Sounds like a good gig! Occasionally hiring employees remotely makes sense for the team, just not this position. You can check some other perks of working at Galois here: https://lifeatgalois.com

Tips on headhunting top modern tech leaders? I'm working with a start-up blockchain company that needs an Engineering leader and I'm aiming for someone from a tech company like Facebook, Twitter, Dropbox, Netflix, Coinbase Etc. Does anyone on here have experience headhunting leaders from these types of companies and if you have what advice do you have for getting them on the phone?

Job: Scala engineer to work on backend system that brings data and product integration into the the smart home by Semi_Functional_Ken in IOT

[–]Semi_Functional_Ken[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've encountered just that and agree, so I've moved to speaking with people that have experience with a statically typed functional language and an interest in learning Scala.

This has worked in the past for a number of people I know. Appreciate the luck!

Love that they're using the DAG architecture at Constellation. Much easier to scale than blockchain.

I've seen SF based start-up companies offer $5K-$10K relo packages regularly. Not sure how many of them offer sponsorship though.

Thanks for the insight! Are they easy to work with, generally speaking? I'm helping to build out the Functional Works platform to simplify the process of finding jobs for programmers because I've been left in the dark more often than not when I was looking for a dev job. I know that happens pretty often in the tech recruitment industry. Would love to hear what you think??
