nextmv (YC W20) is changing how companies automate and optimize their operations. We provide developers with the building blocks to create and test decision models, quickly. From logistics to healthcare to finance, every company can benefit from decision engineering using optimization and simulation. We’re looking for incredibly motivated people to help!

In a little over a year we have made substantial progress. We’re already landing enterprise clients. We’ve raised over $11 million from leading VC firms including Y Combinator, Firstmark Capital, Dynamo Ventures, and 2048 VC. And we’re just getting started.

We are looking for a DevOps Engineer II who is familiar with cloud platforms, container technology and loves automation. As the first dedicated hire supporting cloud infrastructure, internal tooling and automation you will have an impact on how we operate all our systems and services. In this role you will help build and maintain cloud infrastructure for our tools and products as well as assist with customer deployments ensuring we are following best practices and industry standards. You'll directly contribute to the success of our new hosted product by serving a hybrid DevOps / SRE function. This role will participate in our on-call rotation.

Requirements

• 3+ years as a software engineer, DevOps engineer, cloud engineer, site reliability engineer or systems administrator
• Demonstrable experience administering AWS, especially VPCs, Lambda, RDS, S3 and IAM Roles & Policies
• Experience with Infrastructure as Code (IAC) using Terraform
• Excellent understanding of Docker & container technologies
• Hands on experience with configuration management tools such as Ansible
• Demonstrable understanding of modern software development practices including pair programming, peer reviews, Git-based workflows, continuous integration and delivery, and automated testing
• Comfortable with Bash and Python

Not required, but a plus:

• Experience with Go or another statically typed and compiled language
• Experience with serverless systems
• Hands on experience with Kubernetes
• Experience with software package management (RPM, APT, npm, Maven, Nexus, Artifactory, etc)
• Ability to evaluate the benefits of using in-house vs off-the-shelf solutions
• Software development experience
• Familiarity with on-call / incident response practices
• 2+ years of remote work experience

These are some of your traits:

• The idea of working in a fast-paced startup environment excites you
• You thrive on automating everything and adding structure to processes and procedures
• Working together as a team to accomplish goals is more important than working alone
• You are eager to support our customers when they have DevOps or cloud engineering questions and researching technologies to find solutions
• You value simplicity over complexity
• You embrace challenging technical work
• You thrive on discovering and documenting simple, pragmatic solutions
• You’re not afraid to speak up when you have a point of view, but can “disagree and commit” once a final decision is reached
• You just read this whole list and got more excited than concerned

How we work

We are remote first

We value amazing work and a strong work-life balance. The majority of our collaboration happens on Slack and Zoom. We get together quarterly for team offsites so we can get some facetime (Covid Pending).

Salary Transparency

We believe that financial transparency creates trust, and that teams with a high level of trust are able to execute more effectively. We view salary transparency as a way to challenge a rampant problem in our industry: the wage gap. The base salary for any two employees in the same role is the same. Performance in that role is the differentiator, not upfront negotiation.

Benefits

This is a salaried role. In addition, nextmv offers:

• Health Care Plan (Medical, Dental & Vision)
• Minimum Vacation Policy - (3 weeks minimum)
• Stock Option Plan
• 401k
• Home Office Stipend
• Parental Leave

This role (and all roles at nextmv) is remote. That being said, all employees should be able to travel to company retreats quarterly (when COVID settles down).

About nextmv

nextmv helps companies automate and optimize even the most complicated operational decisions. The nextmv platform allows any developer to quickly build, test, and deploy models that automate routing, assignment, matching and scheduling.

Our Values

Our values are aspirational and affect everything we do. At nextmv, we hope to instill core attributes and practices into our daily lives. We will work toward these goals together, and help each other along the way.

Community
We act as a group of skilled contributors with diverse backgrounds and a common mission.
We listen to each other to actively instill empathy in ourselves.
We introspect about our actions and their impacts.

Candor
We share information, from company strategy to small insights and feedback.
We collaboratively review our decisions and code using the same process.
We own our mistakes and admit our vulnerabilities.

Focus
We are ambitious and value achievement over status.
We are innately driven to innovate and improve the world.
We apply our time and skills effectively to challenging problems.

Balance
We separate our work from our self-worth to view and improve it objectively.
We don't overwork, and take regular time away to encourage creativity.
We take care of ourselves so we can give our best to our team.

Also, we love animals.

Job Description

Pulley's mission is to make it easier for anyone to start a company. We strongly believe that more startups should be created, and that founder-led companies are more successful in the long term. With Pulley’s cap table management tools, companies can better understand and optimize their equity. Starting a company is hard enough. Managing a cap table shouldn’t be. If you would like to join our mission of helping more founders start companies, let’s talk!

🙋 Why Join Pulley?

Pulley is looking for a senior backend engineer to join our team. More than anything, we seek engineers with strong coding fundamentals. We work in a highly collaborative environment.

