The Ladders - New York City

Looking for full time on site developers.

We hire people, not skills.

Some stuff we use/do across our company:

Java, Scala, Backbone.js, Storm, RabbitMQ, Puppet, Sass, Responsive Design, Objective-C and on and on.

Ideal candidates probably have at least 5-7 years experience

Here is "job description", if you are interested, you can email me directly: sallen@theladders.com

--

We’re looking for a few good programmers to join our team and help us achieve our mission of “the right person for the right job.”

Instead of giving you a list of buzzwords to describe the role, we’ll tell you about a project we started recently:

A few months back, a small team of engineers and designers at The Ladders got together to design a new product. We started off by interviewing some of our customers to learn about their needs. Using that information, we held design studios and brainstorming sessions to flesh out what the actual features and user experience would be like.

On the front-end, we decided to build a new Javascript-powered rich UI using responsive design techniques. Many people are working on responsive design for content-based sites, but few are doing it for browser-based applications.

On the back-end, we designed an Event Driven Architecture that makes use of Event Sourcing. Instead of updating a relational database in-place when things change, we store a series of discrete application events. We can then replay those events to create the state of the world at any point in the past, right up to the present. (Yes, we’ve built a time machine!)

Does this sound like the sort of thing you’d like to do? If it is, we’d like to hear from you.

In return for your passion and commitment to code quality, you’ll enjoy an awesome work environment with perks like: Unlimited vacation days! Yes, unlimited! Quarterly hackathons A game room and a well-stocked kitchen Exciting events including holiday parties, picnics, talent shows, pumpkin carving and more Company sponsored athletic teams Competitive salary, bonus and stock options Health/Dental/Vision Insurance, 401K

Amsterdam, the Netherlands. Interns OK, no remote work.

Silk (www.silkapp.com) is looking for a DevOps engineer, and front-end and full-stack engineers: http://jobs.silkapp.com/

We're building a product that makes it easy for people to create sites with content that is easy to query, visualize and share. On a deeper level, our vision is to bring the semantic web to the masses and build an amazing company around that.

We're working on many interesting and challenging problems, with a custom-built Haskell graph-database on the back-end and a cutting-edge Functional Reactive client-side framework in Javascript on the front-end. The team is still small (~11 people), so you'll be able to make a large impact. We are well-funded by top-tier VCs and located in the city center of Amsterdam.

Administrate (http://www.getadministrate.com/) in Edinburgh, Scotland.

We're looking for 2 full time developers. Remote work is OK, but we're also moving into some fantastic offices at the Edinburgh Tech Cube (http://www.techcu.be) with spectacular views of Arthur's seat and the Meadows.

Job description can be found on our about page (http://www.getadministrate.com/about) and we're using a combination of technologies:

- Crufty old PHP (being refactored), and newer PHP (Doctrine)

All new development is being done with:

- Python, SQL Alchemy, Flask, and AngularJS

- Bootstrap UI framework

We're looking for smart people that get things done using the above techs.

We're growing really quickly, have a small team, a challenging product that's mission critical for our clients, and we're located in one of the most beautiful cities in the world with remote workers across the Central Belt of Scotland.

If you're outside the EU, we can look into visa sponsorship in very special cases, but this can be a long and difficult process, particularly for the UK.

Email me if interested, my name is John: jjp@getadministrate.com
