Ask HN: Who is hiring? (August 2016)

We have an opportunity open for someone who wants to join a company from the very start and build out our engineering team.

We're an early-stage startup building machine learning-based customer service chatbots for the enterprise. Our tech can automate upwards of 50% of customer service queries for large enterprise clients using human-like chatbots.

Our team currently includes a Machine Learning PhD from Oxford as well as a product/business guy with international PM experience with companies big and small as well as design chops.

We're looking for a head of engineering, or CTO, who thrives in startup environments and can self-manage. This person will be a core part of the founding team with equity that reflects that.

Please get in touch via the google form to learn more. We will respond to all queries.

I'm a senior consultant with the Advisory wing of Optiv. We are hiring web app/mobile security consultants - basically, a client gives you a an app and some info and you try to find as many vulnerabilities if you can. Being a profit center for the company has its advantages- our salaries are competitive (with a reasonable bonus structure to boot), and our work life balance is tough to beat - i took a few months off last year and nobody batted an eye.

We'd like people who are comfortable working by themselves - you have the support of peers and the company's project management apparatus but the testing and customer work is generally pretty independent. Being able to explain the OWASP top 10 and other common web security vulnerabilities is something you should be able to do in your sleep. Mobile application skills and cloud security knowledge is a huge perk. Finally, being able to explain and write clearly is important - you need to have both the written and verbal English skills to explain complex security concepts to both developers and shareholders.
