HN Jobs

Causes - Downtown San Francisco, CA FT position - Relocation available (Interns also welcome) At Causes, use your programming powers to help anyone change the world! Ruby on Rails + jQuery stack, 15-ish person engineering team, the usual startup perks (catering, snacks, soda, etc), gym membership reimbursement, etc. Ways we're trying to make ourselves better engineers: - Deliberate practice with our tools. If you are a vim user, we have the programmer who wrote Command-T on staff and he's a great person to learn from. - Every changeset gets pushed to Gerrit where it waits to get a +1 from our build suite (that runs in 3 minutes) and a +1 from a human reviewer. - Over the last 4 months, we've upgraded from Rails 2.1 to 3.2.3 and are using the static asset pipeline, SASS/Compass, and HAML. We're the largest site I know of on Rails 3.2. We gave a presentation on the upgrade at last weeks SF Rails meetup, slides at causes.github.com/migrating-rails-talk - Everyone is encouraged to take one hour from their day to learn about something they wouldn't otherwise (aka study hall). - Every story is scoped so that it can be completed in less than a day. We don't branch, we just work on top of master. We've found that the closer we stay to master, the less needless work we create for ourselves. Causes is a great place to better yourself and the world. We're particularly looking for a: - DEVOPS ENGINEER - FULL-STACK ENGINEER - iOS ENGINEER If interested, please check our our team page at www.causes.com/team and apply at jobs@causes.com and use "HN" in the subject line.
