Connexity (online advertising) - Los Angeles area, Camarillo, CA

As a division of Shopzilla, we help advertisers reach their audience with less money. We help publishers make more money by better selling their audience. Everybody wins.

We're looking to add a talented, highly motivated DevOps engineer. You'll build automation into processes that are unnecessarily manual, identify opportunities to improve redundancy/fail-soft capability, and extend our already comprehensive system monitoring. You'll coordinate the test and release of code developed by company engineers at remote locations while working co-located with the core team of system developers. On days when not everything is running smoothly, we’re looking for someone that can develop a solid understanding of triage options and trade-offs, and eventually call the shots in bringing everything back in line.

We are searching for an engineer that likes a challenge, wants an opportunity to work with cutting edge technologies, and thrives in small teams. We do a fair amount of big data streaming and reporting. Our architecture is unique and our software stack purposefully diverse. Everyone on the team possesses a strong sense of ownership of their work. Your contributions will be immediate and will be felt through out the company.

I can vouch for the fact that working at Connexity is fun, fast-paced, and open-ended. No dogma here. We're all about choosing the best tools and processes to get the job done.

If you don't already have intimate knowledge of Hadoop, Hbase, and Redis... you will. It could be a great chance to grow your skill set.

The company believes that happy employees make for great work and a family atmosphere. Our locations feature breakfast bars, free lunches, etc. Shopzilla has offices in LA, San Diego, Camarillo and London.

San Francisco, CA - Gliffy

I've been retained by the founders of Gliffy to find them a talented Sr. Software Engineer (full stack) to help build upon their already innovative SaaS diagraming/graphing product (www.gliffy.com).

This role would allow someone the opportunity to make a measurable impact as part of a small, but super bright (and fun) team. Gliffy is established and quite profitable, but still operates like a startup (hackatons, quarterly outings, innovation days) and the founders are focused on satisfaction- both from customers and employees alike. They are based in SF and allow engineers to work from home Mondays and Fridays (alongside some other nice perks).

Check the link for the full job specs and feel free to email me if it sparks your interest.
