SAN FRANCISCO – Senior iOS Developer for Founding Team

Snowledge (http://snowledgeapp.com/)

We are looking for a Senior iOS Developer with the technical vision to build an app for the first true navigation and performance tracking platform for skiing and snowboarding.

About the Company

Snowledge is a mobile and web-based navigation and performance tracking community for the mountains. It equips skiers and snowboarders with valuable inside knowledge to navigate and explore their mountains, GPS technology to capture geotagged stats, photos, & videos, and a community to engage with each other and members of the ski and snowboard industry.

We are a seed stage startup with years of involvement in the skiing & snowboarding industry, including former Junior Olympic ski racing and current competitive big mountain skiing experience. We’ve raised a seed round of investment and partnered with 13 mountain resorts, in addition to a popular weather and snow forecasting site, to help develop and test our beta.

  ● 4+ years of professional engineering experience
  ● Expert knowledge of the Objective-C language
  ● Proven track record of developing quality apps currently available in the app store

Mainz, Germany - vastly.de

Currently, SDN use cases only affect the networks within datacenters or campuses. With vast.ly, we address the WAN, one of the last IT areas that exists out of reach for most developers. We think that developers deserve control about which network routes, ISPs and countries their content passes to reach users! It's time for the democratization of the internet backbone.

We are looking for talented software and network engineers. If you are interested to develop distributed software and already had a hand on OpenFlow, BGP or OSPF mail me sspies [AT] sloc.de

We offer a competitive salary and the possibility to work from remote.

TeachBoost - New York, NY https://careers.stackoverflow.com/jobs/58426/front-end-devel...

TeachBoost is looking for a full-time web developer for our Brooklyn, NY office who can handle all aspects of front-end web application development. We're looking for someone to be a key member of the development team - so experience (or the ability to learn quickly) and attention to detail are massively important.

We're moving from a single-repo PHP legacy application towards a client-service, multi-repo application codebase. To do that we'll be slicing off features from the PHP legacy app and re-writing them into front-end, client applications, in Node.js.

TeachBoost is a performance management platform for education; we help educators improve by streamlining and improving the coaching/evaluation process, and using that data to better inform educator development/training. We're a growing team of passionate, mission driven people - and looking for more of the same!

Get in touch with jason AT teachboost.com if you're interested!

Firefly - London, UK http://fireflysolutions.co.uk/join-our-team/jobs/junior-deve...

Firefly is a tool for schools to make it simple for students, teachers and parents to create, share and learn. We're small (~30 people), which means we can stay close to our clients and develop and improve our products very quickly to meet their needs. It also means you'll get great exposure to all of the things that go on in a fast growing business, and have a chance to have a big impact very quickly. We're also quite a close-knit team, so we're keen to find somebody with good social skills who would enjoy and thrive in this environment.

We’re looking for a junior back end web developer to join our growing development team. Development deals with expanding the functionality of Firefly, as well as providing support for the existing areas of the product. Previous experience in real world web development; familiarity with databases, mobile development and other school systems are helpful but not necessary.

We're looking for someone who is:

    • A keen and efficient problem solver
    • Independent in their work
    • Able to locate and fix problems in existing code
    • A good team player to work with other members of the team and work alongside
      our support team when necessary
    • Good with time management
    • Happy to take on responsibilities
    • A logical thinker
    • A good communicator – within the team and with other areas of the business
Knowledge of any of these would also help:

    • Microsoft development technologies (especially C# and ASP.NET)
    • Mobile app development (iOS or Android)
    • Linux, PHP and scripting
    • Experience in the education sector
Most importantly, we're looking for someone friendly, enthusiastic and good at picking up new skills quickly.

Salary would be competitive and depend on experience. All of the Firefly team also participate in a yearly bonus scheme based on the success of the business and their contribution. We're committed to your own professional development, so we offer a flexible training budget for you to spend on attending courses or other events.
