Original posting

White Whale Web Services | Junior Support Engineer | REMOTE (US) | Full Time | $55-65k White Whale is a small higher-ed web, strategy, and technology company. We make, maintain, and support a CMS and Calendar product used by 100+ colleges and universities (livewhale.com and livewhalecalendar.com). We've been a small company in this space for 20 years; we're currently eight, looking to hire our ninth teammate. (Speaking personally, I enjoy working for a founder-owned company that's grown organically from contract revenue over the years, rather than the big leaps you see the startup/investor space.) Our company and this junior role are likely a bit "low-octane" compared with your average Hacker News job posting, but if any of y'all know any recent grads or early-career folk comfortable with HTML/CSS/JS and looking for a job that prioritizes work-life-balance, feel free to point them our way! This is a position grounded on our support team, but with opportunities to learn and grow into development and devops tasks. Info and how to apply: https://www.whitewhale.net/job-postings/
