Ask HN: Who is hiring? (December 2016)

Open positions: Software Engineer and Senior Software Engineer

All positions ONSITE. Relocation assistance available.

We are a development shop that focuses on software craftsmanship. Our calling is to help companies create amazing, intuitive web & mobile applications, APIs, products, and services.

Pair programming, continuous integration & delivery, kaizen, and TDD/BDD aren't just ideas we pay lip service to, but core practices of our day-to-day work.

We use lots of Ruby, Python and JavaScript, some Elixir and Go. Lately we’re doing mostly React on the front-end and React-Native for mobile.

At ChowNow, we build online ordering systems for our over 4000 restaurants. We're launching some new products in the coming months that I'm really excited about. I love working here as an engineer. It's a great balance of challenge, freedom, and impact.

We've been growing quickly and we're looking to hire a DevOps engineer! For some background, we had a manually configured AWS infrastructure that we've just retired in favor of an Ansible / Terraform-based setup. We've automated infrastructure and deploys so it's a great time to come in and shape where we go from here. For example:

* Dockerize everything?

* Build out a Kubernetes cluster for our services?

* Use Spinnaker for a Continuous Delivery pipeline?

To be determined!

We also have positions open for Front-End (Ember.js / Node) and Back-End (Python) engineers on our careers page at https://jobs.lever.co/chownow?lever-via=MO5-ac-qvc. If you're interested or have questions what it's like to work here, please contact me at kevinlondon@chownow.com or our recruiter, Candice, at candice@chownow.com.

Shift is a start-up that provides a SaaS solution to insurers to automate fraud detection. We've raised €10m from Accel and other investors and already have clients in 7 countries.

Tech: Windows, .NET (C#), SQL Server, JavaScript, React, d3.js, VMware, Azure, Git

We're looking for a lead systems administrator, web developers (including lead) and backend developers to work in Paris (our head office) and a backend developer to work in Singapore.

We're a small team of engineers, designers, and product builders that were brought in to help fix Healthcare.gov in the winter of 2013. Our revamped application is used by millions, converts 35% better, and halves the completion time.

It turns out there’s a lot more to reimagine within government services, which is why we’re partnering with the Department of Veterans Affairs to modernize their appeals system, making millions of veteran’s lives better through the process. Today, the average appeal takes 5 years to process; we can fix this.

It’s surprising how much can be done by a small group of empathetic people with a Silicon Valley mindset, deep technical experience, working closely with dedicated civil servants in government. We’ve started Nava as a public benefit corporation to radically improve how our government serves its people, and we believe that the services our government provides should be clear and reliable. If you feel the same way, we'd love to hear from you at jobs@navahq.com

Amazon's New Product Demand Forecasting team is responsible for one of the most challenging problems in supply chain optimization: predicting sales for products that have no sales history. This is a uniquely creative space in Forecasting requiring our machine learning models to capture both the nuances of the global consumer marketplace as well as customer behavior on Amazon. Our team works closely with research scientists to invent new ways to make use of novel data, solve hard engineering problems around scaling and performance in predicting for tens of millions of products, and iterate quickly in order to stay on the cutting edge.

I'm looking for an experienced software developer that is comfortable with big data and machine learning and can:

* Design systems that provide a stable base for innovation in a rapidly changing business

* Improve Forecasting algorithms through data-driven analysis and experimentation in our Scala/Spark environment

* Optimize for scalability and performance of both distributed computations and near-metal C++ code

* Learn quickly and keep up with a rapidly changing machine learning and big data landscape

* Communicate their ideas clearly with all members of a diverse team

If this sounds interesting, as the hiring manager I'd love to chat or buy you coffee. Email me (Stefan) at smai@ (amazon.com) with your resume and a brief introduction. (Interview process is 1 phone screen and onsite interview with whiteboard coding and behavioral questions about your experience.)

Please read the below if you are planning to post here and would like to have your offer looking good on the map.

I've been doing this since August last year, both parsing the thread and adding this comment here. But this time I would like to only slightly improve one thing: the format.

First, I would like to say that I really like that this thread is one of the few places where hard format for jobs isn't required. The format change that I'm asking for is minimal and a lot of people already post their posts in similar or exactly the same format.

What I’d like to ask is for the format of the first line to be like this:

  1) {company} | {job title} | {locations} | {attrs: REMOTE, INTERNS, VISA, company url}
  Google | Software Developer | SF | VISA https://google.com
  DuckDuckGo | Software Developer | Paoli PA | REMOTE, VISA

  2) {company} | {job title} | {locations}
  Google | Site Reliability Engineer | London, Zurich, Sydney
  Facebook | Web-developer | London, Zurich

  \s*(?P<company>[^|]+?)\s*\|\s*(?P<title>[^|]+?)\s*\|\s*(?P<locations>[^|]+?)\s*(?:\|\s*(?P<attrs>.+))?$

To HN moderators. Apologies for highjacking the thread. I'm getting really positive feedback about what I'm doing here. I just want to improve this one thing.

Feedback welcome.
