CRITEO (http://labs.criteo.com/) | Paris | Full-time ONSITE | Mobile Engineer (VISA sponsorship)

• Build mobile SDKs present over a billion mobile devices worldwide already and used by the major games and apps publishers on iOS, Android and Windows Phone platforms.

• Learn and exploit new mobile platforms, adapt to changing requirements and contribute to a product that has grown by a factor of 4 in the last months.

• Find the signal hidden in tens of TB of data, in one hour, using over a thousand nodes on our Hadoop cluster. And constantly keep getting better at it while measuring the impact on our business.

• Get stuff done. A problem partially solved today is better than a perfect solution next year. Have an idea during the night? Code it in the morning, push it at noon, test it in the afternoon and deploy it the next morning.

• High stakes, high rewards: 1% increase in performance may yield millions for the company. But if a single bug goes through, the mobile Internet goes down (we’re only half joking).

Feel free to drop us a line at r&drecruitment[@]criteo.com =)

Stylight | Munich | Germany | Visa & Relocation support

We’re a fashion company but you won’t have to wear the latest Karl Lagerfeld. A hoodie or your favorite Docker shirt will do just fine. You don’t even need to like fashion at all, but a certain admiration for Ken Thompson, Rob Pike or Martin Fowler is always appreciated. You don’t speak German? No big deal, we use English as our main language and we have colleagues from 20+ nations.

We're currently looking for a Really, Really Good Software Engineer (http://jobs.stylight.com/really-really-good-software-enginee...)

Interested? Contact me on sandra.jasarevic@stylight.com. Want to know more about us? Check out our Tech Blog: http://tech.stylight.com/

I applied 11 days ago and never received a reply. Did my application get lost or do you only reply if there's a fit?

Is a reply really necessary. Granted, when a reply does come through (even if negative), it feels good that you've been noticed.

I'm not sure how the hiring culture has changed recently, but I remember around 8-10 years back, I'd send my resume to many companies. No reply, means they are not interested.

Same with dating :)

I don't have a problem with them not being interested, just like when dating :-)

But since I am applying to places I only really care about, I'd like to know when I'm not a good fit (so I can improve in the meantime), but mostly because so much tech stuff can go wrong (db died, email got marked as spam, their reply got lost somewhere, etc).

Unmade - https://www.unmade.com | London, UK | Full-time, ONSITE

Unmade is building a vertically-integrated customisation platform for the fashion industry. We’ve created the software to create unique manufacturing as a scaleable service. This allows customers to get involved in the design process, see a photo-realistic preview of their garment, and have it knitted on one of our in-house industrial knitting machines. We're now partnering with bigger brands to take these tools to a global scale and are working to integrate our technology in a range of websites and factories throughout the world.

All of our backend code is written in Python, from our Django-based websites, through to our knitting machine compiler. We practice continuous deployment, using Docker on AWS.

We're looking for a Senior Python developer to help us out across our full product range. Prior knowledge of knitting is not required!

Background about the business:

At Mustard we research and manage automated sports betting algorithms that we use to trade and make profit. We run multiple systematic strategies that connect to sport betting exchanges and are semi-supervised by humans. Our stack mostly consists on Python plus some Go using ZMQ and PostgreSQL running on Ubuntu bare-metal servers on LXC containers. It's mostly backend work with minor JS UI stuff and a bit of systems administration.

We have a very flat hierarchy and relaxed environment. We work on kind of a mix atmosphere where devs cooperate with quants and sport traders.

We are looking for developers who have solid fundamentals in programming and maths and an ability to pick up new technologies. You don't need to be interested in sports or betting.

If this appeals to you, please send your CV and covering letter to: jobs@mustardsystems.com
