- Discord | Senior Software Engineer, Application Security | REMOTE (US West Coast) or San Francisco, CA | $196K-$245K base + equity
Discord is where communities and friend groups spend time together, on desktop, mobile, and now more and more inside games and third-party apps built on our platform. That surface area, plus a huge, engaged, occasionally adversarial user base, makes application security a genuinely hard and interesting problem here.
We are hiring a Senior Software Engineer to join the Application Security team. This is hands-on product engineering: building security features that protect user accounts, strengthening authentication and session security, and improving security-critical services. You will work directly with product teams to ship user-facing account security tools and address emerging threats.
Stack: Python primarily, some TypeScript/React, some Rust, occasional JavaScript. Runs on GCP.
Looking for: hands-on AppSec experience (not just compliance-flavored security), comfort reading and writing code across languages, experience shipping production software, and sound judgment on prioritizing real risk over checklist security. Experience with authentication, passkeys, MFA, or session management is especially relevant.
Location: Remote from the US West Coast. If you are in the Bay Area, our SF office is an option. Relocation to the Bay Area is not required.
Interview process: recruiter call, coding round, HM interview, virtual onsite, decision.
by somethingnew - Trustworthy Technology | Earth | Part Time | REMOTE | Anything
Hi, we are a small group trying to bring the "trustworthy" feature back to tech. Curating and building a FOSS+ toolset, storefront, and eventually online service—all to support freedom, privacy, and informed consent—on device and on the net.
We've written our thoughts and research down at: https://trustworthy.technology/ and we have a few geeks starting projects at: https://codeberg.org/aol
First off, you'll notice that you've probably not heard about this project before. Next, the message is a bit scattered, and the "programmer art," while arguably not horrible isn't winning any awards either, haha.
That's where you come in.
You are one of the few folks who really cares about this stuff, and also a graphic/product designer, or perhaps a digital marketer, communicator or "people whisperer." (Being in the EU would be helpful as well, to work from the digital sovereignty angle, though not required.) Geeks are welcome too.
Some of us are unemployed and currently donating our time. Maybe you are too, or retired/cashed-out and bored. Consider this another FOSS-like project. We hope the store/service will make money, but we're not there yet.
Interested? Let's chat at: https://trustytech.zulipchat.com/join/ivui3uglp2at3tyltau7jj...
BTW, if/when you join please say hi and let us know what kind of projects you're interested in.

Hi HN! We’re a YC-backed, Series-A startup building robots that build large-scale solar farms.
We just published a new video of our production system here! https://youtu.be/ix0oMgqTfko
It turns out that construction companies literally can't build solar fast enough, so what we're doing is a crucial part of switching the grid over to renewable generation.
You’ll be a key contributor, helping bring our next generation of mobile solar factory to life.
Come work with us if you love:
* Fast-paced prototype development with software and hardware components
* Making a positive climate impact through your work
* Hacking on massive construction equipment!
