Suitable Technologies is a growing startup building remote presence technology (aka telepresence robots). We’re shipping product, and we have funding, strong compensation, and a fun work environment, including free lunch and snacks. We provide top-of-the-line development hardware, adjustable desks, and will get your workspace just right. We’re looking to fill a few technical roles:
Expert C++ generalist -- Someone who knows how to design, build, and optimize highly performant and memory-efficient applications in C++, and is up on the latest in C++11. Experience with audio, video, Qt, or networking is a plus.
Expert Python/Django web engineer -- A test-first, scalability-minded backend web engineer to help us take our service global. Our stack includes Django, MySQL, Redis, Memcached, Fabric, etc. Front-end skills are a plus.
Server operations admin and engineer -- A network administrator to support our product and software development teams, implement and maintain our production web-based environment, and maintain our internal corporate network. Linux, Python, Nagios, Munin, Nginx, etc.
Videoconferencing engineer -- A software engineer with strong domain expertise in audio and video codecs and standards.
We’re a startup that just launched our flagship product, called Beam, a true remote presence device that lets you travel instantly to remote locations, with a depth of interaction that makes you (and everyone else) feel as if you're really there. You can learn more and see our demo video on our site.
We’re already shipping to customers, and interest is strong. We have funding, competitive compensation, and a fun work environment, complete with our own chef and break-time games like table tennis. We provide top-of-the-line development hardware, adjustable desks, and will get your workspace just right.
Overall, we’re looking for great engineers, designers, testers, and product marketers to help in areas such as C++ development, audio and video software and codecs, web frontend and backend, UI/UX design, optimization, and networking. It’s also an opportunity for someone with experience in web or mobile to work on something unique and challenging.
We’re also looking for people to help with sales, BD, and product management as we expand our offerings.

This dynamic is changing. For several of these:
"guessing body language and tonality from written communication", "dealing with conference calls and web-based meetings", "building relationships without benefit of breaks and meals", "understanding the human terrain without benefit of gossip and the water cooler", "being noticed and recognized for who you really are by new people"
And especially:
"being included when you're "out of sight, out of mind""
A remote presence device can make a tremendous difference. We know this because we use them ourselves, with our own distributed team. We have people on three continents, in the same office, every day.
One challenge we have (full disclosure, my company makes such a device) is how to explain the benefits, and how it changes life and work, without a live demo. Our research shows that it takes about 30 minutes of use before people start to see the differences. I'd be curious to know what the folks at Double Robotics, Anybots, VGo, and some of the other new companies have found as well.
We just launched our Beam remote presence system last week and are looking for great full-time engineers and designers to help make it a success! We're primarily looking for software engineers with experience in C++, Python, or embedded web development (e.g. WebKit).
