San Francisco, CA - Zenbox. Software Engineer. [LOCAL | RELOCATE OK]
We're a YC company wrangling SaaS to work together (as they should), starting by bringing the biggest apps our customers use right into Gmail. We've been growing our team over the past few months, and looking to add even more awesome people.
We work with dozens of API's to show our users profiles of their customers without having to jump out of the email flow - imagine having http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WtzqRSlgqkw available when helping customers.
Thousands of people use it every day for hours on end, and are happy to pay for it to make sure they can continue using it. But there's still so much polish and improvement possible.
We also spend time improving our tooling, and tools for other developers. As one example we've recently vastly improved the source-map capabilities of the ClojureScript compiler. We do it because we want to give back to the communities that have enabled us, because it helps us, and because it's interesting.
Looking for an engineer who loves the craft, who cares about building product, and is excited about helping customers. We also explore some pretty awesome ways to escape from getting crushed under the heel of complexity, and we're all excited to start toying around with ideas like http://clojure.com/blog/2013/06/28/clojure-core-async-channe... for the frontend.
This is both UI and backend work.
Languages: Clojure, Clojurescript, Ruby, Javascript.

Three years ago there was no "real" way to watch live gaming video online. Now we're the defacto and the likes of xbox and valve are realizing that and working very closely with us. This type of growth needs support!
Devops Engineers - We're scaling at an insane rate! 3mm MAU increase over the last couple of months, up from 2mm MAU a few months ago, which was up from 1mm MAU a few months prior to that! As such nearly every aspect of our stack is being revved, automated and improved. We're looking for people that never do things three times, it is always scripted and solid by then. Come help us build intelligent request routing into our infrastructure, help us get our server build and deploy process down to a work of beauty. Everything is up for grabs here for the right candidates.
Data Architects - Do you dream about large volumes of data? We have it! We're looking for engineers with tried and tested experience of modern storage mechanisms to help us scale out all data related things. Our vision is to have you build the platform for our stats guy (an absolute baller!) to go to town on. We want to build platforms that help us both with real time queries (recommendations for channels / vods, etc, to watch) and longer bulk queries (cohort analysis).
Interested in either? Want to know more? Email me, Mike Ossareh, Director of Engineering: [email protected]

Atlanta, GA - MailChimp
I am hiring for two roles on the Infrastructure side:
Systems/Coding: http://mailchimp.theresumator.com/apply/6Il9br/Infrastructur...
NOC/Networking: http://mailchimp.theresumator.com/apply/8ZRfKP/NOC-Engineer....
MailChimp is a unique place. We have ~3.5mm users, send ~6bn emails/month, and sit at ~80k queries/second hitting our dozens of database shards during a typical day. We are growing rapidly, adding 7000+ new users/day with that rate increasing every week. On the infrastructure side we do some neat stuff to support that scale and growth rate, working closely with developers to build and support our applications.
The engineering teams are still small, our benefits are unmatched, and internally we function much like a startup aside from established stability and abundant resources. There are no sales people, no investors, no board, no phones, no useless meetings, and engineering teams are trusted to make good decisions with resources with minimal oversight.
If interested, use the links above to apply. Your information will come directly to me.

Mutually Human - Grand Rapids, Michigan

---------------------------------------
We are a small team passionate about making people's lives better through software.
A little bit about us:
[email protected]
http://www.mutuallyhuman.com/
---------------------------------------
We are a small team passionate about making people's lives better through software.
A little bit about us:
- We write custom software of all shapes and sizes for clients all over the US
- Though everyone here is fluent in Ruby, we don't artificially limit ourselves.
In the past few months, I've worked with Objective-C, Backbone.js (inside
PhoneGap), Angular.js, Ruby (of course) and a little bit of Java and C#.
- We practice a sustainable pace. We recognize that we each have lives,
activities, and families outside of work. Late nights and > 40 hour weeks are
rare by design.
- We're agile, but not dogmatic about it. Our process evolves to suit our needs.
- We offer competitive salaries, health/vision/dental insurance, quarterly profit
sharing, retirement + match, weekly catered lunches, and a top-floor office
with snacks, guitars, and your choice of standing or sitting desks.
- 2.5 hours from Chicago and Detroit, less than an hour to the beach.
- Lots of great beer. Founders Brewery (a mile from our office) has 3 beers in
the Beer Advocate top 15. HopCat is a “World Class” bar on BA.
Just look here: http://beeradvocate.com/beerfly/city/43
- If you’re renting anything larger than a breadbox in the Bay Area or NYC,
you can afford a house here. I bought a nice house with a mortgage payment
30% lower than the rent of my 1 bedroom apartment in Mountain View.
- A growing technology and startup community.
- You love writing software, and you have a few years of experience doing it.
- You learn new stuff quickly. You’ve used a lot of technologies, but you’re not
afraid to use more. It would be nice if you use and love Ruby, but not required.
- You believe software is written for humans, not computers.
- You want to come into work every day and enjoy the people you work with.

