Saildrone | Multiple Roles | Onsite/Hybrid (US Only) | SF Bay Area (Alameda) | Full-Time | https://www.saildrone.com/

Saildrone is the world's leading operator of uncrewed surface vehicles (USVs), providing persistent in situ data from the most challenging ocean environments on Earth. Our fleet, ranging from the 23-foot Explorer to the brand-new 170-foot Spectre, is revolutionizing how we understand and secure our oceans. We work with global navies to deliver maritime domain awareness, partner with governments to map the seafloor in high-resolution, and collaborate with scientists to track climate change and hurricane intensification in real-time.

Maybe you saw that we recently unveiled Spectre, a new class of high-speed USV designed for strike and anti-submarine warfare[1]. Or perhaps you read about our partnership with Meta, where we completed the first-of-its-kind autonomous deep-water cable survey[2]. You might have also seen our ongoing mission with NOAA to map 13,000 square miles of the Mariana Islands[3].

Whether we are hucking drones into Category 4 hurricanes or scaling up the production of the world’s largest autonomous wingsails, we are looking for people who want to build the future of maritime autonomy.

We're hiring for a breadth of different positions across our organization. In software, we're looking for folks in our Perception, Platform/Frontend, and Vehicle teams. Stacks vary, but we're looking primarily for backgrounds in C++ and/or JavaScript (Node, TypeScript, React). All software positions are hybrid roles based out of our HQ in Alameda, just a quick ferry ride across the Bay from San Francisco.

In addition to software, we are also actively hiring for roles in:

* Production & Manufacturing (Composite technicians, assembly, and electronics)

* Fleet Operations (Mission managers, vehicle pilots, etc.)

* Hardware Engineering (Mechanical, electrical, and systems)

MiLaboratories | Senior Software Engineer (Biologic Discovery) | Bilbao, Spain | ONSITE | VISA | RELOCATION

MiXCR is the standard for immune analysis, cited in thousands of papers. Platforma is the OS on top — bioinformatics as self-serve, interoperable "blocks" for biologic discovery.

5 of the top 10 pharma (Moderna, Pfizer, others) run discovery with Platforma today. Goal: 10 of 10 by year-end. Hiring 4–5 engineers in 90 days. Our tools are in the methods of approved cancer immunotherapies and COVID vaccines reaching millions. The next paper citing us could be the next drug.

We merged frontend, bioinformatics, and data into one team. AI killed the silo wall. Bioinformaticians who leaned into engineering and engineers who leaned into biology now ship at multiples.

WHAT YOU'D BUILD

- Discovery pipelines: raw sequences → pre-IND leads. Antibodies, biomarkers, workflows real scientists use.

- The SDK for comp scientists: TypeScript, Tengo (a Lua-like workflow DSL — yes, you'll learn it), Rust.

- The data layer: thousands of formats reduced to one. PFrames, Parquet, DataFusion, lazy columnar everything.

WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR

- Strong TS in 100k-line monorepos (pnpm, Turbo). Polars > pandas. Node ≥22.

- Bioinformatics exposure or appetite to learn it month one. We can teach VDJ recombination; not curiosity.

- Tolerance for sparse docs and niche DSLs. "Fix the SDK, don't work around it."

OFFER

- €90–120k base, real ESOP, ARR-tied bonus — when we grow, you grow, in cash, this year.

- Bizkaia Special Impatriate Regime: ~15–20% effective tax. Beats London / Berlin / Amsterdam net.

- Visa, relocation, soft-landing. No HR, no take-homes. Direct line to engineering.

- Bilbao: ocean, mountains, Michelin, low cost of living, highest quality of life. Onsite — context-sharing needs same room.

Email: stanp@milaboratories.com (CEO). Subject "HN", include GitHub. I reply personally. Tell me about a scientific CLI you wrapped, a plugin SDK you built, or a Polars query that survived 50M rows.

Return | REMOTE | DevOps / Platform engineer | Full-time

Return (https://return.energy) is hiring a DevOps engineer who will build and run the infrastructure behind platforms that accelerate the transition to carbon-free energy. Return's main activity is building and operating industrial-size Battery Energy Storage Systems. Our operations are located in the Netherlands, Germany, Belgium, and Spain. You will be making a measurable (country-level) impact on the transition to renewable energy. Return recently raised €300M to support its growth.

While we employ over 120 people, Return's technical team is still small (15 people). Our platform automates processes in energy storage, monitoring, market optimization, sales, project management, procurement, construction, and customer service. Behind it sits a mix of EU cloud and on-site compute at our battery sites, with strict uptime and security requirements.

