Ask HN: Who is hiring? (August 2014)

HubSpot is a great place to work. In fact, it was ranked the #2 place to work in Massachusetts and we're the fastest growing non-public software company in the US (and 33rd fastest growing non-public company). We focus on helping businesses with their online marketing - specifically helping them to avoid interrupting and annoying their customers with bad marketing.

In Engineering, we're organized into small teams where you get to have a big impact on the product. We have a great environment to move quickly in and deploy hundreds of times a day. We use GitHub Enterprise for SCM, Jenkins to build, an internal deployer system for zero-downtime deploys, and we even have a Heroku-style system coming (for those that would ask "why not just use Docker?", there's still the provisioning and routing issue).

On the backend, we use Java and Python (though more Java these days). It's really modern Java. We use Dropwizard which is really wonderful if you haven't checked it out (annotate paths similarly to how you'd use Flash in Python and just have the method return an object and Jackson will serialize it into JSON and return it - Java can be really nice). For data, HBase, Hadoop, MySQL, ZoopKeeper, Redis, and Memcached all have their place. Again, we deploy hundreds of times a day so don't expect your code to languish in the repository. We like pushing small changes fast.

On the front end, we use Backbone.js, CoffeeScript, and jQuery. We also have our iPhone and Android applications.

Engineers get a lot of responsibility from the start and you'll usually push changes your first day. You'll also get a Retina MacBook Pro and Thunderbolt display.

Work schedules are flexible. Most engineers keep a 10-6 schedule. You get to make a meaningful difference in a product with loads of paying customers and a ton of traffic. Best of all, you get to work with loads of smart and fun people. That's the best thing about HubSpot: the people are great people that you can rely on, learn from, and have a great time getting things done with.

    CloudFlare is hiring Go, Lua, PHP JavaScript developers
    London and San Francisco
    ---

But, actually, ignore the specific positions. If you like working in Go, or Lua, or PHP, or JavaScript and want to come work for a company that's growing rapidly and has a ton of code to write in all those languages just apply. We've hired lots of people who aren't a specific fit for a job that's listed on that board.

Senior Front End Developer - Washington, DC(possibly remote)

At Mobility Labs, we work on projects that have a social impact. We work with non-profits, foundations, and small businesses. While we work with non-profits and foundations, we’re a for-profit company and offer competitive salaries and benefits. Our main industry is K-12 education, but we also have projects in public accountability. One reason our clients prefer working with us is because we build pilot projects to demonstrate success prior to building out larger applications. For us, this means lots of opportunities for building projects from scratch, allowing us to work with the latest and greatest development tools and frameworks.

You will be working with our team of developers, designers, and subject matter experts to build software that solves real problems. We build in an agile manner with direct user feedback as part of our design/development cycle. You will have the opportunity to mentor others on the team while working with our senior developers. Our current stack leans towards Angular on the client side and Rails on our API server. Our developers are a curious sort though, so we will continue to adjust our stack as new technologies emerge.

As our front end expert you should be able to create directives, resources, services, controllers, and all the other fun parts of Angular with ease. We use package managers and build systems. We like speeding things up by using Bootstrap or Foundation, so familiarity would be great. Getting the most out of SASS and LESS will also help. Do you like automated testing? Us too! We use Jasmine, Karma, and CircleCi. We also can’t get enough of Github and have a strong code review culture.

The majority of the team is in Washington, DC but we also have members in NYC, Richmond, VA and Medellin, Colombia.

Do you get excited by things like graph databases and machine learning? Can you think up mind-blowing solutions to complex, hairy problems? We want someone who can move fast, think creatively, and deliver quality/tested code. Is this you? Take a small risk and join us in building a growth business.

Who are we? Before any meeting, Charlie automatically researches people before you see them. Researching people is a complex problem: we sift through, analyze, and manipulate data into powerful insights (i.e. what are they passionate about, what do you have in common?). CNBC called us “One of the world’s most promising new companies” and SXSW selected us as an Accelerator Finalist. We’re a funded startup, backed by some very awesome VC’s and prominent angel investors.

We’ve built Charlie to research people at massive scale, using the latest Ruby on Rails stack with MongoDB, Redis, Sidekiq, and hosted in an elastic cloud farm. We write code with agility and have a tight process where anyone on the team can deploy to production at any time, without approval. We thoroughly test our code, though we’re not strict TDD. We're a small dev that loves to code, and constantly pushes, and learns from each other.

This is your opportunity to join an early-stage company that’s making moves. Sound interesting? Let us know what makes you the perfect candidate.

Why we’re special: * Flexible working situation: hours, location * Competitive salary + equity * Funded startup backed by some amazing people including DreamIt Ventures * Everyone deploys to production (fully automated, painless) * We go out and do fun things (concerts, Bulls & Cubs games, and occasionally ski in Colorado)

Requirements: * Back-end developer, front-end is a plus * Ruby on Rails preferred, but you can learn. * DB experience (SQL or NoSQL?) * Not afraid of the front-end (HTML5, jQuery, Coffeescript, bootstrap, Sass, Slim) * Test your code (Rspec, capybara, cucumber, etc) * Hobbyist: Working on a side project to learn new technology? * Creative problem solver * Git / Github * Smart & gets things done.
