Monzo | Backend Engineer | Full time | London or Remote | https://monzo.com/

At Monzo we aim to build the best current account in the world. We are always keen to hear from capable, creative engineers who want to help us accomplish that goal.

We’re still a relatively small company with only 10 people in the backend engineering team and 50 people in total. This means you will need to wear many hats in the beginning but it also means there are many interesting challenges ahead that you can specialise in if you like. Broadly, the work we’re doing covers these areas:

* Distributed platform: We aim to be the first bank without a single point of failure

* Banking and payments: We write code that moves money

* Product engineering: We help our customers by hiding the boring parts of money management

* Financial crime: We need to stay ahead of criminals trying to steal data and money

* Internal tooling: We automate everything so the rest of the team can work smarter

Our backend architecture is composed of hundreds of distributed Go microservices running in the cloud. They are managed by Kubernetes, store data in Cassandra, do RPC with linkerd/Finagle, and use Kafka for asynchronous queueing.

Lots more detail is on our website : https://boards.greenhouse.io/mondo/jobs/244898

Bauer Xcel Media | Devops Engineer | Full Time | New York, NY or REMOTE

Bauer Xcel Media is the small digital 'startup' arm of Bauer Media, a very old, stable, and profitable German publishing company that operates in multiple countries around the world. We have two main products. A content publishing platform on a large scale for our magazines. And a complex app to run a multi-region sweepstakes business for our magazines.

We have a really great culture, a super positive and friendly team, and exceptional work-life balance. We are based in NYC, though the dev team has a very remote-friendly culture as long as you generally overlap with EST hours.

This role does not include 24/7 pager duty, and since it will be primarily dev-facing, the majority of your communication will be done over slack, JIRA, and google hangouts with a team of bright and friendly people. We're looking for a mid-level person who can help us clean up and automate some things and keep the ship running smoothly and well-documented.

Some technologies we use include Ruby, Rails, Heroku, AWS, Postgres, Mongo.

Email me afogg at bauerxcel.com for more info or please mention my name (Alex) as a referral if you apply.
