Brooklyn Jobs - February 2018

Kadena | Software Engineer | REMOTE, ONSITE (Brooklyn, NY) | Full-Time $80k-$150k + Coin and/or Equity

Kadena is seeking Haskell engineers to join our team either in Brooklyn or remote. Kadena (http://kadena.io) is a tech-founded, post-revenue smart-contract blockchain startup founded in 2016 by Stuart Popejoy and Will Martino, two lead engineers from JP Morgan’s blockchain group. Kadena is poised to become the leading blockchain platform for businesses and enterprises by solving scalability and security concerns that impede widespread blockchain adoption. Our existing technology stack consists of our open-source smart contract language Pact and our private-chain protocol ScalableBFT, products that are already in use with Fortune-100 clients and coded entirely in Haskell. We firmly believe Haskell lends a decisive advantage through drastically enhanced productivity, excellent concurrency and parallelization support, unbeatable programming-language tooling, and sheer pleasure of coding. We’ve built a lot with just two devs, we can’t wait to see what you will add to our stack!

The ideal candidate will be able to work closely with a group but also drive projects independently. Developers are encouraged to interact at every level of product development. Initial focus is on building out our new public-chain protocol Chainweb and furthering our work in formal verification of Pact smart contracts; later projects will include operational pieces for the public platform like load balancers, monitoring, and messaging systems. Finally, partner integrations can lead to entirely new products integrating Pact smart contracts with bespoke systems. Public-chain projects are entirely open source (BSD3), and contributions to other projects are encouraged as well.

Exposure and expertise in any of the following areas is desirable:

- Network engineering

- Cryptography engineering

- Distributed Systems

- Programming language design (e.g. compilers, interpreters, development tools)

- Database Systems (RDBMS but also key-value systems)

- Software assurance/verification (Coq, SMTLIB2, QuickCheck, Jepsen, Coq, HOL)

- Industrial/production Haskell development

To apply please send a resume to hiring+hn@kadena.io.

We’re looking to hire at least one senior software engineer. Ideally, this person would have experience with Javascript/Node.js and Python.

Today, Underdog.io is a curated marketplace for talent. We connect amazing people with founders, hiring managers, and internal recruiters at top technology companies.

We’re building technology to reduce the noise of the job search and match. We started Underdog.io because we experienced the pains associated with (1) hiring while working at top startups and (2) looking for new opportunities.

Our platform is currently live in SF and NYC. We work with close to 400 awesome companies. Quality is key to our model -- we turn away one of every two companies that have tried to join the network. We've proudly bootstrapped and profitable.

As we scale, we’ll focus on building tools for candidates to organize, search, and discover new job opportunities. In our view of the future, job candidates don’t receive as much unsolicited outreach from recruiters. Job search is organized, and talented candidates have more high-quality options.

We use Python/Flask, Javascript/Node.js, PostgreSQL, Elastic Search, and AWS. We're also working on a project in Ruby/Sinatra. And we're big supporters of open source.
