Tellus (tellusapp.com) | Android (Kotlin), iOS (Swift), backend (Ruby/Rails), UI/UX designer, product, and growth | Silicon Valley + remote (we're flexible) | Full-time only | Competitive salaries and equity depending on role, experience, and location
We are an ambitious real estate technology startup, with millions in seed funding, founded by serial entrepreneurs looking to crack open the unyielding world of real estate and homeownership. This unique sector is riddled with extreme fragmentation and is plagued by a sea of uninspired product offerings — yet at the same time, real estate contributes up to 18% of the US GDP (and many folds that in other countries). We're a team of seasoned operators and developers that loves to move fast and wants to do something no one has figured out.
Home base for us is in the Silicon Valley but we have a team that spans eight countries. So whether you're in the Bay Area, thinking of moving to SV, or are happy where you're at, we'd love to hear from you.
The most important thing we're looking for is a hunger to change the world. If you’re looking for a challenge unlike any other and yearning to join an experienced team, then hit us up!
A few years of experience is preferred. Please email your resume and references/code samples to us at jobs <at> tellusapp.com. Please note, we generally don’t respond to generic resume blasts. We’re looking for exceptional individuals who have a true interest in what we’re doing.
Link2Feed | Sarnia, Ontario, Canada or REMOTE | Full-Time | Senior/Intermediate PHP Developer | https://www.link2feed.com
We can’t end hunger if we don’t understand it.
Link2Feed provides food banks around the world with the technology and real time reporting tools to make more strategic decisions about how to tackle hunger on a local, regional, national and international level.
Our developers see the power technology plays in changing the world and combine code with compassion to make that change every day.
The selected candidate will have the opportunity to work with a team of developers on Link2Feed’s multi-faceted platform based on PHP (Symfony), Ruby (Rails) and NodeJS (Express). The selected candidate will be critical in Link2Feed’s growth and international expansion.
This particular role will help build out our client assessment and referral toolkits, actively helping to identify the impact that food security can have on a family's life.
Head office is in Sarnia, Ontario, Canada. All other things being equal, a local daily commuter is preferred, but semi-remote is negotiable. We realize Sarnia is a little out of the way.
Send a resume and cover letter with the email subject “Application to Sr./Int. Software Developer Position” to Len Payne, Chief Technology Officer, at lpayne@link2feed.com.

SimplePay | Ruby on Rails Developers | Cape Town, South Africa | REMOTE
The story (skip this paragraph if you don't like stories in your job posts): I founded and continue to run this startup. Most of the team works from our office in South Africa. However, 5 months ago I moved to Singapore for work / personal reasons. I used to be quite averse to the idea of remote workers, but seeing as just about everyone will now be remote from my perspective, I decided it's a good time to start focusing on hiring for remote work. We’ve hired 3 remote developers so far and it’s been a great experience!
SimplePay is online payroll software for South Africa, Ireland, Singapore and Hong Kong. Our software lets thousands of small business owners (and their accountants) run their payrolls without headaches, so they can focus on the challenge of building their businesses.
Do you believe most SPAs are a pile of steaming crap, but wouldn't mind digging into Vue.js for pages that will benefit from the increased interactivity? Do you laugh when people give up the power of PostgreSQL in favour of data stores that don't offer any benefits for their use case? If so, you may fit in well with our mindset. The work will include: Doing direct integrations with banks that offer good APIs; Expanding our API for other systems to integrate with us; Adding new features; Optimising for performance; Integrating with government systems; Squashing bugs; Eventually, the opportunity to do some mobile development (maybe using Flutter).
Experience: Due to our full pipeline, we can only hire developers who have a few years of Rails experience at this time, or polyglots who at least know Ruby. Previous experience with remote work would be a bonus - we need people who understand the challenges and can share what they've learnt.
Location: Most of the team is in GMT+2, and I'll be in GMT+8 going forward. So anything from GMT+0 to GMT+8 should be OK, unless you keep unusual working hours.
Please mail careers@simplepay.co.za and put "Hacker News" somewhere in the subject. I look forward to transforming the company to being more remote-friendly.
