This should help folks trying to get into your company/industry on what they need to know and conversely help you in finding a better pool of candidates.
Also backend and data engineering roles (C++/Java/Go/Kafka/etc) are in high demand here.
SoundHound is hiring in SF/Santa Clara/Toronto.
Our stack is node.js/React/Postgres so knowing any/all of those is a bonus, but we don't specifically target those skills – we instead look for a diverse, intelligent set of engineers who have a strong technical background or a newer technical background but heavy experience in a non-programming field (mathematics, economics, architecture, teaching, customer support, etc; they all have their benefits). Interest in being "full stack", participating heavily in the product management process (strong opinions loosely held!), and a belief in the critical importance of design & UX (unfortunately still heavily undervalued in the Enterprise space...) are important.
Hiring in San Francisco & Washington, DC by the way.

I am not currently hiring, but I'll gladly keep any CVs I receive and prioritize follow-ups with anyone who reaches out to me directly. Austin/DC for curious souls.

Trust me, us security folk will thank you. Heck I'd suggest it to non-hackery devs too. It's a good way to find out how us security types see the world.
+ for new web platform things like Service Workers, advanced SVG.
Could care less about whatever franework is hot this week.
