We're a VC-funded startup building an automation platform for Infrastructure-as-Code, adding a Policy-as-Code layer above it, in order to make IaC usable in bigger companies, where you have to take care of state consistency, selective permissions, a usable git flow, etc.
We are also one of the companies behind the OpenTofu[0] initiative and now hiring engineers to the OpenTofu core team. We're looking for self-sufficient mid-to-senior software engineers, ideally with experience maintaining open-source projects. Your work will be 100% OpenTofu-related.
You can apply here[1], if that sounds interesting to you!

Storyworth is a meaningful business with a lean team and a big emphasis on work/life balance. We’re looking for experienced, full-stack engineers with strong product skills who are interested in flexible hours (20-30 hours/week) with good pay.
Storyworth helps people record their family stories and print them in beautiful hardcover books. We’re profitable with no need to fundraise. We’re a small team by choice, with low overhead and few meetings. Everyone is remote and works flexible hours, including our leadership team.
We’re hiring a couple of engineers who enjoy building products end to end, from the UI to the database query. We’re looking for optimistic, self-motivated people, who value working at the top of their craft AND having time for the other things they care about. Our stack is Python (Tornado), Mongo, Svelte and Tailwind.
We rarely have open roles, so if this sounds interesting, please read the full role description and follow the instructions to apply:
https://www.notion.so/Full-stack-product-engineer-for-Storyw...
PS: If you’re a customer, add a comment!
This is a great opportunity for a product engineer that has kids, a life, a band, or something like that.
It's not "you have a 0.01% chance of becoming a billionaire" but "you have a 100% chance of making a great living doing work that's meaningful with good people".
I also applied for this role. ;) I love that you're using Svelte!
Storyworth was very understanding and refunded me promptly, which I appreciated. Definitely seems like a great company.
MTA is an Alaskan ISP serving the southwest area of the state. The software team consists of 7 devs who support a relatively complex business enterprise environment. We're looking to add another Software Engineer and a dedicated Systems Engineer (DevOps) to our team.
As the hiring manager I want to be clear about a few things:
- This is a 70 year old enterprise telecom, not a high speed startup
- This job may interest you if you want great benefits and long-term job stability
- We have an existing environment running onsite on VMWare; the Systems role is designed to support, improve, and make adjustments to our tech stack over time
- Our core backend language is F# these days (replacing Haskell after 5+ years in production), frontend is React
- Our DevOps tooling is built around Terraform, Chef, Nomad, Vault, Concourse CI, Sensu, Prometheus, etc
- Must be authorized to work in the US

Systems Engineer: https://mta.csod.com/ux/ats/careersite/4/home/requisition/60...
If the team had been full of diligent Haskellers they'd have stuck with it, but they aren't really the type to align with a language/paradigm, and so a slow pivot into F# was decided ~2 years ago via a well documented RFC process.
I'm personally still a Haskell fan, but my hand isn't on the keyboard anymore. Not my place to make the tooling choice for them.
No one above me cares about this type of choice since we're a small backend department to internal customers. As long as the team is delivering results by the deadlines we commit to we get a lot of freedom to use whatever tooling we think makes sense.
* open source, building a dev tool. We have a public handbook (posthog.com/handbook) if you want to learn how we work, pay and more in complete detail.
* we are a real business... nearly at $10M ARR / profitability in sight / lots of capital
* we are growing through more autonomy and transparency not through process.
* we are under a ton of pipeline pressure due to how much we've grown usage (~5x per year at the moment) - we need help rewriting our ingestion for the next 2 years of scale whilst dealing with 1 million events/minute being ingested. this will be very hard, but it is the _biggest_ challenge our company faces. revenue and growth are coming easily.
* goal is to build a company worth $10s of billions, by building wide first (we are the all in one platform with lots of tools) then going upmarket way later (similar product and go to market to Atlassian). we grow entirely through word of mouth and content marketing, not from outbound sales.
* we need: a distributed systems engineer to lead our pipeline team. you'll be working alongside experienced people who've worked at places like datadog/meta/twitter in this small team (currently 4 people).
* we are also hiring: ex technical founders and front-end oriented full stack engineers!

As a potential applicant for one of your positions, I gotta say I find this a rather uninspiring company mission. On the other hand, I do appreciate the honesty.

The website can be more transparent. The careers page say "we're hiring all over the world." when in fact you're looking for people within 9 hour timezone.
Also, the about page says "We're a team of 35 from all over the world."

We're a small (23-person) team of repeat founders and seasoned operators building a usage-based revenue platform that helps SaaS companies price however they want. This is a tight-knit and senior crew — most of us have 10-25 years' experience, much of it together.
The last company we started, Second Measure (YC S15), scaled to 70+ people and tens of millions in revenue, received multiple “best places to work” awards, and was ultimately acquired by Bloomberg in a landmark deal.
We're looking for extraordinary builders to play a foundational role in a company designed for scale:
We're well-funded by top investors (led by First Round Capital), fully distributed, and known for building intentional, inclusive culture. We offer competitive global rates (SF salary + equity), equal pay by level, work flexibility (including a 4-day core schedule), and comprehensive, family-friendly benefits.I'm Mike, one of the founders— if interested, apply here (https://tryturnstile.com/about) and mention this post.
Having a decade of experience and nearly 100% match with a fullstack job description (even down to microservices/event-driven systems) and getting a rejection without even a screening call means I either presented myself poorly or there's something else they're looking for that might not be advertised (or emphasized). In either of those situations, I would appreciate even a hint so I could improve my odds in the future, because rejections are getting tiring.
Sigma360 is a VC-backed startup that builds compliance software for banks, retail, and fintech companies to better manage all kinds of risk. Things we work on include complex search, entity resolution, ML-powered NLP, graph analytics and more.
We're using Golang / Postgres / Neo4j / Elasticsearch, on a distributed architecture on AWS to process terabytes of data on billions of records.
Typically, our backend team works on building new features on top of our powerful search tools, scaling up our applications, and improving our product. We are looking for a developer to help us vastly scale up for the future as the company and product matures.
Successful candidates will have experience designing distributed backend architectures in a cloud environment, and scaling existing applications. Experience with strongly-typed languages is a must, and experience with Go itself is a big plus.

Then I get a generic rejection e-mail. As with everyone. Fair enough. But if I had to write why I wanted to work there, I want companies to start giving feedback on why they don't want to hire me. I'm a big boy, I can take feedback - I want to improve, I want to learn and maybe it'll help me get further along for the next opportunity I apply for.
Or maybe someone just doesn't have a good reason to reject me, they never read my application, something arbitrary.. and they just click the "reject" in Greenhouse, and go about their day.
Sorry, I'm just tired of applying places and getting the standard, "We've unfortunately decided not to move you forward in the hiring process.. (blah blah blah)." 2023 sucks.
