We are a stealth startup working to fix the software doctors use. If you have seen what physicians have to put up with, it's a bad version of the 90s, and makes medical care worse and more expensive for everyone. We are a group of previously successful engineers and entrepreneurs (MIT, Dartmouth, Datapower, Stripe, Salesforce, etc) and senior doctors (Johns Hopkins, UCSF, etc) who are determined to finally fix this. Compensation: market salary & equity -- we are well funded.
Stack: includes Rust, React and Node. In addition to building our back end in Rust, we are also be solving some very interesting problems in the areas of data processing, APIs, UX frameworks and fine-grained application security.
Please email jobs@commure.com and mention "[rusthn]" in the subject line. Other positions available (Senior Front End Engineer, Senior Security Engineer), but please use [fehn] or [sehn] in subject line.
Locations: San Francisco, Montreal or Boston; sorry, no distributed/remote option at the moment.
Work from anywhere in the world that has a solid internet connection. Work as much or as little as you want. Work any day, any time of day, any number of hours -- you can do 0 one week, 50 the next week, and back to 0 the next week. Only requirement there is that we want you to roughly average at least 10 hours a week, or else the training/time investment doesn't make as much sense from your end or ours.
I know the above might sound a little strange, so a bit about the company for context: Karat is a Seattle-based startup that does software engineering interviews on behalf of other companies -- primarily first-round phone screens. Quickly-growing companies can spend a significant fraction of their engineers' time interviewing; we help take the load off. We've done a lot to make the interview experience better for all stakeholders that I could write whole essays about, but suffice it to say that candidates love working with us, clients love working with us, and we're well-funded and growing quickly as a result.
Because of this quickly-growing demand, we're looking to hire more Expert Interviewers. The ideal candidate is a software engineer with strong written and verbal English skills with at least a few years of professional experience. Interviewing experience would be great, but we spend 25 hours (paid) training you before you even start, so if you're strong technically and love working with people we can usually make it work :) Interviews are conducted over video chat, using a collaborative code editor.
Some of our interviewers are freelancers who use our scheduling model to backfill hours; others are full timers at top tech companies looking to make some extra cash; others have quit their jobs to work with us full time; some are digital nomads; one of our interviewers is road tripping around North America for a year and a half, doing anywhere from zero to 40 interviews each week depending on where he is and what the weather's like.
The application form is here: https://jobs.lever.co/karat/d44ab283-c7c0-4bbd-b8c3-4dc0ced6...
I know it's a pretty unique job, so if you have any questions reply here or email me at josh@karat.io and I'm happy to talk through any of it.
P.S. We're also hiring for our internal team -- particularly looking for senior engineers right now; for those we generally prefer local (Seattle) candidates, though we do cover relocation. More details on those here: https://karat.io/careers, or feel free to email me if you have any questions.

We're building the U.S. Securities & Exchange Commission’s next generation of analytic platforms to keep our markets safe, effective, and trusted. We’re looking for high-quality developers to design and build state-of-the-art, big data applications. Our world-class developers become full-stack experts and educated about the financial markets and security regulations.
Join a small team of talented developers, capable researchers, and former finance people. We use a modern stack of python, pandas, JavaScript/Typescript, React, and other supporting technologies (e.g. flask, klein, Node, R, and kdb+/q).
We’re hiring for 2 positions: 1) Full-stack developer (3+ years of software development experience, proficient with some of our stack) 2) Python developer (2+ years of software development experience, proficient in python development, proficient with using Linux)
The ideal candidate will also have some experience in: - Cloud development - Financial security markets/investing - Data science

The point: We are an information security/threat intelligence company. Our goal is to make the threat intelligence process run more smoothly and help organizations share threat data better. Our web app pulls threat information (both our own and via external APIs) into a graph and enables real-time collaboration and sharing of the information on the graph. (If you're aware of the tools, think of combining Google Docs with a graph editor like Maltego and mix in some process automation.)
What we're looking for: We're looking for two positions: one a mid/advanced front-end developer for the front end of our web-based application; the other a mid/advanced back-end developer. The front-end is built with React/Microcosm/Material/Vis.js, and it talks to our backend using a mix of REST and WebSockets. The back-end is built in Python with Django/Django Channels. Ideally, the UI person we're looking for would be comfortable doing both the React programming side of things as well as the HTML/CSS/layout work, and the backend person would be comfortable with some Golang/command line work. There would also be some design work as we roll out new features to the site and migrate data graph db in the near future.
Perks of the job: early round shares, competitive salary, 401k, & healthcare benefits. Also, we work from home a lot and our focus is on getting the work done, not on face time.
A bit about us: We are a pre-A-round startup. We have a working product and paying customers, so we're in a good spot financially. We are based in Alexandria, VA but as mentioned above, working from home is common. We tend to meet up in Alexandria once a week.
We encourage all who are interested to contact us. You can reach me at: aaron@kingandunion.com

Contract Simply (https://contractsimply.com) is looking for a Senior Product Manager in Austin or is willing to relocate.
ABOUT US
Contract Simply is building the first A.I., machine learning platform for the $900B US construction lending market. We help banks manage their large and complex construction loan portfolio using intelligent automation and integrated payments. Unlike a typical loan, a construction loan isn’t a single payment. Instead, it’s broken up into monthly payments called draws. That monthly draw process is complicated, with many stakeholders and hundreds or thousands of documents. Currently, all of this is managed with excel spreadsheets, PDFs, emails, and paper checks.
Our software helps lenders, developers, and other stakeholders produce and process this documentation automatically, leading to fewer errors, faster payments, and more profitable loans.
We’re currently small (10 employees), YC-backed, and are already working with several of the largest lenders in the industry. You’d be working directly with the founders in a company that values being purposeful, efficient, authentic, transparent, curious, and agile.
ABOUT YOU / THE ROLE
We’re looking for a product manager who is happy to take ownership of the product lifecycle and who is not afraid to get their hands dirty. Your key responsibilities will be to set the medium-term vision and strategy of the product and communicate that strategy to all of the relevant participants and stakeholders.
We offer competitive pay and benefits, plus equity. Our culture is open, transparent, and fun. We work hard, but also take time for our families, friends, and hobbies.
If you're interested, please contact me at andrew@contractsimply.com. You can also read more about the job and requirements at https://angel.co/contract-simply/jobs/322111-sr-product-mana...

I looked at their 2016 Form 990 (most recent available on Guidestar) and it looks like vast majority of funding is from contributions and grants, and revenue exceeds expenses, so that's a good sign.
But its also exceptionally sensible. Its one of those costs that look bad on the book at first but pay for themselves over the long haul by a considerable distance.
Work for big tech, but secretly dream of being an early engineer at a startup where everything you do really matters?

We're early into building our team but much farther into building our business. This makes us a really exciting place to work.
Our job offers unparalleled freedom without bureaucratic nonsense (think: can work remote, work flexible hours, no unnecessary meetings).
