Ask HN: Who is hiring? (January 2017)

David | San Francisco, CA | https://www.senddavid.com | Full­time | Onsite

David is a San Francisco-­based software startup that combines technology and legal research to help customers resolve disputes with their cable, internet, or wireless service provider. The $200+ billion legal industry is still stuck in the 20th century: paper-based, error-prone and slow. With rates averaging $300 / hour, only 15% of Americans with serious legal problems even seek the help of a lawyer. For everyday issues like bogus cable bills, fewer than 1 in 1,000,000 of us seek justice, even though monopolists like Comcast rank in the 0th percentile for customer satisfaction. Class actions used to provide the necessary scale to combat certain widespread frauds, but over the past 5 years, the Supreme Court has allowed businesses to eliminate them.

The technical challenges are hard, ranging from automating the monitoring of corporate misconduct to crafting delightful user flows to building the leading database of outcomes in consumer disputes. In parallel with the software development, a team of Yale Law School alums conducts the deep research so that our users finally feel empowered, rather than intimidated, by the law.

We currently have a MVP (https://www.senddavid.com) and are looking for a Senior Engineer as a very early member of the team.

Position: Senior Engineer | Salary: $80­-$125k | Equity: 1.0%-­4.0% | https://angel.co/david-174/jobs/72943-engineer

Booking.com - Amsterdam(Netherlands), Shanghai (China), Seattle, WA (USA), ONSITE Full-time, relocation to Amsterdam, (H1B or its dutch equivalent anyway) is taken care of by the company.

General Interview Process -> Hackerrank test, call with the recruiter, phone interview, onsite interviews

I work at Booking.com, which is a world leader in travel accommodations, as a backend developer. I have only positive things to say about working here. The people are intelligent and helpful, interesting problems to solve and the work hours are unbelievably sane. The company is strongly data driven and very dynamic, which was one of its biggest charms for me. Amsterdam is not a bad place to be either :) The Dutch government also gives a tax break through the 30% ruling to non-dutch people.The work environment is very international and everybody speaks fluent English. The relocation process is also very finely tuned through years of experience of doing this.

If you have any other questions about the company or the hiring process or you would like me to refer you, please feel free to send me an email at siddharthsarda01 at gmail.com (Email also in my profile at Hacker news).

eShares | Palo Alto, San Francisco, Seattle | Engineering & technical roles | Full time | Onsite

Founded by YC + Techstars alum, 3x revenue growth in 2016, near cashflow neutral in 2016. We're building a sustainable + scalable, customer-funded business that won't go bust in 2 years.

We're a team of 8 people and 4 engineers (half remote, half in SF). On-site in SF (4th & Brannan) preferred for this role, but will consider remote.

We're looking for senior engineers with 5-10+ years of real-world experience + expert level Javascript experience.

Sane 40-hour work week, competitive salary + equity, 401k + matching, 100% company-paid health insurance, life insurance, generous + flexible PTO, paternity / maternity leave, charity donation matching, plus the standard startup stuff like bean bags + free food ;)

  —  Solid understanding of MVC patterns.

  —  Excited by (and experience with) learning and managing a large + complex code base. 

  —  Understanding that *efficiently* delivering the best experience to customers + meeting company objectives sometimes requires working with legacy code.

  —  Understanding of unit / integration testing, TDD, and security best practices.

  —  Understanding that the "latest and greatest" Javascript frameworks aren't always better than vanilla Javascript.

  —  Learn quickly, act autonomously, think analytically.

  —  Bonus points for UI / UX / design experience or management experience.

Apply by emailing emailing CEO: brandon@localizejs.com or jobs@localizejs.com.
