iCapital: Lead Designer New York, NY We believe in simple interfaces, clean design, and pixel perfection. Our design is driven by a strong desire to build an experience that people love and a product that they use with ease.

The ideal candidate has experience working as a web designer on fast moving small teams to deliver production web designs, a desire to “move fast and break things” (ship quickly, iterate quickly, emphasis on action over planning but still deliberate about design), and the ability to discern what is important in order to build the simplest solution and design to a problem.

We expect excellent wireframing and storyboarding skills, technical skills in Photoshop and Illustrator, and process and communication abilities. We expect strong self-motivation and an inner desire to perform at the top of your discipline.

Salary is $110k+ w/options, negotiable. Strong company-provided benefits (health insurance, snacks, cellphone, computer equipment of your choice, etc.)

E-mail your portfolio (including examples of your web-based work) to jobs@icapitalnetwork.com About iCapital Network We use modern technology to connect private equity fund managers with institutional investors. Today, and for the past 30yrs, our industry has operated in the same inefficient and fragmented manner and its time for some evolution.

$500 - 750 billion of capital flows into alternative investment funds every year. Almost 100% of these capital flows are facilitated via telephone or rudimentary use of email. Lets change it up a bit!

Our company was founded by a team of passionate individuals who have raised billions of dollars of private equity capital and built highly innovative financial software and data businesses. Over the past 15 months, we have formalized key strategic partnerships with some of the leading firms across the private equity industry. We're 7 people at the moment, pre product, recently completed our Series A round, and are in go mode! Email me at - noah@icapitalnetwork.com

Expensify-San Francisco, CA-Fulltime, Programmer Extraordinaire Hey there! Allow us to introduce ourselves. We are Expensify and we do "expense reports that don't suck!" (Google "expensify" to read more.) We're getting crushed under an ever-growing pile of super awesome work, and I need one bright soul to help us dig our way out. I can guarantee you fun, an amazing opportunity to learn, and the siren's call of distan…

Would this be an in-house position or is remote also an option?

In-house is obviously ideal, but we've got a few remote folks and are always open to more -- especially if you're willing to regularly travel to SF (monthly is best, but quarterly works too). Ultimately we recognize that amazing people always come with strings attached. Let us know what your constraints are and I'm sure we can make it work.

Big Data/Distributed Systems Software Engineer

AppMonsta - Palo Alto - REMOTE

AppMonsta collects massive amounts of data about mobile apps and turns it into actionable metrics for a wide variety of business customers ranging from investors to health care companies to startups. We really love data, building distributed systems, and helping people understand complicated market dynamics through our data.

We're looking for a distributed systems/big data software engineer to join our distributed team. You'll take ownership of our crawl & data pipeline, keeping them running with high uptime, scaling them up to handle load, and adding new data sources and new features to help our customers make even better decisions. Experience with distributed systems and/or big data is a huge bonus - we're looking for people that have a good intuition about what good architecture looks like, and who can grow into leadership roles.

Our current tech stack is mostly Python, Linux, AWS (EC2, S3, & EMR mostly), MongoDB, Celery and Redis. If you haven't worked with individual pieces of this before it's fine - we like working with smart people that are comfortable working in a distributed systems/big data/cloud environment. We're happy to help you get up to speed with anything you haven't seen before. We practice peer code review and continuous deployment on all our code and systems.

Our entire team works remotely. We're very flexible about where and when you work, as long as you ship code, keep systems online, and are reachable by other team members for part of the day. We stay in touch via a team chatroom and weekly team video chats, with impromptu 1-on-1 video chats whenever there's a detailed issue to discuss. To make this work, you'll need to be in a compatible timezone (between PDT(UTC-08) and CET(UTC+1)), and be very fluent writing and speaking English. Like getting out of the house to work? Ask about our mobile Internet subsidy:)

This is a full time, longterm opportunity. If this sounds exciting, send me an email at luka@appmonsta.com, and we can get the conversation started.
