Please only post if you are actively filling a position and are committed to replying to applicants.

DuckDuckGo | Multiple Roles | Remote | Full-time | $178,500 - $242,800 USD + equity

We are looking for candidates that are excited to join us on a mission to raise the standard of trust online. All of our roles are fully-remote, except where specific locations are noted.

Most of the software engineering positions have been repeating here for years because we've been continually hiring for them, scaling our whole team to now over 300 people—many of those hires have come through Hacker News. We've been improving our hiring process over time, and we know some good candidates may have fallen through the cracks. Some people who tried in the past have had success going through it again, and we still pay for hiring projects.

Engineering Director, Backend - $242,800 USD + equity https://jobs.ashbyhq.com/duck-duck-go/3be5b69c-bacc-48fb-941...

Shepherd | ONSITE | San Francisco, CA

At Shepherd, we're pursuing the most ambitious technical vision in commercial insurance: fully autonomous underwriting. Shepherd is an AI-native commercial insurance platform transforming how high-hazard industries get covered.

The infrastructure behind the AI boom (data centers, semiconductor fabs, renewable energy assets) has to be built and insured, but traditional carriers weren't built for this speed. We built Shepherd to solve that.

We just recently announced our $42M Series B! That brings our total funding to over $60M — led by Intact Private Capital, the investment arm of one of the largest insurers in the world. Intact is not only our lead investor but also a carrier partner, a testament to the confidence the incumbent industry has in what we're building.

(Hear from our CEO here: https://www.shepherdinsurance.com/blog/behind-our-42m-series...)

(Hear from our CTO here: https://www.shepherdinsurance.com/blog/the-road-to-autonomou...)

This year, we’re growing our engineering team from 25 to 40. We’re looking for product-minded engineers to join us as we continue to scale! We’re looking for someone who thrives on ownership, drives results, and cares deeply about both technical excellence and customer impact.

We’re hiring various mid-level, senior-level and staff-level engineers. See some of our openings below:

* Full Stack - Job Posting: https://jobs.ashbyhq.com/shepherd/c4081c3d-a79b-4ac9-aa19-78...

* Backend - Job Posting: https://jobs.ashbyhq.com/shepherd/395f4b75-cf05-4581-8408-8f...

* Founding Machine Learning Engineer - Job Posting: https://jobs.ashbyhq.com/shepherd/797316b4-bdcc-4c0c-8bc2-46...

* Applied AI Engineer - Job Posting: https://jobs.ashbyhq.com/shepherd/26959124-aab2-446e-aa4d-72...

Our stack includes: Typescript, React, Next.js, GraphQL w/ Apollo, Node.js, Postgres & Redis

Apply here: https://shepherdinsurance.com/careers

* In the form, be sure to mention that you heard about this opportunity via Hacker News. If you want to read more about our team and culture, check out our blog: https://shepherdinsurance.com/blog

If you'd like to join us to celebrate our Series B on May 7th, please register here - we'd be happy to meet you! https://luma.com/b73zin1e?tk=W76nCH
