Reaching out specifically to my network (no recruiters please), because we're looking to hire full stack engineers into Float. We're building a company based on the following immutable first principles... DESIGN LED Literally everything we do is permeated by design thinking, not “just” numbers. We trust our gut and obsess over details. We ship fast and iterate by talking directly to users. SMALL TEAMS We believe small focused teams lead to improved trust, greater ownership and an increased opportunity for innovation — small teams build and “collaborate better”. LESS FUSS We strive for simplicity — less is more. If you're looking to get very early into an exciting company and you're a senior full stack engineer based in EU/UK, we'd love to chat. https://lnkd.in/dWeMeZre

If software developer job vacancies were US cities, these places would be ghost towns: 1. Phoenix 2. Philadelphia 3. San Antonio 4. San Diego 5. Dallas 6. Austin 7. Jacksonville 8. San Jose 9. Fort Worth 10. Columbus The 5th - 15th most populated cities in America… Empty. There are over 1.7M software developer job vacancies in the US. That shortage isn’t going away anytime soon. Moving software development outside of IT with citizen developers and scaling output with low-code tools are the best ways for businesses to overcome this talent shortage. Waiting around for more developers to spring up isn’t. You can’t afford to wait.

I am going to say that this type of stuff is almost sweet revenge for the AI assisted screening that recruiters are doing. The reality is that the use of ATS is automatically eliminating many outstanding candidates, because few people know how to play the system. Recruiters are getting applicants that figured out how to play the game, and not know about #cybersecurity. So, if the result is that recruiters are now getting applicants who play the AI game themselves, it serves them right for automating away the outstanding professionals they could be getting. #cyberjobs

Sr. Full Stack Engineer, friends, I need YOUR help! I've been duped!! 🤦♀️ While sourcing for a Sr. Full Stack Engineer, I have been inundated by fake candidates. It took me a handful of virtual phone screens to find the similarities. These people all read from a script (I'm assuming the script is AI generated based on the questions I ask). What really made reality click for me is when I asked one candidate what it was like to go to XYZ college, and he started reading the "about page" for that particular college. Just as an example: "The University of Southern California is a private research university in Los Angeles, California, United States. Founded in 1880 by Robert Maclay Widney, it is the oldest private research university in California." - He read something similar to this, WORD FOR WORD. 🙇♀️ So, for the Sr. Full Stack Engineers out there who are looking for work, and who are REAL: How can I find you among the thousands of fakes? I thought about requiring a video submittal with each application, but figured that would deter good candidates. *Sigh Please comment below with your ideas, and help me out. 🙏 *And if you're a recruiting agency, NO, I'm not ready to give up and partner with a firm on this. 😉

What makes a standout software engineer? In my years working closely with tech talent, I've noticed a few traits that set top engineers apart: Curiosity: The best engineers are lifelong learners, always looking to expand their skill set and challenge themselves with new tech stacks, languages, and frameworks. Collaboration: Working in cross-functional teams, understanding user needs, and translating requirements are essential. Team players bring the magic! Adaptability: Engineers who are adaptable and comfortable in fast-paced environments thrive, whether in a startup, scale-up, or established organisation. Quality over Quantity: Thoughtful, clean, and maintainable code is worth its weight in gold. It's the backbone of long-term success in software products. Speaking of Software Engineers, I'm looking to speak with C# .NET Fullstack Developers in Derby this week! #SoftwareEngineering #TechTalent #Recruiting #Hiring #SoftwareEngineers

CJ engineering is hiring! We have a great engineering culture that cares about… • Maintainable code: We know the time we spend on writing code today will be a fraction of the time we spend maintaining it. So we make sure to write it well in the first place. • Paired programming: Pairing helps us disseminate knowledge, stay engaged and focus on the requirements. I’ve learned more at CJ than anywhere else I’ve worked. • The product department: Our relationship with the product department is first class. We respect each other’s boundaries and areas of expertise. Getting the requirements right is the most important start of a project. • Sustainable pace: We’re not a startup. We code and hire at a pace we can support for the long term. DM me if this interests you. We have openings for two senior engineers.
