JOB POSTING Software Developers, infrastructure automation, "DevOps Engineers" - SF, Iowa, Illinois, or remote Who we are: Granular - a software company helping farmers use technology to run stronger businesses. We have several software products ranging from business management and task assignment, to data science and sattelite imagery processing, all in the agriculture sector, with customers all over the world. Agriculture is less affected by the pandemic than most industries, and it feels good to work in a net-positive industry. Where we are: San Francisco and Des Moines, IA, with a few other smaller locations. Our entire workforce is currently remote, but even in normal circumstances a sizeable portion is fully remote (including me). I don't know the exact number, but I would guess about 20% of 400ish employees. What we're looking for: Software developers. I'm specifically hoping to find folks for our Cloud Engineering roles, but we also have quite a few other engineering and non-engineering roles available, and I'll happily advocate you for anything that you're a good fit for: https://granular.ag/careers/#available-positions For the Cloud Engineering roles (insert vape jokes), we're looking for software developers that have infrastructure experience (what lots of places call "DevOps Engineers" but that's wrong and off-topic). I believe we have two openings for Senior Software Engineer, Cloud (Developer Experience) and one for Senior Software Engineer, Cloud (Infrastructure). The former is more focused on developer tooling and the latter leans more towards SRE, but it's all one team and the tools and responsibilities are shared. The roles involve infrastructure as code (Terraform), software development (mostly Python, some Go, some other languages), CI/CD (we're moving away from Jenkins if that helps), and AWS-based infrastructure that ranges from straight EC2 instances to Kubernetes to Lambda functions. The various software products were separately developed, so the architectures vary quite a bit and that keeps the job interesting. The Cloud Engineers are our own team, however we're anything but siloed. The application developers write their own Terraform and other IaC, we're just there for assistance as needed and to keep the pipelines as short, safe, and frictionless as possible. We have developer experience software tools that we have created, so the role involves software development as well. The whole organization is on the same page with "automate everything" being the mantra, so there's limited toil but lots of room for automation improvements. We're all on the same team a la the acual idea behind DevOps. There is unfortunately an on-call rotation, but the rotation is about once every 12 weeks and my two rotations so far have been very easy. Salary: Not FAANG, but we pay well as far as I can tell. I don't have insight into the ranges, but I started in October and am very happy with the salary I negotiated as a remote senior developer with almost 20 years of experience, including 7+ years of "juicy" DevOps experience - the kind that recruiters step over their own mothers for. We're eager to find someone for the team to sit in the San Francisco office, so if you're a fit for the role and you live in SF, you probably have additional leeway here. Benefits: high 401(k) match, 12 weeks maternity and 6 weeks paternity (I think), unlimited PTO - I know I know, but they're aware of the stigma that comes with this and from what I've seen so far, they encourage people to take all the time they need. For instance, during the pandemic, we're working half-days on Wednesdays and everyone, especially parents, are encouraged to step away whenever needed, no questions asked. It's a great company, and so far for me they've hit all the right marks regarding work-life balance, happy employees, and being responsible. Contact: PM or email me at crerwin@gmail.com

