Nava | Washington DC & San Francisco SF | Experienced Full-stack Developers, DevOps Engineers, and Software Engineers| On-site - Full-time | $100k-$160k + equity We're a small team (18 people!) of engineers, designers, and product builders that were brought in to help fix HealthCare.gov in the winter of 2013. Since then, we've been working with the government to improve the services HealthCare.gov provides. Our revam…

In my most recent job change, I interviewed with Nava. Due to some family circumstances, I wasn't able to continue at the time, but they were great - responsive, friendly, understanding, and the interview felt very collaborative. I'd recommend checking them out.

Boston MA (US, REMOTE) What: Software-as-a-Service, Java, Android (Play Frameworks), microservices, tiered web application, full-stack, AngularJS $ Competitive Compensation, Base + Equity, MacBook Pro, Health, Unlimited Vacation Interview Process: Phone Screen, Blind Phone Interview- Technical, Onsite Technical & Culture Interview We work extensively with Android, iOS, and web front ends, using Java (Play framework)…

I'm a recent hire here, so consider my bias, but the interview process for me was among the best. The questions I was asked were relevant and solvable, some of them involving patterns that I use every week.

For what it's worth, I've also not had to deal with any politics. I just get to work, and everybody is very respectful, friendly, and helpful.

Earlier quoted context omitted.

That is very unfortunate. A CTO for a well funded small tech company should have recruiting as a top priority if they are looking to grow. It is really the only metric from which to measure an effective technical executive at that stage. It doesn't reflect well if you can't hire because your messaging is off or you aren't well organized.

Now my messaging is off and I'm unorganized? I can't comment on the circumstances of the original complaint given that I don't know the identity of the person involved. I can say that I've spoken with hundreds of candidates across a variety of technical and non-technical roles. We've hired ~15 over the last year and hope to find more folks that are excited to build with us. I can also say that as a "technical executi…

It's even worse if your messaging was not off and you did not reply. That shows the ethical ground you stand on. No matter how many applicants you have to reply to. 100 is not a big number anyways!

>> Resident of one of the following states: Alabama, California, Colorado, Connecticut, Florida, Georgia, Idaho, Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Minnesota, Missouri, New Hampshire, North Carolina, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Tennessee, Texas, Utah, Washington, or Wisconsin

That's an odd requirement for a remote position, isn't it?
