Los Angeles(Culver City), CA - Full-time, permanent - eSalon.com http://www.esalon.com Looking for a junior to senior developer. Someone who gets stuff done, all around developer. PHP, javascript, Mysql, apache, nginx, redis, potentially some hardware programming...

We're an ecommerce site that sells custom haircolor. Doesn't sound too techy I know but there's more to it. Short summary, someone comes to our site, fills out a profile/sends a picture. We send them custom haircolor. When I say custom, I mean really custom. We manufacture and ship everything ourselves and we've built the whole system to do it ourselves. Every bottle of haircolor has the client's name on it, instructions are personalized, it's all made one off for the client.

More details.. We're an ecommerce site that sells a completely custom product that we manufacturer ourselves. Things that you might be working on.. Front end consumer facing website. Back end CRM customer service site. We use zendesk and custom software. Looking to integrate twilio for phone calls and build a custom call center solution. Helping automate our production line some more. Mix of hardware and software. We have an arduino powering some stuff, potentially more. Data mining, we're a very data driven company, constantly A/B testing and trying to make our colorists/customer service more efficient.

It's a really small team and you'll get to work on a lot of different things and have a big say in things. If any of this sounds remotely interesting, shoot me an email. I think we're quite different from any other internet startup because we produce something tangible.

San Francisco, CA - Full-time, permanent - MuleSoft

Node.js Developer

Mulesoft is looking for node.js Developers to join our award winning Cloud Platforms team in San Francisco.

You will get to pioneer a greenfield JavaScript/Node.js project with a growing team creating brand new services and features for our CloudHub Platform - our Integration Platform as a Service (iPaaS) which recently won the SIIA Software CODiE Award for Best Integration Solution. You will have the opportunity to apply node.js to develop high-performance and highly-scalable event-driven components which will provide the backbone for the CloudHub platform, and a set of shared services across the Anypoint cloud platform. This is a greenfield project so there is tons of room for you to be creative, solve impossible problems, try new technologies and make your personal mark on things. In addition you have the opportunity, client-side, to use JavaScript and frameworks like Ember and Angular for developing Single Page Applications.

You’ll get to work with a great team of smart and talented engineers in San Francisco, as well as plenty of opportunity to travel to our engineering team in Buenos Aires, Argentina. We have a really nice office space with lots of company perks, and we run regular meetups and hackathons. Most importantly you’ll have a lot of fun doing this.

Some of the things that would make you a great fit for this exciting role: You are excited about node.js and could explain to a room full of engineers why it’s such a compelling and powerful technology. You are active in the open source community. You have a github account and would be happy to share with us some of the projects you have started or contributed to. MuleSoft is an open source company and most of our team are open source contributors. You are constantly trying out new languages and frameworks on your own time - Ruby, Scala, Clojure, Akka, Angular, Ember, etc. You are interested in APIs, big integration and big data challenges. A lot of what we are building involves scaling to massive volumes of web transactions and analytics/metrics which will require technologies like AWS, Hadoop, and real-time event processing. Strong JavaScript knowledge and development best practices including unit testing and continuous integration of JS applications. You should feel passionate about this and have pretty strong opinions on why it is so important. You probably have a Web/UI JavaScript background and are comfortable working up and down the full stack and contributing to our SPA if needed (in fact this is probably one of the reasons you are excited about node.js). You know when to choose appropriate technologies for the team to use; iterate quickly on ideas and push them out to customers in a continuous fashion; assist junior members of the team by performing code reviews and providing technical advice. Multiple openings at various levels (junior, senior, principal).

New York, NY - Full-time and/or intern - Pathgather (pathgather.com)

Pathgather is bringing the open online education revolution to the corporate world. We're disrupting a $2bn industry with a 50% dissatisfaction rate through a platform that allows employees to learn more by learning together. Our platform incorporates educational resources from across the web (think MOOCs and the like) with a company's own internal content to provide employees with a comprehensive learning catalogue. Add a social layer on top of that, and we're building the next gen of LMS (learning management systems).

We're bootstrapping and have already signed a Fortune 200 company with 30,000+ employees as our first customer. They signed on board before we even had the product finished, which shows the demand for this type of platform!

We're a team of 2 at the moment (the founders) and are offering excellent pay and equity for our first engineering, full-time hire (full stack engineer is a huge plus). Any hire will be core to influencing the direction of our product and business. Cultural fit is highest priority. We work in WeWork in NYC and are looking for someone who we'll enjoy hanging out with as much as working with. Skills in any of the following are a plus, but seeing as how we are education based, if you aren't fully versed in all of these, no worries. Come learn here!

* Rails

* AngularJS (we use it heavily!)

* PostgreSQL

* Phonegap/Mobile development

* Coffeescript/Sass/Haml

* Past experience in API development

To apply, email me your Github or links to past work at jamie@pathgather.com. This is a great opportunity to get in at the ground floor of a very promising (and already profitable) early-stage startup!

Its a lot of fun to work on, but also needs a lot of work. We have a lot of impressive features that our users need, everything from better visualizations of deployment, to responsive features that work well on mobile, so you'll be a really important part of the team. Experience with Angular would be particularly cool.