1. Lowest livings costs with highest standard of living. Stay in gorgeous, perfectly renovated apartments in pre-WWII residential buildings with high ceilings, right in the middle of the center and pay a fraction of costs of any other capital (even cheaper than any Eastern European capital). No need for a car—Berlin has one of the densest subway nets and wide streets make biking fun + we have Car2Go and Drive-Now (these are world's best smartphone-supported car sharing systems with brand new cars at every corner, cheaper than owning a car or riding a cab). In addition, Germany has an amazing social health care system including health, unemployment and pension.
2. A vibrant and fast growing ecosystem of smart people. A vast number of new software talents, founders, software companies and VCs are moving to Berlin, every day (Twitter, Google, Soundcloud, Earlybird, Mozilla and many more).
3. People here are open-minded, outgoing, mix well and international—no need to learn German, everyone speaks English. Making new friends is a matter of days. Visit tons of networking and startup events, every week.
4. Easy work permissions—Europeans do not need any and can work from day one.
5. Berlin's night life is unmatched, huge and changing every day (plus ridiculously cheap). Berlin has got some of the most dazzling, naughty, and original clubs on the face of the Earth.
Berlin is calling and getting the new tech hub of Europe. If you are passionate about building great software, we’d love to talk with you. If you don't live in Berlin yet, we could help to fix that.

Our mission: To interpret the Earth's most threatening data.
-- Senior Python Developer --
About us:
We tell our customers when bad weather is going to disrupt, delay, or damage their business. Our product provides high-level intelligence and low-level analysis on weather risk for supply chain managers, business continuity professionals, commodity traders, and oil/gas operators. Here's President Obama looking at our map: http://news.yahoo.com/photos/u-president-barack-obama-looks-...
We're looking for a couple of developers to join our team. Tools we work with include Python, Celery, Redis, MySQL, Postgres, Backbone, nginx, AWS
About you:
* Able to rapidly gain (and enjoy gaining) new expertise in a previously-foreign, non-technical domain (e.g. weather, earthquakes, wildfires, solar flares)
* Derive joy from seeing huge leaps forward in the customer experience
* Mastery in a non-technical discipline (i.e. you are not only a great developer, but also a master at jazz music, mountain climbing, chess, skiing ... something that has taught you how to think beyond a keyboard).
* Ability to collaboratively apply the design principles of Stormpulse to new projects
* Not satisfied with a compromise -- always pursue the possibility that two seemingly contradictory goals can be simultaneously achieved through great feats of design / engineering
* Derives pleasure from the final aesthetic
Requirements:
- B.S. in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, Mathematics, or college degree with related technical experience required. ("Hackers with Humanities degrees are awesome" says Matt) - Strong experience with one or more of Python, Ruby or similar object oriented dynamic language required. Additional experience with Javascript, HAXE, HTML, or CSS is highly desirable. - Experience with GIS (PostGIS, ESRI, Mapbox) is preferred - Linux experience with knowledge of Linux internals and Distributed Systems preferred. - Self-motivated and driven to continuously improve personal and professional skills combined with openness to constructive feedback. - Strong communication and documentation skills.

San Francisco; REMOTE possible.
We help publishers of all sizes make more money by showing readers great recommendations of more things to read (both related and not). We've got cool clients, the most innovative product in the space and we're poised for big growth in the next few months.
Things we don't do: crappy outbound traffic arbitrage links.
We build products that are good for publishers, writers and readers. That's in our DNA.
We're lean and nimble; have an awesome roadmap full of fun tech challenges; and looking to find the right person to lead our tech team. The stack? Currently, PHP, Nginx, Apache, Memecache, MySQL, jQuery, a dash of PostGRES. Future? Likely some Python, maybe Go, maybe Redis, maybe some NodeJS. Whatever makes sense.
There will be some machine learning stuff, some big data, some UX challenges, etc. The ideal person is someone who is passionate about making online publishing better; who has track record of leading teams to ship quickly without burnout; and who wants to learn more - but doesn't make stack decisions based on the cool new tool they want to learn.
http://contextly.com/jobs/
What we offer: a fun challenge working on a product used by millions daily, great co-workers, significant equity.
There's no timeframe on the hiring, so if it's something that sounds good for 3 months from now, drop us a line.
Put CTO in the subject line and tell us a bit about yourself. [email protected].
