Hey, a friendly reminder. I'm parsing the thread, all job offers added here are also available on the map on https://whoishiring.io Please read the below if you are planning to post here and would like to have your offer looking good on the map. I've been doing this since August last year, both parsing the thread and adding this comment here. But this time I would like to only slightly improve one thing: the format.…

Very cool! I should've used a better call to action as @reddit.com doesn't really make sense when you can't see my username.

Clever (YC S12) - San Francisco - onsite

Right now the market for educational software is a mess. It’s incredibly difficult for developers to get their products into schools, and it’s even harder for them to scale. School districts spend tons of money on learning applications, but they have no way of knowing if students are even using the apps they’re purchasing. Teachers know there’s great software out there, but relatively simple challenges like getting 30 students logged in at once make using it impossible.

At Clever, we’re working to change all that. We provide schools with a free API and single sign-on solution that makes using educational apps a breeze. We’ve grown fast: after four years, half of all schools in the US (65,000 schools) are using our platform. Our goals are much bigger than that, though. We want to be two things:

-a single place where schools can easily integrate, manage and analyze all the software they’re using, and

-a single identity that students can use to see everything they’ve learned across multiple apps.

We’re a team of 120 (40 engineers) based in downtown SF, and we’re looking for engineers who enjoy working in (or would enjoy learning) Go, Node and React. More generally, we want people who are sharp, adaptable, and passionate about improving the way education works for everyone. We're especially looking for a security-focused software engineer: a creative thinker who’d be excited to help keep students’ data safe.

Earlier quoted context omitted.

Xando, I propose adding a SALARY keyword if the post includes salary, just in case the amount is in Euro or whatever.

I'm not handling a salary right now. But it looks like I should. I will try to do something about it. Just a note. To have the search enabled on a salary, values have to be normalised to something, dollars sound good to me. As for the keyword. This is something probably HN crew could decide on. In my opinion isn't needed as long salary is in first row with $xxx or $xxx-$xxx format. But since many people seems to be i…

perhaps call it 'compensation'? It could be in a variety of forms, either $/yr, $/hr, per-project, etc.

Hey all, a friendly reminder. A who is Hiring Android app is available where you can search, filter, all those positions. App Link: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.symisc.who... P.S: Ads were all disabled

Great idea, terrible execution imho. Native UI is still a bit thing. Also, needs filter for android developers.
