Clearmatics (https://www.clearmatics.com) is an established blockchain R&D company in London, UK. We have good ties to the Open Source / Ethereum community, our Lead Engineer works closely with the Ethereum Foundation, and the company is an EEA Member.

We're looking to hire multiple senior engineers to expand our team. Our stack is Ethereum-like so familiarity and passion with the space is key. We are looking for people who are not afraid of unknowns and enjoy working with others to problem solve and break new ground. You should have more than a passing interest in the Ethereum or cryptocurrency space, with contributions to Open Source Projects being a distinct plus. You should be able to reason about technical problems, argue thoughtfully and contribute in a team setting.

We have a lot of hard problems to solve. If you'd like to make significant contributions to the blockchain ecosystem and think you are a match then we'd love to hear from you!

For me it is better because of simplicity and speed. I use it to power a 400 page blog (https://shapeshed.com/) with this source code (https://github.com/shapeshed/shapeshed.com).

I used Jekyll in a small organisation and it meant everyone needed a working Ruby environment This caused much pain across platforms. Hugo ships a single binary for multiple platforms so setup is far simpler. It is also amazingly fast and there have been major performance improvements in 0.17 too (https://gohugo.io/meta/release-notes/).

I love it!
