Grand Rounds[1] was recently named Best Digital Health Company to Work For[2] by Rock Health, and is currently recognized by Glassdoor's as the #2 Best Places to Work[3]. We are also represented on Wealthfront's Career Launching Companies[4] for the second year in a row and are looking for talented Software Engineers to join our mission.
For this particular opening, we're looking for an experienced React Engineer to join our growing team. You'll leverage your skills in a fast pace environment to help us deliver the next generation of our mobile applications as well as be a key contributor in the standardization of front end components and application services.
We're building on the modern ecosystem of JavaScript technologies. You'll be immersed with ReactJS, ReactNative, Redux, GraphQL, Jest, Yarn, and will have the autonomy to help shape the toolchain. The team you'll join is comprised of 3 other software engineers, a test engineer, product manager, designer, and a UX/UI researcher. We have clear business goals to achieve.
The ideal candidate will have led in the development of a JavaScript application at scale. You'll mastered JavaScript long ago, knowing the pitfalls of asynchronous javascript, and know how to leverage modern standards to avoid them. You'll evangelize importance of encapsulation, separation of concerns and other best practices that lead to building reusable components and libraries. You'll have had experience building ReactJS components and GraphQL APIs. Knowledge of Ruby and Rails a huge plus.
This an ideal position for a highly motivated individual wanting to make a significant impact through the work they do. If this sounds like you, please reach out to me brett@grandrounds (mention HackerNews) and we'll be in touch.

We are also represented on Wealthfront's Career Launching Companies[3] for the second year in a row and are looking for talented Software Engineers to join our mission.
You'll be embedded in an agile team tasked with business problems to solve and a solid, well built platform to leverage. We believe in empowerment through autonomy. We employ a services oriented platform[4] primarily utilizing Rails on the back-end and React on the front-end. Every new Engineer delivers code from day one.
We're specifically looking for talented Engineers with strong architectural pattern knowledge (Fowler is your preferred bedtime reading). You're familiar with the concerns of MVC, perhaps with the Redux pattern, have dabbled with GraphQl. You've used Backbone to create front end frameworks, can talk web standards and best practices. You know why accessibility is important, and have a desire to learn about building secure applications. You can debate for hours on microservice vs monolithic applications and can sniff out code smell and recognize anti-patterns from a mile away.
Here at Grand Rounds we are literally saving lives through our technology and services, it's rewarding work. Email me at brett@grandrounds (mention HackerNews) or visit our website[5] to view and apply to open opportunities.

7:50PDT - Registration is now closed.
hackernews | 13 years ago | on: Firefox OS support lands in EnyoJS 2.2
We've written a few apps with EnyoJS and it is a pure pleasure to code with. Not having to write endless lines of boilerplate code while gaining the advantages of true encapsulation really helps you keep moving forward. It's just not for mobile either, we've used it for a number of desktop browser apps.
Really looking forward to the MVC bindings (backbone) coming soon.
hackernews | 13 years ago | on: Ask HN: How do you find clients?
At a former employer we hired him on as a contractor and in the ~3 months he was on contract not a single line of code was ever produced even though there were promises made every week. Would not use again.
That said, as a past CF developer there is TON of ColdFusion work out there. Sure it is not glamorous but there are a lot worse things you could be doing for $$ :)

"The Beta release is comprised of 54 webOS components available as opensource. This brings over 450,000 lines of code released under the Apache 2.0 license, which is one of the most liberal and accepted in the open source community."
hackernews | 13 years ago | on: Announcing Enyo 2.0.1
This is an awesome release not only for the bug fixes but there are a few enhancements that I am pretty pumped about.
Really loving the framework.

This looks like an example integrating Aviary, with a seemingly sensational title.
hackernews | 14 years ago | on: Headphones for Hackers
I was able to reinforce them and they are better than ever.
hackernews | 14 years ago | on: Headphones for Hackers
BUT, they were poorly tested. Both sides have broken where they slide out of the headpiece to extend.
Spent $5 at home depot and with a bit of drilling they are now reinforced and back together.
hackernews | 14 years ago | on: Remove Google Search History Before New Privacy Policy Takes Effect
Basically you open the XUL app for the service you want to access. It acts as a chromeless firefox browser and intercepts any links you click. If it's an external link it opens it in your default browser where you wouldn't be logged into google preserving a bit of anonymity.
hackernews | 14 years ago | on: Remove Google Search History Before New Privacy Policy Takes Effect
What I want is a browser where I can be logged into Google, and any link I click will open that link in my "private" (not logged into Google) browser. Same with Facebook, Twitter, etc.
So I've started developing XUL apps to run each in their own sandbox.
hackernews | 14 years ago | on: Show HN: Photo Picker+, New Library Improves Native Photo Picker (iOS+Android)
Do you have a link to an app or apk where I could see it in action?
When ever I hit doldrums, I'd pull out the laptop and work on the app to pass time. Luckily I had a good collection of gems locally that I used for reference.
Wasn't a web app, but I'm quite proud of it.
