Brooklyn, NYC - Hillary Clinton Presidential Campaign

We are hiring engineers at all levels (IC and people managers) across the entire stack: frontend, backend, devops and data infrastructure.

Email your resume to Kyle Rush (me) krush@hillaryclinton.com.

Many of our applications are Python hosted on AWS, but we will be building many more applications over the course of the campaign. Here are some example applications you might work on:

Fundraising: Hundreds of millions, if not billions, of dollars process through millions of donations. We will web donations, one-click donations, SMS donations, P2P donations, mobile app donations, merchandise store, and more.

Grassroots events: Hundreds of thousands of events will be created by supporters across the country.

Internal tools: Applications that improve field organizing, HQ operations, and enable the hundreds of state staff around the country to be more efficient.

Data infrastructure - Won't say much on this except that we have a lot of data and we will be leveraging it in innovative ways.

Integrations: We have many apps, both internal and external, that we need to work well with each other.

There will be many, many, other applications. Can't stress that enough :)

x.ai - http://x.ai/ - New York City, NY - VISA - email: jobs@human.x.ai - http://x.ai/jobs

At x.ai, we are building an artificial intelligence powered personal assistant. The software will schedule meetings for our customers automatically without subjecting them to the typical back and forth over email negotiating when and where to meet someone. We are looking for a smart, self-motivated, and enthusiastic individual to join us on the journey in building the artificial intelligence of the future. You’ll get to work side by side with a small team of serial entrepreneurs moving at breakneck speed.

We are an Scala / Node.js / MongoDB / AWS company, and are looking to hire:

a) our first Infrastructure Engineer

b) backend engineer with experience in Scala.

c) web application engineer ( we use Node.js and AngularJs )

----------------

As an Infrastructure Engineer, some of the things you would do are:

* Build, manage and scale out the core infrastructure that powers x.ai, keeping resilience and security in mind

* Iterate on our continuous integration and continuous deployment pipelines

* Automate everything to a point of fault

* Constantly improve our development processes and tools to reduce friction from idea to deployment

Ideally, you would have experience with working on distributed applications, Linux, automation tools and container technology like chef / puppet / docker, and experience with at least one programming language. As a bonus, experience in AWS, MongoDB, Apache Spark would be great.

----------------

As a backend engineer some of your responsibilities would be:

* Build, evolve and scale out infrastructure to ingest, process and extract meaning out of free form text

* Design and build a system that enables seamless human-machine interactions

* Solve various optimization and constraint problems related to coordinating people’s schedules and preferences

* Integrate with various external APIs

We are a Scala team and would prefer if you have experience in the language, but feel free to ping us if you want to do hardcore functional programming. :)

----------------

As a web application engineer, you would:

* Evolve Human-Machine interaction to improve data collection for our information-hungry AI

* Design and implement clever ways to capture both implicit and explicit human preferences

* Evolve frontend architecture

* Integrate with various external APIs

We're looking for someone who's awesome at JS / HTML / CSS, and has an excellent product sense. We use Node.js & Angular, so experience with that would be great.

----------------

Email jobs@human.x.ai if you're interested, and also go to http://x.ai/jobs to check out our other open positions.
Do whatever it takes to get enough daily usage to see what's working and what's not working, then iterate. Trying to guess what your product needs is incredibly hard. It's much more likely to be a case of you not fully understanding your customers needs/wants than a missing feature [1]. Until you have it working where N leads turn into M recurring customers, don't try to scale.

Not the above, but I can chime in. Ragnarok Online private servers are (now) an entirely different beast than any of the official servers.

Automatic events, large custom maps, all sorts of fun player oriented stuff; custom classes, custom gear, new sprites for players and monsters, new colors all over the place, different balancing... All built on top of this ancient engine that's been ported and rebuilt a dozen or so times now.

Reading a bit of Ragnarok Online's private server history is very interesting.
Pangea - Chicago, IL - Full-time

DevOps Engineer (AWS, Chef, .NET, Linux/Windows, MySQL, Redis, RabbitMQ)

Pangea started with the mission of making money transfer simple, fair and safe. Since then, we’ve been striving to enhance the security, and reduce the cost and pain points of money transfer. Our first solution allows users to complete a transfer in three easy steps and pay with any US debit card, with a nationwide cash solution coming soon. Receivers in Mexico, Colombia, Guatemala, El Salvador and Dominican Republic can collect the transfers in cash or receive the money directly into a bank account. Through every product iteration, we’ll continue to offer more convenience and meaningfully improve the user experience. Pangea is currently accepting transfers from limited states (AL, ID, IL, GA, MS, MT, NM, OR and SC) in the US.

You'll play an integral role on the engineering team to ensure our infrastructure is reliable, fast and secure.

Some of your tasks include:

- Migrate non-production servers and services to a separate AWS account.

- Refactor our build process for consistency and reliability.

