Frontend Software Developer - LightSide Labs - Pittsburgh PA

www.lightsidelabs.com

LightSide is an educational technology company focused on improving student writing. We're doing great things in PA and NY with our pilot school districts, showing how you can use machine learning and natural language processing to help give automated tutoring support outside of standardized testing and high-stakes assessment.

We're currently a team of 11, mostly in Pittsburgh (with one remote employee), and our founders have a mixture of Ph.D. machine learning and entrepreneurial experience. We're well-funded and more-or-less bootstrapped, through grants from the Gates Foundation as well as a number of corporate and institutional customers.

We're hiring an experienced web developer for a full-time position building front-end applications powered by our machine learning backend. The platform will aim to help teachers assess student work, such as essays or journals, and improve student writing through feedback during the revision and editing process.

You’ll be working primarily in AngularJS on a rich single-page application. Our web services are built in Python using the Django framework, and our backend is powered by state-of-the-art machine learning implemented in Java. Your primary responsibilities will focus on frontend development, but you’ll occasionally dive into our Python web services and collaborate on defining our user workflows including UX and visual design. There'll be many opportunities to learn a lot about NLP, AI, and machine learning, if you're interested.

We prefer an on-site employee at our office in Pittsburgh, PA, but can make exceptions for awesome people. Compensation is competitive and based on experience.

onefinestay - javascript application developer - London, UK

# who are we?

There’s a new way to stay in a city. onefinestay is a trusted service for hosts to flexibly share their homes while they’re out of town. We give guests the best bits of a boutique hotel stay inside some of the most distinctive homes around.

# why does onefinestay need developers?

As well as continuously improving www.onefinestay.com we’re building a whole bevy of tools to support the very real, very logistical business that depends on technology, from mobile tools to scheduling systems. Here’s a snapshot of some of the things we're currently working on, will be working on soon, or maybe just finished.

Updating the entire online pre-stay experience for guests (we call it, online check-in)

Launched a brand new online magazine with custom cms called The Edition

Developed an authentication and staff management system to handle our ever-growing team

Completely revamping the entire site to support mobile devices (40% of our traffic comes from iOS)

# who do we want?

We're looking for someone who can question the status quo, bring new ideas to the table, see the full potential of a new feature (and push it to realisation), or if necessary tone down something that is getting out of hand. Everyone on the team is a fullstack developer, to some degree. But our django heavy application is moving more and more to the client in order to keep our interfaces as usable as possible. We'd like you to have some experience with server-side code in a production environment, but if yours isn’t in python or django, don't worry, there’ll be plenty of time to learn. With that in mind, we’re looking for:

High-level ability in HTML/CSS (SASS)

MVC style application development with javascript (backbone, underscore, react)

Some experience with server side frameworks (django, RoR, express)

Ability to work with our product team to develop high quality user experience

Strong knowledge of web standards and cross-browser compatibility

There's a bunch of other stuff that will go a long way to get us excited:

Experience with source control (git, mercurial)

Experience with agile development methodologies

Comfortable working with pre-processors such as browserify, React's jsx format

Experience with CI and automated testing (jenkins, jasmine)

# what we can offer you?

Competitive salaries

Stock options

A social work environment filled to the brim with talented developers

Your choice of dev environment (on the penthouse floor of our sweet new offices)

Time to expand and grow your skills
