Can't claim ignorance: > Been posting here for months; didn't realize it was a problem. I'll refrain from doing so in future. The site is completely free (from ads also), so didn't feel I was stepping on any toes! --Matt

I did say that, but then realised that I was actually not doing anything wrong. The thread states: "Feel free to post any job that may interest HN readers from executive assistant to machine learning expert to CTO." My current post, which includes actual job openings, abides by that statement. Judging by the # of people that go ahead and click, I'd say readers here are interested in the jobs on WFH.io and therefore I…

I fixed the posting to avoid this pretext for ignoring the intent of the thread: "Please do not post recruiting firms or job boards."

It absolutely does. This is just spam.

Would appreciate if you explained why it's spam?

Tictail is the easiest way to start a beautiful, online store. We're now home to 45000 stores and plan to grow 3x over the next year. We care deeply about user experience and want to make e-commerce as accessible as starting a blog. As a result, more than 80% of our store owners would recommend us to a friend.

At Tictail, you'll be building something that helps people all over the world grow their own business from their passion. You’ll work with some of the best people you’ve ever met, making ambitious things, with a great amount of responsibility. Our stack is Python (Tornado, Flask), CoffeeScript/JavaScript (Node, React, Backbone), Redis, RabbitMQ and Elasticsearch. We host our infrastructure on AWS and manage it using Chef.

Because Tictail is nothing without our colleagues and our culture, we might not match your expectations of a normal recruitment process. We will definitely want to figure out if you’re smart and get things done, but more importantly we want to figure out if we click.

If this sounds interesting, get in touch at jobs+hn@tictail.com and tell us a few things about yourself and a project you've enjoyed working on. If you want to learn more about how we work and build product, you can take a look at our product blog (https://medium.com/tictail-makers) and code (http://github.com/tictail).

Thanks!

Where are we?

- Doesn’t matter - you can work from your preferred location. But in case you’re wondering, we’re in Hattiesburg, MS.

Who are we?

- http://www.schoolstatus.com

- SchoolStatus is a data framework for the K-12 education industry that combines a school district's disjointed data systems into one easily-accessed location. Our web-based interface allows educators to make data-driven decisions - regardless of previous technology experience. We also provide a mechanism for principals to deliver evaluation measures to teachers for real-time classroom feedback.

- Our backend engine provides mechanisms for automated data retrieval and sanitation, allowing the customer’s data to remain fresh with no interaction needed.

- Launched in January 2013, we’ve quickly become the data solution for roughly 50% of Mississippi public school districts and are currently migrating into other states. We’ve been revenue-driven and maintain profitability, which has made us attractive to potential funding sources and we’re currently considering our options.

Who are you?

- You are a talented, enthusiastic programmer that can’t wait to assist in the development of our backend engine and front-end interfaces. Our core technologies include:

* Ruby as primary language on backend. Due to lack of APIs on many third-party educational systems, data retrieval is often performed by various scraping methods. Experience with Mechanize, Nokogiri, Watir, and the likes are the icing on your cake.

* Ruby’s Padrino, a highly extensible framework built on Sinatra, is the glue connecting our backend to frontend.

* MongoDB, Redis, Postgresql, Elasticsearch, and Amazon Redshift provide our various data stores.

* Objective-C/UIKit powers our teacher evaluation instrument for iPad and you are totally okay with that.

* Angular.js on the frontend is something that makes you smile. Data visualizations created with Highcharts, D3, and Charts.js.

* By no means are we limited to the languages and technologies above. Solutions from other areas are always welcome - as long as they play nice with others (Flash.)

What will we give you?

- Competitive salary with full health, vision, and dental benefits.

- Retirement plan (comparable to the big guys that have way more meetings) with company match that will make sure your cohabitating hamsters are well-cared for in their old age.

- Flexible vacation structure (meaning just tell us you’re going out of town), including a company-provided condominium in Florida. Yes, we have a condo.

What will you give us?

- Loyalty to the company goals as a whole and a desire to serve the greater good.

- Flexibility to perform outside of your specific role when it’s needed, included talking with customers and attending trade shows from time to time.

- A good sense of humor - because nobody likes a boring job.
