Available positions: Software engineer (ruby), devops engineer (security-oriented)

NoviCap is a barcelona-based Techstars company that provides early payments for outstanding invoices to small and medium sized businesses in Spain.

Software Engineer | True Link Financial | San Francisco, CA (onsite)

Our software stands valiantly between scammers and grandma's money.

I found out about this big-hearted YC company from the June 1st Who's Hiring thread and started working full-time on June 15th. Here are some things I've done since then:

- Helped to train & mentor our talented first-job engineer (sourced through Hacker News!)

- Built internal features that made our Customer Support folks pretty much squeal with excitement

- Got to attend & report back on a brilliant event called 'Disrupt Bias' - featuring top researchers in that field

- Attended an INCREDIBLE annual offsite held at a beautiful North Bay ranch

- Watched 'lightning talks' by various team members about the Fermi Paradox, Frank Lloyd Wright, Coco Chanel & many more

- Was treated with compassion after a pretty ridiculous security misstep :/

- Got selected to speak at an upcoming conference that hasn't published its speaker list yet. :)

- Learned a ton about how payment processing works under the hood

- Used Twilio to add functionality to our phone system so our CS friends have a lower call volume

- Increased gif / screencap usage in PRs & code reviews

We're looking for nice people who have worked on hairy, wacky production full-stack code before - someone who can make things better without being rude, judgemental or arrogant about it. We'd prefer session musicians over rockstars.

Email jobs@truelinkfinancial.com and we'll get back to you within 2 business days, pinky swear!

keywords for you CMD+F types (not requirements) - rails, RoR, Jumpman, Jumpman, Jumpman, ruby, fintech, full-stack, chinchillas

Captain401 (YC S15) - https://captain401.com - San Francisco, CA — ONSITE (but willing to relocate)

Captain401 is building the perfect retirement savings plan for startups and small businesses. We’re following in the footsteps of great companies like Gusto (formerly ZenPayroll) and Zenefits in making essential HR administration a snap for businesses large and small, and like Wealthfront, in making sound investing strategy accessible to everyone.

We also just closed a substantial seed round from top investors, but we’re currently just three people. If you’ve been wanting to dive into an early stage startup, this is the perfect time to start talking to us.

If you’re interested in working with us, you can expect:

* A prompt response with your next steps in the interviewing process.

* A challenging in-person technical interview based around collaborative pair programming. No whiteboard coding.

* An offer with market salary and above-market equity compensation.

* A friendly work environment that emphasizes clear communication and respect.

Ideally, we’re looking for someone with experience building and scaling web services in the wild. If you’re familiar with node.js, PostgreSQL, or React, that’s a slight plus. We don’t care where (or if) you went to school.

Definitely talk if us if you’re interested in user psychology and building tools that encourage good saving habits. That’s a big part of what we’re going to be thinking about going forward.

We encourage you to include pointers to open source contributions, your GitHub profile, and personal portfolios in addition to the usual resume and LinkedIn.

TechEmpower - Los Angeles area, California (El Segundo, near LAX) - ONSITE

You may recognize us from the Web Framework Benchmarks that have been discussed on HN periodically: http://www.techempower.com/benchmarks/

We hire people, not skill sets. If you're a smart, motivated developer who likes our company culture, let's talk.

Over the past 18 years we've cultivated a great group of people to work with. Our developers are smart, thoughtful, respectful to each other, opinionated, dedicated, and fun.

    Challenging and varied projects
    Informal, comfortable environment
    Intelligent, engaged people
    Lively, respectful technology discussions
    Frequent mentoring
    Easy camaraderie
    General culture of helpfulness and friendliness
Teams at TechEmpower are typically between 2-6 people. Developers are able to work on all aspects of an application and we rely on individual developers to do much of the software design (with guidance and discussion). Working on 1 project at a time but 2-3 over the course of a year, developers get a broad technology experience over time.

We pride ourselves on doing the best work we can for our clients. This means working with them to really understand what they need built and delivering what we promise while maintaining a sensible work/life balance. We build quality applications and have fun doing it.

The technologies we use vary over time with our mix of projects. Here is a snapshot of the technologies we use at the moment:

    Languages: Java, JavaScript, Python, Go, C#, Ruby
    Tools: Git, Docker, Jenkins, Sonar, IntelliJ, Eclipse, Ant, Maven
    Web: Jersey, .NET MVC 5, Django, Node.js, Go, Backbone, Ember, Angular, jQuery, etc.
    Mobile: iOS, Android

A little bit about us:

  - We write custom software of all shapes and sizes for clients all over the US.

  - We aren't limited to any really specific set of technologies, which is a great
  opportunity to learn. In the past two years, I've worked with Python,
  Objective-C, Swift, Backbone.js + PhoneGap, Angular + CoffeeScript,
  Node.js, and Ruby/Rails.

  - We practice a sustainable pace. We recognize that we each have lives,
  activities, and families outside of work. Late nights and > 40 hour weeks are
  rare by design. Last year I worked an average of 40.408 hours per week.

  - We offer competitive salaries, health/vision/dental insurance, quarterly profit
  sharing, retirement + match, weekly catered lunches, and a top-floor office
  with snacks, guitars, and your choice of standing or sitting desks.
A little bit about you:

  - You love making software, and you have a couple of years of experience building
  software with a variety of tools and technologies.

  - You learn new stuff quickly. You’ve used a lot of technologies, but you’re not
  afraid to use more. You have some experience with web or mobile tech.

  - You believe software is written for humans, not computers.

  - You want to come into work every day and enjoy the people you work with.

Exa (http://exa.com) Burlington, MA (on 128 outside Boston) | Full-time ONSITE | H1B welcome

We're a relatively small software company that develops simulation/analysis/design products that are used for product design in a number of industries (e.g. automotive, aerospace, and motorsports to name a few). We have a few open positions in the SW team:

- I manage the development of two products here -- PowerCASE (simultion preprocessor) and PowerACOUSTICS (numerical analysis post-processing tool), both both of which are C++ desktop applications developed Qt on Windows and Linux. We're looking to grow both of these teams to support some major new enhancements that are planned. Both roles are listed as "senior", but I'm flexible on the level of seniority.

http://exa.com/careers/senior-software-engineer-cae-post-pro...

http://exa.com/careers/senior-software-engineer-cae-pre-proc...

- The team which develops PowerINSIGHT is also looking to add a couple of developers. PowerINSIGHT is a multi-platform desktop application (developed using C++, Qt, and some Python), which is used by engineers to help explore, compare, organize, and share the vast amounts of data generated by a series of fluid flow simulations.

http://exa.com/careers/principal-senior-software-engineer-c-...

- Finally, we have a team which is developing a product that provides web-based access to Exa's suite of engineering products (using Java/J2EE and various other web technologies), with a particular focus on managing simulation/analysis projects at a high level and supporting collaboration of multiple engineers working on the same projects.
