  • QEMU

    Official QEMU mirror. Please see https://www.qemu.org/contribute/ for how to submit changes to QEMU. Pull Requests are ignored. Please only use release tarballs from the QEMU website.

    Qualcomm | Austin, TX, USA | Full Time | ONSITE | QEMU

    https://wd5.myworkday.com/qualcomm/d/inst/1$14180/14181$4675...

    My team is looking to hire 2 software developers to help us design and extend QEMU support [1] for the Hexagon DSP [2]. We’re looking for candidates who have experience coding in C, C++ or Rust* and who aren’t afraid of rolling up their sleeves and poring over disassembled code. This particular architecture is a bit more challenging than most, because it’s a bit unique. It’s a VLIW [3], so it’s a great opportunity to learn about an interesting architecture. Millions of Hexagon DSPs are out there, most are found in Snapdragon SoCs for Android phones and more!

    We collaborate a lot with Open Source communities like QEMU, LLVM [4], the Linux kernel [5], and more.

    The link above may require you to jump through some hoops creating an account. If you have any trouble with , you can contact me directly (email addr is in my HN user link). If you like the idea of working on stuff like open source toolchains but QEMU is not your thing, let me know. There’s other opportunities too.

    * Rust experience may serve the role well but we don’t (yet) have any product software in Rust.

  • SurveyJS

    Open-Source JSON Form Builder to Create Dynamic Forms Right in Your App. With SurveyJS form UI libraries, you can build and style forms in a fully-integrated drag & drop form builder, render them in your JS app, and store form submission data in any backend, inc. PHP, ASP.NET Core, and Node.js.

  • comm

    Comm is the working name of this open source messaging project.

    Comm | engineering | NYC onsite | https://comm.app

    We're a startup based in NYC working on a Web3 Discord alternative. Comm is crypto-native messaging based on federated keyservers.

    Our long-term goal is to build an alternative to the centralized application server model that dominates Web2. Sophisticated apps (like Discord) need a backend, but today those backends are controlled by corporations. Our solution is to replace the cloud with a network of personal, private application servers (we call them “keyservers”).

    I starting working on Comm earlier this year. I’m a programmer by trade and previously worked at FB for 5 years. We currently have 10 devs actively contributing to our codebase, including 5 here in NYC.

    We raised a small pre-seed round in February from some big names and are looking to raise our seed in the next 4 months.

    Job descriptions available here: https://comm.careers

  • gnomad-browser

    Explore gnomAD datasets on the web

    Broad Institute of MIT and Harvard | New England | Software Engineer | REMOTE/HYBRID

    Our team is focused on building the tools necessary to visualize and interpret massive data sets of human genetic variation and functional genomic information. We have developed gnomAD (https://gnomad.broadinstitute.org), the world’s largest public reference dataset of human exomes and genomes. gnomAD has become one of the most widely used resources in the field, and is now the default reference database for virtually all clinical interpretation pipelines, as well as a standard analysis resource for a wide variety of genetic and biological studies. We estimate gnomAD has contributed to the clinical diagnosis of over 2 million patients with genetic disorders.

    Your role will be to maintain the gnomAD browser, our open source web application for exploring gnomAD and related datasets, and develop new scientific functionality as we continue to grow to over 1 million human samples. You will work with a team of software engineers, computational biologists and clinical and research users to develop new features and visualizations that incorporate user feedback. Software engineering skills and an interest in user interface design and data visualization are key. Basic familiarity with genomics and DNA sequencing data is preferred, but not required. Most importantly, the ideal candidate will have enthusiasm for playing a critical role in a team-oriented project and learning new domains.

  • orchest

    Build data pipelines, the easy way 🛠️

    Orchest | Front-end Engineer | The Netherlands | Full-Time | Remote (UTC +-3)

    Orchest lets data scientists focus on what matters. It’s our mission to free data science teams from infrastructure tasks and complexity. We make the data platform team obsolete by automating the plumbing and making it easy to work in a cloud native way as a data scientist.

    Today, we’re focused on drastically simplifying how batch data science pipelines are built by focusing on intuitive abstractions, seamless integration of the canonical open source data science stack (e.g. Jupyter notebook support), and single-click productionization.

    To that end we’re looking for a Front-end/TypeScript Engineer that will help us develop the user facing parts. Are you someone that gets excited thinking about combining a clean React based component hierarchy, TypeScript, Web Workers, and CRDT sync to create a perfect user experience?

