TokBox | San Francisco, CA / London, UK | Onsite | Engineering, Business Analytics, Business Development, Product

https://tokbox.com/

TokBox makes it easy for developers to embed real-time video, voice, and messaging into their native and web applications. We build the premier WebRTC platform. Want to build the functionality of Google Hangouts, Skype, or Facebook Live? Use us! We have great clients from individual developers to massive players in tech, entertainment, education, and many other industries (customers include Mozilla, the Minerva Project, Chegg, esurance, Major League Baseball, Double Robotics, Fox Sports, and many YC companies). We were acquired by Telefonica 4 years ago. It hasn't changed the culture much, and has helped us reach more customers around the world.

The product is industry leading, the space is growing rapidly and getting hot, and the people are great. It's an awesome group of 100 or so- nice, smart, skilled. We are laid back and have a sense of humor. Minimal politics. Good salary and benefits in a relaxed, enjoyable environment. Actual work-life balance.

We're looking for 2 product managers - one focusing on industry verticals (e.g. the unique needs of education, or financial services, or media companies) and a developer experience PM (ideal for former engineers or evangelists). In engineering, we’re looking for a DevOps engineer to keep things up and running, a media focused backend engineers to expand and maintain our robust, low-latency media server and other systems, a test engineer to automate testing (especially for mobile). Lastly, we're looking for 2 key engineering roles with a direct customer-facing aspect: a solutions architect who will build things for key partners and customers, and a customer success engineer to help champion user needs, answer support requests, and help users solve problems. In business analytics, we're looking for someone to join a small but strong team to help keep us informed and making smart choices. Lastly, in BD, we’re looking for someone with experience in the tech and startup world in London.

Pixar Animation Studios | Emeryville, California | Full time | Onsite | https://goo.gl/JtVvDM Yippee! My team (Post Pipeline Engineering) is a bunch of silly/smart people who get things done. Technologies and skills we each use (honestly, all these things almost every day) in no particular order: Python / Django / Flask / Tornado | Image and video processing / Transcoding pipelines / FFmpeg / jpeg2000 OpenShift / Doc…

Seeing the skills posted being similar to mine is funny. Never thought pixar would be an option. :)

Iterable (https://iterable.com) - San Francisco, CA - ONSITE

Come join Iterable. We're 29 people bringing the growth hacking tools that consumer internet companies like Google/Twitter/Facebook build internally to other large-scale companies. We aim to build the best user growth engine on the planet. It's crazy how messaging and email usage are changing, but the technology and capabilities haven't caught up to the 21st century.

Our team of hackers and thinkers is from quant finance/Twitter/Google/Yahoo/Zynga/Khan Academy/Palantir/CMU/MIT, (we built large parts of Twitter's growth systems). One of our top level goals is to build a uniquely fun and growth oriented company culture. Knowledge sharing in any capacity is highly valued here -- are you interested in prediction markets or PGP encryption? Do you enjoy teaching posture techniques or purely functional data structures to others? We pair program, design together, and generally create a learn-and-teach environment here. This is an opportunity to join a super-fast growing startup, in a huge market and with a great team, while it's still early.

If you're interested in coming on board, you can help with some challenges we face:

  - Scale our messaging API
  - Design and write performant, beautiful, asynchronous interfaces 
  - Write software to build machine learned user models 
  - Make data visualizations for our email and user data 
  - Design an immutable deployment infrastructure for our platform
Some aspects of our culture that make us different:

  - We are all very focused on self improvement 
  - Our company has egalitarian and transparent values (work when you want, on what you want) 
  - We are chill & empathetic people 
  - The company is completely transparent
Technologies you'll work with:

  - Scala
  - Elasticsearch
  - Postgres
  - Redis
  - ES6
  - AngularJS
  - Play Framework
  - RabbitMQ
You'll get to work with us at our new office at 3rd & Harrison in San Francisco. If this sounds like an interesting and fun opportunity for you, please email me at aXRzYXVuaXhzeXN0ZW0raG5AaXRlcmFibGUuY29t or take a look at our open positions here: https://iterable.com/company/careers

QA Engineer - 17hats | Sofia, Bulgaria Let's say you're a freelance photographer/yoga teacher/designer/etc. How do you keep your business running in an organized way? That's what we do. Responsibilities: * Automated Testing: Write code to automate our test suite. - Capybara would be nice (we're a Ruby shop). Selenium/Cucumber is also fine. * Manual Testing: Find bugs, sometimes help kill them with fire, and then drin…

> - We'll pay you more than what you're making now. Sometimes a lot more.

Does this apply only to Bulgarian candidates? Somehow it's hard to imagine you're willing to pay more than a western salary (40-50k euro per year) for a QA Engineer in Sofia.
