Ask HN: Who is hiring? (July 2019)

Scribd is a reading subscription that gives you access to the best books, audiobooks, magazines, and more. Our mission is to change how the world reads. Beginning of this year we hit 1M paying subscribers (https://techcrunch.com/2019/01/28/scribd-1-million-subscribe...)! We are one of the oldest YC startups (YC ’06), operating one of the largest Ruby on Rails sites.

The Content Engineering team is in need of both software engineers and senior software engineers, onsite in our new San Francisco office, onsite in our Toronto office, or remote within the United States. The Content Engineering team was newly formed with the dual mission to own and update Scribd's existing content metadata pipeline and build new metadata that can be used by the search, recommendations, data science, and frontend teams to build more useful and intelligent features. The work includes building data pipelines, data engineering, and a touch of machine learning.

Scribd has a very friendly, engineering-driven company culture with competitive salary and great benefits. We are ambitious but at the same time we value a good work life balance. In general we care way more about your personality and hacking skills than what languages you’ve used so far.

If this sounds appealing to you then you should apply! The links for both roles are below. If you have questions you can contact me at Shane at scribd.com (I'm the manager for the Content Engineering team).

SevenFifty is modernizing the wholesale beverage alcohol industry, which is massive and only recently adopting modern, web-based processes. Over 70,000 restaurants, bars, hotels, and retail stores across the country connect with their sales reps and wholesalers through our platform, replacing a status quo going back to Prohibition. We work with everyone from the largest importers to mom and pop winemakers to build bespoke tools for communication, content distribution, and order management, providing transparency across all tiers.

You'll be joining a small engineering team tackling a wide array of challenges - from complex data processing to modern, interactive web frontends; from liberating data from decades old mainframes, to consuming and writing APIs used by everyone from small retail shops to large conglomerates. We want people who are excited about learning new technologies and passionate about using those tools to make people’s daily lives more efficient. We're also in a sweet spot for ambitious and talented engineers; we have a lot of traction and are well-financed, but still have a very small team responsible for a wide range of work enabling you to take ownership of large slices of our technology stack.

Technologies: Ruby, Rails, JavaScript, Backbone, React, React Native, Solr
