Ask HN: Who is hiring? (April 2019)

Buster is an online platform for booking group ground transportation. We have a sophisticated pricing and booking tool built and a big pool of quality vendors taking our trips. We’re in the midst of bringing a technology solution to an $11 billion industry that’s basically offline without our platform. We have a small team of developers with lots of work to go around. As we grow, you’ll, by default, find yourself as a leader in a multi-million dollar company.

Our tech stack is Ruby on Rails, vanilla JS/jquery, and built on Heroku (although we’re migrating to AWS).

Our offices are in New York, NY and Chicago, IL.

We’re building a personalised healthcare service that will change the way people approach their health. We think it's too hard to understand what’s going on inside our bodies — leading to big problems later on as our lifestyles catch up with us. We want to change that, hopefully with your help! With at-home tests and a slick platform, you can finally track what's really going on inside your body. And that’s just the start of it!

Solar United Neighbors is a national nonprofit that organizes local communities around the country to go solar, join together, and fight for their energy rights.

We’re growing fast -- really fast. We’re expanding into new states, building new partnerships, and offering new services. That kind of growth requires a great IT infrastructure to help our members and supporters organize and advocate for solar at the state and national level. Your job is to help build the infrastructure that powers our growth.

IN THE FIRST YEAR, you can expect to work on projects that include:

- Work with our Go Solar team to CUSTOMIZE SALESFORCE to support new product lines and workflows, streamline their workload, and increase our ability to report on campaign performance.

- UPGRADE OUR COMMUNITY MANAGEMENT SYSTEM (mass email, advocacy, event management, donations) to a more effective and flexible system (or systems) and integrate them with both our websites and with SalesForce.

- Work with our Growth team to REBUILD OUR WEBSITES to be more user-friendly, accessible, and effective at engaging our community of solar supporters.

- Work with our Engagement Director to DEVELOP WEB APPLICATIONS that automate the internal workflow for our two major national solar awareness campaigns -- Brews from the Sun and the National Solar Tour.

We’ve gone all-in with WordPress for our websites, so you need to know your way around WORDPRESS (and PHP in general) really well. Most of our core business logic lives in SALESFORCE, so you need to know how to customize SalesForce (custom objects, reports, workflows). Deploying and managing the servers will be your responsibility, so you need to be effective on the LINUX command line. And we have some data analysis projects on deck, so you need to be comfortable setting up DATABASES and writing SQL queries.

Just as important as all those technical skills -- maybe more! -- you need to be a COMMITTED TEAM PLAYER who is ready to shoulder responsibility, find the opportunity hidden in every problem, and build other people up.

Finally, you need to bring a commitment to innovation and continuous improvement. We’re huge fans of applying the LEAN STARTUP model to our work -- building quick prototypes to test our ideas in the real world, collecting data to measure how well those ideas perform, and learning from that data so we can make the next version even better. If you bring data analysis skills, that’s a huge plus. Either way, an “ALWAYS BE TESTING” attitude is required.

You'll report directly to the VP OF GROWTH (me) and work with a committed and brilliant team of communications experts, policy wonks, digital marketers, and community organizers on projects with ambitious goals and aggressive deadlines.