    We raised ($4M+) from top investors like Gradient Ventures (Google) and Basis Set Ventures (SF-based AI & ML fund). In addition, we're a fully remote company (team of 8) with async communication to allow everyone to get into flow state and do their best work.

    More details about our open source project can be found here: https://github.com/orchest/orchest or check out our AngelList listing https://angel.co/company/orchest/jobs/1690887-front-end-engi...

  • cli

    Official Command Line Interface for the IPinfo API (IP geolocation and other types of IP data) (by ipinfo)

    IPinfo.io | Various Roles | Remote (Anywhere) | Fulltime / Contract | https://ipinfo.io & https://host.io

    IPinfo is a leading provider of IP address data. Our API handles almost 100 billion requests a month, and we also license our data for use in many products and services you might have used. We started as a side project back in 2013, offering a free geolocation API, and we've since bootstrapped ourselves to a profitable business with a global team of 20, and grown our data offerings to include geolocation, IP to company, carrier detection, and VPN detection. Our customers include T-Mobile, Nike, DataDog, DemandBase, Clearbit and many more.

    We're looking for exceptional and ambitious people to join our team - we've got various roles we're looking to hire for:

    - Senior software engineers - generalist engineer to help improve our data pipelines, ship new APIs and data sets, work on our SDKs and product integrations and more (ideally strong golang, bash, sql and node.js experience) https://ipinfo.bamboohr.com/jobs/view.php?id=21&source=hn

    - Senior Engineer / lead - Data Team - help build and maintain our data pipelines, including IP geolocation, VPN detection, build out new data sets and insights etc. Help roadmap and plan the data team activities. https://ipinfo.bamboohr.com/jobs/view.php?id=21&source=aWQ9M...

    - Jr Engineer / Data Analyst - Data Team - help maintain and debug our data pipelines, investigate and surface issues, pull custom data samples for customers, and help support the rest of the data team - https://ipinfo.bamboohr.com/jobs/view.php?id=28&source=aWQ9M...

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.

  • Plausible Analytics

    Simple, open source, lightweight (< 1 KB) and privacy-friendly web analytics alternative to Google Analytics.

    * etc

    It's the most fun project I've ever worked on and I'm not just saying that because I started it. Our product is open source, we have great customers with household names and it feels great to be doing something about the abysmal state of online privacy. We have many self-hosters and get a lot of love and good vibes from the community.

    The company is fully bootstrapped and independent from any investors. This means we can grow at a sustainable pace without having to satisfy external growth targets and timelines. We can take time to get things right and ship stuff that we're really proud of.

    We are currently just 3 people which means there's little bureaucracy and politics like in larger companies. Things go smooth, you won't be sitting in meetings all day. It's a pure engineering role with ample time and space to actually focus on doing good work. There are pros and cons to how we work but we really enjoy working in a small remote team with tons of autonomy. This is how we plan to keep it.

  • PostHog

    🦔 PostHog provides open-source product analytics, session recording, feature flagging and A/B testing that you can self-host.

    There are two key roles open at the moment:

    * Kubernetes SRE - We are looking for someone to help us refine how we deploy our stack to Kubernetes across multiple cloud providers. Ideally you would be someone who loves a performance challenge and has experience operating high performance stateful workloads on k8s.

    * Tech Lead Manager (TLM) - If you are are someone who loves working with a small tight nit group of people, helping them grow professionally and personally while also wanting to stay sharp as an IC, this is the role for you. We are looking for someone who can lead our core analytics team technically, as well as some light management duties to keep the team sharp and focussed. Technically you should be very comfortable with reading and writing complex SQL queries that are designed to hit TBs to PBs of data. You should also feel totally at home working with the frontend and backend of a web service. The team is a full stack team - but the crux of the work is in writing efficient queries.

    * Full Stack Eng - If you are someone who loves wearing multiple hats with a dynamic team dealing with huge amounts of streaming data with the goal of making more of that data actionable and insightful we are looking for you :)

    What it's like:

    * Fast and direct! * Focus is on written and asynchronous communication. * Autonomous. You choose your quest. Small team structure to enable this. * Transparent - almost all our work is open source, public handbook, public compensation, internally shared board meetings and investment updates before they happen.
