Ask HN: Who is hiring? (January 2014)

We're looking for full-time software engineers to help change the beverage alcohol business. Our stack is Rails backed by Postgres with Solr for search.

About the company. Ever wonder how bars and restaurants buy their alcohol? SevenFifty is modernizing the wholesale beverage alcohol industry, which is massive but technologically antiquated. We're working with leading wholesalers, bars, restaurants, and wine stores across the country. We're funded, have revenues, and are on track to being profitable without additional funding.

About your role. You’ll be an early member of the engineering team and will tackle a wide range of problems. You’ll get exposure to all aspects of web application development. You'll work on hard problems like search and the processing of structured and unstructured datasets. You’ll own user-facing features from conception and design to deployment. You’ll also learn about the wine and spirits industry, which is intellectually rich, occasionally bizarre, and a ton of fun. (If interested, we’ll even help you further your formal education in wine, spirits, or beer.)

You can email me directly at steve@sevenfifty.com.

About OpenEye Scientific Software, Inc: OpenEye Scientific Software provides software to the pharmaceuticals industry for molecular modeling and cheminformatics. It has done so since 1997 in its continuing mission to provide novel software, new science and better business practices to the industry. Central to our approach is the importance of shape and electrostatics as primary variables of molecular description, platform-independent code for high-throughput 2D and 3D modeling, and a preference for the rigorous rather than the ad hoc.

With offices in the United States, Germany & Japan, OpenEye Scientific Software is a global company. However, with fewer than 50 employees we offer a unique working culture. We believe that work should be fun and our working environment supports this philosophy. For the third year we have been a recipient of the Alfred P. Sloan Award for Business Excellence in Workplace Flexibility.
