Hazel Analytics | Full-stack / Back-end Software Engineer | Seattle, WA | ONSITE NO-VISA | https://hazelanalytics.com

Hazel Analytics provides data and analytics services to food service/retail companies and related industries, working to improve food safety compliance. Roughly half of the 100 largest food retail chains use Hazel technology, and we proudly count Uber Eats, Instacart, Target, and Starbucks among our customers. In 2019, we won two food safety innovation awards, and we still have big ambitions to keep advancing the state of the art in food safety management. We're also honored to have been recognized by Built in Seattle — two years in a row — as one of Seattle's best small businesses to work for.

We're currently seeking experienced full-stack and back-end software engineers to help us realize our ambitions. Back-end engineers will work predominantly in our Google Cloud Platform environment with Python (Flask), Elasticsearch, PostgreSQL 12 (on Google Cloud SQL), and Docker; full-stack engineers will tend to work a bit less in infrastructure and will add JavaScript (React) to their areas of expertise. We keep processes and meetings to a minimum in order for engineers to stay in the zone. Our team culture is laid-back and friendly, balanced by a strong sense of personal ownership and motivation to deliver; we're a small company, so engineers collaborate closely with non-engineers. People who are eager to mentor junior engineers are strongly encouraged to apply, as are folks with a background in devops, data science, or UI/UX.

Compensation is $110K - $160K (DOE), plus equity and a generous benefits package (including parental leave). We're currently working from home due to the COVID-19 pandemic but planning on an eventual return to in-office work; at present, we're not considering fully-remote team members, but I'll continue to weigh it for the future. We aren't able to provide H1B sponsorship; relocation assistance within the United States is negotiable. These roles are not considered entry-level.

Full-stack candidates: https://jobs.lever.co/hazelanalytics/7c4ae7ec-ed3f-45cf-b2e9...

Back-end candidates: https://jobs.lever.co/hazelanalytics/64f146aa-a334-4491-915d...

(I'm the hiring manager for these roles; I've personally hired and _been_ hired through HN Who's Hiring threads.)

Overleaf (https://www.overleaf.com) | REMOTE | Full-time | Back End Developers

Overleaf builds modern collaborative authoring tools for scientists --- like Google Docs for Science. We have over six million registered users from around the world. Our primary product is an online, real-time collaborative editor for papers, theses, technical reports and other documents written in the LaTeX markup language.

We acquired ShareLaTeX in 2017 and have since merged the two platforms.

We plan to add two developers to our team, both with a back end focus. Ideally, we'd like to find one developer with web analytics and data pipeline experience and one who would be interested in a team lead role in the future.

Our stack currently includes Node.js, MongoDB, PostgreSQL, Redis, Angular.js (going away), React and a some Ruby on Rails.

Some reasons you'd enjoy working with us:

- Most of our code is open-source and we're big fans of Free Software.

- Working hours can be flexible to your needs. Our core hours are 2pm--5pm UK time. Applicants in the US, Canada and UK/EU are preferred.

- We're agile (with a lowercase a). We test thoroughly (unit and acceptance), we have a CI build process, a full staging environment to play with, and we automate as much as possible.

- Remote is a first class citizen; even before the pandemic, all founders and employees worked remotely. When we can do so again, we'll get everyone together in London a few times a year for valuable face to face time.

Please see https://apply.workable.com/j/77FA8361E4 for more information and how to apply.

Cortx | Machine Learning Engineer - Deep Learning | Baltimore, Maryland | Onsite, Full-time

Cortx is a profitable, stable, and growing artificial intelligence startup that is building an NLP product that automatically writes content about any subject with the same level of quality, factual accuracy, and usefulness as a human. This product already has over 2,000 paying subscribers and is quickly growing.

You would be at the intersection of research and production code - taking our research roadmap and helping make it a reality. You will be helping our AI team take nascent research concepts and turn them into state of the art natural language generation. You will be constantly ingesting research papers, building prototypes, and later turning those prototypes into production code.

Our work almost exclusively involves very heavy deep learning (transformers) and we primarily use PyTorch.

You will be working directly with our Founder/CEO (me!), who is leading the AI team, both as a manager and an individual contributor.

We sponsor all visas, including H1B and Green Card, and we pay market rates for SF/NYC despite being located in an area with a significantly cheaper cost of living.

If you have done work with transformers for text generation, information retrieval, or text style transfer (and especially if it has advanced SOTA), we would be very interested in talking with you.

Contact us by emailing alex@cortx.com with "HN" in the subject line.

NoRedInk | Full-Stack and Site Reliability Engineers | San Francisco, CA | REMOTE Pacific Time (PST) to Central European Time (CET)

We’re a growing ed-tech company on a mission to help all students become better writers! NoRedInk is used by 1 in 2 school districts in the US, and students have answered over 5 billion questions on our platform. If you're looking to join a team of friendly people who listen to and learn from each other, discuss past mistakes openly as we adapt to the challenges that come with progress, all while realizing our mission, then you'll be excited to learn more about us.

Our colleagues span six time zones, California to Berlin and points in between, with lively discourse flowing freely across Slack, Zoom, and the office when we're able to be there. Wherever we're working from, we've always deligted in our work to ship new features—beginning with our curriculum and product teams, designers, through to testing by our dedicated quality assurance folks—that put teachers and students first. [1]

Our engineering team [2] takes prides in producing innovative, maintainable software. We use the cutting-edge Elm programming language for all our front-end development. Our back-end is primarily Ruby on Rails, though we're actively moving toward Haskell services as we scale to keep up with our traffic. We use Amazon AWS for our infrastructure configured with Chef and OpsWorks, though we're migrating towards orchestration using Kubernetes. We write a lot of tests, and use Jenkins for continuous integration. We've also developed and maintain several useful open-source projects. [3] You can read about our experiences with these technologies on our team blog. [4]

We’re looking for engineers who want to work on a mission that makes a difference and who are the type of collaborators that value kindness and open-mindedness. If that's you, you can learn more about our interview process [5] and on-boarding experience [6], and you should definitely apply through our jobs page! [7]

Hi John,

Nothing to do with the two positions, but have you ever considered a markdown editor? My pipeline is markdown -> pandoc+filters -> latex, so nowadays I only use Overleaf when the papers (or the coauthors) really demands it.
