The only Who Is Hiring posts that are allowed are the ones submitted by the account whoishiring. That's the reason it exists in the first place. So please don't post these: it will inevitably be killed, and in the meantime you've misdirected lots of users into posting in the wrong place.

Today's thread is https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=9639001. We've moved all the comments there, except the ones where the commenter had already posted in the correct thread—i.e. the posts below should all be duplicates.

A few things we're currently working on building right now:

– Improved knowledge models so we can better predict what you know and what will help you [2]

– Infrastructure to make the site more reliable and faster for our millions of visitors every month [3]

Atlanta, GA - CallRail - On-Site - www.callrail.com

We build call tracking analytics software for small and medium sized businesses and the digital marketing agencies that serve them. The company is profitable, with a paying customer base of 18,000 companies, and recently raised a small series A round. The current product team consists of 8 people, all Atlanta-based. We're looking to add two or three more to help us build out the platform faster. Current tech stack is Ruby, Rails, AngularJS, Postgres, and Redis.

Senior Software Engineer - Looking for full-stack engineers who can help us expand the platform. Upcoming projects include refactoring key components into services, building out automated call scoring using machine classifiers, deeper integrations with other services, and improving our analytics tools.

Senior Mobile Engineer - We have aspirations of building native mobile applications, but nobody to do it. Looking for someone with experience building apps from the ground up, part of which will be scoping what features the app should include. No strong opinions on pure native vs hybrid vs Cordova vs Xamarin, but regardless there will eventually be some WebRTC components. Prefer to start with iOS, as that's where most of our customers are.

More at https://www.callrail.com/careers, or email me directly.

Software Engineers - On-Site, Cardiff, South Wales, UK - Sorenson Media

We're looking to hire multiple Software Engineers for roles which will be mostly writing Javascript, both server side (using Node.js) and client side. You do not need any Javascript experience to apply (we've hired many people without it) we find it easier to teach good engineers Javascript then to teach Javascript developers good software engineering skills.

We're hiring developers for our Spark Enhance product: http://www.sorensonmedia.com/spark/enhance/

We work in an Agile environment with daily Scrums, Retrospectives and 2 week sprints (though some teams have been experimenting with Kanban) and a real focus on the Engineering department owning the Engineering processes which means you get to spend your time writing code and have the autonomy to try changes to the processes and see if they work.

We're looking for multiple engineers with a range of experience levels (from recent grads to Senior Developers) so I can't specify specific salaries but I think they tend to be higher than most other Cardiff companies.

If any of this sounds interesting then feel free to contact me at [email protected] with any questions, CVs, github profiles etc.

Thanks - Matt
