Ask HN: Who is hiring? (November 2020)

Great question! We recently migrated from AWS to Azure, so it's new for the entire team. In that sense it would be beneficial, but since we are running almost everything on Kubernetes (and they are very similar) I wouldn't see it as a requirement.

This is a tricky question to answer. :) First and foremost we want to find the right people for our team. In order to hire people remotely across Europe we need to adapt compensation rates based on where you're located. However, if you apply from Switzerland you're probably competing with candidates from countries where the asking rate is lower, so that may be a disadvantage if everything else is "equal".

Please email us at careers@fr24.com if you want to clarify your individual situation before applying. Alternatively you can apply via the link and put this question in the "cover letter".

Regarding the financial number that you reference it's unfortunately not quite accurate. The employee count in the annual report only includes employees in our Swedish company. Remote staff in other countries work with us as invoicing contractors and do not get counted as employees within the context of an annual report.

10x Genomics | Pleasanton, CA & San Francisco, CA | Remote (US Only) or Onsite

Join 10x Genomics to accelerate scientific research and improve human health.

We're a rapidly-growing biotech company that develops software, hardware, and chemistry that enable researchers to study diseases such as cancer and Alzheimer's at an unprecedented resolution. We went public last year as the largest healthcare IPO of 2019 (ticker: TXG). We recently acquired two companies, ReadCoor and CartaNA, who have both been commercializing in situ analysis. This opens up a number of interesting product and technical challenges that I'm personally very excited about!

Software is an integral part of the 10x Genomics product. We create software that generates and analyzes data for scientists to explore. We utilize Go, React, Typescript, and Electron to create intuitive visualization and web applications. Our data pipelines are primarily written using Numpy/Scipy/Pandas stack, but we're making increasing use of Rust.

We've always been remote-friendly and are looking for awesome people at various levels in these roles:

- Product Manager

- Frontend Engineer

- Full-Stack Engineer

- Backend Engineer

- Security Engineer

- Embedded Software Engineer

- Product Designer

We look forward to hearing from you and good luck on your search!

Chipper Cash | Software Engineer, ML / Decision Scientist | SF HQ + REMOTE | Full Time

https://chippercash.com

We are growing fast here at Chipper Cash, the largest peer-to-peer cross-border money transfer platform in Africa. We are looking for exceptional teammates that can help us in our mission to provide financial services to the next billion folks on the continent.

We're backed by some of the best VCs (recently raised a Series A) and have a talented team that's already scaled the product to millions of users (ex Facebook, Google, Imgur, Airbnb). Stripe's recent $200m+ acquisition of Paystack reflects the maturity of the African tech ecosystem and market, which is ripe for disruption.

We're hiring across a multitude of remote roles:

• (Senior) Software Engineer, Intelligence/ML: https://www.notion.so/chippercash/Software-Engineer-Intellig...

• Decision Scientist, Intelligence: https://www.notion.so/chippercash/Decision-Scientist-Intelli...

Data stack: Postgres, Fivetran, Snowflake, dbt, Prefect, Dask, Flask, Mode

Our data is well-labeled, and you'll have access to a host of domain knowledge for further labeling via operations/data analysts (we have built Retool dashboards for this). We're also employing a slightly different philosophy to our ML/Data hiring: https://www.notion.so/chippercash/The-End-to-End-Machine-Lea...

Our Series A announcement: https://techcrunch.com/2020/06/16/african-payment-startup-ch...

Also looking for senior engineers skilled at Postgres, TypeScript, Node and React (on top of Heroku): https://chippercash.com/jobs/software-engineer.html

Happy to chat about growth numbers, product roadmap and overall vision. If interested, shoot over an email: samee@chippercash.com
