About Amara

Amara is world-class software that enables communities to subtitle and translate video collaboratively. Because of Amara, tens of millions have been impacted through greater access to educational materials, news, entertainment, and more. Partner organizations such as Vimeo, GitHub, and TED (among many others) rely on Amara for subtitling tools and collaboration ecosystems.

What makes Amara Different?

Amara is developed by a non-profit organization, the Participatory Culture Foundation (PCF), whose mission is to build a more open, collaborative world.

Our work helps make video more accessible and global. The subtitling on Amara is completed on both volunteer and paid basis (depending on project), and as we grow, we’re asking: "how do we build a more equitable future of work?"

These goals and aspirations make PCF and Amara a fun and unique org. We’re a globally distributed team looking for empathic, creative, and driven people who want to make a difference.

If this is you, we’d love to chat!
Tweag I/O | Paris, France | ONSITE | Software Engineer (Haskell, C), DevOps Engineer | Scientific computing, Exascale storage

http://tweag.io

Tweag I/O is looking for distributed systems engineers and a devops engineer to join a brand new team starting on a new, fully funded 3 year project in Haskell and in C to develop the next wave of storage solutions, targeted at the Exascale.

We are a research and development laboratory at the heart of Europe, applying functional programming techniques to tame the complexity of distributed systems and scale predictably. Most of our existing folks have a PL research and/or formal methods background and enjoy demonstrating the correctness of their solutions with gusto: randomized test case generation, model checking in SPIN/Promela or interactive theorem proving using Coq. We are active maintainers of the Cloud Haskell project and authors of the HaskellR project, among other open source contributions.

We are a distributed company with a presence across Europe (and a smidgeon in South America), but for this position we're looking to have you join a local team near our headquarters here in Paris. We're pretty happy to look at helping you relocate if you're up to spending some time in this beautiful city. Fluency in French not required.

If you'd love the opportunity and the space to solve the hard problems of science's large dataset infrastructure, by systematically decomposing them into simple, orthogonal solutions that compose and commute like in algebra, shoot us an email at jobs@tweag.io.

Well the quick answer is JavaScript is needed everywhere.

I'd bone up on that, and learn angular inside and out as well as a couple of other JavaScript frameworks for good measure. That's what gets me hired as a C# developer in php, ruby, and java shops where I can then gradually show them I know UX, devops, and other little valuable things. The trick is that the hot thing in short supply will change this time next year and you'll need to keep a finger on the pulse of it and learn that if you're looking to job hunt.
>...admit it is our fault for thinking a Computer Science degree had any value.

CS degrees do have value. But their value is not constant, and depends heavily on the domain and requirements for a particular job. The real confusion is thinking that a CS degree is supposed to merely provide job skills training. While you get some of that as part of the deal, that's not actually the purpose of a degree -- and it never was. In that light, it really shouldn't be surprising that a degree isn't always required to be successful.
> Or maybe the ability to imagine the fate of CSS if it wasn't backwards compatible with the HTML layout model :)

You seem to be misinterpreting my arguments -- I'll assume not deliberately. They could have easily provided the same facilities for backwards compatibility of table behavior while also providing clearly-named and usable methods for doing things as basic as centering.

Is your position that CSS is a thoughtfully, well-designed system for presentation, and that the complaints of 95% of professionals web developers are the result of their own misunderstanding of it? Can you imagine taking such a position on user complaints as the CTO of a private software company?
Software Engineer | True Link Financial | San Francisco, CA (onsite)

Our software stands valiantly between scammers and grandma's money.

I found out about this big-hearted YC company from the June 1st Who's Hiring thread and started working full-time on June 15th. Here are some things I've done since then:

- Learned a ton about how payment processing works under the hood

- Used Twilio to add functionality to our phone system so our CS friends have a lower call volume

- Gotten coffee/lunch with pretty much everyone on the team (we're still small)

- Increased gif / screencap usage in PRs & code reviews

- Automated transaction auditing, saving lots of person-hours && increased test coverage

- Helped translate fast-speaking Spanish on a few CS calls

- Observed how a nimble startup implements Grown-Up-Business-Level security

- Finally actually learned what ruby's #inject method is all about

- Had a real reason to consult POODR

We're looking for nice people who have worked on hairy, wacky production full-stack code before - someone who can make things better without being rude, judgemental or arrogant about it. We'd prefer session musicians over rockstars.

