Ask HN: Who is hiring? (February 2016)

Persyst is the worldwide leader in EEG software. Our software is used daily by thousands of neurologists at hundreds of hospitals around the world. We have pioneered the use of digital signal processing and neural networks in order to remove artifacts and interpret EEG data. Now we are looking for team members to help develop the next generation of tools with the ultimate goal of replacing the routine human interpretation of EEG data. We are a small company (15 employees) that has been around since 1987 with stable and growing revenue.

As a software engineer, you will be an essential member of our team responsible for designing and developing the next generation of market leading EEG visualization software. This will include new products, new features, and improvements to existing products. Our software is written primarily in C++ and C#, but experience in those languages is not required.

Please contact us at jobs@persyst.com. We offer a very competitive compensation and a comprehensive benefit package that includes medical, dental, vision, 401(k) Plans, paid time off, and fosters both personal and professional growth.

ITV are building a new platform to host all of our applications - internal and external. Whether it’s the system that sells the adverts in Corrie, pays Ant & Dec, schedules Emmerdale for broadcast or gets TOWIE on to the ITV Hub, it’ll live here and you can help build it.

As a Platform Engineer you’ll be embedded in a team responsible for a product end-to-end. Working closely with the developers, testers, product owners and scrum masters you’ll make sure the environments are ticking over nicely, polish the build pipeline and make sure everything’s looking good in production.

You’ll be jointly responsible for the quality of everything the team produces - if you build it, you run it. One day you’ll be helping deploy a new microservice, the next watching it handle millions of requests during the X Factor final. The coffee’s not bad, either.

Our ethos is simple: automate, automate, automate. We believe in using the right tool for the job - right now we’re using things like AWS, puppet, docker, jenkins, sensu, redis, terraform, centos, rabbitmq, nginx, varnish, haproxy, trello, github and slack - but we’re always keeping an eye on the future and experimenting with new tech. We want our team to be two things: ‘smart’ and ‘kind’. If that’s you and this sounds like fun then I’d like to hear from you - email in my profile.
