Internet Archive is a non-profit building a free library of all of the published works of humanity to share with the world. We're not there yet, but we've managed to accumulate some data along the way. Can you help us engineer it?
The Archiving and Data Services department provides services to mission-aligned organizations (primarily other libraries and cultural heritage institutions). These services include: web crawling SaaS, managed large-scale crawls, long-term digital preservation, and particularly relevant for this role: making use of these web archives and digital collections.
We're looking for a Data Engineer to help us with some of the following: - Turn researcher Jupyter notebooks into robust systems (these notebooks are mostly in Scala) - Develop data munging/wrangling/deriving workflows (we use Spark and Temporal.io) - Help administrate a 7.5 Petabyte Hadoop cluster - Potentially write jobs for our main, in-house long term storage cluster - There's always APIs that need work (these are mostly in Python) - ML experience is an interesting bonus
We're fully remote, employees can be based anywhere in US or Canada.
This is a new opening as of Dec 1, so new we're still working on getting it posted. If interested, please reach out to Alex at avdempsey [at] archive [dot] org.

Lurk Lab is building Lurk (https://github.com/lurk-lang), a Turing-complete programming language for recursive zk-SNARKs. Lurk implements a minimal Lisp whose program executions can be proved in zero-knowledge, yielding succinct proofs that are concretely small and fast to verify. Lurk uses a Rust implementation (https://github.com/lurk-lang/lurk-rs) for expression evaluation, proving, and verification, with Nova (https://github.com/microsoft/Nova/) as its proving backend. Because Lurk is Turing-complete, it can be used to make and prove arbitrary computational claims (within resource limits).
We are looking for strong cryptography engineers, researchers, functional programming language specialists, applications developers, and start-up leaders/web3 entrepreneurs who want to build next-generation SNARK technology.
Ideal candidates will be knowledgeable about the state of the art in zero-knowledge proofs and (if looking for an engineering position) strong in Rust.
We are specifically hiring for:
- Rust Cryptography Engineers
- zk-SNARK Researchers and Engineers
- Functional Programming Language Specialists
- Software Engineers for Lurk Applications
- Documentation Engineers
- A Business Lead and/or COO
If you are interested in any of these roles, email [email protected] with CV and a brief cover letter.

We've built and deployed software to control the environment within industrial greenhouses. By optimising the inputs to the system given the latest weather forecast and sensor data we are able to more accurately control the climate (temperature, humidity, CO2) of the greenhouse, and have shown that this leads to increased yields whilst reducing resource usage. Our goal long-term is to enable autonomous, sustainable greenhouses to be deployed outside every city on earth.

Private computation, compilers, and post-quantum crypto…oh my!
At Sunscreen, we believe private computation is the future [0]. Since the cryptography needed to achieve this feat is currently inaccessible to engineers, we have built and open-sourced our (Rust-based) fully homomorphic encryption compiler [1]. Next, we’re focused on building out our zero-knowledge proof library and distributed file system.
We're looking to grow and have 2.5 - 3 years worth of runway in the bank (dependent on hiring). Join us and help make advanced cryptography easy to use for engineers [2].

Valon’s mission is to champion homeowners as the partner they trust with their home and future. Our ultimate goal is to guide homeowners through every step of their financial journey, no matter what life puts on their path.
Mortgage servicing is a counter-cyclical business (which is part of the reason we started this company!) and gets paid a recurring revenue based on mortgage loans outstanding (which doesn't really change even when mortgage originations slow).
We actually closed our Series B round this year! In addition, we've increased our loan count from 17K to 70K over the course of the past 12 months, and we hope to 5x that amount over the course of the next year. Given recent macroeconomic shifts, we're only hiring for business critical roles that will be directly beneficial to our growth.
Projects: Platform team - We’re building an internal CLI for engineers to use in their day-to-day workflows. Investor Reporting - Enabling automatic report generation and automate the draft reconciliation process. Experience - Marketplace platform for promoting new products to homeowners (like refinance options or insurance)

Cepheid is a leader in the In Vitro Diagnostics space, we had the first EUA PCR COVID test approved last year. We are vertically integrated: from building our own plastic molds and injection molding cartridges for our instruments to designing the software, hardware and wetware for our instruments, there are many opportunities to work on every level of this stack.
We’re looking for a Senior+ Software Engineer to join the team developing the software for our next-generation molecular diagnostics systems. This person will be a key contributor in the software engineering team that leads development efforts for software for commercial products as well as in-house research. The technology stack runs the gamut from Java and Windows, to Python, VueJS, Docker and Linux. Familiarity with some or all of these technologies would be nice, but we’re also open to a candidate that has a proven history of learning fast. We’re currently in the process of remediating tech debt and developing a new systems architecture, so you should enjoy solving the puzzles that come from constraints imposed by existing systems as well.
Please reach out to me at [email protected] if this sounds like it might be a good fit!

At CourtDrive.com and our sister website, CourtAPI.com, we are building solutions that enable law firms and other power courthouse website users 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 Perl developer to help us advance our mission by: building new webservices to integrate with other SaaS solutions, building and supporting our CourtAPI solution, and helping keep our modern Perl codebase well oiled.
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 a lot), 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.”

Apply here: https://getcensus.com/careers?utm_source=hnhiring | Ask me anything: [email protected]
With Census, you can power every SaaS application you use from a single source of truth - your own data warehouse. Customers use Census to define one unified view over their entire business (their customers, assets, financials, application data, really anything at all) in SQL or dbt and then "publish" that view to every single SaaS application they use: Salesforce, Zendesk, Marketo, Stripe, and over 100 more.
In the process we have created a brand new category in the modern data stack, "Reverse ETL", and we are building a data engine that can sync "anything-to-anything" in a safe, durable, and high-throughput way. We're both proud and humbled to have the fastest growing software companies in the world as customers, and we are building a world-class team to serve them.

We’re building software to automatically fix technical debt. We do this by combining expressive static analysis tooling (we’ve built a developer-friendly query language for code) with machine learning to automatically migrate code to new patterns and platforms. We’re still in private beta, but have deployed thousands of successful changes for initial customers and have raised a large seed round from top investors (Founders Fund, 8VC, Abstract Ventures).
We’ve got lots of fun challenges at the intersection of machine learning and programming languages. Our stack is Scala, Rust, TypeScript, Python, and Kubernetes. We’re hiring for both smart generalists and PL/ML experts who are interested in collaborating on problems like automatically inserting new types into codebases and using unit tests for reinforcement learning.
Here are a few reasons you might be interested in applying:
- We work fast and focus on shipping, with a single meeting per week.
- We’re working on the edge of the possible and doing deep technical work in parsers/language design and machine learning. This isn't your average SaaS.
- We mostly work in-person in New York and San Francisco, but remote is also possible for outstanding candidates who have proven success in a remote model.
- I’m personally committed to giving real feedback to everyone who applies.
