#14WePay.com - Palo Alto, CA - Full-time (Relocation assistance provided)
WePay is looking for talented and motivated software engineers to join our rapidly expanding team. Our transaction volume has more than tripled year-over-year, and we need your help to scale our customers’ payments to even higher levels over the next few years. We are eager to grow our team of engineers who love programming, take pride in the quality of their code, and are at least decent at ping pong (rock climbing is a nice-to-have).
Requirements:
You must be a great coder that loves to write efficient and maintainable code. We believe that great coders can adapt to whichever new language they need to, whether it’s Java, Python, PHP, Javascript, C++, Scala, Ruby, or any other SEO-optimized buzzword, so we don’t care what background you have (unless you have solely coded in brainfxck). And in fact, we have outgrown our current PHP-MySQL environment and are in the process of architecting our next-generation service-oriented architecture, so we will be excited to make full use of your experience and perspectives as we select the right tools for the job.
You must be able to take complete ownership over a bug, feature, or entire project and drive it to completion. We have to trust that each of our team members can work in relative independence because we hate micro-managing.
You must be open-minded, flexible, and have a pragmatic approach to solving problems. The payments industry can be baffling at times, so we value people who can persevere and continue to make progress with a positive attitude.
One or more of the following specialized skills would be awesome:
* Front-end expertise, including JavaScript, CSS, AngularJS
* Back-end expertise, including extensive database experience
* High Availability and Distributed Systems
* Big Data experience, including Hadoop and/or Storm
* Machine Learning and Modeling
* Experience in Risk and Fraud Detection
* Experience in payments and PCI compliance
* Expertise in Security
* Team Lead experience
If you have any interest or questions about WePay, please contact me directly at steven at wepay.com. I'm an engineer, not a recruiter, so your email will get a response.

#15OpenSignal - London, UK (Full time, permanent)
At OpenSignal we're using mobile apps to tap into the smart phones we're all carrying around with us to build up global crowdsourced sensor networks. Our first sensor network is for wireless signal [1] where we are building a global database on the coverage and performance of wireless networks (both mobile + WiFi) on a scale that has never before been possible. Our second sensor network is WeatherSignal [2], which uses the barometers, thermometers and hygrometers on smart phones to crowdsource weather data and we have already published a scientific paper [3] showing the potential of this approach. If the concept of crowdsourced sensor networks appeals to you too then please get in touch. We are hiring for all manner of different roles right not (backend, frontend, UX/UI & data science) but most of all we are just looking for smart, like minded people rather than people with specific, existing skills. We also recently raised our $4million series A [4] from Qualcomm Ventures, O'Reilly Alphatech Ventures & Passion Capital so are growing fast.
