Spacelift | Remote | Europe | Full-time | Senior Software Engineer

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.

On the backend we’re using 100% Go with AWS primitives. We’re looking for backend developers who like doing DevOps’y stuff sometimes (because in a way it’s the spirit of our company), or have experience with the cloud native ecosystem. Ideally you’d have experience working with an IaC tool, i.e. Terraform, Pulumi, Ansible, CloudFormation, Kubernetes, or SaltStack.

Overall we have a deeply technical product, trying to build something customers love to use, and already have a lot of happy and satisfied customers. We promise interesting work, the ability to open source parts of the project which don’t give us a business advantage, as well as healthy working hours. We’ve also got investment days on Fridays, when you can work on anything you want, as long as it could possibly benefit Spacelift in some way.

Right now we’re mostly looking for engineers for our Growth team, which focuses on accelerating the adoption of Spacelift and reducing the time necessary for new users to get into our platform. The team follows data-driven decisions to track the progress and works closely with business partners and other departments to align product vision.

If that sounds like fun to you, please apply at https://spacelift.teamtailor.com/jobs/3006934-software-engin…

You can find out more about the product we’re building at https://spacelift.io and also see our engineering blog for a few technical blog posts of ours: https://spacelift.io/blog/engineering

PS: Fear not, no whiteboarding!

Meticulous (YC S21) Is Hiring #3 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 engineering 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 seeding a London office and hiring an onsite (few days per week) founding engineer to join our team of four.

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 also want to make sure everyone is highly supportive of each other; we win as a team.

We’re currently only looking to bring on folks with senior level skill sets and 5+ years of industry experience. 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 motivated by a strong desire to become the best engineer you can be.

You can read about our values here https://sumptuous-lungfish-609.notion.site/Meticulous-values…

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.

New York Times' Paul Krugman insists 'Bidenomics' have benefited American workers with 'huge employment boom'

Liberal New York Times columnist Paul Krugman continued to defend President Biden at every turn, arguing on Monday that “Bidenomics” has benefited American workers. 

Krugman, who was mocked last month for claiming the economy is experiencing a “Biden boom” despite record 40-year-high inflation, penned a column published Monday headlined, “Has Bidenomics Been Good for Workers?” 

“President Biden has presided over a huge employment boom that, according to Friday’s employment report, is still in progress. That’s simply a fact, although stating it (like pointing out that we aren’t in a recession at the moment) guarantees that I will receive a truckload of hate mail,” he wrote. “By Biden’s second Labor Day, the U.S. economy had added substantially more jobs on his watch than it did in the Trump administration’s first 37 months — that is, before Covid-19 put the economy into a temporary coma.”

NEW YORK TIMES’ PAUL KRUGMAN MOCKED FOR CLAIMING THE ECONOMY IS EXPERIENCING A ‘BIDEN BOOM’

Krugman then admitted “many of the job gains under Biden probably reflected a natural recovery from lockdowns, and in general it’s easier to add many jobs when you start, as Biden did, from a position of depressed employment,” but quickly reverted to fawning over the president.

“On the other hand, employment has recovered faster than almost anyone expected,” Krugman wrote before noting that inflation is an issue but “Bidenomics has been good for American workers, whether they know it or not.”

Krugman has denied that America is in a recession, despite the GDP experiencing two consecutive quarters of negative growth, the technical definition of a recession. The liberal columnist – who also recently defended Biden’s school loan handout – believes “two big conceptual issues” are essential when evaluating the effects of rising employment on Americans.

NYT’S PAUL KRUGMAN SKEWERED FOR COMPLAINING THE SUPREME COURT IS ‘ON THE SIDE OF CIVILIZATIONAL COLLAPSE’

“First, do we look at the wages of only fully employed workers, or do we consider the gains to Americans who would have been unemployed or working reduced hours but for the Biden boom? Second,” he continued. “How much of the inflation the U.S. economy has suffered since Biden took office do we attribute to the boom, as opposed to things that would have happened whatever his policies had been?”

The liberal Times columnist answered his own questions by declaring, “If we include wage gains due to the rising share of Americans with jobs and the rising number of hours for those employed, the Biden boom has, unambiguously, been good for workers’ incomes… the biggest gains went to the lowest-paid workers. So the Biden boom didn’t just increase overall incomes; it reduced inequality.”

Krugman also dismissed workers who already had jobs when Biden took office losing purchasing power because of inflation because the issues “have a lot to do with global forces and little, if anything, to do with U.S. policy.” 

NEW YORK TIMES COLUMN SUGGESTS DEMS SAVED ‘CIVILIZATION’ WITH CLIMATE PROVISIONS IN SPENDING BILL 

“So, yes, the Biden boom has been good for workers. More Americans — a lot more Americans — got jobs, and while those who were already employed suffered a decline in real wages, that decline reflected events in global food and energy markets, not U.S. policy,” he wrote. 

Krugman concluded the glowing piece by noting that an extended period of high unemployment could erase whatever gains American labor had made during the Biden administration but reminded readers that he approves of the president’s to-date economic plan. 

“So far, Bidenomics has indeed helped workers,” he wrote.
