Tardigrade | Developer Evangelist | San Francisco, CA Atlanta, GA REMOTE OK | Full-time |www.tardigrade.io

Tardigrade is decentralized cloud object storage. With Tardigrade cloud storage, your files are encrypted and split into pieces client-side before being distributed across our network of high-performance storage nodes. Like the mighty water bear after which we are named, we are resilient, durable, and just generally awesome.

As developer evangelist you’ll be the public face of Tardigrade, helping to grow our developer community. You like brainstorming with others, and feel gratified when your help helps others succeed. You treat others kindly, make time for everyone who has interest in the product, and understand enough about business to identify those who’d benefit from talking with our biz dev team. You will foster relationships with influential developers and inspire them to use our platform and build innovative, useful things on top of it.

You are a skillful, engaging presenter: unafraid of operating in crowds, and able to confidently project caring, a deep credibility, development expertise and first-hand experience. You will be inspiring developers through educational activities to engage with our platform technologies. You’ll produce and contribute to open-source projects; speak at and attend conferences and industry events, and hackathons; write blog articles; create demos and code samples.

We offer great benefits such as unlimited PTO (paid time off), health/dental/vision insurance, employer-matched 401k, and a bonus plan

Requirements

- Professional experience equivalent to a Lead Engineer or BS in Computer Science (you’ve shipped some code). Very organized; can balance multiple priorities

- Familiar with our product, or able to ramp up to a proficient level in a short time

- Publicly available writing samples and recordings of presentations on tech topics

- Established professional presence on social media and forums

- Some contributions to GitHub and/or open source communities

- Ability and willing to spend 50% of your time traveling: domestically between Tardigrade headquarters in Salt Lake City and San Francisco and Atlanta, with a permanent residence in one of these cities; and internationally (Europe and Asia)

different prices to different users are foundational to the wedding industry and airlines/hotel, just off the top of my head. When I worked in travel a long time ago, there was a saying that if any 2 people paid the same price, somebody did their job wrong (paraphrasing - it was a very long time ago)

In both of those cases however it's very easy for the vendor to cover their tracks. I imagine it would behoove you to do the same if you're taking a similar tack.


Amusingly, I play in wedding bands (we also work other sorts of functions such as corporate events). The bandleaders certainly have a la carte pricing. Do you want a singer? Extra hours for setup? Emcee service? Travel to a distant location?

The venue for the event is a good indicator of how much money the client has.

The musicians themselves charge different prices. They expect to get paid more for a higher budget event.

If client A recommends the band to client B, then B will usually know what A paid. That's OK, because a referral gig is usually easier to book, and worth keeping the spigot flowing by sticking with the same price.


My concerns generally revolve around the situation where users find out they've been charged different prices.


Nothing will happen in that case other than you maybe having to adjust the price.

Storj develops an open-source, decentralized cloud storage platform called Storj (pronounced storage) that is disrupting the cloud storage market. Rather than storing files in a data center, Storj works by encrypting and partitioning files, then sending the shards to a network of devices contributed by our global community—with active storage nodes on every continent except Antarctica. We rent unused hard drive space from users all over the globe, operating active storage nodes on every continent (except Antarctica). Our core target is selling to software developers and channel partners who get higher quality, privacy, and security at 1/6th the price. We are laying the groundwork for the future of decentralization and web 3.0.

Headquartered in Atlanta, Storj is a global company with North American employees in California, Washington, Utah, Michigan, and Georgia, and European employees in Germany and Bulgaria.

Most of our engineering team sits in Atlanta, where the company was founded. We're in the Atlanta Tech Village, Buckhead. The bulk of our marketing team is in our downtown Salt Lake City office at the Impact Hub co-office building located at 150 S. State Street.

i do the exercises from the 30-day Posture Makeover app. I was in a really bad car accident years ago. My car was totaled when a truck delivering heavy equipment to a construction site, hydorplaned and rear-ended me. I have had all kinds of jacked-up nerve damage and pain from it over the years, but this seems to help.

Also standing up and walking around, even for 30 seconds every once in a while helps a LOT.


oh and one more comment -- i sw that other people posted about RSI. Im convinced that the number one reason I dont have incapacitating carpal tunnel is the I frequently switch the hand I use my external mouse with.Try it out, if you dont already. I also use a wireless keyboard and wireless mouse. Crunching forward all the time to huddle over a laptop takes a real toll as years go by.


there are lots of premixed Japanese curry blends. Start off with Golden Curry roux blocks, and then you might want to branch out to other brands like Vermont Curry (tastes of apple and honey, its right there on the package!). Its actually even lazier dish than Mae Ploy because all you add it water. You dont even need to have coconut milk in the pantry.


Came here to shill roux blocks too. Learned about them just a month ago. Easy to prepare and great flavor!
