Felt | Frontend Engineer | Oakland, CA or REMOTE (US timezones) | Full Time | https://felt.com

Felt is the best way to make maps on the internet. It's surprisingly hard to make a map today, and people in 15+ industries rely on them to do their jobs. Climate change and the resulting natural disasters are forcing even more people to become map-makers, and Felt is here to meet that need. It's the first easy-to-use collaborative mapping software, founded by a team of technologists with a proven track-record. My co-founder and CEO, Sam, is a former YC founder who sold his previous company [1] and I'm an early Uber engineer.

We are on the lookout for our next frontend engineers. At this role, you will help build our beautiful interactive mapping front-end, pushing the boundaries of what's possible on an infinite canvas. Ideal candidates will have experience with Canvas, WebGL and other web graphics technologies, comfortable with complex UIs that work in multiplayer settings. Feel free to check out our blog on some of our work [2][3] and see if this excites you.

We are well-funded and and you can read more about it our funding here [4], and our announcement here [5]. Our terms are employee-friendly terms such as early exercise, a 10-year exercise window and even a matching 401(k).[6]

If you are an experienced frontend engineer, please reach out via hello@felt.com and mention HN!

I live in EU, earn approx €52,000 as a senior software engineer (whatever that might mean) and live a happy live with a house, mortgage, wife, children, ... Don't consider myself rich, but doing good. Should I change jobs?! $168,000 - $350,000 for a Software Engineer seems outrageous. What am I missing?

Living in the U.S. will get you a higher salary, not that small of taxes, but then extremely high cost of living. Homes are used by investors as assets to be traded and not lived in by people and we in the U.S. pay privatized costs for literally everything. However, those salaries are indeed extremely high. I am surprised given Figma was purchased by Adobe.

That’s a misrepresentation and basically using the Bay Area as a reference point. I’m in Chicago. Starting sw engineer salaries is probably around $90k-$100k. The housing nightmare exists but not as bad - depends on your school district. A good 3000 sq ft house in a suburb palatine/Arlington heights or Buffalo grove is around the $600k-$800k mark. You could obviously go smaller for a lower price.

Anonymous Mechatronics Company | Mechanical Engineer | West Midlands, UK | Full Time | Onsite

We're a small friendly 20 person company looking for a great mechanical engineer to help take the designs of our current range of industrial automation systems to the next level. We have customers in the pharmaceutical, automotive, semiconductor, and ophthalmic industries. All of our designs are in SolidWorks. We make a lot of bespoke machines as well as sell a range of standard machines.

We're a bit of a mess to be honest so we need someone to come in and make a big impact on this front which is where we are weakest.

Compensation would be £90,000 and 25 days holiday + bank holidays.

Please email pluses-ponds0r@icloud.com for more information and please accept our apologies for the anonymous posting.

Ride with GPS | Experienced Linux Systems Engineer & Senior Rails Developer | Systems Engineer within 2 hours of Portland OR, Rails Developer Remote OK | Full Time | https://ridewithgps.com/about We are the world's largest library of bike routes, and we enable cyclists to go on better rides, more often. We have a website and mobile apps that allow people to discover the best riding in their area, and get turn by turn navigation using either our mobile apps or the bike computer of their choosing. Come join us in taking Ride with GPS to the next level! We have one opening right now:

- Linux Systems Engineer: https://ridewithgps.com/careers/systems_engineer - Work the full deployment stack, from hardware to containers. We are looking for an experienced engineer practiced in the deployment of Linux based machines and services on top of them. We run on a rack of machines that we own, co-located in the Pittock, and we deploy services both directly on Linux as well as via containers. This is part SRE, part DevOps, part classic SysAdmin, with the occasional networking issue. We need someone who is within driving distance of our rack in Portland and who has experience working in a datacenter, but the majority of the job is in the deployment of services on those machines, not the machines themselves. Are you a jack of all trades, comfortable occasionally working with hardware, while being highly proficient in Linux and container based deployments? Maybe you are light on modern container orchestration but are highly capable and interested in learning? We'd love to talk to you!

- Senior Rails / API engineer: https://ridewithgps.com/careers/rails_developer - Support new feature development for all our teams, and scale our API to our next 10 million users. Rails monolith, in addition to supporting microservices. Pragmatic, solutions oriented, high impact.