Blackbird Studios | Lead Fullstack Developer | San Francisco | Onsite or Remote* | Contract to hire Blackbird Studios is a full service digital product studio. We specialize in a holistic approach inspired by HCD and Lean. Services include CTO consulting, product strategy, engagement strategy, UX/UI, and development plus long term BML iterations and maintenance. We work with large and small companies/startups on projects ranging from 1-6 months with 2-6 people on each project.
We build full stack web, mobile, physical installations, etc. Our favorite stack is React/Redux, GraphQL, Rails, and React Native. We also use a wide range of other tech as needed since we face a pretty diverse set of challenges. Recent and upcoming examples: Elixir/Phoenix, .Net, C++/Qt, embedded Linux, Native iOS/Swift, Native Android/Kotlin.
Working at Blackbird is very different from larger product companies. We operate in very strategic relationships with our clients which gives us a unique opportunity every few months to deep dive into a new interesting understanding of our client's business and build ground up new apps where everyone is making major and early contributions.
We are looking for a Lead Developer with extensive experience in dev team leadership, new product development, and collaboration with business and design stakeholders. Serious consulting experience is also a huge plus. Specific skills ideally include our favorite stack (at least very interested in learning) plus (ideally) knowledge of either native iOS or Android. As a senior Blackbird team member, occasional travel to San Francisco and other locations is part of the job for project kickoffs and other critical collaboration phases or meetings. In a given month this can be anywhere from no travel up to a couple days every week or occasionally an entire week on site with a client.
I am a founder so ask me anything! If there are other aspects of what we do that interest you definitely still hit me up!
Email me at jobs@blackbird.us

NoRedInk | Director of Engineering, Full-Stack Engineers, Site Reliability Engineers, and Engineering Managers | San Francisco, CA | REMOTE Pacific Time (PST) to Central European Time (CET)
We’re an ed-tech company on a mission to help all students become strong writers! Our team may be small, but NoRedInk is used by 1 in 2 school districts in the US, and students have answered over 5 billion questions on our platform.
We’re a group of friendly people who listen to and learn from each other. We discuss past mistakes openly so we can adapt our processes to the challenges that come with progress. Puns flow freely across our San Francisco office as well as on Slack, and we have remote engineers spanning six different time zones.
Our engineering team [1] prides itself on code quality and innovation. We use the cutting-edge Elm programming language for all our new front-end code, and have been migrating legacy React code to Elm as well. Our back-end is primarily Ruby on Rails, although we are working to split off smaller services as we scale to keep up with our traffic. You can read about our experiences with these technologies on our team blog! [2]
In addition to spending work hours open-sourcing useful libraries we develop [3], we also invest financially in open source. We hired the creator of Elm, Evan Czaplicki, to develop Elm full time. [4] Evan discusses his plans for the language with the team every week, periodically pairs with other engineers on Elm, and cracks up members of the sales team with his lunchtime jokes.
We use Amazon AWS for our infrastructure and automate all of our deployments using Chef and OpsWorks. We write a lot of tests, and use Jenkins for continuous integration. Our process for new features begins with our product team and in-house visual designer, continues with a GitHub pull request from a feature branch into master, and ends with our in-house QA specialist trying to break it before it reaches production.
We’re looking for engineers who want to work on a mission that makes a difference and who are the type of collaborators that value kindness and open-mindedness, over convincing the group they’re right.
For our Director of Engineering role, we're seeking an experienced engineering leader who’s operated and scaled a high-performing team, cares about tackling complex technical challenges, and maintains a high bar for talent and engineering practices.
You can learn more about what to expect through blog posts about our interview process [5] and on-boarding experience [6].

Nylas – San Francisco, NYC or remote | Site Reliability Engineer | AWS, Ansible, Terraform | Full-time
The Nylas Cloud APIs (https://nylas.com) makes it an order of magnitude easier for companies to add email, calendar, and contacts integrations to their applications. By being at the core of business communication, scheduling, and contacts, we believe we can shape the future of how people work.
We’re looking for Site Reliability Engineers to join our team to help build and scale the infrastructure our platform runs on and the tools our developers need to get work done. Our SRE team is responsible for the infrastructure layer of our API platform—the base operating system (including security), CI/CD & deployment tools, monitoring and observability tools, and our horizontally sharded data storage layer which stores tens of terabytes of data.
