Akkroo (https://akkroo.com) — London, England — App Engineer (ReactJS/JS/iOS/PHP), full-time

Mercedes-Benz, Breitling, United Airlines and Marie Curie Cancer Care are a few businesses who use our mobile apps to strip the paper out of mobile, customer data capture.

We're a smidgen over 2 years old, 8 people small, growing fast, and our mobile and web-based tools are part of the next wave of better, consumer-influenced enterprise SaaS software. We're replacing slow paper process with well-considered, scalable software and services - saving thousands of hours of work for our customers and their teams in over 90 countries. For tasks traditionally done on a clipboard, we are delivering an enjoyable, faster and smoother experience.

Our next engineer will benefit from a real opportunity to shape, influence and improve our products. As part of a small team of engineers, you will be working with new technologies to build our apps (we use ReactJS, Docker, Keen.io today, and ReactJS Native looks very promising). We love cross-discipline participation. A great fit for us will be a curious, thoughtful and smart person.

We’re also hunting for someone to lead our Customer Success efforts: https://akkroo.com/jobs/customer-success-manager

TomTom – http://www.tomtom.com — London, UK – Mobile & Embedded Apps and DevOps roles (full time, on site, relocation available)

We're TomTom's navigation software team in London and our goal is to build great new on-the-road experiences for drivers and bikers everywhere.

The apps we make are built into Renault and Smart in-car systems, are available for smartphones, and form an integral part of TomTom's expanding range of consumer devices, where hardware and software are conceived together. Just like this one, coming soon: http://www.tomtom.com/new-rider-400 - http://www.engadget.com/2015/01/15/turn-to-page-17-for-the-t...

The developers who join our team are valued for their ideas as well as their skills, and we try to encourage both through regular hack days, plus training or conference attendance in areas that interest them.

-- Role: Mobile & Embedded Apps Developer

Our apps feature TomTom's signature design language and map-centric UI, optimised for our domain. Working with TomTom's UX team, app development with us is a challenging mix of custom UI development and deep routing, guidance, traffic and search presentation smarts. If you join us you'll be developing with Java, C++, JavaScript, Android, iOS and Qt.

-- Role: DevOps for Mobile & Embedded

Building scaleable CI infrastructure for mobile & embedded app testing is hard, particularly when you add custom pre-release hardware and GB's of map data into the mix. If you join us you'll be working with Android and iOS SDK command line tools and device emulators, Jenkins, Git, Artifactory, Gradle, Ruby, Docker and a mix of local device farms and cloud computing services.

Codility (https://codility.com/about/), Warsaw, Poland

We're currently looking for experienced software engineers for a full-time position in Warsaw.

Our product is a coding test engine. We're helping companies recruit by providing simple, impartial assessment of programming skills at an initial stage of the process. Currently this means basic algorithmics (e.g. "write a function that does this and this, and figure out how to do it in linear time"), but we're also experimenting with other types of programming tasks.

We're still a small company (less than 30 people) with lots of ideas on what to build next. I've been here for two years now as a programmer, and I really enjoyed seeing how far we have come and how much we have been able to learn.

Our development team has seven software engineers and two sysadmins. We have a continuous integration cycle, code reviews and some pair programming. The technology stack includes Python, Django, Postgres, Celery and Chef.

See the full job ad for more details: https://codility.com/jobs/?gh_jid=32596#job. You can also contact me by e-mail (pawel@codility.com).

Search Product Manager - New York, San Francisco, London, Berlin

At Mapzen we take a different approach to the core components of mapping: open source, open data, open access. We make modular tools for building better maps because we believe that healthy mapping ecosystems are ones that are diverse, sustainable, and accessible to all.

We're building a geocoder on top of entirely open data. We're providing it for use as a hosted service and designed it for modular use and improvement by developers. Geocoding and search are among the most complex problems in open source mapping today, and we believe that the best way to solve those problems is to build open services, software, and community around better search and better data.

As product manager, you will help and guide a team of developers toward our feature, quality, and community goals. You'll have an understanding of current open datasets (and be on the lookout for new ones) and an interest in figuring out how they can fit together for geocoding. Your perspective is global, with an appreciation for diverse addressing systems and ideas about how to build software that works for everyone. You know how to assess quality search results, and how to investigate and improve results that fall short of user expectations.