During the first four years of operation, we laid the foundation for our platforms, and we are ready to scale up. This is why we are looking for an experienced DevOps engineer who can own the full picture: cloud environments, self-hosted infrastructure at our BESS sites, and the operations centers in Amsterdam and Eindhoven from which we run the fleet.

Your primary focus will be to design, automate, and operate the infrastructure that our virtual battery platform runs on. That means EU-only cloud providers for application workloads, hardened on-premise setups at our sites, and the connectivity in between. You will be the person who decides what gets deployed where, and who makes sure it stays up and stays secure.

Opendate | Senior Full Stack Engineer (Ruby on Rails) | REMOTE (US only) | Full-time | https://www.opendate.io/careers/senior-full-stack-software-e...

Opendate is the operating system for live music venues — booking, ticketing, marketing, and settlement, all in one place. We replace the tangle of spreadsheets, holds-and-confirms email chains, and ticketing platforms that independent venues, promoters, and festivals have been duct-taping together for decades. Customers range from 200-cap clubs to multi-day festivals.

We're a Rails shop with real backend problems: multi-tenant ticketing at on-sale scale, financial settlements that have to reconcile to the penny, and integrations with the rest of the music industry's plumbing (Stripe, Dwolla, Seats.io, Twilio, SendGrid). If you like systems where correctness actually matters and the users are people you can go meet at a show, you'll fit in.

Stack: Rails, React/Redux, PostgreSQL, Redis, BigQuery, AWS, GCP, Docker, Terraform. Flutter on mobile. AI-first engineering culture — Cursor, Claude Code, and Copilot are part of the daily workflow, not banned from it.

100% remote within the US (no sponsorship), with optional Indianapolis or Chicago offices if you want them. Looking for 5+ years of senior full-stack experience, comfortable owning projects end-to-end and shipping to production weekly.

Apply: https://www.opendate.io/careers/senior-full-stack-software-e...

Spacelift | Remote (Europe) | Full-time | Senior Software Engineer | $80k-$110k+ (can go higher)

We're a VC-funded startup (recently raised $51M Series C) building an infrastructure orchestrator and collaborative management platform for Infrastructure-as-Code – from OpenTofu, Terraform, Terragrunt, CloudFormation, Pulumi, Kubernetes, to Ansible.

On the backend we're using 100% Go with AWS primitives. We're looking for backend developers who like doing DevOps'y stuff sometimes (because in a way it's the spirit of our company), or have experience with the cloud native ecosystem. Ideally you'd have experience working with an IaC tool, i.e. Terraform, Pulumi, Ansible, CloudFormation, Kubernetes, or SaltStack.

Overall we have a deeply technical product, trying to build something customers love to use, and have a lot of happy and satisfied customers. We promise interesting work, the ability to open source parts of the project which don't give us a business advantage, as well as healthy working hours.

If that sounds like fun to you, please apply at https://careers.spacelift.io/jobs/3006934-software-engineer-...

Y Combinator | Product Engineers on YC's own team | San Francisco | Full Time | $185K-$485K

I'm Ryan, an EM and engineer here at YC. We have a small, 18-person software team with no PMs -- engineers own everything end-to-end.

We build the software behind YC's $6B in investments: tools that help partners evaluate thousands of startups per batch, AI-powered apps that founders use every day, and platforms like Work at a Startup that connect candidates with YC companies. Engineers get unlimited AI tokens -- both for development and to build AI-powered products. What wouldn't you build to help founders + YC with that much firepower?

What makes this different from other roles:

* You'd learn more about startups here than you could possibly imagine. Every batch brings hundreds of founders building things across every industry, and you're right in the middle of it.

* We attend Demo Day, founder dinners, and work directly with partners and many of the companies. (They make great products!)

* We pay well, offer carry in the fund (like equity), and provide generous relocation support if you're not in SF yet.

Two roles open:

* Product Engineer -- full-stack, own the product lifecycle. Rails/React stack. Build tools that power how YC invests in and supports startups. It's a wide range, and sometimes it feels like labs-like work, other times it feels like a supersuit to power founders and our Partners like Garry and Jared.

* Community Builder and Software Engineer -- hybrid role. Run YC's talent-facing programs (meetups, tech talks, career expos) AND build the software that makes them scale. You need to be a great engineer and LOVE to build and support communities.

We're also exploring a Technical Chief of Staff role to work with one of our GPs -- someone who can think analytically, drive operations, and scale what they do with software.

Checkout more about the roles, and email me directly if you're excited to learn more about startups than you will anywhere else - ryan@ycombinator.com
