Need any FORTH programmers? ;) http://www.forth.org/KittPeakForthPrimer.pdf

This is why I mention things like "surprisingly current toolchain for academia" :-) My personal philosophy is staying current costs far less in the end that falling behind and then needing a giant transition...

Then you'll love Mitch Bradley's CForth and OpenFirmware Forth, which he is always keeping current and up to date, including arm64 support! ;)

Vaayu | Remote (European Timezones) | Full-Time | https://www.vaayu.tech/

At Vaayu, we are on a mission to fight climate change. E-commerce has a big climate impact so we are focusing our efforts on helping retailers measure and reduce their carbon emissions. Calculating carbon manually can take months and is very expensive. Our goal is to make carbon analytics easily accessible to every online retailer.

Our automated software is already serving sustainability leaders like Klarna, Wunderman Thompson, Armed Angels or Organic Basics, linking up with shop platforms to deliver the tools necessary for retailers to take charge of their environmental footprint.

We are a distributed company based in Berlin, with an international and diverse team throughout Europe. Last year we closed an $11.5 million seed funding round led by Atomico.

If you are an innovator, want to work at a purpose-driven startup, and would like to collaborate with us in shaping the culture of a growing team on a mission to make a positive impact on our planet, we’d love to hear from you!

Our current stack includes: Golang, JavaScript, Python, Vue.js, D3.js, PostgreSQL, Redis, Neo4j, BigQuery, Kafka, Pub/Sub, Google Cloud, Linux, Kubernetes, Docker and Terraform. We are also open to other technologies.

We're currently looking for a Golang Software Engineer, more details: https://grnh.se/5f1d82c2teu

Oh man I am trying to apply but the application has so many odd questions I have never seen on any job application before: - "What are the most important things that shaped your personality and world-view?" - "What are your prospects, dreams, or expectations, career-wise?" - "Upload a screenshot of your desktop" - "Explain the organization of your desktop" The questions related to needing a photo of my desktop are fo…

Because they are trying to discourage people from applying. Given their post history on whoishiring threads, I would confidently say they are just prepping to H1B someone.

Looking at their linkedin profile, they appear to be Slovenia-based so I'm saying that theory is likely incorrect and they're also unlikely to pay US-value compensation.

Are you willing to hire someone who walks with an air of sophistication, perhaps even gumption, but little to no swagger?

Is this a reference to a literary work I’m not aware of?

No, just found the job text weird.

If anything, "walking with an air of sophistication" comes from Steven Seagal's worst movie of all time Attack Force.

BillionToOne | Menlo Park, CA; hybrid or remote (US only) | Full-time

BillionToOne (YC S17) is ranked at the top 5% of Y Combinator companies with $300M+ in funding from top VC firms. We have developed a DNA molecular counter that increases cfDNA diagnostic resolution by over 1,000x. Our first product, UNITY, is the first and only non-invasive prenatal test that can directly screen an unborn baby and assess its risk for: common and severe recessive gene disorders; chromosomal abnormalities; fetal sex; and fetal antigens from a single tube of blood from the pregnant mother. This greatly improves the quality of care and is on its path to becoming the next standard-of-care.

Our software stack includes Django, AWS, React/Typescript, Terraform, and many other standard tools. We're a small, but agile software team that prioritizes rapid iteration and continuous feedback to evolve our product. As a biotech company, we inherently need to always work cross functionally. If you enjoy this style of work, please reach out!

We're hiring software engineers, a director of bioinformatics, and many other roles. You can email me directly at kwu@billiontoone.com with your resume or apply through the links below.
