CerteDrive | Senior Software Engineer | Remote | Full Time

CerteDrive is a leading platform for managing DOT Physicals, Drug Screens, Breath Alcohol Testing, Agility Screening, and other occupational health services. Through a custom built application, CerteDrive clients have access to a nationwide network of qualified clinics, discounted rates, and the ability to authorize, track and receive results on their employer portal. CerteDrive actively provides services for many of the largest transportation companies in the country.

We are looking for an individual who has strong technical skills, can understand the intricacies of business, and wants to make an impact. You would be leading projects and a small team to make that happen.

Stack: Rails, Angular, MySQL, Kafka, Docker, AWS

If interested send email careers@certedrive.com

Playing devils advocate:

- If the hack/virus was already installed, a network shutoff won't help much.

- If a car is 10 years old with 10 years of safety updates/patches, resetting to the original firmware might not be a viable solution. But there needs to be a failsafe way of knowing the running software has not been tampered with.

It's used to search their site for products. If you want to buy a "571B Banana Slicer" the easiest way to find it on amazon's site is to use their search.

The search feature being broken translates to sales being close to zero for that time period.

CerteDrive | Fullstack Rails Engineer | Grand Rapids, MI

Mike here, CTO of Certedrive. We just started looking to add 2-3 developers to help us expand our product offering. We are a startup with customers in 37 states and looking to expand that number to 48 in the next 6 months.

I moved to Grand Rapids from SF two years ago and I have been very happy here. If you live near Grand Rapids or you are looking to move to an awesome place and you are a great rails developer, contact me: mike@certedrive.com.

No remote at this time (although some do work from home a couple days a week when they want to).

There are people with needs and people with solutions. I understand where you are coming from, but advertising a solution to people that may have that need is not always evil.

There are many times where I am glad I saw advertising: my favorite band is coming to town, a new product that will save me hours a day just got released, the shoes I have been looking for are being sold at 30% off.

I don't want to give up all of my privacy, but sometimes I don't mind finding a solution to something in my peripheral focus.

Some may suggest to convert the email address into it's base form and store it in an extra field. So mike+extra@gmail.com would become mike@gmail.com. Use the extra field to block any new signups that match an existing base address. But this has a high chance of blocking valid email addresses. Different email providers allow different aliases: plus, hyphen, dot, equals. That, combined without knowing which each email service a domain is using, makes this method very difficult to get right.

They are storing it as you entered it in a hash, not storing them as all uppercase or all lowercase. If they stored it as all uppercase, then you could randomly change the case of any letter, which does not work.

They are probably still storing hashed passwords. It would require hashing your login attempt 3 times: 1) exactly you typed it 2) forcing first character to be lower case 3) inverting the case of all letters.

The feature of reminding you to do X when you are near Y is part of the Reminders app, not Siri. Siri only has the logic to take a verbal request and add a reminder to that app.

I have used GoDaddy for their DNS services and have been very happy with their customer service. No issues so far after ~2 years. I may research other DNS though, comments of how easily they shut people down makes me nervous.

Note to Pinolio: I may have missed it, but I did not find a link to your service on your blog.
