Times New Roman is the font
That all my college teachers want
But Courier New will have to do
It adds a page, or sometimes two
Hooray for fixed-width fonts!Jovio is an early-stage, funded tech startup in the real estate industry looking for full-stack software engineers to join its growing team in Austin. We are seeking to transform the traditional experience of selling your home into one that is easier, more convenient, stress-free, and puts more money in your pocket.
Our stack is Ruby on Rails, PostgreSQL, and React. Ideal candidates have some combination of 2-3 years experience in Ruby on Rails and 1-2 years experience in React and Redux (React Native a plus). This is a unique opportunity to join a startup on the ground floor and make a massive impact on the product and the team. We are really inspired by Netflix’s “Seven Aspects of our Culture”.
Our interview process begins with an initial informal phone screen, followed by a conversation with our CEO and a technical phone interview with our technical advisors.

It's an extremely risky situation to be an employee stockholder. You are at the mercy of the founders, board, and investors. Usually founders also hold common stock, so that is somewhat reassuring, since they're in the same boat as employees from that perspective. However--and not saying this happens often--there is nothing preventing founders from being given the option, say in an acquisition or financing round, to cash out while employees are stuck without liquidity.
Help.com is building the next generation of customer service software. We're looking for software engineers with a few years of work experience to join our small-but-growing team at our downtown Austin office and work together to get our initial web application into the hands of an eager market.
We are predominately in the JavaScript/Node.js ecosystem, but have developed a microservice architecture that gives us immense flexibility in our choice of languages and tools. (We've authored code in JavaScript, Java, and even Haskell!) The engineers on the team make technical decisions and have full authority and responsibility for their work. It's collaborative and challenging, and it's been very rewarding.
In addition to competitive salary, comprehensive health benefits, and equity in an early-stage startup, you will have the opportunity to make an impactful contribution to both the product and the team. You will also get to work with some multi-talented and friendly folks who come from diverse backgrounds and experiences. We're learning a lot from each other.
