Company: http://www.unicity.com/usa/company/ - Unicity International located in Orem, UT.

Position: Sr Software Engineer. REMOTE and VISA are cool.

I'm Software Architect here and I'm looking for a person to complement my team of 2 other engineers. We build and use APIs to integrate modern web/mobile/native apps with legacy back-end systems (Cobol from 90's; C# from 00's). Those APIs are then consumed by external customers, contractors and internal separate web-team. Besides APIs we build and manage ESB to connect those legacy systems with each other.

My team does Continuous Delivery to respond to ever-changing priorities. Test-Driven Development gives us sanity and sleep at night.

Being big believers in SOA and EIP, most of our intra-team collaboration is about negotiating API contracts. Implementation of each service/component is mostly left to an individual developer.

Ideal candidate should feel comfortable with Microsoft stack (i.e. Windows servers, IIS, SqlServer, and C#) and be proficient with OSS products (e.g. Linux, PHP, Java, PostgreSQL, and MySQL).

If you are interested, please shoot me an email to dzmitry.pletnikau@unicity.com

The partners of octavius are founders who have bootstrapped to sustainability or sold businesses in the marketing tech space. We are currently based in a beautifully restored brick warehouse located in El Segundo’s just south of LAX.

#### Tech Lead Responsibilities:

The tech lead should think of development as a craft and see themselves as master craftsmen. They are primarily responsible for the development and maintenance of the products that we are incubating. Ideal candidates are full of ideas and are constantly looking for ways to improve themselves and the world around them. Candidates should also be able to lead a team of developers.

#### General Requirements:

* The belief that the only limitation on what is possible is ones imagination

* Open mind

Baltimore, MD; Reston, VA; FULL TIME

Videology Group - http://www.videologygroup.com/

Internet advertising startup looking primarily for server-side Java developers (if your Java is rusty but you're good, drop us a note anyway). I was working for a start-up called LucidMedia Networks (hence the "lmn" in the e-mail address below), which got acquired by Videology. Our stack is Java/Spring/*nix (Linux on the server but Mac in dev) with MySQL and some NoSQL stores on AWS. The Baltimore office also has a team on a large .NET stack as well, but Java teams are spread across both offices. We have some big projects in the works involving big data and volume as we scale globally and across mediums (video, mobile, etc.). Currently, our Reston platform alone handles 4 billion requests a day.

Contact me directly at sahil_lmn@yahoo.com.
