Just to add on, we ask that people be US citizens and that folks move to DC for the job.

If you have any questions about the job, just post here!

I'll mention something that our team just helped launch this past week. If you're seeking asylum in the US, previously you could check the status of your case by fax, phone, or in person, but you couldn't check online. Now, you can check the status of your asylum application online: https://twitter.com/USCIS/status/1090701308636684289

Things like that might not sound like rocket science--and it isn't--but improving services that lots of people rely on is deeply meaningful work. It's non-partisan stuff and our job is to help fix public-facing services that millions of people rely on.

Lombard, Illinois | On-Site | Full- or Part-Time

This may be the red-headed stepchild of HN job postings but we're looking for high school teachers to teach English, Biology, Math, Physics, and Computer Science at a private college preparatory school.

Responsibilities would include teaching as well as overseeing extracurricular activities and developing improvements to the curriculum.

Educational background/past experience is preferred but not absolutely required. If you have a passion for teaching and have a degree or real-world experience in these fields, just write and we'll see!

We want to break with the traditional mold of academics and show our kids what real world success looks like—and what it takes to get there.

Discord | Software Engineer - Unannounced Project | San Francisco | Onsite | Fulltime

Hey HN! We're hiring engineers for a low-level systems programming/reverse engineering role. More deets here: https://discordapp.com/jobs/4200751002

Notably absent from the list of requirements is professional work experience or a college degree. If you're a self-taught programmer passionate about this kind of work, please apply! (Of course, that doesn't mean we're not looking for more senior people as well.) As someone who got their first "real" job from a Who's Hiring thread (this one, actually: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=1958374) I'm super excited to be able to offer the same kind of opportunity to people who might be having a hard time getting through resume filters due to their unusual background.

Feel free to apply through the website (I personally look at every submission), but if you have any questions don't hesitate to contact me at cmFtc2V5QGRpc2NvcmRhcHAuY29t or on Discord at cmFtc2V5IzAwMDE=. Happy to give career advice or answer any questions you might have, even if you don't think you're a good fit for the role.

We're also hiring for a bunch of other stuff, but I'm not the hiring manager for those teams. If low-level/systems programming isn't your cup of tea, check out the rest of our openings here: https://discordapp.com/jobs

Are you willing to hire non-US citizens? Reverse engineering is fun and I might be a fit (e.g. having played around with IDA Pro to reverse binaries and Spectre and Meltdown, among other things).
euphidime · 7 years ago
We are! Definitely apply if you're interested.

It seems I can't add you to talk to D: I don't have any mutual servers with you, and sending you a friend request doesn't work

euphidime · 7 years ago
Whoops! Should be fixed now. :) Please give it another shot!

Stacker | React & Python Developers | REMOTE | FULL-TIME + PART-TIME | https://stacker.app

Stacker lets you build web apps, without code, in your browser.

And not just landing pages and splash sites either. We're talking full-on, pixel-perfect, I-cant-believe-its-not-code apps that can do complex stuff: communities, marketplaces, business systems, social networks. We think there's so much out there that could be built if we just gave people the tools to make it themselves.

We're letting non-developers build apps without code. Unsurprisingly, we need a lot of code to do that. Come and help us build it!

We're hiring:

- React Developers. This ain't your grandma's React app. Help us push React to its limits as we build a frontend builder in a frontend builder https://stacker.app/jobs/react

- Python Developers. We're building a backend that flexibly connects to any data-source (DB or API) and serves it up as if it were our own https://stacker.app/jobs/python

- Fortran Developers. We don't actually use fortran, but it sounds super cool. Keep it up!

We're fully remote (currently based in UK, Switzerland, South Africa, France, Spain + China), and flexible about working arrangements.

If this sounds like the sort of problem you'd like to work on, apply now: https://stacker.app/jobs.

Sent them an inquiry last month and never heard anything. I think they're taking this privacy blackhole thing too far. Don't waste too much time on this one.
