#103Like solving BIG problems? Like working with BIG data? Want to have BIG fun? Then JumpCloud wants you. We're looking for a senior developer to be the next member of our small, agile, awesome engineering team. You would be an integral member of the development team helping to design and build the next generation of cloud security software.
At JumpCloud (formerly SafeInstance) we're solving complex problems in the cloud using the latest and greatest technologies, like MongoDB, Hadoop, Node JS, Vagrant, Puppet, Express JS, etc... If you enjoy solving challenging technical problems using the latest technologies, then this is the job for you. But wait, you haven't used those technologies? No worries: we're open minded and we believe that good engineering is not technology specific.
Looking for... --Willingness to learn and embrace new technologies, languages, and frameworks --4+ years of programming in either C/C++, Java, Python, Ruby, or Javascript. --3+ years experience building web based applications/web sites. --Skills with SQL and querying databases, bonus points if you've worked with a NoSQL DB such as MongoDB, Riak, etc. --Web UI development in Javascript using JQuery, ExtJS, Backbone JS, Angular JS, or equivalent framework/api. --Comfortable with Linux/OSX/Unix as desktop development environment. --Familiarity with networking and network security is a huge plus.
JumpCloud is an early stage, stealth mode, venture backed cloud security business based in beautiful downtown Boulder, Colorado. We offer cutting edge hardware and tools, full benefits (medical, dental, 401(k), etc.) and a fast paced but casual startup working environment. Local or relocatable applicant preferred, but remote applicant considered. Flexible working hours. Office is right on the Pearl St. Mall in Boulder, stumbling distance to hundreds of bars and restaurants, not to mention the epic hiking, biking and climbing opportunities in the Flatirons. All employees learn to write buffer overflows and pick locks while drinking scotch.

#104Think of it as "Kickstarter for Causes". We're a spin-out from CustomInk where a strong corporate parent allows for stability but the spin-out allows for a startup mentality designed for speed and individual impact
We're forming a seed team and hiring a
* Director Of Engineering
* Product Manager
* Visual Designer (with a strong ux/ui sense)
* Lead Engineer
* Full-stack Engineer
Starting with t-shirts, we will grow out to encompass the fundraising process. And we already have the backing to do so. Look out for our TV campaigns coming soon.
As you may surmise, we're no ordinary startup. Having a corporate backer, whose values and principles are reflected in this spinout, we get to retain the benefit of stability from CustomInk while enjoying the speed of a startup.
Where are we now?
We've already implemented a mobile-first, responsive design (cart included). CoffeeScript. Jenkins. New Relic. Agile, light Kanban. It's time to grow our platform.
We're data driven, funnels are monitored though GA/Kissmetrics and we have seen significant, measurable improvements based on our process.
I've been told many a time that we are a "sane startup". Not something that most startups can claim.
Interested in hearing more? Send me an email at:
jchoong@customink.com
with the position in the subject line and a brief description of what you're done (and your github username if applicable)

#106Earlier quoted context omitted.
I'm pretty stringent about that -- if you click the employer's job link, you'll see: "We'll work with you wherever you are (in the US) or help you relocate to Portland, OR."
My apologies, I misread that as "work with you to help you relocate". It's great to see a site dedicated to WFH. I wish you every success with it!

- Building our next generation of APIs (for both internal and external consumption)
- Creating new mapping and data visualization experiences

I've been an engineer at Trulia for just over a year now and can honestly say that it is a really fun company to work for. There's a great culture of letting people run with projects that really interest them and drive the entire engineering organization forward.
The compensation and perks are fantastic including:
- Great health benefits
- Unlimited vacation
- Great location in downtown San Francisco (1 min from BART, 10 min from Caltrain)
