Clubhouse | San Francisco or Remote (US) | https://www.clubhouse.com/jobs

We’re building Clubhouse, a new type of social network based on voice—where people around the world come together to talk, listen, tell stories, learn and hang out together in real-time. As a team, we take pride in being small and mighty, with a relentless focus on our product and the community.

We have raised our Series A, B and C, all led by a16z. We launched in 2020 and began 2021 with about 10 people. Today we’re a team of just over 100 people. We love building and shipping fast, and creating delightful experiences for all to enjoy.

Check out our team blog (https://blog.clubhouse.com/tag/technically-speaking/) if you’d like to hear from some of the engineering team on their current projects.

Here are a few of our open roles:

• Software Engineer, Android

• Software Engineer, Security

• Software Engineer, Infrastructure

• Product Designer

• Product Manager

If you’re interested, we’d love to talk :)

Fair point! The Clubhouse room about this goes into more technical depth: https://www.clubhouse.com/room/xe72WW1G
Clubhouse is using CPython

Shameless plug here, but if you were using Hackpad for meeting notes, links, code snippets and other short work notes, you should give https://memo.ai a try!

We're building Memo, a note-taking app for technical teams. We integrate deeply with Slack which makes it super easy to save notes while in Slack, and you can write notes using both Markdown and Slack formatting (including @users, #channels and :emoji:).

We were recently on Hacker News and Product Hunt and got a ton of great feedback: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=14092279

Having been through an acquisition before, our plan is to build a sustainable business asap by charging for the product.

Totally agree! A browser extension is on our roadmap, if you're interested to get early access to it I can add you to our "beta program".
Re:A note-taking app for technical teams on Wednesday April 12, 2017 @01:40PM (#14099891)
We haven't considered that so far since our focus is on technical teams at work, but it's an interesting idea
Re:A note-taking app for technical teams on Wednesday April 12, 2017 @01:20AM (#14094987)
Yeah, I can understand that perspective, but it does require some trade-offs on the product side.

Given that we're targeting technical teams using Slack, we focused on productivity features and usability first, but our roadmap is open to change based on user feedback :)

Re:A note-taking app for technical teams on Wednesday April 12, 2017 @01:10AM (#14094934)
Sorry to hear, we are planning to add G Suite and GitHub sign-in soon.

If you'd like to get a better idea of the product you can check out the graphics in our Slack App Directory description: https://slack.com/apps/A0G9XHRE0-memo-notes-at-work

We also have more screenshots on our blog: https://blog.memo.ai/

Thanks for reporting, looking into it right now.
Re:A note-taking app for technical teams on Tuesday April 11, 2017 @10:32PM (#14094270)
For now, yes. We've noticed that quite a few Slack users have multiple teams, but most of them have just one team in which they spend 80% of their time (usually it's their work team).

We're also planning to add other team logins (G Suite & GitHub) and we also expect Slack to improve the experience for users with multiple teams.

Re:A note-taking app for technical teams on Tuesday April 11, 2017 @09:27PM (#14094053)
Good question! We're focused on different use-cases (note-taking vs. project management), as well as a narrower niche (technical teams vs. any group of people, teams, families, etc.).

We use both Trello and Memo in our and the usage is quite complementary.

Do you use Trello for note-taking at work?

Re:A note-taking app for technical teams on Tuesday April 11, 2017 @08:46PM (#14093881)
Fwiw, I don't think end-to-end encryption would be a great default for our product since it would handicap a bunch of features (like server-side search), but it could be an opt-in feature for specific notes. We do take security seriously and the plan is to do more in the future.
Re:A note-taking app for technical teams on Tuesday April 11, 2017 @08:25PM (#14093755)
You're right, we could be more transparent about future pricing. It hadn't come up until now, we'll make sure to address it.
Re:A note-taking app for technical teams on Tuesday April 11, 2017 @08:09PM (#14093649)
Should be fixed now.
Re:A note-taking app for technical teams on Tuesday April 11, 2017 @07:47PM (#14093528)
We're thinking $3-$5 per active user, but it's early days, so I can't say for sure ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

We'll also make sure early users don’t have to pay for a good chunk of time.

Re:A note-taking app for technical teams on Tuesday April 11, 2017 @07:43PM (#14093518)
We're focusing the product on "teams" (technical teams more specifically), so signing in with your "team identity" (Slack, G Suite, GitHub, etc.) helps power all the collaborative features (@-mentioning, sharing, etc.)
Re:A note-taking app for technical teams on Tuesday April 11, 2017 @07:40PM (#14093498)
Thanks for the feedback, we'll look into recording the entire flow from Slack to web app. In the meantime, I don't have a better alternative than signing up :)
Re:A note-taking app for technical teams on Tuesday April 11, 2017 @07:24PM (#14093414)
Got it. One of the differentiators of Memo is the deep Slack integration, for example with the recently launched Message Menus: https://blog.memo.ai/10x-your-slack-apps-ux-with-message-men...

We plan to offer G Suite and GitHub sign-in soon.

Sorry, English is not my first language. What would be a better way to phrase it?
Re:A note-taking app for technical teams on Tuesday April 11, 2017 @07:21PM (#14093394)
That's a good point! We used to have a video, but it was hard to maintain, but we should revisit that.

We have some different graphics in our Slack App Directory description: https://slack.com/apps/A0G9XHRE0-memo-notes-at-work - do you find these more helpful?

Re:A note-taking app for technical teams on Tuesday April 11, 2017 @07:06PM (#14093310)
Why not?
Re:A note-taking app for technical teams on Tuesday April 11, 2017 @06:31PM (#14093121)
Fair concern. We have at-rest encryption on our roadmap and our goal is build a profitable business, so maybe we'll earn your trust later on as we iterate.
