so we can easily collaborate.

Our stack is built on Ruby&Rails, PostgreSQL, Redis, Elixir, JavaScript (Ember, React Native), and a few more things. We’re currently hosted on Heroku with some AWS (mostly Lambda) though we are constantly reevaluating as we scale.

We value being a top-notch organization with a strong engineering-driven culture, and have the same high standards with our code, systems, and people. We value learning and growth (and not being bored) and hire diverse, well-rounded, communicative people we can envision being friends with and trusting.

You can get more info on our jobs page https://envoy.com/jobs/ Or just apply to https://goo.gl/GEy3JE and we’ll make sure to get back to you.

Redwood City, CA | Full time | ONSITE | http://brava.com/careers

Brava is stealth, so you won't find much on us. We're very close to launch. All candidates that come onsite for interviews will receive product demos. We are a team of about 65 people consisting of chefs, scientists, engineers, designers, and everything in-between. It's certainly the most diverse set of skills on a product development team I've had the pleasure to work with.

We’re an IoT company focused on elevating and simplifying the in-home food experience. Our team consists of IoT and consumer hardware rockstars who have shipped products like the August Lock, Kindle and iPhone, as well as product, marketing and business trailblazers who have led multiple companies to high-profile exits.

We have an open and transparent culture, get shit done attitude, and free lunch. Oh, and random acts of kindness (food samples) throughout the day coming out of our test kitchen.

There are a number of openings. On the engineering side we have a need for:

Build and Release Engineer [0] - We're already running a half dozen Jenkins slaves and nearly 100 jobs. We build a custom Linux system for our device, iOS, web, and various tools in-between. Work with all of our product teams to maintain a seamless build/test/release process.

Embedded Systems Support Engineer IoT [1] - We are ramping up our customer care and triage teams in preparation for launch. This role is an integral part of a team consisting of customer care professionals as well as electrical and software support engineers.

Software Engineer Mobile / Full Stack [2] - Jack of all trades? Like to be involved in all aspects of a software product? We are looking for someone to join our mobile project that can also build the API's they need on the back end. Our team is made up of all full-stack engineers that are highly flexible and work across a range of technologies.

And in marketing:

Growth Marketing Manager [3] - Be at the heart of our online marketing efforts. Work with the creative and product teams and own every step of our funnel. Run A/B tests, ad tests, user segmentation, re-engagement/re-marketing, and more.

Love food and tech? Any of this sound good? Ping me. jd+jobs@bravahome.com
