Seedlang | Front-end Developer | Berlin | REMOTE, FULL-TIME | Salary + sizeable equity Seedlang (http://seedlang.com) is a video-based language learning website that can be thought of as a combination of the best parts from Duolingo, Memrise, and Youtube. We create small stories around grammatical topics, split the sentences of the story into flashcards, and embed grammar into the subtitles of the flashcards. It's a really unique experience, and so far the response from the German-learning community has been great.

We use React / Mobx in the front-end, and Rails as a API server in the backend. I'm looking for someone to help with adapting our current codebase to React Native, so React Native eperience would be great. Interest in (spoken) languages is a huge plus! :)

Remote is totally fine, though Berlin is preferred.

Contact me at jeremy@seedlang.com

CaterCow | https://www.catercow.com | Brooklyn / NYC / New York, NY | ONSITE | $110k - $160k+, 0.3% - 2.0% equity, health care, 401k, bonuses, revenue share, etc.

I'm Chris, the cofounder and CEO of CaterCow. Previously I was the second employee (engineer) at Airbnb and left to build CaterCow. Come get in on the ground floor of our engineering team as we execute our plan to win the entire group food ordering market. If you're a great full stack engineer with wonderful business & design sense, I'd love to chat. Email me at chris@catercow.com with "HN Who's Hiring September 2018" in the subject.

Things that make us different: Profitable, infinite runway, 85%+ owned by founders and employees, no VC (we raised less than $200k 5 years ago, but have grown profitably since then), amazing 8 person full time non-technical team (Sales, Ops, Customer & Caterer acquisition, photographers), best in industry unit economics, very strong 5 year history of increasing revenue and profit growth, flexible and experimental view about travel & work.

Looking to hire 2 people immediately who think hard work and excellent software are the most powerful tools to dominate markets.

The last time we posted in this thread we ended up hiring @tgriesser (https://github.com/tgriesser) as Engineer #1 so you’ll be working directly with the two of us. We’re interested in building a team with a wide variety of skills and viewpoints and are open to all sorts of expertise. Right now we would favor engineers with particularly modern front end / design / UX sensibilities, a strong history of growth hacking, or experience leading multiple successful product features.

Please email me if you're interested in the above :) chris@catercow.com with subject "HN Who's Hiring September 2018"

SamKnows | Tests and Metrics Engineer | London, UK | Onsite, full-time

SamKnows is currently recruiting for a full-time developer to join its team in London. Our company provides network measurement hardware, software and services to telecoms regulators and ISPs worldwide. We build own hardware measurement probes, which we've distributed to more than 100,000 users so far. Naturally, these all run OpenWrt.

We write our measurements in C and C++, covering a wide array of QoS and QoE performance metrics (far more than just speed tests!). Familiarity with working in embedded Linux environments is a huge benefit. We collect and analyse hundreds of millions of measurements per day using this infrastructure.

The role would primarily involve developing measurement software and also working on the probes themselves. We are also increasingly embedding our measurements in ISPs' existing CPE, and have so far embedded our measurement agent in millions of CPE across Europe and North America. So in interest in working with software and services running at a large scale is a must!

For more information and to apply please see https://www.samknows.com/company/careers/embedded-devices-so...

If you have any questions, feel free to email me directly at sam@samknows.com
