ZigWay is an early stage social fintech startup helping poor families get out of debt traps and poverty through access to finance.

We're looking for a react-native developer to take over our mobile app from the founding CTO (I'm too busy elsewhere). 3-5 years coding experience, at least a couple of RN apps under your belt, but mostly a strong desire to use your skills to help our fight against poverty. You'll also work on our react web front-end, and python/django/DRF backend if you have the appetite for it.

Remote work or you can relocate to Myanmar if you like tropical weather :) (we would help with visas)

Drop me a line at laurent@zigway.co

Weaveworks | Backend Developer | San Francisco, London, Berlin | ONSITE, Full-time | https://www.weave.works

* Senior frontend dev: write reactive and snappy web UIs that show complex data and are easy to navigate (London)

* Senior backend dev: develop microservices (primarily in Go) and container tools (Berlin/SF)

* Developer experience/evangelist: spread the word in meetups/conferences, develop integrations for our tools

Come help us build OSS tools that other developers use to tame their containerized applications. Projects like Weave Scope observe containers/pods/services and their interactions to provide visibility and insights. Developers can quickly see the state of the resulting systems and validate their assumptions.

We offer family-friendly hours (some of us have kids, too) and encourage a good work-life balance. Feel free to work from home on certain weekdays, or combine work and travel for a month. It's no big deal if you're not a JS or a Go expert, we trust that you can learn on the job. Also, all our tools are open source: https://github.com/weaveworks Browse our PRs to see how we work as a team!

The hiring process: Checking your CV/GH/SO (if not enough signal: small coding challenge), 45 mins hangout, afternoon take-home coding/design challenge, in person interview with future colleagues

Automattic (WordPress.com, Gravatar, WooCommerce, etc.) | Backend developer | Remote | https://automattic.com/work-with-us/code-wrangler/

I never thought I would work for 10 years with the same company, but here I am :-) Automattic is the nicest group of people (brings 10x personal happiness), almost no bureaucracy (given it’s 600+ people), just common sense on every level.

On to technical things. We’re looking for more backend developers to work both on APIs, but also on user-facing features. Teams are small, a lot of the code is open-source, backend deploys take few seconds and we do 100+ of them a day, the CI says tests are passing, scaling and performance are daily concerns.

And some not-so-technical. Users are millions and kinda like us, 100% distributed – we meet in person few times per year anywhere in the world, growing stable business, all internal communication is open to anybody, people rarely leave the company.

More here: https://automattic.com/work-with-us/

Stack: - PHP REST API & open-source PHP WordPress plugins (Jetpack, WooCommerce) - modern JavaScript single-page app frontend, 100% open-source: http://github.com/Automattic/wp-calypso - various other systems in Python, Go, Erlang, Java…
