Brex | All engineering positions | Full-time | Newly-grad | San Francisco, CA | 130k-250k | ONSITE

Backed by the co-founders of PayPal (Max Levchin and Peter Thiel), Y Combinator, Ribbit Capital, and Carl Pascarella (former CEO of Visa). We are building the next generation of B2B financial services with better tech and without the restrictions of legacy technology.

Our Stack is Elixir, Erlang, Postgres, Kubernetes, React, Redux, GraphQL -> We love functional programming.

What we bring

- At Brex we take input from everyone. Engineering included. Your voice will be heard.
- We’d rather have one strong, well-compensated engineer instead of having five stressed, underpaid engineers.
- Small, accountable and autonomous teams of amazing people, eager to learn, teach and constantly improve our way of working.
- We believe that great individual contributors generate as much (or more!) value as engineering managers, and we compensate them accordingly.

What you bring

- Exceptional technical background.
- Strong sense of ownership and accountability for what you’re building. What you build today will be the foundation for dozens of other systems in the future.
- Frankness on discussing technical matters. If you disagree with how things are being done, we encourage you to speak up. You can attack an idea without attacking the person behind it.
- Passion for code. We love people that take pride in and love programming, especially if they’ve done so since a very young age.

(Newly grads, contact us anyway. We love training you guys.)

Is there any evidence to suggest that it's even possible to combine "social media" with "business model" and not end up with exactly these sorts of issues? Users do not appear to have any appetite for pay-to-play social media offerings, which leaves advertising as the primary revenue stream.

Right, so how do you determine how much you have to say to tell the "truth"? If someone makes a claim about an economic policy, is it "lying by omission" to not talk about the impact previous similar policies have been enacted? Or is that inserting your bias? If you aren't telling people the facts behind the claims then are you telling the truth? Which facts you decide to share or not share can be biased.

Everything You Need to Know About LinkedIn Feed Algorithm
I think its impossible to understate how much damage Ballmer did to Microsoft. That being said: I think Microsoft is in a fantastic position right now under Satya.

Windows isn't going anywhere, and they're accepting the reality that it might just be a "portal" into web technology in a similar vein to Chromebooks. This is a reality Apple refuses to accept, for better or worse. But, Windows still comes with those massively powerful internals that enable more powerful professional experiences for the users that need them.

This is, really, the only platform in the world that champions both. MacOS obviously has those powerful foundations and can run webapps natively, but its not something christened by Apple. iOS is the same way, but with less powerful foundations. ChromeOS? Android? Linux Desktop? They're not even considerations in this world.

Then you consider the massive success of their Xbox and Azure divisions, and I think anyone who bets against Microsoft right now isn't doing it cogently. They have a lot of legacy and Ballmer's strategic mistakes to get right, but I legitimately think they'll come out of the next 5 years in a better financial position than Google.
Our platform doesn't require any specific component.

It will be open-source and free for all users to use and create assistants.

If an industrial device maker wants to use the open-source version and add to it proprietary components, it will be his decision and he should inform his customers.

The best we can do when building and open-sourcing our assistant platform is to make it possible for commercial vendors to create state-of-the-art private-by-design voice assistants if they want

There's a lot of hype surrounding blockchain. It's cool technology but IMO a lot of the talk in business (in my own sphere) sounds like, "How can we sell this expensive, flashy tech for a lot of money and cash in on the gravy train?".
People who talk about deleting their Facebook profiles are all talk and zero follow through.

> Trump's offer was made for the nation to hear

Yes, politicians often make statements for people to hear that are not in alignment with their preceding or following actions; Trump is not especially virtuous compared to other politicians in this regard. In fact, he's been frequently noted for the wide gulf between many of his public statements and not only his subsequent actions, but even his other public statements that are close in time.

Having some experience manufacturing electronics domestically I don't think it's a conscious thing. Domestic companies don't fundamentally understand cost optimization and "good enough".

As an example making a PCB with a nominal impedance spec. A domestic company will take that to mean you want full testing and careful analysis. A foreign company will quickly rough out a stack up and send you the boards.

Because my impedance spec was nominal and not critical the foreign company is the correct approach.

Always-on VPN, set up via Apple Configurator - that's the only way to be safe.

DNS Override looks nice but I haven't tried it.

Another option would be to switch to a carrier that allows this (and respects net neutrality and privacy) if you're in the UK I can provide such a SIM, and for transparency's sake you can also look up Andrews & Arnold or AQL that offer this as well. Sadly I do not know of any similar providers outside the UK.
It's harder to run zone in the NBA for many reasons, not the least of which even a bad NBA shooter is a pretty good shooter when they have room to get a shot off. Given the shot-heavy nature of today's game, you'd be hard-pressed to pull off zone against a good chunk of the league.

It was popular demand because tooling was not mature. Now we want to install programs, which are written in Rust, using system package manager, thus we demand dynamic linking.

