Jiga (YC W21) Is Hiring Their 3rd Full Stack Engineer

The Job:

Help hardware engineers ship products 3X faster!

Nowadays, the manufacturing industry is incredibly inefficient, costing the US economy billions of dollars every year, and making hardware products, like cars, planes, and medical devices that are expensive or unsafe/unusable.

In Jiga, we are working hard to fix this problem, by building a purchasing platform that talks to engineers.

You should apply if

– You love building UI components as much as building data structures and API endpoints, and there isn’t a task you can’t do.
– You are connected to the product side.
– You are not afraid to make mistakes and get your hands dirty.
– You have a get stuff done attitude.
– You love what you do.

Requirements:

– 3+ years of experience building full-stack web applications, end-to-end.
– Proven experience with React. – Proven experience with NodeJS, MongoDB, AWS S3.
– Deep love of startups and creating new products – Working blazingly fast.
– Independent and autodidact.

Would be nice to have also:
– Experience with Next.js

About Jiga

Jiga was started by our co founder, Assaf, who identified a need in the manufacturing market. After 6 years as a manufacturer himself, Assaf realized these inefficiencies had to be addressed.

We were founded in 2020, just before the first COVID lockdown. As we had to work remotely from day one, we learnt to communicate in an async way to allow everyone to focus and do what they do best, wherever they want and whenever they want.

We believe in flexible, remote work where each one of the team members has a voice and impact on the product. We don’t count hours, we take a no-nonsense approach, and we’re open to any new ideas and technology.

All religions/genders/races are encouraged to apply, we simply don’t care where you’re from as long as you do a good job and play nice.

Benefits

Fully flexible, location independent, parent-friendly remote work environment.
Internationally diverse and dynamic team with a clear vision and strategy.
Self-development budget.
Spotify/YouTube music subscription.
Generous stock options package.
Fast-paced environment with lots of room for creative freedom.
Opportunity to work on a real, painful problem together with an amazing team.

How to apply

Please send us an email to jobs@jiga.io with your CV, a short blurb and your favourite ice cream flavour (mine is cookies, obviously)

Meticulous (YC S21) is hiring #2 founding engineer in London

Hey HN, I’m Gabriel, founder of Meticulous.

Our mission is to make the world’s code safe, performant and reliable. We’re starting with a tool to catch JavaScript regressions in web applications with zero-effort from developers.

How it works: Insert a single line of JavaScript onto your site, and we record thousands of real user sessions. We then replay these sessions on new code to automatically catch bugs before they hit production. You can watch a 60-second demo at meticulous.ai.

We are a London-based YC company. Our team previously worked at Dropbox, Opendoor and Google. We just raised $4m, and are backed by some of the best founders and technical leaders in Silicon Valley, including Guillermo Rauch (founder Vercel, author next.js), Jason Warner (CTO GitHub), Scott Belsky (CPO Adobe), Calvin French-Owen (founder Segment), Jared Friedman (YC partner and former CTO of Scribd) and a bunch of other incredible folks.

Catching JavaScript regressions is just the start. There is an entire category of products to build on top of replay. This ranges from automatic UI previews to revealing the performance impact of frontend code.

We want to change the way the world develops software, and influence software approaches for decades to come.

We are hiring an onsite founding engineer to join our team of two.

You will have autonomy in building out this technology, but here are a few problems you might work on:

– Build a distributed system to concurrently replay thousands of sessions, such that a developer gets a result in seconds.

– Speed up the replay of sessions in a way that retains determinism.

– Derive algorithms to detect sessions that cover differing code paths and edge cases, and ignore sessions that are too similar.

– Help build out a team of world-class, highly collaborative, software engineers.

As founding engineer, you get to shape the company, and build the culture and technology from the ground up.

What we look for:

In a sentence: Technically brilliant, delightful to work with, combined with a self-awareness and strong desire to improve.

We’re currently only looking to bring on folks with mid-to-senior level skill sets. You should have strong web fundamentals and a deep love for software engineering. Maybe you enjoy programming books like Clean Code, Designing Data Intensive Applications, Pragmatic Programmer etc. or enjoy hacking on interesting side projects. You value transparency and candid feedback, and are driven by a strong desire to become the best engineer you can be.

What you get:

Compensation: We want outrageously talented individuals. This means we offer commensurately outrageous equity grants. The equity grant will be 2% or greater with employee-friendly terms (10 year exercise window on options). We pay £100k-£150k in base salary, along with top of line benefits and perks. You can read about our values here https://sumptuous-lungfish-609.notion.site/Meticulous-values…

Learning: You will be given the space and time to up-level yourself as an engineer in terms of conferences, reading, or whatever you think will be most valuable. We will also set you up with mentorship, if you desire it, from top engineering leaders (folks running 100-engineer organizations at the world’s leading tech companies).

If this sounds interesting, please reach out to me at gabe [at] meticulous [dot] ai with “HN” in the subject line and 2-3 sentences about what you find interesting about Meticulous and your resume/LinkedIn/GitHub.
