Ask HN: Who is hiring right now?

M-KOPA Solar (http://www.m-kopa.com/) | REMOTE (GMT-1 to GMT+3 only) | Azure / .NET

M-KOPA Solar provides solar energy systems for lighting and television to customers in emerging markets. Our systems are sold on credit and customers' loan payments are enforced via embedded software running that enable/disable the systems based on payments. Once a customer has finished paying for their system they own it outright and remote controls are disabled.

We currently have a customer base of over 700,000 households in 4 markets and are growing quickly. While the impact of the pandemic on our core business will be uncertain, we think there is more merit than ever in the social mission of providing our users with systems that make their homes a more pleasant and safer place to be, as well as in providing TVs and radios that can provide lifesaving public health information. We are also well capitalized and in a stable position financially.

Our engineering team is fully remote, but we currently only hire in the GMT-1 to GMT+3 timezone range to allow for a high degree of synchronous interaction (put differently: West Africa to Eastern Europe, North Pole to South Pole).

We are currently looking for a variety of senior .NET engineering and engineering management roles, so if you have that background/interest please reach out. We are also looking very seriously for a senior infrastructure/devops manager with experience on large Azure deployments.

If you are interested please reach out - owen.scott@m-kopa.com.

Loop54 | Frontend/Fullstack Engineer | Stockholm, Sweden | ONSITE

Loop54 is a search/relevance engine as-a-service, marketed primarily toward the small–medium–large segment of the e-commerce market. We can probably achieve the most relevant results in the world for our client base right now, through what's fundamentally pretty basic AI techniques[1]. We have the ability to tailor result pages specifically to individual users.

What is currently one of the bottlenecks is that we have no useful feedback loop to the e-commerce stores that use us. To them, the search engine is a black box that does AI magic. We are working on an analytics portal where we can present information on the decisions made by the engine, as well as some basic levers and knobs for the managers to operate.

However, we want this to turn out really good, and for that we need someone willing to be an authority on front-end web development, from concept through design to implementation.

As long as you are intelligent, nice, a good cultural fit, and most importantly, either experienced or at least want to grow and learn in the web frontend area, don't hesitate to reach out if you're interested.

[1]: What the AI does for us is let us generalize over visitor behaviour, such that each individual action is less important, and the general sentiment of the users is what counts.
