NOW HIRING: Software Engineer (Raspberry Pi + Hardware, Linux, Python)

Company: pi-top

Website: https://www.pi-top.com

Headquarters: London, England, United Kingdom

pi-top’s mission is to offer our customers the best experience when using Raspberry Pi; in the classroom, at home and in industry. To achieve this, we've created an ecosystem of products and services to extend and simplify the out-of-the-box experience.

Our vision is: Simple. Modular. Flexible.

Since our founding in 2014, we have built a strong global community of teachers and makers who constantly shape our content and services. However, weʼve only just got started, and this is where you come in.

Our roadmap for the next few years is ambitious, and we need a talented engineer with an agile mindset. Weʼre an open, honest and playful company made up of great people from a variety of different backgrounds and places, all united in our commitment to positively improve the way we teach, learn and live.

With the release of our latest flagship product - pi-top [4] - we are working to develop a range of physical computing project kits (starting with the motors and motion kit, being released in the next few months), as well as simplifying project-based learning by integrating with our social platform for learning challenges using our hardware, Further.

About the role

You'll be joining the pi-topOS team - a small and fast-moving dev team, which primarily develops software for the Raspberry Pi OS derivative operating system that runs on all pi-top devices. OS development has different fronts, such as:

• Writing/maintaining hardware drivers and user-facing API libraries for upcoming and already existing pi-top products
• Creating UIs for user-facing applications
• Extending functionality by researching existing software solutions and integrating them
• Developing novel solutions to problems where no existing solutions are available
• Enhancing pi-top ecosystem integrations (such as with Further) to add customer value
• Building and maintaining DevOps infrastructure (CI pipelines, etc.) to support our development

The role is one that offers an unusually broad range of technologies, and so an open mind and a strong interest in learning and contributing across a wide variety of projects and technologies is a must.

As such, we are looking for a T-Shaped developer whoʼs comfortable with coding in Python and writing shell scripts (Bash), but also able to handle some DevOps responsibilities (including cloud infrastructure and build systems). We donʼt expect you to be a guru in all of these areas, but get in touch and tell us what you can do.

You'll be involved in the full development process from conception and design to coding, testing and deployment. As a result, strong communication skills and use of English are essential. Some knowledge of electronics would be beneficial, as would experience of UX and software development within an educational setting.

This position is open to people worldwide, but you must be able to work reasonably closely with UK time and have a high level of written and spoken English.

You'll work remotely but collaboratively with our software team based in the UK and the Americas, as well as within the broader cross-disciplinary engineering team.

As part of the interview process you will be required to undertake a programming test that should not last more than 2 hours.

Requirements

• Python 3 (scripting: user-space device drivers, daemons, APIs and libraries)
• Linux shell scripting (Bash)
• Strong version control practices; familiar with Github
• Good knowledge and implementation of Open Source development practices
• Passionate about problem-solving and learning
• Happy to learn and work with new technologies as needs change with time

Desirable skills

• Familiarity with Raspberry Pi
• Familiarity with Web technologies - React + Typescript
• Communicating with hardware, e.g. GPIO, Arduino, I2C, etc.
• Familiarity with C++ (with a focus on desktop applications, using Qt and other frameworks)
• Linux system and service management (systemd)
• Debian package management (Advanced Package Tool [APT])
• Familiarity with continuous integration and build systems (e.g. Jenkins)
• Software provisioning (Ansible)
• Google Cloud
• JIRA

Benefits

• Great workplace culture - casual but hard-working
• Remote work
• 25 days holiday
• 10 days sick leave

Specifics

• Contract hourly based work or permanent (depending on location)
• Minimum 40 hours per week
• Minimum 2 hours per weekday during business hours in London, UK
• Minimum 2 hours per weekday during business hours in Santiago, Chile

NOW HIRING: Software Engineer

Company: Instantish

Website: https://www.itsinstantish.com

Headquarters: San Francisco, California, United States

What is Instantish?: Instantish is an issue tracker that is 10x easier to use, because it integrates very closely with your conversations. It's used at companies like Framer, Glossier, Microsoft, etc. The current product integrates with Slack, and we're planning to add new video and voice integrations soon.

We're looking for an energetic and focused engineer who is excited about the challenge of adapting an old concept (tracking tasks) for a totally new kind of interface (Slack).

The role you'll have: As the second engineering hire, this role has a lot of responsibility. Your job isn't just shipping code, but making the teams that use our product better and faster (as it relates to issue tracking).

Your responsibilities will include:

• Writing clear, maintainable, scalable code across the web frontend, backend, infrastructure, and integration products.
• Creating and championing engineering best practices.
• Interviewing, participating in hiring decisions, and onboarding new engineers.
• Dogfooding and giving feedback on the product. Diligent issue tracking is our not-so-secret advantage when it comes to shipping quickly and consistently.
• Talking to customers openly about their issue tracking needs. Many of our early teams love to be a part of the process.
• Shaping and maintaining a high-quality analytics strategy. Every new feature incorporates analytics, and if the numbers aren't adding up, we scrap it.

Salary: $80,000

Location: 🌏 Worldwide

How do you apply?

Email marissa@itsinstantish.com with a short note sharing the following:

• Your past experience shipping quickly and scaling products.
• Why you think issue tracking is important.
