Hi, I'm a C++ software engineer at Ripple. I work on the Ripple XRP Ledger, a peer-to-peer decentralized payment server (see https://github.com/ripple/rippled).
We're looking to hire a Senior C++ Software Engineer. The official ad is here: https://ripple.com/company/careers/all-jobs/#senior-software...
The team knows the C++ language well. Two members regularly attend committee meetings and one member has made substantial contributions to the language. If you like working with C++, you'll be very happy here. We use `14 and intend to move to `17 soon.
Our software is cross platform, and you're welcome to use your preferred tools. The team is split pretty evenly across Windows, Linux, and Mac.
We're a "remote first" team, spread across the U.S. Almost all communication is done through slack/email/skype.
Ripple is growing fast. We've got great funding, and a great team. Feel free to email me with any questions: determan at ripple.com (My name is Scott).
I realize the two concepts aren't necessarily incompatible, but I'm curious how you avoid preferential treatment for non-remote workers. For example, you advertise "Fully-stocked kitchen with organic snacks, beverages and coffee drinks" for people working out of your SF office, so I'm curious if/how you show equivalent love to your remote workers.
The key takeaway for me was: Remote-first means working remote is the default. It means making sure your remote employees are as much a part of the team as those in the office.
The team I work with - the rippled team - is 100% remote. Other teams within ripple work mostly onsite.
