Brace | New York, NY | Onsite | Backend Engineer, Frontend Engineer, DevOps Engineer, Fullstack Engineer, Security Engineer
Think Turbo Tax, but for distressed mortgages. It may sound boring, but it turns out that when people can't afford to pay for their houses there is quite a bit you can do to avoid foreclosure. At Brace (https://brace.ai) we're automating advice and document collection to help people stay in their homes. We're a team of six engineers in midtown Manhattan, one of whom was hired from a previous "Who is hiring?" post!
Really positive feedback from initial customers means we have a lot of room to hire for:
- Frontend engineering: Three frontends in React (using CRA), some Typescript, and CSS-in-JS.
- Backend engineering: Vert.x on Java12/13 and Elixir, running on AWS' version of managed Kubernetes called EKS. There's even a little Rust! We're serious about using the correct tools for the problem at hand.
The company strives for the most inclusive and healthy work-life balance you'll find in a startup that's young enough that you can really take ownership of important application features.

Having worked there, I confirm it's a pain, since this issue is pervasive to any service using those. People often have to mid-direct their deliveries, cars, etc to nearby addresses (54, across the street, works fine)

An RSS feed aggregator, that parses the articles and brings saves the 'meat' of it. Caches 20ish articles at a time, so you can flip through them, once loaded, even if there isn't service (on mobile). Also includes weather and train status (currently NYC,Chicago, Washington DC Supported).
Still working on formatting/parsing more feeds, but works for many.
Blurb: NY Code and Design Academy March 2016 Grad. Background in IP law and Economics. Slighlty more backend oriented, but I enjoy working on both sides