Email jobs@truelinkfinancial.com and we'll get back to you within 2 business days, pinky swear!

Please don't dust that of. It did way more damage to the web than any spammer ever did.

In addition to that you failed to understand what signatures do: there is no way you can have sign a message with anybody else signature. And it doesn't require immediate cooperation if a signed message with a good reputation is used as one of several spam signals. You want to discuss viagra? Well better sign your message with a public key and have a track record of not being a spammer.

Blacklists are the de facto solution that we implemented because using that list prevented any consensus of any other method of combating spam.

Could you not potentially retire earlier? In that way you're basically "back-loading" all of your vacation time, if one could freely exchange salary for time off.

Senior Engineer | Ellevest | New York, NY (onsite)

(Job description, including interview process, is online here: http://ellevest.com/careers/senior-engineer-client-platform....)

== Our Company

We’re a well-funded, early-stage tech startup based in NYC that is reinventing financial services for women. We’re currently in stealth mode building a new kind of investment platform, which has the potential to be a disruptive and meaningful force for good. Our team has deep, successful roots in the startup and finance communities.

== The Role

We’re looking for a Senior Engineer to help develop our investment platform product. We’re looking for an engineer that has at least two years of professional experience writing code in Ruby. You have experience writing well tested code with tools like RSpec,Cucumber or Minitest. A strong attention to detail, a yearning to write well-tested, continuously-integrated code and an interest in developing software from the ground up are attributes that describe you. You work well both independently and as part of a team. You have experience writing well organized, object oriented Ruby code that goes past the basic Rails applications. You have strong feelings about “Plain Old Ruby Objects” and have a healthy concern of “magic.” Security is really important to you, even if you don’t have a large amount of experience in this area.

This is a full time development role that will have great impact on our product. You will be writing core code that makes trades in the securities markets. You will participate in code reviews, help develop our best practices and coding styles, and ultimately have a big impact as our company is starting out.

We’re a mission-driven company with a diverse team of people who value honest and transparent communication, simple and focused execution, and work-life balance. We’re building a NYC-based team and offer market compensation and significant equity for world-class candidates.

== Next Steps

Introduce yourself to our team via e-mail by sending a cover letter and resume to jobs@ellevest.com.
There aren't nearly enough warm bodies everywhere else. But you need to figure out what the term warm body actually means in your area.
The downturn in revenue also coincides with the rapid expansion of Craigslist, which devoured the previously pretty reliable classifieds revenue.

But print readership was going down for a while before then. TV news was on the rise. I think it was a lot of factors at once.
Very interesting, thank you for the response. How can God be perfect and just if he is possessive and jealous? Maybe God isn't actually a perfect being , but instead an advanced creature (who seems to be fairly needy) living in a higher order universe playing with a giant lego set (our own universe). But then who created God and the world he lives in? Heh.
If you're OK with a web based reader, I've actually found Digg Reader to be pretty nice. I know, I know... it's Digg, but still... it's not bad.

Of the desktop client readers, I still favor RSSOwl, but if you have a LOT of feeds, then performance can be a bit of a drag.
Good advice. You as an experienced professional should always ask what pain points they are experiencing and have suggestions. Even if you don't know the answer for the pain-points you can at least learn something by asking the question.
How do you figure this is lower priced? Seems like a massive price increase to me.

Boomkat.com | Senior Ruby on Rails Contractor | Manchester, UK | REMOTE and ONSITE | 2 - 6 months

We're an online music retailer selling vinyl, tapes, CDs, downloads and merchandise. We're currently rebuilding our site to use Spree (so Spree experience preferred although not required) and we need an extra developer as soon as possible. You will need to be experienced building systems with complex business logic (there's a surprising amount) and working with integrating third party protocols, APIs and file formats[1].

