Location: Remote, US and Canada
Description: Tailscale is the secure network that just works. A peer to peer VPN built on WireGuard that punches through firewalls and helps teams and professionals secure access to the things most important to them. Lots of backend work, VPN engine stuff and linker crimes.

Apply! It’s easily the best place I’ve ever worked.
I feel like my

experience is… near zero, but I’ll think about it.Company: Signal
Company site: https://signal.org
Position(s): Engineering: iOS (engineers and tech lead), Android, Desktop, Server/Infra, Calling & Core Libraries. Product Designers too!
Location: 100% remote (within US timezones)
Description: Signal is a 501c3 nonprofit organization developing open source privacy technology that protects free expression and enables secure global communication. We’re a fully distributed/remote, small team looking to grow slightly (currently 30 people total/20 engineers). If you care about code quality as much as you care about user privacy, we’d love to talk with you.
Tech stack: Swift/Objective-C, Java/Kotlin, TypeScript, Java, Rust. We publish all our codebases @ https://github.com/signalapp, check ’em out!
Compensation: Competitive with Big Tech, without selling your soul or compromising your ethics. Full 401k match, health/vision/dental, parental leave, and self-managed time off.
Contact: workwithus at signal dot org (several of us staff that email alias). You can also DM me on here, or email evanhahn at signal dot org.
Company: GitHub
Company site: https://github.com
Position(s): Pretty much every department, but for me, it would be great to get a strong platform PM or director of product for developer experience to work alongside!
Location: Most positions are remote; we can hire people in all 50 US states, Alberta/BC/Ontario/Quebec, Austria, Denmark, Germany, Ireland, Netherlands, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, UK, Australia, India, Japan, and New Zealand
Description: Millions of developers and companies use GitHub to build, ship, and maintain their software. The GitHub Infrastructure team operates and maintains our data centers, the heart of the GitHub. With over 65 million users, hundreds of thousands of registered apps and billions of API calls every day, GitHub provides the core infrastructure that binds the open source community together. (I cherry-picked the Platform PM description; hopefully most folks here know what else GitHub does!)
Tech stack: We have a blend of Ruby, Go, C#, C, and Rust powering various things. Here on the platform / infrastructure teams, it leans more to Go/C/Rust.
Compensation: Salary and equity vary by country and position. Vacation is considered “flexible”, with most managers encouraging 4+ weeks. 5 months of paid family leave (except in countries where more is mandated), charitable donation matching, 401k matching, and (in the US) a generous health plan.
Contact: Apply through the website
I’m not applying, but why only those four provinces?
I assume for tax reasons. Having employees in a given jurisdiction requires the company honor the local payroll taxes, which I suspect isn’t free.
*Microsoft. You’re not fooling anyone :P
I spent 13 years working at Microsoft in 3 different divisions. I moved to GitHub 2 years ago. We do get some of the perks of being Microsoft-adjacent (discount Xbox Live and M365 subscriptions, mostly), but it’s definitely not Microsoft.
for now…
I tried applied through your site several times last year and never got an interview. I would recommend anyone interested in Github to go through referral instead.
This is good advice. We get hundreds to thousands of applications to most engineering/product jobs, and it’s easy to miss a qualified candidate or two along the way. Referrals get you reliably past the initial filter. (In my experience, everything I’ve said is true at all “household name” tech companies.)
Company: AdaCore
Company site: https://www.adacore.com
Position(s): GNU Toolchain Developper, Compiler Engineer, Rust Certification Engineer, Web Designer, DevSecOps developer, QA Release Engineer, Simulink Certification Engineer, IT Assets Project Manager.
Location: Depends on the position! Some are remote, some are on-site. AdaCore has offices in New York, Paris, Toulouse, Grenobles, Vannes, Bristol, Tallinn and probably a few other places I can’t remember right now.
Description: AdaCore is the main driving force behind GNAT, the Ada compiler originally based on GCC. We’ve also built a lot of other tools revolving around the Ada ecosystem: IDEs, static analyzers, formal proof tooling… What we build is open source and we make money selling support, trainings, certification etc.
Tech stack: There’s Ada, of course, but not necessarily so - it’s fine to apply even if you don’t know the language. Depending on the position you might also have to work with C, C++, JavaScript, Ocaml, Python, Rust, Simulink…
Compensation: Again, depends on the position. AdaCore seems to match the market from what I can tell.
Contact: Please go through the website :)
Oh man some of these are tempting. On the one hand, I love making language tools, compilers, and anything with Rust… On the other hand, my limited experience with formal certification stuff is that it’s all bureaucracy…
Yeah, I think I agree, the Rust certification position is probably more about certification than about Rust itself. Possibly not be a great fit for people who enjoy programmnig more than writing reports. However, the GNU Toolchain Dev and Compiler Engineer positions are mostly about programming and is a great fit for nerds of our kind (I know because I used to occupy the Compiler Engineer position :) ).

Compensation: different per position, see Contact for details

Would it be possible to link directly to the jobs part of the site? The English front page doesn’t mention “career” or “jobs” anywhere, and is over four screenfuls.
unfortunately, selecting “IT” and “english”, is not linkable (or I didn’t find out how), but the “Contact” link is the jobs part?
Found the jobs site three links away from the contact page.
I’ve actually applied there at the beginning of Februrary, but haven’t received any news since. Is this to be expected? The position in which I’m interested appears to be still open.

Company: FreeAgent
Company site: https://www.freeagent.com
Position(s): Senior Front-End Engineer, Cloud Operations Engineer, Senior Cloud Operations Engineer, Senior Developer Platform Engineer
Location: Edinburgh (Onsite) or Remote in UK
Description: FreeAgent makes accounting software for small businesses. We design for companies with 10 or fewer employees. My pitch is that people generally don’t generally run their own business to do their own business admin, they’re either pursuing an interest or simply making a living. So we want to give these folks the tools to manage and feel in control of their finances. This lets them get on with the rest of their lives.
Tech stack: Our main app is a constantly updated 15 year old Ruby on Rails monolith, with the variety of front end tools that you’d imagine. Everything new is written in Hotwire, and we’re moving things over as and when it makes sense. For the Cloud Operations stuff, we’re an AWS shop and rely on Terraform for code as infrastructure. We’ve recently decommissioned a long running Jenkins instance for our CI/CD tooling and are all in on Github and Github actions for that.
Compensation: Varies per level and job - rather than typing it out here, the salary range is listed on each job page. Holidays starts at 33 days per year (which includes UK bank holidays), increasing year on year up to 43 days. More details on our benefits page.
Contact: https://www.freeagent.com/careers/ or send me a DM and I can link you to one of our talent team.
