Ask HN: Who is hiring? (March 2017)

We are an IoT startup creating a hardware / software platform for Industry 4.0 factories [1]. We collect data from industrial machinery and analyze, aggregate and display it so that manufacturers can make more product with less material. There's a lot of exciting things happening at the company and now is a great time to get into a small (8-person) team working working on a lofty mission that will revolutionize an underserved industry.

* Data Engineer: responsible for building and maintaining scalable APIs, the secure and timely ingestion of millions of time-series data points daily, building realtime and batch data pipelines and integrating models created by our data scientists into our product in order to generate realtime insights and predictions about production processes.

* Frontend Engineer: We need a solid front-end / JavaScript engineer with React experience, to help us design, build, and deploy the next-generation factory analytics platform.

* Forward Deployed Engineer: You'd be responsible for deploying, installing, monitoring and improving our on-premise devices, as well as building out the code that runs on them. Much of the code is communicating at low level (ex: Modbus) with industrial machinery and reporting back to our analytics platform.

Quora’s mission is to share and grow the world’s knowledge. We are an internet-scale Library of Alexandria, a place where people go to learn about anything and share everything they know.

At Quora, we use Machine Learning in almost every part of the product - feed ranking, answer ranking, search, topic and user recommendations, spam detection etc. Within the past few months we released a large duplicate question dataset [1], built out Quora on Alexa and Google Home [2] and linked Quora Topics to Wikidata [3].

As a Machine Learning expert, you will have a unique opportunity to have high impact by advancing these systems, as well as uncovering new opportunities to apply Machine Learning to the Quora product. As a ML Infrastructure Expert, you will play a key role in developing tools and abstractions that our other developers would build on top of.

Teachers Pay Teachers is a community of millions of educators who come together to share their work, their insights, and their inspiration with one another. We are the first and largest open marketplace where teachers share, sell, and buy original educational resources. Since we've started, authors on Teachers Pay Teachers have earned over $200M. Here's a bit more of the backstory (https://www.nytimes.com/2015/09/06/technology/a-sharing-econ...). Our engineering culture focuses on Fearless Development (http://engineering.teacherspayteachers.com/2015/10/11/the-fe...), curiosity, learning, and autonomy.

We're currently running our infrastructure on AWS with a combination of terraform and chef to manage our servers. The tiers of our application are built with AWS Aurora, Elixir, and React.

If you want to learn more about us, check us out on The Muse: https://www.themuse.com/companies/teacherspayteachers/.

I'd be happy to chat about positions over email at recruiting@teacherspayteachers.com or check out our careers page (https://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Careers).

We’re building software that is changing the construction process (think GitHub for construction). Our users love our app because it helps them build real things more efficiently. By joining our team you can influence product decisions and work on interesting technical challenges (our client apps work with GBs of blueprints and metadata). Our engineering teams are small; whatever team you work on, you'll have a chance to have a big impact.

We’re hiring across all of our engineering teams: Android, Web, iOS, Windows, Backend (Python).

Omni is an award-winning news app (and website) with the focus on personalization, and quick and complete news coverage (aggregating all other news sources). You will be part of a small and efficient team (4 full stack devs, 1 UX, and 1 designer in Stockholm; 4 Android and iOS devs in Gdansk) who have just begun expanding the app into new markets. We're small enough that you will have a big impact, but there's still plenty of career opportunities within the rest of Schibsted. We're looking for a senior engineer that is very experienced with javascript and node.js (or so good at other stuff and willing to learn that it doesn't matter). The rest of our stack consists of Postgresql and Elastic Search, virtual-dom for the web, and Heroku and Kubernetes/AWS for hosting. However, we're constantly experimenting and innovating and no strangers to trying new technology when we get a good opportunity (personally I can't wait to use Elm in production; we just need more devs who knows it!). Email me at andreas@omni.se if you're interested.

Stealth startup based in Brooklyn seeking a third technical co-founder. We’re two engineers that have worked together for before and founded the company last year. Working to make data (big and small) easier for companies of all sizes. We’re deeply disappointed with the ETL tools in the market and are taking a new approach. Our product focuses on usability, reliability, and security. We integrate with the most common data sources (data bases/warehouses, Hadoop, cloud services) across the three major clouds: AWS, GCP, and Azure. Our product has a hosted model and a self-hosted/on-prem (quick deployment) model to meet the needs of any customer.

Our stack is centered around containerizing everything (using Kubernetes). This allows us to use the right programming language for the right task. We use Java, Scala, Python and Go. Our web app is Rails and React.

We have been working on the product for nearly a year but will give up to 33% of the founding equity for the right hire. We are looking for someone who is pragmatic, efficient, relentlessly resourceful, and focused.

Necessary experience: data warehousing, data pipelines (streaming and batch), cloud computing, containers, mastery of at least one of these: Java/Scala/Python/C++.

Email us at stealthdatanyc@gmail.com. Tell us what you think we need to know about you.

We're hiring developers, build engineers, service engineers, developers, sales development reps, and director level positions, see https://about.gitlab.com/jobs/ We're a remote only company so everyone can participate and contribute equally.
