Next Thursday, over 100 technologists from the Mid-Atlantic will be convening for a very special Super Meetup 2020 on the interwebs. Come out on Thursday, Aug. 13, for a one-of-a-kind virtual trivia night, meetup matchup, and opportunity to learn from local companies about their culture and open roles.

Leading up to the event, we created a rundown of participating companies who are hiring and why it’s worth coming to this year’s Super Meetup (beyond testing your tech trivia knowledge). Oh, and we’ve included a few choice job openings.

Comcast

Comcast creates incredible technology and entertainment that connects millions of people to the moments and experiences that matter most. It drives innovation every day through its valuable portfolio of products and services while preserving the distinctive identity and purpose of its brands. Here, you’ll collaborate with diverse and passionate people to help reimagine industries, invent new technologies, and create extraordinary experiences for customers. Comcast invites you to come as you are, and make an impact.

Ordway

D.C.-based Ordway offers a billing and revenue automation platform that aims to make it easier to manage subscriptions and contracts, bill, collect and grow revenue at scaling businesses. Its end goal is to build one of the coolest finance apps out there and create a meaningful, user-friendly experience. Ordway emphasizes a very transparent, open, collegial and collaborative culture, where all conversations are encouraged to happen in public channels.

SmartLogic

In business since 2005, SmartLogic builds custom web and mobile applications for clients ranging from funded startups to Fortune 500 companies. What does the team look for in candidates? People who are solid technical talents, self-directed and deeply interested in programming; for you, it’s more than a job, you read about it in your spare time. They do not micromanage and those who succeed are very independent.

14 West

Founded in 2001, Baltimore-based 14 West grounds their expertise in mobile and web dev. 14 West is the backbone of The Agora, a network for over 40 publishing and direct marketing companies that exist across 17 countries. It serves as the technology, accounting, human resources, legal and facilities teams for their clients. Employees and their career paths are front and center, and teammates are known for breaking the mold. The business continues to succeed by supporting employees’ ideas while challenging them and poking holes to help them develop professionally and continue to deliver the highest quality services to their clients.

Baltimore City of Information Technology

BCIT is responsible for the City of Baltimore’s first ever Inclusive Digital Transformation Strategic Plan. Over the next decade, its mission is to engage all City departments, businesses and citizens to design, build and implement technology that creates a safe, thriving and smart city. Its goal is to provide sustainable infrastructure and technology to support and enhance City departments, communities, businesses and mayoral goals.

Linode

Located in Philadelphia, Linode is the largest independent open cloud provider. Customers can develop, manage and scale applications with Linode’s compute, storage and networking solutions. Fostering a supportive environment is a big part of the culture and the backbone of the work the company does. The team is passionate about solving problems and helping people, and as a result, professional growth at Linode is bound only by individual ambitions.

Ascensus

At Ascensus, the team focuses on making saving straightforward, effective and affordable while making a difference in millions of financial lives.

Human, honest, hungry and high-caliber are its core values. Promptworks always looks for candidates who are empathetic and genuinely care about client success. It emphasizes an ego-free environment where everyone collaborates, shares knowledge and helps bring the product to life as a team.

IntegriChain prides itself on valuing their employees — called “IntegriChainers.” The company looks for every chance to promote from within, and offers a laundry list of desirable benefits, including professional development opportunities, work-from-home options, student loan reimbursement, paid parental leave and an emphasis on corporate social responsibility.

Deacom

Call them the artisans of ERP software. The Kaizen philosophy is the backbone of Deacom’s development and day-to-day consciousness. It is about thinking bigger than just a quick fix for a customer request. Instead, the team at Deacom takes a step back and creates new strategies for how a single concept could be designed to make a bigger impact for multiple customers and the software’s evolution. Does this unique way of thinking sound like you? Do you like versatile work, exploring a different approach and working with incredible people? Yes? OK then, you may want to look into Deacom as your next career move.

URBN

In the ever-evolving industries of fashion and tech, no two days as a technologist at URBN are the same. An active and data-rich customer base offers the tech team endless opportunities to get creative with the brands’ ecommerce experiences and customer engagement. It’s all about communication and collaboration. So what’s the internal culture like? There are no silos, no corporate hierarchy. Execs here are normal people who know everyone’s names. Also attractive to its mostly millennial workforce? It has the stability of a corporate company with a startup mentality.
