Ask HN: Who is hiring? (September 2014)

Weft - http://weft.io - Cambridge/Boston, MA (office is in central sq.)
We’re working in the largest, least sexy, most invisible industry in the world — 90% of everything has been on a ship at one point in time.
The problem -> To try to decrease costs, carries have been increasing the size of container ships. The only problem there is that as container ships get larger, the variability in the global supply chain goes up (e.g. a large ship being late causes a headache to more people than a small one).
How we fix it -> We track every ship on the water and run a bunch of analysis on our data sets so that we can help our customers smooth out the rough edges. (One company we're working with spends 6.5 mil every month on “late fees” because of these rough edges).
Mobile -> iOS, android in the near term
Algorithms -> a dizzying mixture of oldschool and newschool techniques ;-)
Looking for help on frontend and data science sides! (also looking for experimentalists for fun hedge fund stuff)
If this sounds interesting, please shoot me an email at [email protected]!

Mozilla Research - Video Codec Engineer - Remote or one of the global offices
The Internet needs a royalty free video codec appropriate for universal deployment with no gatekeepers. Creating a better video codec is a difficult task, and creating one with unencumbered technology is even harder. We've achieved that goal for audio with Opus, but video is still dominated by royalty bearing codecs like H.264.
We're looking for a Senior Research Engineer to join us building Daala, a next-next generation video codec being developed by Mozilla Research in conjunction with the Xiph.Org Foundation. Daala uses lapped transforms, overlapped-block motion compensation, frequency-domain prediction, gain-shape (perceptual) vector quantization, , and non-binary arithmetic coding to achieve superior performance.
If you like low level code, numeric programming, signal processing, algorithms, or machine learning, you'd probably enjoy working on Daala.

Shortcut (www.shortcutapp.com) London, San Francisco - Ruby / Android / iOS
Hi I'm Buf, one of the founders at Shortcut. Shortcut is all about making live event concessions better. $50B goes through concessions every year. No one knows who spends this money. We want to give this data to the venue while at the same time make life easier for the attendee.
Shortcut is founded by early employees of Eventbrite and Uber. We allow attendees at live events to order food/drink/merchandise from their phone. They can then have it delivered to them or pick it up via a fast lane.
We have just completed the Techstars program and raised a seed round (which is not public until late September).
This is mainly a Rails job, but there would be portions of Android / iOS once in a while.

Engine Yard - Fulltime, REMOTE
Frontend Engineer
We're one of the oldest PaaS's out there, with support for PHP/Ruby/Java/node.js and both AWS and Azure. Earlier this year we launched a brand new user experience from the ground-up -- a new website and a completely new client-side interface. As a Frontend Engineer, you'd be working primarily on the latter.
The UI is written using angular.js served up by a lightweight node.js api proxy server. We use jasmin/protractor/selenium for our tests and only accept green builds via travis to be merged to master. Through our "eybot" on slackhq, we deploy stable code to production multiple times a day.
The UX engineering team at Engine Yard consists of 3 UI designers and 4 engineers (including myself). We're spread out across 8 timezones (Dublin through San Francisco), so experience working in a distributed team is key.
You'll get:

As an engineer, you can touch on spacecraft design, optics, communications, image processing, operations/optimization, GIS, and a bunch more. I'm a EE and I'm currently working on groundstation hardware, but there is a lot of work to go around that will push you beyond just web development.
Come build real hardware that will then be sent to space! https://www.planet.com/join-our-team/

