We need a self-reliant developer with extensive .NET experience (5+ years) who is comfortable building robust and well-tested products end-to-end. As a member of our small team, you will serve a critical role and have a large impact on what we produce.
Insurance software may not sound sexy on the surface, but we are tackling some unique and challenging problems related to groundbreaking Japanese language services on the backend, along with producing modern, high quality, differentiating, and rich user experience features.
We enjoy a friendly and collaborative work environment. We all have families and understand the value of life outside of work. Although we expect you to work full-time, we have an accommodating and flexible schedule.
.NET technologies used: C# 7, Core MVC 2, Entity Framework Core 2.0, MS SQL Server, Azure App Service, PowerShell, Visual Studio
Experience with unit testing and integration testing is required.
Strong English communication skills are required.
Experience working remotely is a plus but not required.
Knowledge of Japanese is helpful but not required.
Other technologies we utilize:
Webpack, Babel, ES6, React, Mobx, Elasticsearch, MySQL, AWS: EC2, S3, Elastic Beanstalk, Linux, NodeJS, Terraform, TeamCity, Docker, Ansible, Git
Please contact eric.lesch@bmc-group.co.jp with the subject title ".NET Developer", your resume, and any links to side projects, github, etc. Thank you for reading!
Compensation: market salary & equity -- we are well funded.
Stack: includes Rust, React and Node. We will also be solving some very interesting problems in the areas of APIs, domain-specific machine-learning and fine-grained application security.
Please email jobs@commure.com and mention "[hnjobs]" in the subject line.
Do you think you would like to come and explore what is happening in data, analytics and business transformation with us in 2018?
Are you the kind of person that just can't leave a question unanswered? Do you really want to know how things work, and share that knowledge with your team and the wider community? Do you understand how people and technology can come together to craft something special, each reshaping the other?
Endjin are hiring developers at all levels, from apprentices to seniors, to work on exciting projects with clients from all over the world, in verticals from retail to financial services, utilities and media.
We build modern data platforms in the cloud, and use them to help businesses adopt machine learning, data science, and automation.
We increase our value by using our products, blueprints and library of intellectual property, sharing the benefit with our clients and partners.
We also structure innovation programmes, process improvement, and DevSecOps, as well as delivering production-ready code, cloud infrastructure, and thought-leadership content.
We value life-long learning and an eye for quality. We will help you to find the best learning techniques, tools, and team-working, so that you can achieve your potential, and deliver the best value to our clients; while balancing your personal goals and home life.
Our employees have a mutual respect, regardless of where they are in their career. Ideas are developed by the whole team, from interns to seniors.
Equally, our clients pass the "nice to work for" test (and usually do so with flying colours). As part of that, we try to understand the ethical implications of the work we undertake. We seek to do the best we can for each other, for our profession, clients, and for the world at large.
With no external investors, endjin has been built as a sustainable, lifelong business: we are a company to retire out of, not exit at the expense of the employees.
You can work remotely from anywhere in the UK, and we hold meet-ups in London on a regular basis. You design your ideal working environment, and we will make it happen together.
Apart from a real passion for learning, you probably dream in data - how it can be represented, handled, secured and manipulated. A bit of maths improves your day. You know a couple of programming languages pretty well (we do a lot of C# and Typescript, but you may know R, or Python too). You love working with other people, but value the opportunity to spend time in your own head, thinking things through.
You can learn more about our projects at https://endjin.com, see a video about our career development pathways https://vimeo.com/200191869 or read our blog https://blogs.endjin.com
Contact us on hello-at-endjin-dot-com if you think this looks like a good opportunity for you.

We're currently hiring product managers, development roles, sales development reps and account executives, director level positions, and more; see https://about.gitlab.com/jobs/.
We're a remote only company so everyone can participate and contribute equally. GitLab Community Edition is an open-source Ruby on Rails project with over 1000 contributors.
The rules in France and Sweden around hiring contractors make it impossible for us to hire more people there.
"Thank you for your application to join GitLab. Unfortunately at this time we do not have an entity or payroll solution to hire employees in your country and do not have a business need for contractors in this jurisdiction currently."

