Uber is a really nice place to build a product with a great sense of ownership. You'll be working with a highly motivated peer group, on some of the hardest problems in the real world. As an engineer, it's a very rewarding experience in scaling your implementation to serve the magical trip to millions of users every day. Disclaimer: I work in the team.

Earlier quoted context omitted.

There was an energetic internal discussion about that very question when I started posting these about a year ago. In the end, the conclusion was: yes. I am allowed. Encouraged, actually.

> energetic internal discussion so - not discussed on HN then. I was wondering if it might go against HN "ethics" because it risks everyone posting these and then Who's Hiring gets spammed. One of the best things about Who's Hiring is that you get close to the person actually offering the position.

I see your point.

However, I've been doing this for a year now and, so far as I can tell, there hasn't been a significant uptick in comments in these threads. It tends to fluctuate between 700 and 1,000 depending on the month (more in northern hemisphere summer, less in winter).

I'd also add that I spend a bunch of my personal time answering questions, following up and so on. It can sometimes be fun and sometimes it isn't fun at all.

The referral link is new since last month and is exactly equivalent to any other direct application in getting "close to the person actually offering the position". They both go directly to the staff recruiter responsible for handling that job.

For those folk who don't want me to get a referral bonus, for any reason, you can visit https://pivotal.io/careers and go through the same system.

Pachyderm | Lead front-end/JS engineer | San Francisco Onsite

pachyderm.io, github.com/pachyderm/pachyderm

Email: jobs@pachyderm.io

Pachyderm is looking for a Javascript expert to lead and own the entire web front-end, dashboard UI, and data visualization layer of Pachyderm! Experience with D3 or other visualization libraries is a plus.

Pachyderm is just 5 people right now, so you'd be getting in right at the ground floor and have an enormous impact on the success and direction of the company as well as building the rest of the engineering team.

Experience with full product life cycles and designing interfaces that are easily updated over time as products evolve is a must. Some backend server-side experience is also a nice plus, but not a strict requirement.

Right now Pachyderm's core technology just hit v1.1 and is production-ready. The next phase is to build a hosted service including administration panel and advanced data visualization tools.

Salaries start at $100k and go up from there based on experience. We also offer significant equity, full benefits, and all the usual startup perks. This position is based in SF.

Positions:

* Lead Front-end JS engineer

* Core distributed systems/infrastructure engineer : Golang

Our hiring process is focused around strong communication skills and simulating our actual work environment, not BS coding questions.

Read more about our company vision and goals:

What would data analytics infrastructure (namely Hadoop) look like if we rebuilt it from scratch today? We think it would be containerized, modular, and easy enough for a single person to use while still being scalable enough for a whole company. Tools like Docker and Kubernetes provide the perfect building blocks for us revolutionize data infrastructure!