FanJam - http://fanjam.com - Haskell Engineer
Remote OR in Chattanooga, TN
Do you love sports & programming? At FanJam, we're building a new kind of fantasy basketball game on web and mobile. Were a small team with backgrounds in startups, consulting, and venture capital. Our team shares a love for either sports or haskell, but we all share a common love for building the best work place.
In this role, you'd be mostly working on our backend in Haskell, developing core components, features and infrastructure. We're looking for people experienced in building large software projects in a functional programming paradigm. You write clean code using a modular approach. You care about things like good API design, know what REST is and how to use its principles (and when not to).
We invest in our people, and team build through whiskey, basketball games, and hack weeks. We keep the fridge stocked, stay as transparent as possible, and will buy whatever resources you need to keep learning (books, screencasts, etc) We're still a small team, so this is a great opportunity to have a big impact on the product and our culture. We're looking for people with a passion for their work with high standards. Ideal candidates have a demonstrated experience hacking stuff; code samples are best (GitHub, a personal website/blog, previous projects are all great).
Skills were looking for
• Proven experience in Haskell or other functional programming languages.
• Familiarity with Javascript is a big plus, since that means you can handle our client-side too when necessary.
• Being able to get things done and to ship code.
• Experience with large code bases and structuring code in a modular way.
• Affinity with the web, browsers and new web technologies.
• Familiarity with basic development tools: you know your way around git, bash, grep and sed. You're not afraid to write a shell script to automate some stuff.
• Have a good sense of humor and leave your ego at the door
• A desire to get better every day

At OpenSignal we're using mobile apps to tap into the smart phones we're all carrying around with us to build up global crowdsourced sensor networks. Our first [1] is for wireless signal where we are building a global database on the coverage and performance of wireless networks (both mobile + WiFi) on a scale that has never before been possible. Our second sensor network is WeatherSignal [2], which uses the barometers, thermometers and hygrometers on smart phones to crowdsource weather data and we have already published a scientific paper [3] showing the potential of this approach. If the concept of crowdsourced sensor networks appeals to you too then please get in touch. We are hiring for all manner of different roles right not (backend, frontend, UX/UI & data science) but most of all we are just looking for smart, like minded people rather than people with specific, existing skills.

Smarkets, London, UK. We're hiring Software Engineers. Python, Erlang, Web-UI and Mobile. Sorry, no remote.
Smarkets is a modern betting exchange with significantly lower transaction fees than the competition. We're a well-funded company with a small, agile development team, and our platform has handled over £600 million of bets since launching in 2010. Smarkets has been featured in publications such as Wired, The Wall Street Journal and TechCrunch and was recently selected as part of the Startups 100.
We are taking on the big players in the betting industry with the lean startup playbook. We think the commission charged by such players is too high, spelling for opportunity to do better.
We're building a reliable, low-latency, highly concurrent betting exchange based on trading exchange designs. We're also building a fast, modern web interface to allow for a smoother experience. Servicing our users is top priority. Whether you want to work on the trading exchange or the frontend, you'll be solving real and challenging problems - from scaling to optimising python to handling near real-time design constraints.
The Smarkets platform is written predominantly on Python and Erlang, and relies heavily on asynchronous programming techniques. We use REST where we can. Life at Smarkets circles around version control, configuration management and automated testing. We can, and do, deploy to production several times a day.
Our software stack is built around Linux, Vagrant, Flask, Eventlet, Postgres, RabbitMQ, Git and Chef - but we are not resistant to change as needed.
For all our jobs, visit http://info.smarkets.com/about/jobs/

Gurock, www.gurock.com - remote/world-wide - HQ in Berlin, Germany
About Us
===================================
We are a small & successful bootstrapped software company from Germany and build popular web-based applications for software teams. We have been in business since 2004 and many thousands of teams, both small and large, use our products. We are hiring for different positions, but our main focus right now is on hiring a technical support engineer to help us support our TestRail customers as well as account engineers to help us demo/sell our products.
Those are not typical support and sales roles though, as our products and customers are very technical (they are software dev/testing teams), so both positions are quite challenging.

