Ampion | Full-stack Developer, Front-end Developer/UI Designer | Boston MA | Part-remote Full-time http://ampion.net

We are building a platform to help the pioneers of distributed energy generation replace fossil fuels with renewables. We need smart, motivated, and experienced developers and engineers willing to rethink the utility industry and scale our performance monitoring, high-volume billing procedures, and state-by-state regulatory compliance framework. We serve businesses, municipalities, schools, energy co-ops, hospitals, and solar/hydro/wind developers who want to bring on board customers to share in the benefits of renewable energy without the need for a large up-front investment. Our market opportunity is incredibly strong in the US and extends worldwide.

Currently our stack includes Rails, ElasticSearch, mySQL and Angular on AWS, but we are looking for developers with experience in any technology that will help us deliver amazing real-time data analysis and flexibility as we scale out to meet ever-growing demand. We are also looking for front-end developers and UI experts who can help us build out amazing data visualization and customer acquisition components, as well as mobile apps. We seek to create a diverse, inclusive environment where everyone can exercise their initiative and creativity.

Our office is in Back Bay, Boston, and we are looking for folks who can work on-site at least a few days a week. We offer competitive compensation and Health, Dental and 401K. $80k-$140k+ DOE

Contact: dev.jobs@ampion.net - please put "[HN]" in the subject

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.

Wow, for exactly this reason I now have no interest in applying. GitLab went from meh to awesome over the last few years but for my city the compensation is just wrong. I'm not interested in applying to have that fight later (or being paid 20-40k under market)

> I very much dislike the idea that you, as an employer, are deciding what proportion of their income your employees should be spending on rent. With rent as a multiplier, it's like they're suggesting 100% of your income goes to rent. It seems like a more reasonable way to take housing into account would be something like: Salary = Base + Avg Rent Using that formula, salary might be about $20k more for somebody in NY…

We found that rent correlates with market rates, see https://about.gitlab.com/handbook/people-operations/global-c... "Perhaps surprisingly, there was a stronger correlation between compensation and rent index than with the more general cost of living index available through Numbeo (or the cost of living with rent index, for that matter); and so we moved ahead with the Rent Index."

It might do you well to check up on the pay scales for the mid-size American cities.

I live in Minneapolis and the rates offered are laughable, really. My last apartment was on the border of St Paul, if I had lived a block away your offer would have been about 10% less.

It seems to not take into account rent diversity within a city (and which level a skilled employee would pick given the opportunity).

GitLab has really gotten my interest over the past year with both trying it myself recently and seeing you interact with folks on HN. I'm currently searching for a new position but seeing the rates make applying a non-starter.

Hey There! Thanks for the note! We do wish that field to be mandatory, but we can definitely add "if not please insert N/A" Thanks so much for the heads up on that and glad to see you've applied :D

Your salary calculator also completely excludes cities in Wales, UK :(

hamishtaplin; unfortunately coverage is not fully global yet; I think we have about 372 cities in there at the moment. This draws from Numbeo.com's data set on rent indices. But if your city is not listed, our default solution is the following "If you live outside a metro region we base our offer upon the lowest rent index number of any metro region in your country (or state, in the case of the USA), if your country is listed"

TokBox | DevOps Engineer, Full-Stack Software Engineer, Mobile Developer, Business Development - Inside Sales, Marketing - Marketing Manager, Communications Manager, Accounting - Financial Analyst | San Francisco, London https://tokbox.com/

TokBox makes it easy for developers to embed live video into their applications and websites. We build a WebRTC-powered platform and SDKs, and have great clients from individual developers to massive players in tech, entertainment, education, and many other industries (customers include the Minerva Project, Chegg, esurance, Major League Baseball, Double Robotics, and Fox Sports). We've been doing real-time communications for over 8 years - first with Flash, and now WebRTC. We were acquired by Telefonica 4 or so years ago. It hasn't changed the culture much, and has helped us reach more customers around the world.

The product is industry leading, but the atmosphere and people make this place where I work. It's an awesome group of 100 or so people- nice, smart, skilled. We are laid back and have a sense of humor. Minimal politics. Good salary and benefits, and a relaxed, enjoyable environment!

We're hiring many engineers, business development people, and marketing people, as well as someone for the accounting team. Check the descriptions below for more information.
