Bauer Xcel Media | Devops Engineer | Full Time | New York, NY or REMOTE (EST timezone)
Bauer Xcel Media is the small digital 'startup' arm of Bauer Media, a very old, stable, and profitable German publishing company that operates in multiple countries around the world. We have two main products. A content publishing platform on a large scale for our magazines. And a complex app to run a multi-region sweepstakes business for our magazines.
We have a really great culture, a super positive and friendly team, and exceptional work-life balance. We are based in NYC, though the dev team has a very remote-ingrained culture as long as you generally overlap with EST hours.
This role does not include 24/7 pager duty, and since it will be primarily dev-facing, the majority of your communication will be done over slack, JIRA, and google hangouts with a team of bright and friendly people.
We're looking for a mid-level person who can help us clean up and automate some things and keep the ship running smoothly and well-documented. Example tasks could be upgrading our stack, responding to production bugs, creating response plans, creating an automatic database dump process, wrangling review environments, suggest new technologies, documenting our server architecture.
Some technologies we use include Ruby, Rails, Heroku, AWS, Postgres, Mongo.

Bauer Xcel Media | New York, NY | Full Time | Developer REMOTE OK, other positions ONSITE
Bauer Xcel Media is a 'startup' division within the Bauer Media Group, a huge/profitable/long-standing/German/global publishing company. Bauer is one of the largest media companies you've never heard of. It owns some of the most popular magazines in the world, as well as radio stations, huge websites, startup investments, among many other things. Bauer traditionally did not have a strong digital presence, and Xcel is the team tasked with changing that. We build high-traffic magazine websites and are experimenting with ways to monetize sites, such as through a global sweepstakes platform.
While we have a large German parent-company, we operate as a separate 'startup' and are growing like crazy. About our culture:
* We work out of a very nice and fun WeWork office.
* There is an _incredible_ emphasis on work-life balance.
* Late nights are extremely rare, vacation is very-much encouraged.
* There is a focus on results, not butt-in-seat hours.
* We have a remote-friendly culture, depending on your team and role.
* Everyone is super friendly.
* The company is extremely diverse in terms of age, race, and gender.
* We work on global problems with teams from other countries.
* Interesting technical and business problems!
* Lots of room for career growth as we scale the company up
The developer position is more of an "we are always looking for good developers" rather than a specific job posting, but send me your resume anyway if you are interested.
I've noticed this on multiple occasions: Uber has pretty terrible built-in GPS. It almost always has my drivers taking the larger/busier roads even though they are less direct and more congested than side streets. It's like when Google Maps gives you the three possible routes, Uber often picks the equivalent of that weird third route that makes no sense.