You will have the opportunity to jump between engineering, product, customer support, design - participating in every part of the business from idea to production.

Our stack:

• Golang backend

• React and Apollo front end with GraphQL and Hasura

🔑 Key Responsibilities

• Implement best practices with Golang

• Design, build, and deploy features end to end - We ship daily. You are responsible for breaking down high level features into tasks that can ship to prod.

• Code quickly and test thoroughly - Maintain the balance between velocity and code health.

• Work on a team - Collaborate with other engineers to design and architect features. Know when to ask for help when you are stuck.

• Build improvements to performance and reliability

• Write well-documented, clean, testable code

🧩 Pulley may be a good fit if:

• You are a fast learner - You can readily learn most technologies as you go.

• You understand the business implications beyond engineering - You are not just coding cool stuff. You understand the balance between engineering, speed, and the bottom line.

• Strong work ethic and willingness to do what it takes to deliver results

🧧 Benefits & Salary

We want to build a small team of exceptional people. We will compensate you for your experience.

Our benefits including:

• Generous health insurance

• Unlimited vacations

• Commuting & food

🙌 Who we are

We are a small and well funded startup based out of downtown Mountain View. Our investors include Y Combinator, General Catalyst, Caffeinated Capital, 8vc, Elad Gil, among others. We are a team of six engineers with experience from Google, Microsoft, Docker, Pebble, and more. There are two Y Combinator alumni on the team and an engineer who has climbed Everest. Yin (founder) sold her last company to MSFT.

We started Pulley because most of us have worked at early stage startups and have found equity to be confusing. We want to help builders and creators grow and own more of their company in the long term.

Job Description

About Fuzzbuzz

We're Fuzzbuzz and we're building a fuzzing as a service platform that integrates into CI systems and the modern software testing workflow. Fuzzing is a type of automated testing that generates and runs thousands of inputs per second on your code to try and find bugs and vulnerabilities. It uses code coverage and other signals from your code to guide the tests it generates and runs. You can read more here.

Last year, we raised a $2.7M seed round from some of the best tech investors & founders, namely Y Combinator, Fuel Capital, Solomon Hykes (Docker founder), Flo Leibert (Mesosphere founder), Spencer Kimball (CockroachDB founder), Michael Stoppelman (Yelp ex-CTO).

About the Team

We're currently a team of 5 people and prefer staying small - allowing us to iterate faster and get very comfortable working with each other (the 3 founders have been roommates since first year university). That means you'll be 16% of the team - all of the work you do will be extremely critical and immediately impact users. We pride ourselves in being a very humble, but capable team - the 2 founding engineers each have 20+ years of engineering experience.

Since we are really small, we prefer having everyone working at the same location. We’re at 541 Jefferson Ave in Redwood City, CA - 10 mins from the Caltrain (everyone's currently WFH because of COVID-19. We will resume working from the office when it is safe).

Why Fuzzbuzz?

1. Define the DevOps and security standards of tomorrow

Fuzzing is seeing more widespread usage than ever before, but there is still work to be done before it sees mass adoption. We're uniquely positioned to bring fuzzing to the developer community and make software testing more effective than ever before.

2. Product-first culture with an emphasis on engineering

Working on a technical product means working with very technical people. We embrace technical challenges and take them head-on. We use tools/frameworks because they get the job done, not because they're the current flavor of the month.

3. Early stage, funded startup

By joining Fuzzbuzz at this critical early stage, as one of our first team members, you'll be shaping not only our product, but our company & engineering culture as well. We're well funded, and pay in the top 10% of companies in SF at our stage.

What You'll Be Doing

• Design, architect and build the Fuzzbuzz platform (frontend & API)
• Work with our designer to build a beautiful platform with a focus on simplicity
• Work with fuzzing team to integrate fuzzing tooling into the platform
• Work with founders to define product roadmap
• Define internal engineering standards, tooling and processes
• Work and iterate closely with users

What We're Looking For

• 2+ years experience as a full stack software engineer
• Solid understanding of Typescript
• Experience building complex SPAs in Angular or React (using TS)
• Experience with or willingness to learn Go
• Experience designing and building APIs
• Experience working with AWS
• Familiar with Linux
• Strong fundamentals in distributed systems design and development
• Obsession with users and providing real value to customers rather than working with “cool tech”
• Ability to navigate & take ownership of complex problems from design through to final implementation

Benefits

• Full health, dental & vision insurance
• Caltrain & Parking covered
• Unlimited, guilt-free PTO
• Flexible hours
• Ergonomic workstation (standing desk, Herman Miller chairs, custom monitor/laptop set up)

• We value diversity and come from all sorts of different backgrounds. Some of our teammates hail from big tech companies like Google; from financial giants like Bloomberg and MasterCard; and from previous startups like Chartbeat, Compass, and Blue Apron. We were especially proud the first time we hired a coding boot camp graduate.

