New York City, NY | Full-time, Onsite | Front End and Full-stack/Product Engineers

Bond Street (http://www.bondstreet.com) is a startup focused on transforming small business lending through technology, data and design. Small business owners are the foundation for growth in our economy, and yet today’s banking system has left them behind. We’re building a better future where access to financing is simple, transparent and fair.

Recently, we raised a $10m Series A from investors like Spark Capital and Homebrew, and a $100m lending facility from Jefferies, an investment bank. We’re looking for exceptional front-end and full-stack engineers (bonus points if you have a financial services background) to join our product team, which includes Tumblr's former creative director, Peter Vidani. You’ll be responsible for helping to transform the business lending experience for over 25 million small business owners in America.

Projects our engineers work on include designing algorithms for instant risk assessment, creating intuitive and delightful user interfaces for our online loan application, and constructing dashboards for internal and customer use that resurface small business data in ways that can inform credit use and business growth. Send an email to our CTO at [email protected] if you’re interested.

Can arrange visa as needed.

My company uses pretty basic logging functionality (no third party services yet), but one thing we've done that's helpful when reading logs is adding a context id to help us track down API calls as they travel through our system - I wrote up a quick blog post about it here: https://www.cbinsights.com/blog/error-logging-context-identi...

One thing we've done that's greatly improved the effectiveness of our API logs is creating a unique context identifier string for each api call and passing it back in the response headers of a call. This allows you to copy the string from the browser and grep the logs to immediately find the call in question, and if an error occurred.

Crashed mobile safari both times I tried to open it. Anyone else experiencing this problem?

Congrats guys!!

For Mattel I looked at the space between the T and the E. One of them was really close and didn't look as nice, so I chose the other.

"While the [Minerva] courses will be conducted primarily online, students will live together in shared housing units in cities around the world. They’ll start in their home country and then rotate to different cities in later years, finishing with a capstone project in their chosen major."

I'm a huge fan of this approach. A clear advantage of university education is the network of awesome people you meet while attending. I've learned way more from working and conversing with smart people than I ever did in classes.

Excited to see how their experiment turns out.

Really awesome to see a self-taught success story like this. Love the dedication Jeff!

A side point of advice for anyone wanting to learn programming and still in college: DEFINITELY take an introductory programming class. There's endless amounts you can learn online, but learning the fundamentals through languages like C and Scheme gives you great perspective when you do pick up web code.

I really like the idea of teaching math in tandem with elementary programming. It demystifies writing code and can be very helpful in teaching important math concepts like functions, variables and graphing. At the very least, exposure to programming at an early age will get more kids interested in the subject.

Does anyone know of good examples of schools that are already doing this with something like Dr Racket?

MMOs don't seem immune from this either: http://www.dailyfinance.com/2012/08/03/activision-blizzard-t...

Seems like the gaming industry is all over the place right now.

It's interesting that Blizzard/Activision doesn't ever get labeled as a social gaming company, even though they've created three of the the best social games in the last 10 years with World of Warcraft, the Call of Duty franchise and Starcraft.

Big congrats guys! I feel assured knowing we won't be eating top ramen all summer.
