I'm getting back into web development after a long hiatus and wanted to build something relatively straightforward. Was pleasantly surprised to see less JavaScript fatigue than before. Stuck with vanilla Rails though (ViewComponent is my poor man's version of React) and Tailwind for CSS which gets the job done, no need for a SPA.
Then started playing around with AI/ML for automatic categorization of jobs into departments which has been a fun and educational exercise.
Will implement the ability for companies to post jobs soon!
Parallel | Multiple Positions | Hong Kong (Engineering is Remote!) | Full Time | Visa Sponsorship
Parallel Capital is an algorithmic, high frequency proprietary trading firm that specializes in providing liquidity within the cryptocurrency markets.
We’re a major though under-the-radar player in the cryptocurrency market making ecosystem, founded by industry veterans from both Wall Street and Silicon Valley in a melding of finance and tech. With over 35+ years of combined experience, we profitably trade tens of billions per month, outperforming much larger and better funded teams, and we are expanding rapidly.
To put this in context: we trade 1% of the entire crypto industry's volume daily. If we were a retail exchange (think Coinbase or Binance), we would be ranked #5 on any given day in total trading volume and trade more than Gemini and Bittrex combined.
We value constant learning, continuous improvement, fast iteration, and relentless resourcefulness. We focus on results, not effort. We embrace the sharing of ideas with an open mind and engage in healthy debate to evaluate them from first principles.
We're a small team of 8 looking to expand with the following impactful remote positions:
To apply, send your Github/Gitlab/sample projects, cover letter, and resume to careers@parallelcapital.co.
Non-standard applicants/applications are welcome; resumes are not strictly needed since the goal is to show off who you are and what you've done already that makes you a good fit!
The compilation of exchange specific addresses is a long and tedious process, plus we hypothesize that exchanges would rather prefer to keep their addresses private, so we're not releasing that information though.
However, one of our Signals products reads from the Ethereum blockchain in real-time and notifies whenever there are abnormal movements to/from exchanges.
Unfortunately we're aware of the "pump and dump" association with signals - any suggestions for front footing that negative connotation and showing users that this is in fact different?
One way we've thought about is to create a Signals Library that basically explains each signal we provide and details the behind what it represents, a rough overview of what triggers it, and the historical performance if you traded off of it.
Any other suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
CoinFi is a cryptocurrency media and software platform currently with 15 team members who are primarily based in Hong Kong. Engineering and community management team members are all remote and scattered across the world and timezones.
We’re well funded with $15M USD and are looking to scale the team, particularly on the product side.
Our platform is open source and the code is available at https://github.com/coinfi so your contributions will be available for the entire world to see.
We’re solving very interesting challenges by providing tools that are prevalent in the equities space but missing in the cryptocurrency space, such as aggregated newsfeeds, stock/coin screeners, portfolio management systems, and automated trading algorithms.
We’re also tackling some super interesting data engineering / data science problems including ingest of trade and order book data per exchange, ICO/coin data, and Ethereum blockchain data.

I run a similar site to Glassdoor that doesn't require you to write a review to read them. Understandably, I have fewer reviews, but if you're interested feel free to take a look!
The site is awesome, I did basically nostromo's trick with my colleagues in the past and found that I had the highest salary by a reasonable margin but was the newest hire. Ah, the joys of negotiation... A webapp would be great for more distributed teams though!
Me and a couple of buddies made a basic version of Glassdoor back in college before they existed. It's called FuelForHire but it never took off because we never marketed it. I'm promoting it now in hopes it helps people figure out their salary, and on top of that it contains reviews of the hiring process, compensation package, and work environment to give the numbers some context. We DO NOT require you to write a review in order to view one like Glassdoor does, so stop by and take a look, although we'd love it if you did write a review!
It's probably better suited for people to talk about their experiences at past companies instead of their current employer especially if you're paranoid about your anonymity but feel free to use as you see fit.
Again, the site was made 3 years ago when I was young and stupid, so there are a lot of issues (plaintext passwords, anyone?). If there's significant interest I'll start fixing them right away. Check it out:
