Ask HN: Who is hiring interns? (October 2010 Edition)
A take on the previous question, for the students browsing HN.
We do satellite image processing (mostly Moon and Mars), computer vision, and robot software. We like developers and/or researchers. (mike.lundy@nasa.gov)
Some projects we have our hands in, in no particular order:
- Mars/Moon 3d in Google Earth (http://earth.google.com)
- WorldWide Telescope Mars (http://www.worldwidetelescope.org)
- GigaPan Robotic Camera (http://gigapan.org)
- Mars/Moon 2d (http://mars.google.com / http://moon.google.com)
- Robotic Follow-up (http://lunarscience.nasa.gov/robots)
Hard systems problems. Fun people. Good pay. Internships year round. Join us, together we will rule the [database] universe.
This is everything we stand for: http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=1747713
Academia.edu helps academics follow the latest research in their field. Here are a few bullet points that sum up the atmosphere in our team:
- obsession with exceptional engineering
- obsession with building a great web product, and a great user experience
- intellectually inquisitive - we like delving into ideas, whatever the ideas are about
- fun and friendly - we enjoy each other's company a lot, and have a great deal of respect for each other.
We are hiring intern engineers. Here are some of the technologies we work with: Rails, Nginx, Node.js, Redis, Memcached. We are based in downtown San Francisco. More information about the team, and about how we think about software engineering and product development, is here http://academia.edu/hiring. Specifics on our developer internship program are here http://academia.edu/hiring/developer_intern
We're a small (10 full time) but profitable internationally focused consumer internet start-up where you will get direct exposure to the founders and all aspects of the business.

We look forward to hearing from you.
This is a paid internship. We are very flexible in terms of workload / work hours, so you could definitely fit it into your schedule. You can find more information about the position at http://koda.us/employers/koda/jobs/1629875
If you are interested or just want to hear more about KODA, drop me a line at max@koda.us
You would be working on Rails app and play with cool and fun things like cappuccino, redis and mongodb. Possibility of getting hired full time later on.
So, if you want to discover China and join a small growing startup (we do both consulting and our own products), send me a mail at guillaume -squiggly sign- agiletomato.com.
We're also interested in designers...
To me, an internship is about learning how to work with people (or: how a business works) and meeting awesome people (or: making connections). Figure out what it actually means to ship a product, getting real world experience, etc. You can't do much of that if the only contact you have with the company is a Skype session every few days. Thats closer to freelancing than interning.
That said, if I didn't lose your interest, Justin.tv is looking for interns[1]. You should totally apply, if you're in the SF area. I can tell you firsthand that you'll have a great time and learn a ton -- I did an internship with them over the past summer. Feel free to shoot me an email if you have any questions.
Do companies near you have job openings* ? Send them an email asking if they'll consider an intern filling the spot instead.
*They probably do. Even if it's not advertised.
We develop a new programming language for the web. Plenty of interesting problems, including system programming, web development, compilation, static analysis, concurrency. Internships for all seasons, from 1st year of university to post-doc.
There are 20+ of us in the R&D group, and we're out to change the web.
Contact careers@mlstate.com .
We're a small but well-backed company, about to enter a rapid growth phase. If you think you could help us with engineering, biz dev or design, we'd love to hear from you right now (ozan@topguest.com)
If you live somewhere other than SF, we could potentially pick you up on our migratory drive from NY. Or give you a couch to crash on when we get there.
Example past intern projects: optimizing a javascript buddylist for thousands of buddies, implementing a web-based filetranfer, building out a cassandra cluster and moving an existing project from mysql->cassandra
We're building Jarvis from Iron Man (mobile -- and everything else -- client, web server, augmented reality, etc).
Interesting data problems, interesting user experience problems, and we're all foodies :-)
Shoot me an email if you'd like to help out (marc@getzazu.com)
Swimming (and possibly drowning) at the software-hardware interface. Projects will largely involve building an ecosystem around the world's smallest and fastest 32-bit multi-threaded microprocessor core.

I'm interested to get in touch about the biz dev position.
Is there an e-mail address I can reach you at?
