Tesorio (YC S'15) (https://www.tesorio.com) | Burlingame, CA | ONSITE

* Senior Backend Engineer: build microservices to interconnect accounting software & work on our webapp's backend (Python/Django)

* Senior Frontend Engineer: work with React, ES6, Gulp, and Webpack to build a B2B financial UX that users love

* Senior Full-Stack Engineer: all of the above :)

* Apply to any of these roles here: https://jobs.lever.co/tesorio

Tesorio is a Y Combinator-backed startup that is interconnecting finance systems between companies to create a world where B2B invoices & payments are automated & simple.

Imagine a world where B2B invoices & payments are automated and require no human interaction. That's where the world is headed and we want to be the ones to make it happen. It does not make sense that companies have whole departments dedicated to this workflow with the technology available today.

You'll help us build algorithms to determine a company's utility for cash, integrations between accounting systems so they talk directly to one another, help us build the next generation of B2B payments that is as simple as PayPal/Venmo, and more. We raised a seed round led by top investors including First Round Capital (Uber + Warby Parker), Floodgate Capital (Twitter + Lyft), Fuel Capital (Layer + CoreOS), Red Swan (Coinbase + Buffer), Slow Ventures (early Facebook team), Hillsven Capital (founders of Ariba), and Paul Buchheit (creator of Gmail, YC Partner).

Site Reliability Engineering - Uber (SF, NYC, Europe) I work on the SRE team at Uber. There are so many roles at a big company, but if you want to work on the most challenging problems and the systems that can't fail SRE is it. SRE at Uber means helping to design, implement and run our most critical infrastructure. So we look for folks who are excited about both writing software and running systems (ideally both). A…

You having a place in Europe means a US-Visa is not required?

Fin Exploration Company | Software Engineer | Full Time | SF

We're building Fin, a digital personal assistant. We've ambitiously called it "the OS from the movie Her", powered by a mix of human and machine intelligence. You can read a bit about the mission here https://www.fin.com/letters/introducing-fin

We're a small but well-funded company, and we have a team of great founders and engineers from places like Venmo, Facebook, and Twitter. It's a fun place to work, whether you like building features that have a big impact for users or solving challenging technical problems (NP-hard scheduling problems, handling increasingly complex tasks with AI instead of people, etc).

There's always a lot of flexibility to work on what most excites you (within reason, of course) but our engineer listing is for full-stack Product Engineer (we're also hiring Data Scientists).

Apply here: https://www.fin.com/jobs/product-engineer or feel free to email me directly if you'd like to chat at cosson[AT]finxpc.com

I'll post to this thread because this is very relevant for the hiring companies. Hunter and Schmit did a meta-study of 85 years of research on hiring criteria.

"Smart and gets things done".

And "not an asshole".
