FlareWorks - http://www.flareworks.co - San Francisco, CA. Bay Area Only

Interested in changing the world? Neither are we! But we are interested in having fun and building cool software.

FlareWorks is a mobile messaging startup headquartered in San Francisco, California. Our mission is to build a platform for contextual communication between family and friends that is easier, simpler and safer than texting. Our company’s visual messaging service —called Flares— uses visual cues, instead of text, to provide communication shortcuts between friends and family.

We're a seed funded, early stage startup, so this is an opportunity to get in on the ground-floor. You would be engineer number 2 or 3. We're looking for mobile developers, both iOS and Android to help us take our application and platform to the next level. Our mobile apps are the face of the organization and, as such, you’ll be on the front lines of creating an application and experience that has the potential to be used by millions of people every day.

Our Stack: * Node for our API. * Erlang for our platform.

What we offer: * We're not fans of 9-5 with a lunch break. Work when you want, where you want. Results matter. "Seat Time" does not. * Unlimited PTO. Take the time off you need, when you need it. We don't offer prizes for 'attendance'. * 5K equipment budget. Buy what you want; After a year, it's yours to keep. * Company outings. We like to get out and do things as a team. Lunches, dinners, games, volunteering, concerts. We're always on the lookout for things to do. * A real voice. We want to know what you think. If you have an idea or think something isn't working, we want to hear about it. Your voice counts. * Generous options and an actual competitive salary ( no low balling + options bait and switch here ).

What we're looking for: * Senior level Android and iOS engineers. * UX and visual design chops. * Meticulous attention to details. * Android: * Animation and the hardware accelerated rendering pipeline as well as OpenGL ES. * Location, Content and Media SDK experience. * iOS: * Core Graphics, Core Animation, Core Data, Core Location * Comfort with rapid iteration and real-time team collaboration.

If this sounds like a good fit for you, email us (jobs@flareworks.co) and we'll talk.

PACKETZOOM ENGINEERING

Burlingame, CA (just south of San Francisco in the bay area) FULL TIME H1B VISA Transfer ok for the right candidate. TN VISA ok. REMOTE considered for the perfect candidate

Mobile Networks are different. And yet we continue using the same legacy protocol stack (TCP/HTTP/SSL) to connect mobile devices to the cloud. If you want to help change that, come join us.

Packetzoom is rethinking the whole stack from the ground up. You get to hack network and/or security protocols, innards of mobile operating systems and build a global distributed system around brand new protocols. It's a very small (but well funded) team so everyone contributes in everything. But following two are the roles where we have specific needs to fill right now.

1) SENIOR ENGINEERING LEADER

IF you have shipped products or built services where you (at least) actually had to deal with unix at the syscall level (either in the userspace or kernel) in C/C++ code, I want to talk to you. If you've shipped and maintained the product for a few years, I really want to talk to you. You'd be responsible for leading the team the team that builds and runs the packetzoom protocol on mobile clients (iOS, Android and any others we decide to pursue) as well as our globally distributed cluster of servers. No pressure ;-)

2) UNIX HACKER WITH AN ANDROID BENT

IF you're the kind of person who isn't happy until you've fixed up your android phone so you can ssh into it to, say, kill offending processes and/or run cron jobs, I want to talk to you. You'd be responsible for our Android platform (so you'd be writing some combination of Java and C++ code). In the process, you'd get to learn all about vagaries of mobile platforms and mobile networks at the global scale. In addition, you'll have your pick of dozens of delicious, hard problems to solve in the realm of distributed systems, unix'y things, iOS stuff, security stuff etc. if you're so inclined.

I'm a Founder/CEO/CTO. You will work directly with me. We're well funded but still a very small team (< 10 people) So you get to enjoy an early stage team environment but not so much the high financial risk that goes with such things
