Working Families Party I'm hiring a data engineer at the Working Families Party to help us crush fascism and build working class power through this November and beyond! [Full time data engineer](https://jobs.lever.co/workingfamilies/1764bd14-8f41-43d5-8c50-d276b3c8fd66), 77k-126k dependent on geography and experience, details in the post. Mostly python and big query. We included a full wishlist of qualifications but no need to meet them all! ## Startups Add yourself here at the top 2025-12-29 My favorite question to ask engineers is "what makes software hard?" A team of thousands of employees keeps google docs running yet a single talented, motivated engineer can re-make 10% of google docs in a month. Why is it so hard for Google? Ultimately—software has very few hard \*technical\* problems left. The largest issue we face now is one of \*coordination\*. We are \*awful\* at coordinating what software gets built, \*awful\* at communicating how that software works once it is, and \*awful\* at composing that software into our larger digital landscape. We've solved this coordination problem in other domains before - we don't need to coordinate our economies - money acts as our tool for coordination. We don't need to coordinate our information - language acts as our tool for coordination. But 'Money' and 'Language' are terrible tools for coordinating computers. The tension in this missing coordination has been building up for decades. The pressure is at a breaking point, pulled even tighter by the force of AI and LLMs - it's begging to be solved. So let's solve it. Get in touch! https://rose.hall.ly \| rose@hall.ly 2024-04-13 The San Francisco Compute Company [sfcompute.com](https://sfcompute.com/) Hiring: Principal Full Stack Engineer About: We make supercomputers. We're in San Francisco. Unlike other providers, who force you into year-long or three-year-long deals, we almost exclusively sell short-term bursts on very-large supercomputers for very-big training runs. If you want 512 H100s, it would normally cost you in the \$12m range, because you gotta buy it out for the whole year. If a provider can sell someone the whole year, then they'll just do that and print money. We'll sell it to you for two weeks (around \$500k). Company Lore: Originally, SF Compute started as Alex Gajewski and Evan Conrad trying to make a generative music model. We flew to LA, Alex dyed his hair (it was great), and played around with some different architectures. We liked this auto-regressive VAE concept. When we went to scale up our model, we reached out to every provider at the time, who informed us that the minimum purchase was a year, and would cost at least \$1m. We did not have \$1m. 2023-12-10 Looking for a technical co-founder Spence.burleigh@gmail.com Probably someone with a lot of experience working with data / web scraping and an interest in e-commerce / hard tech. Ideally a second time founder 22 - 30 who has managed teams and wants to be in person in San Francisco. I've spent a lot of time thinking about what to do next and have gotten really excited about building infrastructure to support deep-tech companies (like the one I used to run). I talked to ~100 companies and procurement was a common issue. My current idea is to make purchasing commodity(ish) industrial items like lumber and wire much easier. Specifically, a search tool that uses AI to help determine what your needs are (finished or unfinished lumber? wire clad in aluminum or steel?) and then recommends what to purchase across all the possible brands and vendors. You can buy in one click and subscribe to the things you predictably need. The goal is to augment / replace procurement departments. There are some pretty interesting network effect elements (demand aggregation) along with the potential to eventually create a futures market for industrial goods. The guided search could also be generalized for consumers (I tried to buy a cooking wok last night and it took 20+ minutes 🙄). It's still very early stage and I'm spending most of my time talking to customers and looking for a technical co-founder -- probably someone with a lot of experience working with data / web scraping and an interest in e-commerce / hard tech. Ideally a second time founder 22 - 30 who has managed teams and wants to be in person in San Francisco. Very open to breaking any one or two of these rules :) 2023-12-10 Ideaflow.io - <Jacob+hiringVIP@ideaflow.io> Full Stack Engineer Who has significant frontend experience and is up to the challenge of writing something as complex and high performance as an IDE in JavaScript. iOS Engineer Who wants to build the best-ever, low-friction personal notes app. <https://www.ideaflow.io/careers> How can we solve problems too big to fit in any individual's head? Ray Kurzweil projects that, by 2045, humanity will be hooked up to a "shared neocortex in the cloud" by brain-computer interfaces. We will leave the brain-computer interfaces to Elon Musk<sup><a href="#cmnt1" id="cmnt_ref1">[a]</a></sup>, but we believe it’s possible to build that "shared brain" now, and that it might look different than many imagine. We're starting by creating a notebook that augments the user's intelligence. We want to create a future where nobody feels alone with their ideas, where intellectual soulmates find each other, where superconnectors are empowered. We see our software as critical to creating the frame for humans and machines to work together to solve the world's most important problems. With a raise of \$10 million and the backing of prominent thought-leaders in the field, we are ready to take on these challenges. We are looking for fearlessly creative individuals who can fall in love with personal information management systems with us – which we see as integral to the destiny of the Web. 2023-05-30 Hazel - <henry@meethazel.ai> TL;DR: Interested in using Gen AI to boost the real, tangible world?

[Join us!](https://docs.google.com/document/d/16x7LYgsOCUmWJRt9E_Oj1bb0dVbzIWKVKG-61UEqpyg/edit?usp=sharing) :) The process of buying and selling homes is super antiquated.

We’re growing super quick, and we’re hiring for SWE interns. [Find out more here](https://docs.google.com/document/d/16x7LYgsOCUmWJRt9E_Oj1bb0dVbzIWKVKG-61UEqpyg/edit?usp=sharing)! RoadFlex - <dennis@roadflex.com> The trucking and logistics industry provides the backbone of the US economy. But the payments infrastructure on which it runs is broken. For the hard-working men and women of this sector, the existing suite of payment tools is outdated, difficult to use, prone to fraud, and saddled with shady fee structures. The incumbent players in this space often overlook the economic and practical needs of this user base. We’re changing that RoadFlex is building Stripe for Transportation — modernizing the payments infrastructure for trucking and logistics. Supply chains rely on the timely movement of capital to function efficiently. Our end game is a world in which that capital movement occurs fairly, smoothly, and without delay. As we pursue that end game, we aim to center our customers in every way — offering them world-class customer experience and building products that work with and around the unique constraints of their daily lives. We build for fleet managers in the office and drivers on the road. We strive for products that are efficient, satisfying, and useful. Our customers enable our modern economy — they deserve better.

We believe that cheap, and flexible monitoring of infrastructure can both improve the performance and accountability of existing systems and better guide the design of new construction. We value scientific integrity, transparency, and impact.

We’ve built a small piece of that vision so far: a human-AI hybrid Web platform for teams to collaboratively create and visualize large knowledge graphs, which is currently used by companies including Silicon Valley Bank and Bainbridge Capital. This is the first step in a larger project to realize Vannevar Bush’s original vision for the [Memex](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Memex) and my research advisor Tim Berners-Lee’s original vision for the [Web](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Giant_Global_Graph): to create “shared brains for organizations” linked to a personal notes/knowledge base platform. We’ve raised \$1.8M and are looking for a great full stack web developer who wants to become our lead engineer, feel like another co-founder, and amplify human intelligence forever. Sending a larger discussion soon. Also hiring a mobile engineer. <jacob@ideapad.io> Palo Alto area and SF <!-- --> - Cobalt Robotics \<still kind of in stealth mode\>.