- Audit our AWS infrastructure and architecture and make recommendations for improvements.

- Implement above improvements.

- Refactor our monitoring and alerting infrastructure (currently using Zabbix and PagerDuty).

- Load test the infrastructure.

Partly those people's wages rise. But more commonly they live elsewhere. Those people's wages have no connection to the house prices in zone 1, because those people live further out and commute.
I know, I did this too recently, but you can build trust.

and I was mentioning my friend to friend example.

Additionally, if someone on gmail had sent me an email, it would go through my spam filters and I would see it.. if I were to reply, gmail remembers that he solicited the conversation and thus I am not blocked..

so it still works, just not so much for initiating conversations, but even then, it'll work after some time.

I wanted to let others know I went through the first and second part of the interview for Code Wrangler and it certainly was one of the more unique ones.

The first part was a Skype text chat that lasted for over an hour. It was not like anything I ever had before. For starters, there is no conversing through voice. I talked pretty much only about why I chose Elixir for a project and explaining a lot about Elixir itself. The interview itself seemed like a test to see how well I knew what I was talking about, could convey information to someone without experience in the tech, and remain calm without getting frustrated about someone questioning everything, etc.

The second part of the interview was trial by fire of taking a WordPress plugin, adding a new feature, and ultimately improving it. If you don't work in PHP or have any experience in WordPress this is a lot more work than you'd expect if you are like me and go to serious lengths to improve it all around. I myself have neither real experience in PHP or WordPress. I was given a week to accomplish this, but strangely enough my contact never followed up with me after I told him I had completed it via Skype until I sent him an email several days later. I did get some feedback, but at this point I had decided on taking a job offer from someone else rather than chance not getting hired after their Trial, if it were to be offered to me, which it sounded like based on the feedback I would.

For the most part, the process left a favorable impression, so don't be scared to give it a shot. I think the roughest part was my contact was not US based, so you can't get responses as quickly.
The problem with your argument is that nobody can legally validate it's central premise, because nobody is allowed to review applications to the FISC.

Unless you have some sort of inside track, I must ask you how you know that applications are thorough and well constructed? Because the only way to be sure is to allow for public scrutiny, but the whole point of the FISC is to avoid this.
Pretty much everyone opened the docs, including the CTO. If you're more comfortable on Windows, that's fine, use Windows, but remember that you're using Windows.
The key point is that this is the first widely deployed 32-bit RISC platform with a 16-bit instruction set to come off patent. That has advantages for the embedded applications being targeted in this case. You won't get that with a MIPS or ARM clone because MIPS16 and Thumb are still under patent.

tl;dr - We’re profitable, pride ourselves on a supportive company culture, and hiring across the board. EdTech.

Course Hero is looking for engineers who can hit the ground running in a variety of roles:

★ Full-stack web

★ iOS

★ Android

We’re also hiring in product and marketing.

Our team releases code every day to millions of people, so we're looking for someone who can take on challenges, build new features, and iterate quickly. Each engineer has a role in building Course Hero's architecture and will have the opportunity to touch all parts of the stack. Our projects are big but our team is small, so you’ll see projects from start to finish, working closely with product managers and designers to ensure successful results.

Our company culture is very open, flat, and transparent. We succeed and learn together. Our office is very comfortable, has a lot of natural light, and great amenities like a gym and walking trails onsite. We’ve tried hard to make this a pleasant and inspiring place to do creative work.

Most importantly, we seek to hire individuals whose personality, integrity and passion for our business make our team better as a whole. We’re growing fast, profitable (yes, it’s true!), and looking for another core team member to push us toward the future.

For mobile, we’re focused on iOS and Android for now. Our web stack is LAMP (Symfony/PHP) + jQuery and AngularJS, but we’re open to people with all kinds of experience.

Please, no recruiters. Principals only.

A related question is why all this space is being taken up providing government-subsidized parking for cars rather than decent housing for humans. http://www.nytimes.com/2010/08/15/business/economy/15view.ht...

One major problem with living in a car is the lack of a toilet.
Can you demonstrate that? I've had taxi drivers say the exact opposite: in times when there are too many medallions available, they believe that cabs spend a lot more time either looking for fares or stopped waiting for fares. That's because the incentive for each individual cab driver is to keep driving during the slow times hoping to get lucky, and hoping to make things up during the peaks.

The Press Release Is Dead – Use This Format to Pitch Instead
I always find these discussions around contractor or employee rather lacking in context of other businesses that have operated similarly (i.e. using contractors) for decades. The obvious example to me is Landstar Systems [0], which uses the term owner operator and emphasizes the fact that drivers do not operate on 'forced dispatch.' Of course, they usually neglect to mention that Landstar handles the insurance for their owner operators (the company self-insures), and the drivers can't drive for any other company on that insurance policy. So, in effect, these drivers don't work for any other freight provider.
