Who we are: The Modular Company, tech DD services for Venture Capital and Private Equity customers.
We're growing rapidly, we doubled year-on-year for the last three years, looking to do this again this year. Right now we have a mix of part and full-timers that form two teams and we are looking to build a third team in the next three months.
We are looking for an all-round tech person to help out with the Due Diligence work we do, preparation, interviews and report writing. Competitive salary, stock and bonus. If you are curious, want to know what makes things work and would like to join a team that consists of interesting people then please respond, we're color blind, age agnostic (our team spans 3 decades) and would be happy to hire women, men and in fact anybody else as long as they positively contribute to team and atmosphere.
Warning: this work is not for everybody. It is super intense, we deliver a 20-30 page report each week, it is fun and addictive but if you are unable to pace yourself then likely you are better off in a more regulated environment, we are not going to 'hold your hand' but give you all the freedom you need to succeed or mess up. English writing and speaking skills are almost as important as your tech background. We are 'radically transparent', that means that once every month we send out a very detailed report on how the business is doing to ensure that everybody is on the same page. This includes financials, a retrospective of the past month, looking forward to the month ahead and anything else that might be of interest.
Location: Near Amsterdam, Netherlands (Hilversum) Remote is ok, but some office presence required, we work all over Europe. Some of us work from abroad (Poland) but this is while workable, not ideal so if you're in or near Amsterdam or Hilversum that would be better.
You may contact me through [email protected] if you're interested.
No recruiters or agencies please.

The US Department of Veterans Affairs recently released a new online tool that makes it much easier for Veterans to apply for compensation claims. Based on user research, if the claim is for something like PTSD, it encourages the user to take a break and also includes crisis line info. Because the tool is digital instead of paper, it eliminates entire classes of mistakes and means that claims are processed a lot faster.
Lots of government systems need to work so much better for people. Why not join us in DC to tackle some really impactful projects? I'm always happy to answer questions if people want.

We do emulators, JIT, hypervisors, stuff similar to valgrind, debuggers, manual disassembly, binary static analysis, parsers, and assembly. We write our own low-level tools, frequently in C99 to run on Linux. We also use IDA Pro, ghidra, qemu, Simics, JTAG debuggers, gdb, Coverity, KlocWork, LLVM, and so on. Easily transferable skills include those related to compilers, kernel drivers, embedded RTOSes, vectorizing, firmware, VxWorks BSP development, symbolic execution, boot loaders, software verification, concolic testing, abstract interpretation, satisfiability (SAT, SMT) solvers, and decompilers. We work with more than a dozen architectures including PowerPC/ppc, MIPS, ARM/Thumb/AArch64, x86/x64/Intel, DSPs, and microcontrollers. We hire from no-degree to PhD. Common degrees include Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering, and Mathematics.
We don't normally work overtime, and we get paid more if we do. We're never expected to take work home or be on call. Because of the citizenship requirement, there is no chance that the work will be outsourced. Flex-time is fairly extreme; some do randomish hours.
Location hints: Pick Arlington for a car-free life, subway included. Pick Florida or Texas to live in a place with solid gun rights and no state income tax. Pick Florida for almost no traffic or commute, surfing, and a median house price of about $150,000.

Berkeley Lab (https://www.lbl.gov/) is looking for a talented web developer who will work on building powerful web-based tools for materials scientists on the Materials Project team (see https://materialsproject.org). The Materials Project is one of the world’s foremost databases of computed materials science data, and has helped pioneer a change in how we design and search for new materials, with a large active community of users in both academia and industry. We use millions of CPU hours a year in our calculations, and all of this data is publicly available and free of charge, and we develop all our software openly and under open source licenses.
This is a great opportunity for a developer with an interest in science and energy-related innovation. You'll work with a team of scientists and engineers and will have a major impact on any aspect of the project that interests you — from application architecture to data visualization.
A successful applicant will have experience in:
* HTML/CSS
* JavaScript — someone who is happy to help maintain our legacy platform {Backbone.js, CoffeeScript, Require.js} but is also not afraid of new technologies where appropriate {React / Plotly Dash}
* Web services technologies and REST APIs
* Information visualization — knowledge of javascript graphing libraries such as {d3, HighCharts, Plotly} and understanding of information visualization techniques highly relevant
Ideal applicants will also be experienced with:
* Python and Django (or similar framework)
* Writing unit- and end-to-end tests for client side applications
* Unix environments
* User interface design principles
A successful applicant will also:
* Be keen to work as part of a small team, including working with other researchers (graduate students, postdoctoral researchers, collaborators) who are excited about sharing their data with the world
If you're interested in applying, or you simply want to ask some questions about the position (I’m the team’s lead web dev), feel free to ping me at [email protected]. The official position description and application portal is at <https://jobs.lbl.gov/jobs/web-developer-1934>, but because Berkeley Lab is a public research institution, the hiring/contract style is different than a typical industry job (e.g. “1-year term appointment” means guaranteed for 1 year at minimum -- this position definitely has long-term, extension-without-reapplication potential; full benefits start from day 1; etc.), so again please feel free to ping me for any clarification. :)

Position is from now until March. Three days a week on my project gets you a free room and free food. Creating a Patreon meets Reddit kinda site. User pays $5/mo, we take $1 to run the servers without ads or tracking, then the remaining $4 gets split evenly between everything they upvoted that month. Philosphies I'm going into this with: Entirely open source, no ads ever, all analytics are purely opt-in. I'm a front end guy and right now I'm grinding my gears with the backend, so anyone that can create node apis secured with JWTs is really who I need. Big bonus points if you've worked with Stripe's API or cloud storage before.

Repl.it is the first open computing platform where anyone, even without even needing an account, can hop on and in seconds start executing code, build and host applications and websites, and collaborate with other people.
Providing a service like this is challenging from all a scaling, security, and billing perspectives. Additionally, supporting the number of languages that we do (https://repl.it/languages) is hard from both a hard systems tooling problem -- we have to build generic protocols for executing, debugging, authoring code, running tests, handling files, etc.
It's a great time to be joining us, we're still 8 full-time people, we reach more than a million coders a month, and we're backed by YC and a16z.

We're looking for a lead engineer to take the reigns for the backend development team. As we've begun to quickly expand our team we need a lead for the application development side that can work with the data team, our prototyping team, sales engineering, and the principles of the organization to craft the way forward as the teams and demands grow.
You should be adept at taking the goals and turning them into tasks for the team, ensuring the output is inline with the long term roadmap and ensuring any hiccups or noise from new team members, or more junior engineers is effectively filtered out. You will take charge of ensuring the test coverage is sufficient, that the team is following processes you need to move the ball forward, and that tasks are correctly architected and validated.
Experience in a particular language or technology is not essential, but you should definitely get excited about building cutting edge big data security products.
Some of the technologies and tools that we currently use: Elixir, Go, Python, Scala, Elasticearch, Kafka, Spark, Beam, BigTable, BigQuery, Amazon Aurora, AWS, Azure, and GCP.

The Content Engineering team is in need of both software engineers and senior software engineers, onsite in our new San Francisco office, onsite in our Toronto office, or remote within the United States. The Content Engineering team was newly formed with the dual mission to own and update Scribd's existing content metadata pipeline and build new metadata that can be used by the search, recommendations, data science, and frontend teams to build more useful and intelligent features. The work includes building data pipelines, data engineering, and a touch of machine learning.
Scribd has a very friendly, engineering-driven company culture with competitive salary and great benefits. We are ambitious but at the same time we value a good work life balance. In general we care way more about your personality and hacking skills than what languages you’ve used so far.