JOB POSTING Who we are: Bungie - a video game developer. We used to make Halo, and now we're making Destiny 2. We have between 500-1000 employees, and millions of players worldwide. Where we are: Bellevue, WA. (remote to start, but must be willing to relocate when ~this~ is over, can NOT support permanently remote employees at this time) What we're looking for: A Senior IT Engineer, with a focus on cloud experience and Linux experience, especially at scale. The job is this: we have been a primarily Windows-based shop (formerly owned by MS, a lot of former MS employees) but we're working on expanding into more Linux tech (general SA, automation/orchestration, containers) and more cloud tech (we have some presence in all 3 big providers). We're looking for somebody with deep experience in one or both of these areas, especially at scale. If we want to run a fleet of 1000 Linux VMs in AWS... what do we need to know? What are the tools for doing this? What are the things NOT to do? Our IT Engineering team tends to have broad general skills (e.g. we can all handle generating our own SSL certificates and you don't need to ask somebody else to make you DNS records or anything) with a couple of specialties per person (networking, or collaboration software, or AD/Windows, etc). For a senior position, we're looking for somebody with experience running large projects, who can handle things like a budget and talking to vendors, and somebody who can help mentor and train junior engineers in their specialties. This team is responsible for both the studio and its internal operations, as well as running the external production services for our online games. Salary/Benefits: The salaries at Bungie are competitive for the area, especially on the IT Engineering team. The benefits at Bungie are awesome, and the best I've had in my career. Partial list of benefits cribbed from our Careers site:
FILLED Contact: PM or email me at madsushi /at/ gmail.com I'm happy to talk about the role or the team, and answer any questions. I can also send you a direct referral link for the position. Other IT-related Job Postings: Bungie IT Openings - We have a few other IT openings, I'd be happy to answer questions about any of them if you're interested in another posting. madsushi fucked around with this message at 22:52 on Aug 23, 2020 |

I mentioned it to the wife and she perked up about Seattle area being a possibility. according to madsushi when i asked him and sent in my terrible resume for that job madsushi: The ASA position is actually a level above what I usually consider normal help desk duties. General ladder: Helpdesk Support Tech - you're helping end-users and doing tickets 100% of the time Product Support Tech - you're helping end-users and also fixing some application stuff 100% of the time Associate Sys Admin - you're helping end-users sometimes (20-30%), usually via escalation, fixing some application stuff (20-30%), and working 40-50% on projects (solo or as an assist), Active Directory stuff, etc. You're not checking the queue, tickets would come to you as escalation. Sys Admin - the only tickets you get are escalations from ASAs, you're working on internal systems and services for the majority of your job Senior Sys Admin - you're the last line of escalation before it goes to engineering, working on larger projects, especially acting as an assist for engineering, etc.

Job Seeker My experience: 10+ years of performing complex statistical analysis on large, noisy data sets as an astrophysicist. I primarily work in R but can code fluently in Python, SQL, C, and Fortran. In addition to my technical background, I'm also a strong communicator and work best when part of a team. What I'm looking for: Data science roles focused on statistical analysis of large data sets, preferably in R or Python. The main reason I'd like to leave academia is that I really want to work in a more fast-paced environment where I get to deal with lots of different and challenging problems. It would also be nice to work on something that directly impacts people, rather than staring off into space. What I'm NOT looking for: More engineering focused roles. Where I live: NYC. Where I'm looking: NYC or remote. When I can start: Any time in July or August. Requirements: Full-time. Can be reached via: Forums PM please.

There is employer health insurance but it's honestly hard to tell a difference, every place you go takes whatever you have. The only thing that I'd potentially be interested in in terms of benefits is a 401K, but I'd have to be careful since it's kind of illegal for expats to have one. The IRS hates expats. Be aware that if you (assuming you're in the US) ever move abroad and make more than six figures you have to pay taxes twice, where you live and to the US.

I've never had to look into it, but you do get some write-offs for local taxes paid. Whether that's 100% or not all depends on the details of your situation, but you're probably going to pay taxes to both governments. Some people give up their citizenship for this reason. Found a good summary of it quote:Since only about $100,000 of David’s income can be excluded, what happens to the other $75,000?

People mostly give up their citizenship because the foreign-earned exemption only applies to earned income, and not passive income like investments. If your income is all earned, then the point of the tax treaties is to avoid being taxed disjointly in both places on the same income. You may pay both governments, but it shouldn’t total more than what you would have paid if being taxed by just the government with the highest tax rate. The summary you link basically describes this.

You're talking about foreign tax credit, and only some taxes are applicable to get that credit. If you are making significantly over 100k you are almost always going to be paying more taxes than just the higher government rate. There are ways you can try to get around this with accounting tricks, but it's not super easy. US is kind of peculiar in that it punishes ex-pats who make a bunch of foreign income.
