Rival is building the operating system for the world's biggest venues. Ticketing is just one aspect of our platform, and by managing the inventory and truly digitizing the ticket by linking access to biometrics, we will be able to drive commerce, intelligence about fans, and enhanced security.

We have extraordinary engineers, PMs, and designers from the best technology companies in the world, who are working together to solve the many challenges of bringing millions of fans together for the music and sports events that they love. With investment from Andreessen, Upfront, sports teams from every major league in the US, and the leaders of Instagram, Twitter, Slack, and Stripe, we have the financial runway to build this platform the right way, from the ground up. We have revenue on the horizon and our first clients will be going live next year.

Our stack is mostly Python 3 and ES6+/TypeScript/React Native backed by AWS Lambda, Fargate, Kinesis, SQS, Aurora, and Dynamo. We're heavy AWS users with all infrastructure managed by Terraform. Local development and CI use Docker extensively. We're interested in engineers with expertise in these or similar technologies, or with background in distributed systems in general. We're especially interested if you're also passionate about building things, enjoy continuing to learn and grow, value open communication, and strong collaboration.

This is the opportunity you have been waiting for - hard engineering problems to solve; the conditions to move quickly and do your best work; to push yourself while having impact; to work with other exceptional people; and the chance to be a part of the early team that is building the technology platform that will change an industry.

Come help us build the next generation Lending as a Service platform. We're in an exciting transition phase where we need some key people to help break down our monolith into services. LendKey is a growth-stage lending technology firm that partners with credit unions and community banks to allow them to offer some of the most borrower-friendly loans in the industry (mostly in student loan / student loan re-fi space). LendKey enables these community financial institutions to bring loans to consumers online, making the end-to-end lending process easy & simple for both borrowers and lenders. Because we're growth stage (founded in 2009, Series C) the team has the advantage of being at a stable company but still have elements of a start-up (115 employees currently).

What we offer:

• Competitive Salary

• Stock options

• Unlimited Vacation Policy

• Flexible work environment

• Startup culture

• Employee events/activities

• Good benefits

We're looking for top tech talent in software, platform, data engineering, and UX. What we're seeking in all of these roles: Team-members who are open to learning new technologies. Brave enough to implement solutions to challenging problems. Can be hands-on but also strategic. Willing to speak your mind but kind to others when doing it. We're Ruby on Rails, Linux, Docker, but we're actively searching for the next tool for the job. For data/reporting we are a SQL Server and MySQL shop, looking for Apache Hadoop, Kafka, Airflow and Amazon Redshift experience.

Shoot me an email at tony (dot) baron at lendkey.com with resume or questions! Don't quite fit and things sound interesting? Let's see if we can work something out, anyway. I'm an engineer here at LendKey.

Lendable is the UK's fastest-growing online consumer lender (and, as of this month, #2 in UK in terms of loan volumes). We are highly tech-focused - #1 in UK (Zopa) does 2-3x lending with 10x staff. We are profitable - our business model is scalable. To support our ongoing expansion we are looking to grow our Dev team by staffing:

1. Senior Frontend Engineer - JS developers experienced in the React ecosystem to help improve the isomorphic front-end of our platform, and to get started on a new mobile app development from the ground using React Native. You will kick-start a new green field project and help build a new product from scratch.

2. Senior Software Engineer - devs confident in their Symfony and PHP 7 skills to work on our main platform. In addition to our main backend project, we have several smaller projects driven by their APIs. They are a mix of Scikit-learn, Flask, Symfony, Silex, Angular2 and NodeJS apps.

We have a strong data science team who work mainly in Python building neural networks and other machine learning models to do everything from credit scoring to fraud detection. There’s always the opportunity to pick up some interesting new ideas from them.

Job perks, apart from working with a small team of fun-loving high performers, include a paid-for annual working vacation abroad, a superb loft office in Shoreditch (the largest in the area), regular team events, weekly team lunch, hardware of your choice, personal development/learning time, and more.

Sound interesting? Drop benjamin@lendable.co.uk a line with your CV

We are a stealth startup working to fix the software doctors use. If you have seen what physicians have to put up with, it's a bad version of the 90s, and makes medical care worse and more expensive for everyone. We are a group of previously successful engineers and entrepreneurs (MIT, Dartmouth, Datapower, Stripe, Salesforce, etc) and senior doctors (Johns Hopkins, UCSF, etc) who are determined to finally fix this.

Compensation: market salary & equity -- we are well funded.

Stack: includes Rust, React and Kubernetes. In addition to building our back end in Rust, we are also be solving some very interesting problems in the areas of data processing, APIs, UX frameworks and fine-grained application security.

Please email jobs@commure.com and mention "[rusthn]" in the subject line. Other positions available (Senior Front End Engineer, Senior Security Engineer), but please use [fehn] or [sehn] in subject line.

Locations: San Francisco, Montreal or Boston; sorry, no distributed/remote option at the moment.

Polyteknium | Wrocław, Poland | Various Engineering Roles | Remote | Contract-based

We’re a full-service product and engineering team based out of Wrocław, Poland. We build web applications and custom enterprise software from start-to-finish for companies in the U.S.

As more and more companies embrace remote work, they will find a competitive advantage in building an international footprint abroad to work with engineering talent. Ranking third in the world in software development, Poland is our bet on where U.S.-based companies will look.

Here’s what we’re looking for:

* Software developers (eg. back-end in Python/Ruby/Node, front-end in React/Vue or other)

* Software architects (eg. software patterns, distributed systems)

* Experienced DevOps engineers (unix sys admin, containerization, AWS or other hosted)

* Experienced data engineers (AWS experience, SQL/NoSQL, data streams)
