Ask HN: Who is hiring? (April 2017)

Amplitude Analytics | San Francisco, CA (SOMA) | https://www.amplitude.com | ONSITE

We help companies build the best products by providing analytics for understanding user behavior. We believe that the future of product development is in smart, fast, and easy-to-use analytics, not the complex data science stacks or surface-level vanity metrics of today. We're a 70-person company (15 engineers), and we raised our Series B last year. We've gotten incredible traction helping customers like Venmo, Udacity, Square, Intuit, Microsoft, Postmates, and Square Enix change the way they build products.

We have many open positions that can be found here (we're growing fast!): https://www.amplitude.com/careers. In particular, we're looking to grow out the engineering team with the following positions:

* Senior Backend Engineer

* Senior DevOps Engineer

* Senior Frontend Engineer

Our tech stack consists of Java, Python, Redis, Kafka, PostgreSQL, Elasticsearch, Docker, SaltStack on the backend and JavaScript, React, Flux, Highcharts, d3 on the frontend. We've got a number of extremely challenging technical problems to solve thanks to being in the analytics space, and we're looking for talented people who are passionate about the intersection of technology and product to help us take the next step.

We only hire the best engineers and pay very competitive salaries. Also, we don't do whiteboard interviews! Bring your laptop, and be prepared to write code the way you expect to on the job -- in a familiar working environment with access to the internet.

If this sounds interesting to you, please reach out to us at careers@amplitude.com or apply directly through https://www.amplitude.com/careers.

Pathgather - http://pathgather.com - ONSITE - New York, NY (NYC)

Pathgather is a fully-funded enterprise learning startup (Techstars '14) focused on helping employees at Fortune 500 companies advance their careers by learning new skills. Our platform is used by some of the largest companies in the world (HP, Visa, Qualcomm, etc.) to aggregate learning content from both public providers (e.g. Udacity, Pluralsight) and private catalogs (internal learning systems), empower their employees to share what they're learning (e.g. articles from HN), and track employee progress towards career goals. We've got real revenue, real customers, and a real opportunity to make learning better for employees everywhere.

We're looking for a Backend Engineer to join the engineering team. We've built out a GraphQL API that our frontend team consumes, which means our backend engineers get to focus on much more interesting problems than fetching data for views. We leverage our PostgreSQL schema heavily to enforce our business logic via DB constraints, trigger functions, and all kinds of fun things... When you aren't designing database models, you'll be writing integrations with a variety of external services, working on our machine learning models, and - of course - LEARNING.

If you share our particular love for Postgres, Ruby, GraphQL, data, and learning, contact me (neville@pathgather.com, CTO) or apply to our careers link below!

BACKEND ENGINEER (Ruby/Postgres/GraphQL), $100-130k, https://jobs.lever.co/pathgather/e700098b-b552-4b10-a5a5-e0e...

Yeah. Precisely. I so wish I didn't accept the offer there; I had a similar offer from a more respected company (or at least, as not of an embarrassing company). Oh well, can't turn back time.
