Augmate (http://www.augmate.com)

Location: New York City

Businesses and their employees are stuck, held in place by processes that have changed little since the Industrial Revolution.

So we're building something different --

a new way of seeing work.

A way that removes the traditional barriers of time, distance, and even uncertainty.

Its foundation is a team united by a single mission: To bring about a world where everyone can work without friction.

That team is growing --

+ Senior Front-End dev (know your microjs vs mvc, can build a BDDed SPA. Bonus: eye towards design)

+ Senior Android dev (know your RxAndroid, Retrofit, Robolectric, and feel comfortable with IoC and TDD)

+ Backend/data person who can help us work at scale (know difference between Kafka, Akka, Hadoop)

We implement our mission internally by:

* Practicing Agile, TDD, and Continuous Delivery

* Having an option to work from home as you need to

* Offering Competitive pay

* Working Sane hours (yes, go home -- we value your time.)

* Being the first to see cutting-edge tech that's not yet on the market

* Building out tools for ourselves and others.

* Thinking through problems creatively and inclusively

* Writing clean, working code!

If you're a talented and passionate engineer, who shares our values, and wants to apply your expertise on new technical challenges in a new market, we want to talk to you.

Atomic Object - Developer - Detroit, Ann Arbor, Grand Rapids MI (atomicobject.com)

The Right Fit: We don't care so much about your specific technology background. We're much more interested to know that you learn quickly, are disciplined in your work, and have already demonstrated interest and aptitude by having become proficient in a variety of languages and tools. We look for people who are passionate about development, who program in their free time, who are continually uncovering new things, and who enjoy sharing them.

A Variety of Technologies: At Atomic, it's not uncommon for someone to move from developing a new web site in Ruby to creating an internal application in .NET to building a mobile application in Objective-C or Java. We're passionate about quality and owning our clients' mission, so we select the best tools for the job.

A Broader Mindset: Atomic is a consultancy. As such, you'll be empowered and expected to interact directly with clients every day. You'll need to become comfortable and effective at understanding and discussing business goals, budgets, and timelines with clients. Additionally, you'll help market our services in a variety of ways including presenting at conferences, contributing to our shared company blog, networking within our client's organizations and among your peers, and expending your creative energies in ways we will not attempt to predict.

Interested in working for us? Send us an email to get the conversation started. We'd love to talk with you. jobs@atomicobject.com

Optimizely -- San Francisco

We're especially looking to hire an experienced Dev Ops engineer, but we're always hiring and we'd love to talk to anyone who's at all technical to see if we can find a fit. Check us out! https://www.optimizely.com/jobs?gh_src=fuvi7p

And here's our blurb:

Optimizely was founded by two former Google product managers, Dan Siroker and Pete Koomen. Dan served as the Director of Analytics during the Obama 2008 presidential campaign. While there, his team relied on the use of A/B and multivariate testing to maximize e-mail sign-ups, volunteers, and donations to raise more than $100 million in additional revenue for the campaign.

But optimization was hard — you needed technical skills and know-how to run even the simplest of tests. After the campaign, Siroker teamed up with Koomen to create a world-class optimization platform that was easy to use in an effort to provide a platform for businesses to be able to conceive and run experiments that helped them make better data-driven decisions.

Since completing YCombinator in the winter of 2010, Optimizely has seen strong and growing demand.

Earlier quoted context omitted.

From the "Tales of interest!" files: A couple years ago, in our old office at the top of the Monadnock building, I'm working on code for a product we're doing while Vitaly is working on a pentest for a big Rails client, and, like, 5 other people in the office are working on 5 other things. I'm procrastinating while noodling through some stupid Riak thing and so I hear Vitaly say something about how some request he se…

"And because we were all together in the same room when Vitaly found it, we isolated, analyzed, and weaponized it in minutes, rather than in hours or days." It wasn't because you were all together in the same room, it's because you were communicating effectively and you're assuming there is no way to replicate that level of effective communication without being in the same room. With proper tools and training, everyt…

I'm sure there's some amount of money and time Matasano could spend to make extra-office communication so fluid and effective that the sort of serendipitous collaboration I just talked about would happen with any two people on the planet. But, like most companies, they haven't. Meanwhile: they value that collaboration. So, there you are.
