Augmend | Software Engineering + Machine Learning Engineering/Applied Scientist | onsite Redmond/Seattle, WA | Full-time jobs: https://augmend.com/careers, company: https://augmend.com

Augmend is developing human x ai x human collaboration for software development teams, reducing collaboration friction through an AI-assisted team workspace that has the ability to hook into various team tools, actions, and workflows paired with an assistant. Our goal is to build the AI teammate and dev tool connections that make it possible to 10x dev teams as a whole, not just individual developers by truly understanding the flow of actions, information, etc. on a team and being there to help out just like a senior engineer might, replacing your likely out-of-date documentation and reducing time burnt communicating and figuring out the context of why and how things are done on a team. We're pre-launch but have raised a seed round so we're hiring the first engineers outside of the 2 founders (myself - AI background, and https://news.ycombinator.com/user?id=timmisiak - dev tools background). We love devs as customers and want to build the best AI-dev tools platform in the world geared at ML-augmented developer capabilities.

We're looking for founding engineer types who can help us plan out the product, move fast, build great things for our first set of customers, and influence the culture we want for the company while still a super small and cohesive team. This is a chance to be among the first couple hires! There are four positions currently open, and we call out specialities but are looking for folks who like to put on their generalist hat too and learn outside their core are.

* Software Engineer, Frontend - Design and develop our web based multiplayer team space. Know and crea deeply about performance and great developer experiences.

* Software Engineer, Backend - Develop the services that support cross-team communication and interfacing with the ML models, working on AWS infra and distributed systems problems.

* Software Engineer, Applications - Develop the client applications that make all this possible, running apps across Windows, MacOS, and Linux.

* Machine Learning Engineer/Applied Scientist - Design and develop the end to end natural language understanding systems that power our team actions/context understanding and assistant. Work with other engineers to set up evaluation, training, and data pipelinee/workflows across search (currently using embeddings based search techniques), information retrieval, and Q&A + natural language generation (currently using LLMs).

Earlier quoted context omitted.

It is a high impact high volatility opportunity. It’s not for everyone. If you can’t pass a drug test or a SF86, or need a ton of income, it might not be for you. But it is for some. Accept it for the tour of duty it is. Instead of an equity lottery ticket, you’re getting paid to improve public goods at nation state scale. We all seek different comp.

USDS requires an SF86 now??

I was told I’d have to pass one. Might not apply to all roles or assignments. Ask your USDS recruiter before the process if you have concerns you won’t be cleared.

Alice & Bob | Software engineering (multiple roles) | Full-time | Paris, France | https://alice-bob.com/

We are a Paris-based startup founded in 2020, competing in the race towards building the world’s first universal, fault-tolerant quantum computer.

Our approach to error correction is based on the cat qubit, which belongs to the family of superconducting qubits. It is designed to autonomously suppress certain types of errors at the hardware level and was developed by Alice & Bob and its academic partners. This allows scaling up the number of qubits in a more hardware efficient way, and puts us in the race against tech giants such as AWS (which are also following this approach), Google and IBM.

We are looking for software engineers to help building the framework controlling the hardware equipment and experiments, as well as the toolkit to automate designing and simulating the superconducting chips.

* Software Engineer - Instrument Compiler https://apply.workable.com/alice-bob/j/E4AC939F65/ (C/C++, LLVM, Python)

* Software Engineer - Design Toolkit Developer https://apply.workable.com/alice-bob/j/9A84BDD1B3/ (Python)

* Software Engineer - Experimentation framework https://apply.workable.com/alice-bob/j/8787158587/ (Python, C)

We are 60 and counting (PhDs, engineers) and growing fast! Feel free to reach out to know more (alexandre dot thomas at alice-bob.com) or to apply directly.

MixRank (YC S11) | Software Engineers | 100% REMOTE (Global) | Full-Time

MixRank processes petabytes of data every month from web crawls, Google Play Store, Apple App Store, social media, and dozens of other sources. We have hundreds of customers using our data products including Google, Amazon, Facebook, Intel, and Adobe, across industries Sales, Marketing, Finance, and Security.

Team is 32 full-time, full-remote. We're growing, profitable, employee-owned, no dependence on outside funding.

We are looking for passionate individuals for whom programming is not just a job but it’s something they love to do. We're obsessed with computers, programming, big data, databases, compilers, hardware, math, data science, and the internet. Does this sound like you? Please apply to join our team.

Our code base is very friendly to new contributors. You'll have a fully-functional development environment within hours (fully automated) and be pushing commits on your first day. Deployments to production happen multiple times per day and finish in less than 2 minutes. Effectively all of our codebase is written in Python, SQL, and Javascript/TypeScript. The core technologies you'll need familiarity with to be productive are Python, PostgreSQL, Linux, and Git.

We operate at a larger scale than typical startups. We operate two datacenters with high performance servers we've built that are capable of dealing with the volumes of data we process. We've implemented our own distributed file system. We do full-scale web crawls. We download and perform static analysis on all Android APKs and iOS IPAs that are published. Unlike a typical startup where you'll spend half of your time in meetings, and the other half fixing bugs from Jira tickets— at MixRank you'll get to challenge yourself with difficult technical problems that will force you to grow as an individual.

WunderGraph | Senior DevOps Engineer | Full-time | Remote in EMEA | https://wundergraph.com/jobs/senior-devops-engineer We are building WunderGraph cloud, the infraless API developer platform. Without a single thought about infrastructure, developers can integrate any back-end in seconds and deploy to production in minutes. The underlying technology makes deployments insanely fast, but at least in this case, we do need to create and maintain a robust infrastructure, so our users don’t have to. :)

As a DevOps Engineer at WunderGraph, you will be in charge of

- Helping the team to implement, deploy and maintain the necessary infrastructure

- Operating and orchestrating our cloud infrastructure

- Defining adequate monitoring of our cloud services and virtual machines

- Implementing and deploying measures to make our cloud even more robust, secure and scalable across the globe / on the edge

- Automating as much as possible

- Efficient use of our cloud resources (traffic, load, provisioning)

- Documenting and planning new solutions

Earlier quoted context omitted.

I have really mixed feelings about this. Not a fan of typical government jobs, but the FAQ reads so much more like a startup. Is it true? What does the compensation look like (broadly)?

Per provided link https://www.usds.gov/apply : "Salaries in government change every year. For 2023, you may be paid up to $183,500 depending on where you are located in the United States."

The federal government pays pretty well for scientists and engineers.

I've got a few friends at JPL and they are paid around that.

I was a researcher under UC Regents many years ago, run by the state of California. That pay, however, was terrible. When I left for private industry I asked for double what I had been making and they considered me a bargain.
