Yelp is a popular review website with over 60 million monthly active users on our desktop site alone.

We're looking for SREs and Infrastructure Engineers to join our Production Engineering and Compute Infrastructure teams.

I'm one of the hiring managers on the Compute Infrastructure team. We're a diverse group of ~15 spread across California, London and Hamburg. We handle the clusters that run the stateless services that power the website, along with all of our Spark and batch processing infrastructure. Technologies we use include: Mesos and Marathon (we're one of the biggest open source users of Marathon), Kubernetes, Docker, Terraform and Puppet. Work on our team is very high impact and supports a large number of both internal and external users.

I'd love to talk to you if you're interested in a role on our team and have either experience in distributed systems, reliability engineering or any of the specific technologies we mention. Right now we're looking for engineers with 2 or more years of experience to join our team[1].

If you're interested, please drop me an email at sunilsh@yelp.com with a brief note about why you're interested in this role and a resume.

Me | part time backend node dev | Sydney | Onsite I've got an open room in a penthouse on the beach in Sydney. Essentially I'd like you to come live in it for free and work part time on one of my open source side projects. --- About the apartment: This is the view you'd wake up to: https://i.imgur.com/3TiTwBp.jpg and the view from the other side of the apartment: https://i.imgur.com/7c3D4En.jpg . It's not bad. Here's…

Hmm... so I assume no customers yet? Or at least you got a mailing list setup?

None - not planning on gathering until there's a usable MVP, which is the aim of bringing someone on board. My plan for customer acquisition is to reach out to 100 content creators and give them $10/mo to distribute for free (paid out of pocket by myself) to seed the platform. Targeting creators should give an artificial boost to NPS that will attract more users.

Quill.org | Software Engineer | New York, NY | ONSITE, SALARY: 70k-120k

React / Ruby / Rails / Python / Machine Learning

At Quill.org, we’ve created an online learning platform to help middle school students, primarily lower income ones, improve their reading and writing ability. Our pedagogy is based on years of research that shows that once students understand the logic behind constructing sentences, their ability to read and write improves dramatically. Unlike common multiple-choice-based learning tools, our tools allow students to practice writing sentences and passages in their browser, while still receiving real-time, focused feedback. This is a challenging engineering problem that we use a variety of methods to solve, from simple regex to machine learning.

Some info about Quill.org:

- We were named one of Fast Company’s Top 10 Most Innovative Education Companies in 2018: https://www.fastcompany.com/40458272/this-machine-learning-p... - We served over 1 million students last year and are continuing to grow. - In April 2019, we won a grant from Google’s AI for Social Good initiative which provides us with both funding and mentorship from Google’s NLP experts. - We’ve been funded by the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, AT&T, Black Rock, and the Chan Zuckerberg Initiative to name a few.

As a member of our engineering team, you will be directly involved in building tools for students, teachers, and administrators. We are looking for developers who can take features from a user story to production. We are a rapidly-growing team of 13 working in the Financial District of New York City. This is a full-time role on-site, and we cannot sponsor a visa at this time.

REEL | Multiple positions | Santa Monica, CA | Onsite We're a small but fast growing fintech startup looking for the following positions: * Junior Front-end dev (react/redux, vue, angular experience is nice) * Lead Fullstack developer (node/react/AWS knowledge) * UI/UX expert to help us evolve our product's UX. * Product Manager to look for ways to identify features customers would like and the like (should have worked on a successful product in the past)

On the tech side we user serverless to deploy lambda functions to AWS, all microservices are in node, some are typescript, others ES6 - looking to standardise this. We lean pretty heavily on AWS from a devops perspective. Since we're a team of 8 so far, there are lots of opportunities to work with ML/BI data analysis (Periscope), product enhancements, pretty much we're a very open company to all ideas.

Email me at kevin@joinreel.com if interested, remember this is on-site in santa monica, california only full time.

Hello Matt! Big admirer of the work USDS is doing. I'm curious if USDS ever showcases its work in public venues like conferences or local meetups in DC. I'd love to learn more about the things you're all building and the processes the team goes through more directly.

Cignition | Software Engineers: Full-Stack/Generalist; Machine Learning; Game Dev | San Mateo, CA, USA | FULL-TIME | ONSITE

Cignition is a small, growing, highly-collaborative education tech startup. We are looking for experienced software engineers for full-time positions, on-site in San Mateo. Compensation, stock options, and benefits are very competitive. We are not able to sponsor visas at this time.

Full-Stack/Generalist position: You should have enough real-world experience to demonstrate that you have good software fundamentals, you can pick up whatever is needed, and you can work independently and take ownership in our small team of engineers. You would work on back-end and front-end development, data analysis, AWS dev ops, and overall system architecture. We currently use Python/Flask/MongoDB on AWS, though you would get to decide future directions. Prior experience with any of these technologies is a plus, but we trust that you can learn anything you don't already know. You would also participate in defining the vision for our offerings.

This is to replace me as I head back to grad school. Our other engineer is primarily focused on game development, though he is super-sharp and shares the load for non-game work as well.

We are also looking for a second game dev, as well as a machine learning expert. The lines between these roles could blur if we find the right people.

Cignition is passionate about blending the arts and sciences of gameplay, teaching, and neuroscience to create immersive learning experiences for children. Our game, FogStone Isle, is loved by teachers, parents, and children. We're also launching an online micro-tutoring service which dovetails with our game (currently in trials in low-income schools). We believe in the importance of measuring the efficacy of our offerings, with a focus on improving students' conceptual understanding. This is a great opportunity to get in on the ground floor of a growing team that is developing a truly original series of games and interactive experiences.

Contact: jobs+hn@cignition.com https://cignition.com

Please ask if you have any questions!