Pivotal's goal is to transform the way the world builds software. We mean it.
We value aptitude over alma mater, empathy over a list of APIs. It doesn't matter whether your resumé says PHP or PhD: if you're smart, empathetic and know some stuff, we want to work with you.
We have many offices worldwide including SF, NYC, Toronto, London, Palo Alto (pivotal.io/locations) and more coming. We're broken into two main divisions: Pivotal Labs (that Pivotal Labs) and R&D.
-- Pivotal Labs helps clients to become better at product development. For engineering we are religiously lean and agile. We pair program and TDD every line of code from the outside. Our product managers are fantastic at keeping products sharply focused, our designers are masters from users to pixels. The goal is to teach the teachers. Our engineers pair with client engineers, often we pair designers and product managers as well.
Not many people get to transform how people think and work. Why not you?
-- R&D is a big tent these days, encompassing two major cloud platforms (Pivotal Application Service & Pivotal Container Service), Pivotal Tracker, Spring Framework, Greenplum, Apache HAWQ (incubating), Gemfire / Apache Geode, BOSH and Concourse CI. We're adding Pivotal Function Service this year. We dogfood the cutting edge of our technology on our own commercial cloud, Pivotal Web Services, run by our awesome CloudOps team. We're the majority contributors to the Cloud Foundry project and we're a platinum CNCF member with rapidly-growing contributions to the k8s ecosystem. There is a lot happening right now and there are greenfield platform opportunities.
Not many people get to work on or work with such systems. Why not you?
-- Generally
At our offices we have free breakfast, weekly tech talks, excellent benefits and competitive pay. Ping pong isn't mandatory, but it's popular. I think west-coast ping pong is harder to beat, but east-coast style is more entertaining to watch. The NYC beer fridge has more IPAs than I prefer but I guess that's life in paradise.

Who we are: We are a small company loathe to use the word “startup”. The phrase that most aptly describes us is “boutique consulting firm” as we are currently working on select software consulting projects and have a long term vision to build a stand-alone product in about a year. The future product will focus on enabling business workflows and growing workplace productivity. We are being smart in our approach balancing software consulting with our own product. We balance both to pay ourselves well and support our vision for the future.
Who you are: You are a self-starter who can work with little supervision. You are meticulous about details and sufficiently passionate to get things done, yet know when to pivot to a more experimental move-fast mode. You should be a great teammate who looks to make your colleagues more productive because you know they are doing the same for you. You love the state-of-the-art and yet understand the danger of being there and can articulate the reasons why.
Technologies:
NodeJS / JavaScript
Babel / ES6
RDMS: MySQL / Postgres
Amazon Web Services: EC2, Lambda, CloudFront, S3
GitHub
Apache Aurora / Mesos
Terraform
Docker
We’re open to new technologies too, in the right situation.

Sorry, I just found this pretty ironic. Might want to fix your application form:
https://imgur.com/a/hTUSV
I assume Greenhouse is extracting your own details from a PDF or Linkedin and asking you to fill in details.
Edit: and I guess I'd find it ironic too. The price of poetic license is two bucks and an awkward screenshot.
Edit 2: Looks like it does show up as a question for internship roles. Which a) makes sense, b) probably isn't your alma mater until sometime after the internship so I'll wiggle out on a technicality and c) includes mine so I'm OK with the coverage.
Also, the problem does not lie with the question, but the fact that the only two options available as a response are "Berkeley" and "Not Berkeley" by virtue of the single checkbox (edit: Upon further inspection, the form requires a selection in this field for submission, so the only acceptable answer is, in fact, "Berkeley").
I apologise for subtly blaming you for it. I get defensive easily, it's one of my more charming qualities, representing most of the times that I wind up looking like an idiot.
But you've done us a favour here, I'm grateful. If you're in NYC I'll buy you a beer or coffee.
PAIRIN is a social enterprise company whose mission is to make education relevant and hiring equitable. PAIRIN was founded on the belief that all people have amazing value, but most of us never realize our potential. People are too often put into ill-fitting boxes, told we can’t, won’t and will never be able to attain our dreams. Many people hear this so much they never even dream big, or pursue their goals as if they are truly attainable. At PAIRIN, this is something we want to change.