We test heavily using Rspec and Cucumber. We're using the AWS stack (EB, S3, etc) and whilst knowledge of these would be beneficial it's by no means a requirement. Postgres and CoffeeScript experience would be nice too. Lots of Rails experience is the main thing.

If you're interested, please email bang@boomkat.com for more information or to apply. If applying, please include your CV / Github / links to any projects you're proud of / etc, as well as your availability and your day rate.

I don't know about a single visitor, but for the top sites revenue per 1000 visits is on average around $10. For recurring visitors it's probably more since advertisers have more info about them.

There are a lot of factors that determine the value of a visit so take this info with a grain of salt.
So Wall Street has their own set of "threat indicators" now. Imagine what happens when CISA (Cyber Intelligence Sharing Act) passes, allowing them to share this data with military and police surveillance agencies. Suddenly, anyone who does "suspiciously" well on the stock market could have a federal investigation secretly launched against them.

Bold claim. If that transition goes well and we address the climate issues, I think it's more likely we'll be remembered for the internet and not for yet-another-almost-catastrophe-averted.
Clearance requests must be accompanied by a justification, which basically means "needed to work on Project XYZ". You cannot get a clearance unless you actually need it to do work, and should not be cleared any higher than is necessary[1]. This leads to the chicken-and-egg situation with cleared positions: you need a clearance to work on these programs, but you can't get a clearance for the first time until asked to work on one of these programs.

[1] Some companies will try to put you through for higher clearances than you actually need right now in anticipation of future work, but they aren't supposed to.

All of the analogies given miss some major issues.

Visual adds aren't the problem. Audio adds, adds that consume massive bandwidth that is limited, and add that track are all the problem. Normal visual adds can sometimes be nice, letting me know about products that I didn't previous know about that I might actually want to buy. But being tracked? Nope. Blocked!
Are You a Human | http://areyouahuman.com | REMOTE maybe | Detroit, MI USA

Looking for Data Scientists, Front-End and Back-End Engineers

We’re dedicated to making the digital world better for real humans. Automated programs, called bots, account for 61% of overall internet traffic today — and as the world becomes more digital, this will only increase. Ultimately, bots make it more difficult for real humans to get what they need from the Internet, and more difficult for companies who serve humans to provide high quality content and services cost-effectively. We find and verify humans by analyzing natural user behavior across millions of websites.

All humans interested in joining the team, please visit http://areyouahuman.com/careers to apply.

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

I work here as a data scientist, and the central task of verifying humans opens up a fun bag of machine learning and engineering challenges. It's also an amicable, smart group of humans to work with.
What I'd like to see is a tool that relates commits to bugs and feature which could have a dollar value assigned, therefore making it possible to capture value created in a given day/week/month.

Elevate | iOS Engineer | REMOTE or Bay Area, part time (or full time) contractor

Apple's App of the Year in 2014.
http://elevateapp.com

I work full-time on Elevate's iOS app. We make brain training games, so most of the company works on cross-platform games. I'm the one responsible for everything on iOS that isn't a game.

We ship improvements to the app and a new game every month. You would take your own tasks and help with code review for each release.

Objective C and some C++ experience is necessary, we also use Swift in some isolated places, and would like to use Swift wherever feasible.

The app is very animation heavy. CoreAnimation experience is useful. Understanding what causes performance issues and how to use Xcode's profiling tools is useful too. We have really talented designers who cry when you build ugly things.

It's a pretty chill gig. We probably need at least half of your time around a deadline, but usually you can spend as much time as you want working on stuff. The well of tasks never runs dry. We have an office, but Slack+Trello means you can work from anywhere.

Send at least your Github username to me: david+hn@elevateapp.com

Links to anything you've done that is on the App Store is way more interesting to me than a resume.

I was under the impression pay for devs in the defense sector topped out at the 80-120k mark. Which is definitely good but very comparable to unimpressive mid-senior level devs at many development shops.

If you wouldn't mind, in your experience what is the general range of pay for development work in the defense sector?
