strzalek··on Ask HN: Who is hiring? (August 2022)
Column.com | REMOTE or Onsite | Full-time

Column is the developer infrastructure bank. The only nationally chartered bank built to enable developers and builders to create new financial products.

We're looking for engineers to help us build integration with ACH, Wire, Swift and Checks systems which we expose to the developers via API.

We're a lean and experienced team. We like our current size of six engineers. For an excellent candidate we're open to hiring one or two more. We write mostly Go, but experience there isn't that important....it's a pretty easy language to learn. We generally prefer candidates with at least five years of production coding experience at a high caliber and high velocity team. We'll require a take-home that does take time, so if that's a non-starter for you we're sorry. We find it the best way for you to show your skills, without being overly burdensome on the team!

strzalek··on Hound: A service that comments on Ruby style violations in GitHub pull requests
I hate those github bots. Just use rubocop and run it in your CI.

strzalek··on Introducing Database.Com from Salesforce
Sorry, but design looks so ugly and unproffesional. It's not encouraging to try the service.
