Ashby | YC 19 | REMOTE | Hiring Engineering Leaders | $200k–$275k Ashby is the all-in-one recruiting platform powering hiring at the world's most innovative companies. If you cmd+f "Ashby" you'll see that we're powering many of the job postings in this thread! We’re looking to scale our engineering leadership team with technical leaders who want to raise the impact of a high-performing organization. * Not Your Traditional "Jira-Manager": Our EMs are not classic delivery coordinators who shuffle meetings or build heavy processes. Instead, you will own people, hiring bar, technical judgment, and the health of our engineering systems. * High-Autonomy Team: Because 80%+ of our engineering team is Senior–Staff+ level, our engineers already possess a high degree of ownership. Your focus is less on day-to-day task coordination and more on coaching independent owners, managing ambiguity, and raising team impact. * Technically Credible Leaders: You will stay close enough to the work to challenge assumptions, review proposals, spot maintainability issues, and jump into the code to debug alongside engineers when needed. * Organizational Advocates: Beyond your immediate team, you will act as an advocate owning the health and metrics of org-wide areas—ranging from CI/CD health and developer productivity to customer success collaboration and on-call sustainability. * 100% Remote Async Culture: We maintain an even distribution of engineers across North America and Europe, optimizing for minimal process and maximum focus. * Here's how we're thinking about AI at Ashby: https://www.ashbyhq.com/blog/engineering/ai-ashby-engineerin... * Full transparency on engineering levels + comp: https://www.ashbyhq.com/blog/engineering/leveling-and-compen... Stack: TypeScript (frontend & backend), React, GraphQL API, Node.js, Postgres, Redis. (While you won't always be shipping code, you are expected to hold a deep technical understanding of the system).

Marple | Software Engineer | Antwerp, Belgium | Full-time | Hybrid (3 days/week onsite) We build cloud software for time series data from test and measurement. Customers include F1 teams, electric aircraft makers, and hypercar companies.

Stack: Python, TypeScript, PostgreSQL, Apache Iceberg, Linux, Docker, AWS, Kubernetes. None required, but we want someone who has solved genuinely hard problems in code.

Kyra Health | Senior & Staff Product Engineers | Python / TypeScript | Remote (USA) We're building software that helps employers replace traditional group health insurance with individual plans, making healthcare less expensive and easier to navigate for everyone involved. We're doing it now because recent regulatory changes and advances in AI have made it possible. We're building at the intersection of intersection of healthcare, fintech, compliance, and AI. Implementation is getting cheaper; engineering judgment is not. We're looking for engineers who enjoy turning ambiguous problems into production systems, working across product and architecture, reviewing AI-generated code, building leverage through automation, and shipping quickly without creating a maintenance disaster. Strong Python or TypeScript experience (or equivalent), good judgment, and good communication are more important to us than checking every box. US residency required, with a preference for candidates in the Eastern Time Zone or nearby. Apply at https://engineering.kyra.health. Questions are welcome at [email protected], but applications sent by email will not be reviewed. Please apply through the website.

    Eleos Technologies (https://eleostech.com) | Remote Senior iOS Engineer | Permanently Remote (US-based applicants only) | Full time

    Eleos Technologies is a growing company building communication software for truck drivers and the back-office workers who support them. We’re looking to scale up a second product engineering team to ship more advanced driver planning tools, automate outdated workflow, and a bunch of other wins to make drivers’ lives easier and more efficient.

    We're looking for someone who has the experience to move fast on new stuff and knows how and when to pick their battles on old stuff. You'd be one of four iOS engineers at a company that's big enough to survive an economic downturn, but not so big you can't make immediate, direct impact that'll be seen and appreciated by the whole company. (We've also spent the last decade working really hard to make sure our tools, processes, and culture respect everyone's work/life balance. I'm the CTO and I don't text people on my team, and they don't text me, and that's true throughout.)

    It's a native iOS app written in a mixture of Objective-C and Swift, leaning on Swift for new features. (But that said: if you chafe at the idea of maintaining or fixing bugs in battle-tested Objective-C that's paying our salaries, please look elsewhere!) We have about 1/3rd functional/UI automated test coverage and the rest is human-powered by our QA team.

    If you're interested, please share your info via https://jobs.lever.co/eleostech/ […]
