Software Engineer (C++) | Greenwich, CT or NYC | Full-time | Onsite | http://www.neomantra.com

Neomantra is developing a next-generation market data visualization and analytics product for desktop and mobile. Our product allows retail and professional traders to see and understand the stock market in unprecedented ways. With our powerful subscription-based tools, they can make better trading decisions.

Our back-end technology is rooted in HFT and HPC infrastructure. We are colocated at the exchanges, directly receiving the firehose of market data. We effectively take the stock market, convert it into web-friendly JSON stored in in-memory databases, and transmit it on-demand to end users. Our middle tier is a combination of Nginx/OpenResty, Node.js, and custom C++ WebSocket servers, while our front-end is HTML5, WebGL, JavaScript/TypeScript, and React.

We are seeking a C++ expert to work on our backend systems. We are a small tight-knit engineering team and you will get exposure to all aspects of our system. Notably, you'll get to use C++11/14 on high-performance low-latency projects such as market data feed handling, messaging fabrics, analytics pipelines, and HTTP data services. We use kernel bypass technology on multi-core shared-memory systems and love libraries like boost and folly. We actively collaborate with the Open Source community and give back as much as possible.

We are based in Greenwich, CT, near the MetroNorth station. We are open to semi-remote candidates (on-site twice a week) coming from NYC and in the process of opening a WeWork office in midtown. We offer competitive compensation tailored to your needs.

Email jobs@neomantra.com with an introduction and your resume. Thank you for your interest!

REMOTE ONLY GitLab - We're hiring production engineers, service engineers, developers, business development reps, and director level positions, see https://about.gitlab.com/jobs/ We're a remote only company so everyone can participate and contribute equally. GitLab Community Edition is an open-source Ruby on Rails project with over 1000 contributors.

Guys who are applying to Gitlab, make sure you checkout the compensation for your experience and geographic location https://about.gitlab.com/jobs/developer/#compensation . This may bite you in the later stages of the interview. If you look at the extremes, the salary you would get in Luanda, Angola is 1500% more than what you get if you were in Valenzuela, Philippines.

While I appreciate the transparency, I don't think such large salary differences are reasonable especially with remote work. In the end you compete globally for remote employees and it possible to work remote for SV companies and get somewhat similar salaries than the onsite employees.

...and of course is living much more expensive in SV but I don't see why that should be "subsidized". No harm in people realizing that it's freaking crazy to pay that much rent.

Earlier quoted context omitted.

If you are really serious about being fair. Ask yourself this question: Why would a guy who can easily get 6K+ USD per month by working on Upwork, Toptal work for Gitlab for 1/3rd of that money and that too Full time? A quick google search will show you that people use 30% of their salary towards their rent: https://www.google.co.in/search?q=rent+as+percentage+of+sala... What does that tell you about computing salari…

We are serious about being fair :-) Regarding using the rent index; that was a data-driven decision as described on https://about.gitlab.com/handbook/people-operations/global-c... but as I mentioned, it is a work-in-progress just like everything else at GitLab always is, and I'm open to alternatives / ideas.

Why are we bashing GitLab when they're at least taking steps to make their pay public? Every company has some version of this formula, you just can't see how off it is.