Button is committed to being a welcoming and inclusive workplace for everyone, and we are intentional about making sure people feel respected, supported and connected at work—regardless of who you are or where you come from. We value and celebrate our differences and we believe being open about who we are allows us to do the best work of our lives.

Job Description

Paxos' mission is to modernize finance by mobilizing assets at the speed of the internet. Paxos is building a future where all assets--from money to commodities to securities--will be digitized and move instantaneously, 24/7. Settlement risk will cease to exist, so trillions of dollars of trapped capital can go to work in a global, frictionless economy. (Check out our Twitter feed for the latest news and information.)

Our Products include:

• Paxos Standard (PAX) is a digital dollar and the world’s first regulated crypto asset. This stablecoin is backed 1:1 by dollars and offers a liquid, digital alternative to cash that is available 24/7 for instantaneous transaction settlement around the world. Launched in September 2018, it’s the most traded USD-backed stablecoin.
• itBit is a crypto-asset exchange. We also offer related trading services including escrow, custody and OTC trading.
• Post-Trade: Based in London, our Post-Trade team works on a broad suite of products to simplify post-trade confirmations for precious metals, other commodities and FX markets. The team launched Paxos Confirmation Service in late 2018 and has already confirmed well over 100,000 trades with aggregate notional values in the hundreds of billions of dollars.

We are looking for a Senior Software Engineer to join our rapidly growing FinTech company. This is the opportunity to be part of a fast-paced, small, and flat organization responsible for developing our exciting cutting-edge products from design to production, as well as overseeing multiple projects from end-to-end. If you’re looking for an opportunity to directly see your work impact the business and our clients on a global scale, then this is a great role for you!

Who You Are:

• You are a rock solid engineer who is master of at least one domain. This could be a functional domain like Securities or Precious Metals or a technical domain like Distributed Systems, Cryptography, Databases, AWS, etc.
• You demonstrate a solid understanding of core engineering concepts. Strong understanding of Data Structures and Algorithms
• You are able to understand and articulate the design and architecture of the entire system.
• You embody our culture and values
• You feel comfortable working in a tech-driven environment with the ability to coordinate across several stakeholder groups (Engineering, Operations, Marketing, HR, etc.)

What You’ll Do:

• You will produce a work output by taking a complex user story, breaking it down into sub-tasks, and completing the sub-tasks with relative ease – own design, coding, testing all the way through deployment of each of those sub-tasks.
• You will identify and proactively tackle technical debt before it grows into something that requires significant up-front work to resolve. A rule of thumb is to start looking into root cause of issues whenever there is noise. There is no smoke without fire.
• You will strike the right balance between fixing the problem at hand and focusing on finding the root cause of problem. For example, if it’s a production issue the priority is to fix the immediate problem and collect all the data necessary for root cause analysis. In a non-production environment, the focus should be on finding the root cause and fixing it the right way to make sure the problem doesn’t occur again.
• You will be actively involved with and mentor junior engineers doing code reviews resulting in up leveling the skill sets for the entire team

Paxos is an equal opportunity employer. It does not discriminate on the basis of sex, age, color, race, religion, marital status, national origin, ancestry, sexual orientation, physical and mental disability, medical condition, genetic information, veteran status or any other basis protected by federal, state or local law.

Job Description

Trustory is a decentralized social network to validate claims that people make.

THE PROBLEM

The internet is a place where anyone can tell their stories and be heard. Yet, in being open and permissionless, the internet sacrifices trust. If you really want the truth, you have to read credible sources, cross-reference them, and remove the bias. See the problem?

OUR SOLUTION

We’re building a decentralized application on top of the internet that doesn’t sacrifice trust or convenience, to get the truth. Using game-theoretic incentives, it’s possible to create a social network that validates the truthfulness of information.

WHAT WE VALUE

We value ethical, curious, and passionate people.

We don't care about your grades. We don't care about your pedigree. We care about your intellectual tenacity. We care about how you think not what you think.

WHAT WOULD MAKE YOU A GOOD FIT

• You have a passion for writing clean, scalable and maintainable code.
• You have a strong sense for good technical architecture and design.
• You get bored easily. You like working on technically challenging problems. You automate repetitive, low-level tasks. You get excited about something you don’t know. You pursue your curiosity.
• You hate being locked down. You like having the flexibility of working how you work best. Morning or night, in or out of the office, at a desk or standing up. You like having autonomy and ownership of the product.
• You have conviction in your ideas. If you feel strongly about something, you don’t shy away from expressing your opinion. If you're in love with something, you share it with the world.
• Working with competent, driven people who are maniacal about what they’re working on is what you're seeking.

OUR TEAM

• We’ve worked at Andreesen Horowitz, Coinbase, Facebook, Goldman Sachs, Groupon, TED
• We have backing from Fred Ehrsam, Scott Belsky, Coinbase, Pantera Capital

TECH STACK

• Typescript
• React Native
• Node
• GraphQL
• Golang
