Coalition is working to solve cyber risk. We are a small team of security experts, insurance professionals, and intelligence community veterans building a better cyber insurance product. Coalition is automating risk assessment to make purchasing insurance easy, and using our knowledge to educate clients and mitigate risk where possible.
We're rapidly growing and scaling our team to accommodate that growth. We are looking to hire engineers, product managers and an engineering manager who can help us maintain a high standard of engineering while increasing the scale and functionality of our products. These roles come with a significant amount of responsibility and autonomy.
Our front-end is in React, our back-end is built with Flask running on Python 3.6, with some services in Node, and our infrastructure is hosted on AWS. We are also always open to new technologies; we believe in using the best tool for the job.
Email jobs@thecoalition.com for more information.

We are a stealth startup working to build the next generation of software for the travel industry. You will join a small (but growing) team, work alongside talented and incredibly ambitious people (but who really know how to enjoy their time off), and have the unique opportunity to shape our core platform and tackle some of the most interesting challenges in travel today. If there is one thing we can promise is that you will learn a lot.
We just went through Y Combinator (S18) and recently announced our seed round from top VCs (Index Ventures, Blossom Capital and Kima Ventures).
Our stack: Elixir/Phoenix, Next.js/React, PostgreSQL, Kubernetes, GCP.
Feel free to reach out to me directly at steve@duffel.com if you are interested or have any question.
At Inforuptcy.com, we are building solutions that enable investors and traders in bankruptcy to become more efficient by automating daily tasks. We’re based in Los Angeles but have a remote team worldwide (Canada, Europe, Armenia to name a few).
We’re looking for a senior developer with experience in extracting unstructured data out of PDFs, preferably with Perl.
Testimonial from a team member: “Long story, but I worked there for maybe 6ish months part time a while back. They offered me full time, but I ended up going to a startup because I wanted to learn some specific technologies + up my skills in Data Science. That job was definitely good for some people, but it wasn’t as remote as they advertised it (had me fly in alot), and the team was somewhat difficult to work with ;) I ended up starting my own consulting and at the same time CourtDrive reached back out to me (perfect timing). Point I was trying to make was that I went back to work with them because they were so nice to work with. Not super demanding and very open to listening to ideas/suggestions - just a pleasant environment.”

We’re currently hiring for front-end, back-end, data scientists and DevOps Engineers. Our stack is primarily Python & JavaScript, with frameworks like Django/Flask and react.js/d3. We aren’t afraid to integrate new tech and like to keep exploring what’s out there.
We're an established startup, focused on doing important things for retail, the fourth biggest industry in the world, helping them reduce waste and be more efficient. We have a beautiful web app, used everyday by hundreds of people at Topshop, Saks Fifth Avenue, GAP and more.
Our engineering team is a group of smart people from really varied backgrounds. We’re solving diverse and interesting problems on a daily basis, like image analysis, big data visualisation and a load of other fun things that come with having a rapidly growing data set. We love good practices like extensive testing and continuous integration, and enjoy giving back to the community, so open source contributions are highly encouraged.
Our office is large and sociable; people eat lunch together every day and we have drinks and snacks in the office every Friday, as well as team days out and all expenses paid trips abroad. There’s a video on our jobs page of our most recent one: http://edited.com/jobs/

I'm not sure if I'm allowed to post here or not - we aren't a recruiting firm or job board. We are a home for freelancers/contractors and we have several openings.
Facet Development is a freelancer network made up exclusively of ex-FAANG engineers. Facet does the work of finding freelancing jobs/projects and then we send them out to the devs in the network. We also provide project management and billing/collections, help with taxes, etc, so freelancers get to spend a lot more of their time doing the enjoyable parts of freelancing and not trying to run a small business.
We target FAANG companies and companies that wish they could hire FAANG devs when finding work for our freelancer network. When I was a dev lead at Microsoft, bringing on vendors or outsourcing was a terrible experience, because they always seemed to be below our hiring bar. So I started Facet to solve the problem I had when I was an engineering manager at a FAANG company.
If you are a FAANG or ex-FAANG dev that wants to switch to freelancing or already is, you should join: https://www.facetdev.com/developer-network
You can read more about the Facet Developer Network here: https://www.facetdev.com/blog/the-facet-developer-network-th....

Blue Canvas (https://bluecanvas.io/) is a source control product for the Salesforce developer ecosystem.
We've built a hosted service with automatic source control that "just works", and modern tools to review and deploy updates. We are in a growing, opportunity-rich enterprise market: For every $1 paid to Salesforce, $3 more are spent on customizing it.