At Nylas, “DevOps” is a part of our engineering culture, not a role we’re looking to fill. Our development team shares the pager with operations and makes their own deploys.
Our stack: Python, MySQL, Redis, AWS, Debian
About you:
- You have 3 - 5 years of production engineering experience
- You are located anywhere in US timezones - we have offices in San Francisco and NYC and this team contains remote members
- You value communication and empathy as much as technical prowess
- You have experience automating systems using any modern configuration management system (Chef, Ansible, Puppet)
- You have experience running services on a cloud platform (AWS, GCP, Azure)
- You can write reliable code in at least one scripting language (Python, Ruby, Perl, JavaScript etc.), though this won’t be a focus of our interview process
- You’re excited to create a modern, scalable infrastructure and automate away drudgery
We wrote about our values, benefits, perks, and published them in our open-source handbook (https://github.com/nylas/handbook). You can also find more details at: https://www.keyvalues.com/nylas
If you're interested in applying, please send me an email at karim@nylas.com!
TrueCar | Santa Monica, CA | ONSITE or REMOTE | Full-Time | https://truecar.com
TrueCar is hiring engineers to help us improve the car buying experience. We're on the verge of finishing up our replatforming initiative, and we're getting ready to re-accelerate our product development and further improve our infrastructure.
A good chunk of our engineering team, including leadership, came from CarWoo (YC S08). We value moving fast, structuring things so that we can keep moving fast, and not being afraid to do hard things. (This is sounds so obvious on HN, but it can be a hard sell sometimes when you're in the automotive industry.)
The core development frameworks we use are Rails and React. Our data stores include PostgreSQL, Redshift, Elasticsearch, and HBase. For infrastructure management, we use Terraform and Ansible. All of this runs on AWS.
Our core consumer- and dealer-facing application is a Rails application with a React frontend, backed by PostgreSQL and Redis. It's an intentionally monolithic Rails API. We also have other Rails apps for data curation, infrastructure management, and data movement to facilitate a lot of the workflows around data that add value and speed up our development.
We've also built internal tooling whenever it helps us move faster or drastically reduce the amount of manual work for our teammates. One of our tools, Spacepods, is a Rails app that churns out identical, isolated development environments (complete with data sets) so there's a mini-TrueCar that each engineer can start developing against immediately, without having to worry about breaking a shared integration environment that other developers depend on. Spacepods also powers our deployments and coordinates our CI/CD pipeline.
Openings:
- Senior Rails Engineer. You've run Rails at scale and know Ruby and Rails really, really well. "Convention over configuration" is always nice to get started, but you've had to roll up your sleeves and configure things, ranging from Ruby VM internals to caching layers to connection pooling. You'd be working on the Rails app that powers our consumer-facing experience.
- Senior Rails Engineer (Platform). You've run Rails at scale, maybe in a smaller company, and have thought to yourself at some point, "If only we had the resources to build developer tools to make our processes better and more repeatable." You'll probably have a lot of fun in this role if you like working on the tooling that gets used by other engineers and get a kick out of enabling others to be 10x/100x more productive.
- Site Reliability Engineer. You know Linux systems, networking, and/or AWS really well. Each team member has a slightly different emphasis but everyone on the team has in common is that we value reliability, observability, and performance.
- Site Reliability Engineer (Data). Measure, monitor, and understand YARN/HDFS/HBase performance in production. Design/architect deployment and verification procedures for data pipelines. One of the overarching and continuing challenges here is to take everything great that everyone loves about DevOps and CI/CD, and apply it to our data pipelines. Inherent statefulness and the size of the data make this a challenge.
- Data Warehouse Engineer. Write ETL to efficiently bring in data from various data sources, enrich it, and make it available to everyone in the company so our decisions are backed by good data. We make use of Postgres and Redshift.
Even if you're not sure you fit in any one of the above, please reach out if any of this sounds interesting to you. (If you read all the way down here, it's a good sign that we should talk!) At the end of the day, we're just looking for smart, determined, pragmatic people who love building things and solving problems. We care less about hitting all the bullet points in a job description.
Still interested, or just want to talk? Reach out to me at jgo AT truecar.com