Moreover, when part of program is static and part is dynamically linked to a C library, it does not matter any more.

For embedded systems, dynamic linking is better when more than one running application is written in Rust, to save memory and processor cache.

I'm a mobile app engineer and have been developing Android apps since 2010. I've worked for a number of well known brands such as Barnes & Noble Nook, Weight Watchers, Lulu, and Viggle. I'm able to write apps at a quick pace without compromising quality. I'm a strong believer in continuous learning and I keep myself up to date on programming trends. Most recently, I managed a team of 3 iOS developers, 3 Android developers, and 2 QA members in building and deploying various consumer and internal apps for Toys”R”Us and Babies”R”Us.

Well, in the case of PA (as an example) i believe they have a `Subsequent disclosure prohibited` portion of their statute which covers anyone who has the data preventing them from further sharing it without consent.
Yet Tinder is just one of the 150 online brands owned by IAC, a company created by legendary TV executive Barry Diller. He probably knows the value of the data they have.
It reveals the nature of the position of each party.

The US is targeting tariffs to correct perceived trade wrongs, where foreign nations have barriers that the US does not have. Or in the case of some foreign steel, it's often dumped globally, backed with State subsidies to facilitate that.

Take Russian steel as one example. It's extremely difficult to do business in Russia and to sell major industrial products like steel into Russia. Why should the US buy any steel from Russia, when the US is highly capable of producing that steel domestically instead? It makes no sense to tolerate Russia's hyper nationalist protectionism in major industry and continue buying steel from them. Reciprocating their market behavior back toward them means that Russia never gets to sell steel into the US again.

Russia buys very little from the US, representing 0.03% of the US economy. The US imports from Russia, including a lot of steel, are equal to 1.5% of the Russian economy. It's obvious which party has a lot to lose there, there's a 50 fold gap in importance to the economy.

The EU and China by contrast to the US tariffs, started out targeting the US on political grounds. That tells you everything you need to know. It's because the US has extremely low tariffs overall, and particularly extraordinarily low tariffs on agriculture. These other trade parties have very few angles of attack that aren't political in nature because the US has such a generally open economy.
So that they can be manipulated by internet media monopolies instead?
I was seeing this a couple weeks ago
People should be rightly concerned about the recent backtracking in China's governance, but that is independent of the concerns expressed here. The whole thing reeks of projection. Truth be told, America has benefited the most from the global trade era, with cheap goods and cheap capital practically bestowed like tributes from the entire world. Blame Congress for not redistributing that enormous windfall, not other countries for aspiring to the same standard of living as even the poorest Americans.

I'm OK with that. I believe people have a fundamental right to make their own decisions about what to put in their bodies, but not to expose others to harmful or unpleasant substances.

I'd like there to be more information on the health effects of vaping so that people can make better-informed decisions, but I doubt it would have a big impact. The health effects of smoking have been well-known for decades, but I think we didn't see significant declines until it became less socially acceptable.
I was definitely concentrating, and also in a semi-permanent state of yelling in terror. I don't understand why cars don't just fall off the sides of some of those roads and down into the steep ravines that appear to be the UK's (or at least Scotland's) answer to a shoulder.

Grindr has health-related datas and share it... And I guess that they have some european customers, right? Might be a really nice case for GDPR in 2 months !!! :-)
Anyone who thinks that this "rigs" a debate in any meaningful way is watching too much Hannity.

Debate questions are not some big secret surprise; the candidates drill for MONTHS on all the likely sorts of questions that could be asked. And there weren't any "gotcha" questions asked in the debate in question; just straight-up stuff that any prepared candidate could answer in his/her sleep.
At least ModernMech made an argument, which you have chosen not to do.

Dismissiveness is not a compelling argument.

Journalists have a social duty to tell the truth, as they understand it. This duty in particular extends to keeping a check on government. Participating in the deployment of propaganda is not a slippery slope, it is a violation of trust. If our journalists are willing to participate, then we have a problem.
I assume they're not very good although I've never used them. But given that Uber doesn't seem to be a practical option, I guess they're better?

Want to work on Kubernetes, Docker, GRPC and related ecosystem full-time? Itching to contribute to open source on company time? Do you love distributed systems and solving difficult problems?

DSC is looking for a senior Infrastructure Engineer, experienced in Go and K8s to help us continue to build out systems supporting our international businesses.

We're generally pretty remote-friendly once onboarded, but you will need to be available to be in office when required, so full remote is not an option, unfortunately.

Send CV & GitHub username to benjamen@dollarshaveclub.com. Feel free to reach out with any questions about the role, I'm happy to discuss.
Same with SAP. They have a cloud offering (Hana Enterprise Cloud) which can connect to existing on-premise SAP deployments. That way, they can up-sell existing customers into the cloud and then slowly migrate them to even more subscriptions.

Disclaimer: I work at SAP, but not in the same division. And not in sales either, so take my word with a grain of salt. ;)
