Materialize | Engineers | Marketing | NYC and North America Remote | http://materialize.io/careers

Materialize is a streaming database for real-time applications. Materialize lets you ask questions about your data, and then get low-latency, correct answers, which are kept incrementally updated as the underlying data changes.

Materialize is built on Timely Dataflow, a low-latency cyclic dataflow computational model, first introduced in the paper "Naiad: a timely dataflow system". Materialize is co-founded by Frank McSherry, the primary author of Timely Dataflow (http://timelydataflow.com) and Differential Dataflow (http://differentialdataflow.com), the two open source projects that power Materialize. Materialize itself is source-available and entirely written in Rust: https://github.com/MaterializeInc/materialize

Materialize is a team of over twenty, primarily based in New York City but also open to remote positions. We are hiring in all engineering positions (eng. manager, engineers from new grad to principal) as well as several non-engineering positions. For the full list, see http://materialize.io/careers

We are a team of significantly experienced individuals in databases and distributed systems, and looking to add more folks with that interest and/or experience to our team.

This posting says North America remote, but the site says US Remote. Can you clarify which it is?

I had some genuinely great chats with Arjun last summer, though life got busy and i didn't followup at the time. I have no doubt that its a fantastic group of colleagues to work with though.

How strict are the requirements for the marketing positions? Do you have something suitable for entry-level / recent graduate?

Should engineers from new grads to senior levels apply under Principal Engineer listing?

Not A Satellite Labs | Co-Founders (Marketing/Sales + Computer Vision) | Remote (U.S.) | https://notasatellite.com

We're building the world's first real-time map using a network of cameras aboard 60,000+ daily commercial flights. Our approach lets us gather thousands of times more data at a fraction of the operational cost of building, launching, and maintaining satellite constellations. Our competitors advertise daily revisit rates; we've demonstrated 1,500+ updates on a single coordinate in early tests using only cell phone cameras at an average resolution of 20cm.

I've been building the prototype and handling early-stage product market fit exercises as a solo founder, but now we're actively raising with the help of an excellent advisory team. I'm looking to bring on co-founders who can help run the growth machine and assist me with development of the video ingestion engine in a GTM capacity. We currently have 248 customer commitments running on a negligible burn (~$100/month for feeler ads, ~$400/mo for cloud compute) and have begun the patent filing process.

If you'd like to hear more about the business concept, current challenges, the product roadmap, or just want to chat about GIS, shoot me an email (chris@notasatellite.com) or check us out @notasatellite.

I applied for the Senior C# Developer role, unfortunately it didn't proceed as my C# experience is largely on the web side rather than the desktop side. I just want to say I felt valued throughout the process and that I felt Prakash really listened to me and spoke honestly. It was refreshing to have such an open and empathetic interaction with a company, so kudos to you folks for operating like this!
Ahmedb · 5 years ago
Same! I applied for the Senior iOS position and I liked how the whole process was transparent and straightforward.

Why does ddg care much about desktop? Aren't they an online search portal?
zerr · 5 years ago
It seems like they have a keyword-based non-tech gatekeeper. Your case reminds me about: https://www.reddit.com/r/ProgrammerHumor/comments/4k994j/if_...

United States Digital Service | Senior Product Managers, Senior Designers, Senior Software Engineers, Senior Site Reliability Engineers, and more! | Washington, DC | ONSITE required in general, but most of us are 100% REMOTE during COVID-19 | https://www.usds.gov/

We work on some of the biggest issues affecting the American people, including: streamlining immigration, helping veterans get benefits, modernizing health care, reforming hiring, improving school safety, fixing procurement, and more. Come join us in shifting government tech in the right direction -- no government experience required!

Check out our most recent impact report for examples of what you could be working on:

The work we're doing helps everyone from Veterans to medical patients. Making government services responsive, accessible, and transparent is really important right now.

Please consider applying, or just ask here if you have any additional questions!

Is USDS recruiting focused solely on tech companies? I know some strong folks looking for work, but they're coming out of being digital people in DC nonprofit world, not working at tech startups.
wycy · 5 years ago
As a current federal employee in DC, I've been long interested in working for USDS--in fact I've had a USDS jobs tab open in one of my long-lived browser windows since 2019. The one thing that has dissuaded me from applying is the "tours" aspect whereby the position is temporary. I'm not as into the Silicon Valley constant job-hopping thing. I'm more into gaining a depth of knowledge in each project I work on rather than skipping around and not feeling ownership.
toomuchtodo · 5 years ago
Tour of duty model is required due to how they hack the GS pay scale to get folks closer to technologist market rate.

They are doing meaningful, impactful work, and even if you’re adverse to the short term model, I’d highly recommend considering a conversation with them (might be possible to do a tour with USDS and then roll into a long term role at 18F @ GSA).

monatron · 5 years ago
I've always been interested in USDS but the requirement to relo to DC is always a non-starter.
Matt_Cutts · 5 years ago
If you wanted to try a short tour, now is a very good time; things are quite remote-friendly right now. Then when the COVID situation is better, you'd have better information about whether the DC trade-off is worthwhile.

I would be interested in the senior product type role.

Hey Matt! Would you be open to hiring an intern/entry level Elixir devleoper? I graduated in May and fell in love with Elixir in the last few months. I'm eager to learn and ready to work.

Ockam is up to some incredible things!

In my first week I've worked on our Rust codebase, cryptographic key generation & storage, trust architecture, and had a masterclass on modern Open Source business. This is a fantastic place to do great work.

Teller | London, UK | On site preferred but remote worldwide is OK | https://teller.io/

Teller makes banking APIs for developers that provide real time access to live, up-to-date data from their users' accounts and also allow instant payment initiation and transfers on behalf of users.

Our approach is unique in that we don't "screenscrape" online banking portals, we reverse engineer the bank's often heavily protected mobile app to discover its private API contract and implement our own API compatible clients.

Roles we are currently hiring for:

- Designer #1

Are you the kind of designer talented enough to walk on to Stripe's design team but want to have the impact of being designer #1 not #100? We would love to talk to you.

- Reverse Engineering (iOS)

We pop open some of the most well protected mobile apps in the world as a prerequisite to integrating a new bank. If you have a more sophisticated answer than "MITMProxy" for the question "How would you reverse a banking app's API contract?" please get in touch. We're working on some exciting projects like our own LLDB debugserver undetectable by state-of-the-art anti-RE tools and static decryption of Apple's FairPlay DRM. We strongly believe investing in proprietary tooling is major advantage.

- Erlang/Elixir Engineers

Our application is 100% Elixir. We really mean it. We are 100% all in on Elixir, we've already built a lot of new features on Phoenix LiveView too.

- DevRel/DevX Engineering

Do you think DevRel has jumped the shark and needs a reboot? Same here. This role involves a mixture of core engineering, being a user advocate within the company, creating great content and tooling for the best possible developer experience.

Sound interesting? Let's talk: sg@teller.io

That Reverse engineering gig looks good but my RE experience is based on WhatsApp (and more exp in android). Hijacking private APIs to build your product is pretty ballsy. Very cool.