I'm building the core team at StoryWorth and hiring for three roles:
* Marketing and Partnerships lead. I’m looking for someone who can think creatively about our customer acquisition strategy then be highly analytical about executing on it.
* iOS Engineer. You’ll be responsible for building our mobile app from scratch, working closely with me on the design and with our web engineer on the backend. Prior experience building an iOS app is required.
* Full-stack Web Engineer. You’ll be taking over the core engineering of the site from me, scaling it as we grow and implementing major new features. You need to be comfortable with Python, HTML and CSS. Bonus points if you have an interest in design.
StoryWorth makes it easy for people to privately record their family stories. Each week, we email our customers a question about their life, for example “What do you remember about your grandmother?” or “Tell me about the day you got engaged”. All they have to do is reply with a story, either by email or by phone. We save their stories and share them privately with their family.
We have a launched product with paying customers across the country who love our service. This is an opportunity to be part of the core team that is going to help every family in the world record their story for generations to come.
You're a good fit for these roles if you crave a ton of responsibility on a small team. If you're the kind of person who learns by doing, you'll be learning faster than ever before. All roles require 3-5 years of experience.
If you're interested, I'd be happy to tell you more. Email your resume to [email protected], I can't wait to hear from you!

Scribd (YC '06), San Francisco - VISA, FULL-TIME, and INTERN are all welcome
Scribd ("Netflix for eBooks", top 100 website, 50 people) is hiring talented hackers of all kinds to help us build the library of the 21st century.
We've hired EIGHT full-time people and TONS of interns from these "Who is Hiring" threads ... it really works!
We're looking for people who want to work with:
* Ruby on Rails (we're the #2 largest rails site, after Twitter)
* Javascript (well, we use Coffeescript)
* iOS OR Android (we're a top 10 eBook app with more reviews than Wikipedia, with a tiny mobile team)
* Machine Learning / data mining / recommendations - think Netflix prize, but for books!
* Big data and web infrastructure - we're big users of hive, impala, and hadoop
* Internships: junior standing or above for all areas of engineering. We hire several interns every summer and year-round.
That said, we care way more about your personality and general hacking skills then what languages you've used so far, so if you haven't used these but want to break into mobile or web development, this could be a good opportunity for you. We've hired people from these threads with everywhere from 0 to 10 years of experience.
We're profitable, very well funded and have a really fun office environment (go-karts + a rock climbing wall!). Scribd alumni have gone on to found 4 other YCombinator companies, more than from any other startup. We think this says something about the kind of people that we like to hire, and we love hiring people with entrepreneur and startup ambitions. We are also always looking for international people interested in moving to the US and can help you secure a visa.
You can read more about our "Netflix for Books" service here http://wrd.cm/1dJquzz or check out our tech blog at http://coding.scribd.com
More info is at http://www.scribd.com/jobs, but as a HN user, feel free to apply directly by emailing me at jared at scribd.com.

Heap (YC W13) - Software Engineer - San Francisco or Remote
https://heapanalytics.com/jobs
=== What's Heap? ===
Heap is taking a new approach to web and iOS analytics: just capture everything. Whereas other analytics tools require you to define events upfront, Heap lets you run instant, retroactive analytics without writing code.
=== The Role ===
Your creativity and intelligence are much more important to us than your experience with our stack. We're eager to meet all types of engineers, regardless of where you live or what tools you use day-to-day.
We’d like to get to know you if:
* You enjoy teaching yourself whatever is necessary to build something.
* You plow through obstacles.
* You’ve written 10,000 lines of code that look really embarrassing in retrospect.
* You’ve written 10,000 lines of good code since then.
* You communicate ideas with clarity and precision.
* You make decisions with a preference for empiricism and measurement.
* You like fruit, sunshine, and bad jokes.
Our stack is Node + Redis + Postgres + Backbone + D3. Some things we're working on:
* Data capture. We’re integrating with more clients and frameworks, including Android, AngularJS, and Backbone.js, all with virtually no performance overhead or integration cost.
* Real-time infrastructure. We support an expressive set of queries that allow our users to slice and dice the data in arbitrary ways. The results need to come back with sub-second latencies and reflect up-to-the-minute data.
* Data visualization. Simple pre-generated graphs just don't cut it. There's an enormous number of ways to organize the data. Existing tools only scratch the surface.
Heap was in Y Combinator’s W13 batch. Soon after, we raised a $2M seed round from Ron Conway, Ram Shriram, Sam Altman, Garry Tan, Alexis Ohanian, Harj Taggar, and others.
We work in SF but are absolutely open to remote engineers. Email us at [email protected] with reasons as to why you'd make a great fit.
