Fitbit is hiring full-time software and hardware engineers.
I've been a Principal Software Engineer at Fitbit since November (previously Senior Software Engineer at Google) and Fitbit is an awesome place to work. The company culture is fantastic. The people are great to work with. The Boston office feels like a startup because it's so small and new, yet we're well-funded and secure. Everywhere I go people tell me they love our product or know someone who loves it and talks about it.
If you're really good but none of those positions seems to exactly fit you, apply anyway. New projects are emerging with big data, new products, and other ideas. Feel free to reply with general-interest questions. Personal inquiries can be emailed to me, blewis at the obvious domain.
In Site Engineering, we're using jQuery, underscore, Handlebars, Backbone, Stylus, Buster, Selenium, requirejs, and Highcharts on the front end, with new technologies introduced as needed. We're only using node as part of the build system for now. The back end is tomcat with a lot of Spring and Hibernate in front of mysql.
Some big data projects I'm aware of also use Python. Beyond that, check job listings to know what tools might be used.

We started our journey in 2007—as a team of two with one big idea. Today, that idea has become a movement. Fitbit is now a publicly-traded company creating award-winning products and services that are available across the globe. We’re transforming the way the world sees health & fitness. In fact, the Fitbit Community has taken enough steps to walk from the Sun to Pluto. Our culture combines the spirit of startup with the perks of being public—offering a competitive benefits package and amazing perks like free lunches, Friday happy hours, on-site fitness classes and more. As part of our team, you’ll have the opportunity to grow your career, contribute your ideas to life-changing products and services, and—above all—have fun doing it.
What You'll Do:
• Create engaging yet computationally efficient interactive data visualizations that are optimized for mobile devices with touch screens. This is an area of user interfaces for which there is no established solution; we aim to set the standard.
• Overcome the hurdles of distributed systems to build native mobile clients that are tolerant of transient connectivity. We aim for our mobile clients and sensor devices to function together as normally as possible even when there is no connection to the internet.
• Exploiting low power communication technologies to make the internet of things a reality. We have been on leading edge of consumer deployment for both wearable sensors and Bluetooth Low Energy.
• Crafting beautiful mobile user experiences that allow users to intuitively accomplish any task. Our mobile clients are a vital part of the user interface to the Fitbit platform.
If you are a potential applicant and have questions that aren't answered in the job descriptions, feel free to send me an email: blewis at my work domain. I may not answer right away but I'll answer. I know a lot about the web-related positions in Boston, a decent amount about the Health Coaching Platform positions, and at least something about the rest of them.

MyFitnessPal is looking for an experienced Android mobile developer who wants to build and scale a fitness app that has helped millions.

Wello - San Francisco, CA - Full-time, Senior Software Engineer
We are a live fitness marketplace where anyone can find a personal trainer and workout over live video.
Our members work with trainers of their choice (Yoga, Plyometrics, etc) at their own convenience with little or no equipment necessary, save a laptop and an internet connection. Our trainers are highly rated (no one with less that 4 star reviews so far) and we are building a growing but devoted user base. Almost 35% of our users who have worked out once, come back and workout again. However small right now, we generate revenue by taking a cut in the transaction :)
Our audience is elderly, new moms and business professionals who all have a high desire to get or be fit but dont find the time , find it too costly and do not have a regular regimen. With our technology and solution, they can.
Our stack is Django/MySQL. Our video is currently based on top of TokBox. We use Balanced(YC) for our payments since they are well suited for marketplaces like ours. We use Optimizely, MixPanel, Chartio to track our data and learn.
We are looking for a senior software engineer interested in backend and data analysis. We value curiosity, drive and passion over specific technology. However, if you have worked on Python or Video in the past that is a plus.
Software Developers, Data Scientist
(Full Time, Boston based preferred)
We've been helping people lose weight since 2008, and since then Lose It! has reached more than 16 million people (maybe even a few here on HN). We're still a very small company, just 8 people, located in the Seaport District in Boston. We're product focused and believe that small teams can make a huge impact when they are focused and motivated. We're venture backed by General Catalyst and United Healthcare.
If you'd like to help us change people's lives and build the next generation of technology to help people manage their weight, we're looking for developers as well as a data scientist. Learn more at http://www.loseit.com/jobs or drop me a line directly at charles at loseit.com.
