Looking for software engineers, QA, support engineers, interns, and more: http://www.10gen.com/jobs. Working remotely depends on the job.
Working on MongoDB is great: there are tons of interesting programming problems, an awesome community, my coworkers are brilliant, and you get paid to work on open source software.
We're looking for Semantic Web and Ruby Developers but if you're a strong developer who doesn't know Ruby yet that's no obstacle. We have extremely flexible hours, collaborative coder DNA, and we provide good tools, lunches, and great health care.
Pikimal is working to change how people use the web to make decisions. Once users tell us what's important to them, we can tell them what's best for them. Since all of our recommendations are based solely on facts, users receive results separate from marketing.
Please include a link to public code you've written or your Github repo when you apply. Feel free to reach out directly to my first name @pikimal.com
Current Openings:
* Software Developer
* Marketing Analytics Focus
* Sales: FogBugz and Kiln
* Intern in software development (Summer 2011)
Software developers at Fog Creek get spacious, sunlit private offices, unlimited computer gear, electronic height-adjustable desks, Aeron chairs, and a plush office featuring marble showers, a library, a salt water aquarium, professional espresso machine, daily gourmet catered lunch, unlimited snacks, video games and movie nights, and the opportunity to work with a great team.
We've been profitable since inception, and are growing rapidly, developing software products that help software developers make great software. We offer world-class compensation and benefits and a terrific work environment. We're always on the lookout for great people to join the team.
Global Earthquake Model Secretariat is hiring a Senior Software Engineer who is familiar with large scale computing, has serious Python chops, and some experience in open source development. GIS, numpy/scipy experience is a plus.
See http://www.songkick.com/info/jobs for details, and contact joinsongkick@songkick.com if you're interested.
In our case this means working closely with developers, product owners etc. early in the development cycle to ensure that acceptance criteria are fully explored and agreed on, helping the engineering team build automated acceptance tests, which we use to drive development, and exploratory testing throughout the development process.
Your explanation makes some sense, but (IMO) engineering teams should just strive to have developers own the testing process, especially if you except it to be "agile" automated testing of the unit/functional/continuous integration variety. Is testing not something that developers should (collectively) own?
More finely granulated titles/roles = less agile.
Our QA will test any new changes from every possible angle (will that work on all international sites? For all products? What if a user gets half way through that process, opens a new tab and changes to a different point in the flow, makes some changes, then comes back to the first tab and continues? What happens then?)
That and thorough regression testing mean that no matter how subtle any introduced bugs might be, QA will make sure that at the very least it won't effect sales (or whatever core business process is absolutely mission critical).
While in theory developers could do all of this, having staff that set out deliberately to break developers code creates a really good dynamic in the workplace. We mark stories as code complete and expect testers to come back with at least one round of bugs. A lot of the time we'll spot them just as or just before we commit, but the testers are good at digging down and finding edge cases that developers often miss.
We're a 60-person financial-software firm committed to learning and improvement as well as great web software and agile development. We're hiring developers and other smart folks of many kinds. See http://www.youdevise.com/careers and https://dev.youdevise.com.
No remote working, but we do help successful candidates relocate to London or Boston. We relocated a HN reader from Denmark earlier this year for example. We sponsor London HN meetups and wouldn't mind doing so in Boston too.
We're looking for a Rails (we use a lot of cool tech, like rails 3 and mongodb) and/or Android (wanna port our app over to scala?) guy to help us out. I'm the CTO of Zazu -- http://getzazu.com --, where we're building the Smartest Damn Alarm Clock (but we're so much more than that). Get in touch with me at marc@getzazu.com
We're based out of Boston, but you can work from anywhere.
The end goal of Zazu is to build Jarvis from Iron Man. We have delusions of grandeur, but we will not rest until it's done. The current iteration of the product is an Android application that replaces the built-in alarm clock with an alarm clock that we believe to be more intelligent: it pulls whatever information you find important -- like your RSS feeds, your calendar, your email, your twitter stream -- and reads that information to you using a Text-To-Speech engine.
We're working with a few big brands to create a new form of interactive marketing/advertising and we promise that we're only going to be providing relevant information to our users... so y'all won't be blasted with Colon Blow advertisements 1000x a day.
We're going to be leaving the morning space fairly soon, meaning we'll integrate with your calendar to let you know what you need to regarding where you are and where you need to be (both physically and metaphorically). We're trying to transform the moment of alert into a moment of informed decision making. We'll be looking at emails and other areas that involve alerting and decision making, too.

You might want to remove that ad on the header atleast on the careers and the about us pages on your site. IMHO, it doesn't make a good first impression.

Telecommuting considered for the right candidate http://elationemr.com/
We're a small (there's only four of us!), angel-funded startup building revolutionary electronic tools for physicians. Our investors include Ron Conway, who recently named us one of his 12 startups to watch: http://techcrunch.com/2010/11/16/ron-conways-crystal-ball-12...
We're doing some really awesome things with a number of technologies.. Our stack includes Python/Django, MySQL, jQuery, Java. We'd like to add at least two more people to the development team in short-order (more details here: http://elationemr.com/jobs.html).
Please be in touch. We'd love to tell you more about what we're up to!
They're backed by well-networked investors with solid records of success, the founders are extremely familiar with the health industry and have a solid plan to take it on (not to mention, EMR is about to explode and all current implementations of it are stone-age), and the problems you'd be working on are absolutely awesome. You'd be creating a highly sought after product that's poised to create a tremendous amount of value, both in the way patients and physicians interact, and as a profitable product.
If UI and Javascript are your specialty, then I can guarantee you that you won't find more interesting work, and if you do, it certainly will not have greater possible upside or impact on an industry.

HQ is located in New York, but we recently opened an engineering office in San Francisco. We're hiring aggressively for both offices. There are currently only 4 people in the SF office, but we're looking to grow it to a full-fledged 10-person office in the next few months.
We're using Scala, Lift, and MongoDB on the back-end; jQuery and HTML5 on the front-end.
NYC and SF only at this time. We can help relocate you.

Unfortunately remote working isn't a possibility for us, but we're located in central London!
http://1010data.com/company/careers/current-job-openings
We're looking to fill a couple roles: Web Application Developer, Systems Developer, Infrastructure Engineer, and Data Analyst.
We're a 'big data' company and the problems we work on are pretty interesting. Among other reasons to be curious, our programmers all learn K. Contact jobs at 1010data (and mention HN).
We're a young entrepreneurial company that bootstrapped its way from its founder bedroom to a 150-strong company with very healthy profits in 6 years without any external capital.
We are behind uswitch.com, getinvisiblehand.com, omio.com, justcages.co.uk, petvillas.co.uk, forward3d.co.uk etc.
You can take a look at who we are and what we do at http://www.forwardtechnology.co.uk.
One of our guys created statefulapp.com during the recent Rails Rumble (been on the frontpage of HN recently), many others contribute to open source.
We have been doubling our revenues every single year (up to £100m in 2010) and plan to continue to do it as long as possible. So, we need great people!
We're looking for great developers (and many other roles too) to work on a variety of exciting online projects. We use Clojure, Ruby, Hadoop, Node.js, Sinatra etc.
Above all we're looking for smart, ambitious, entrepreneurial people. Full job spec is here: http://www.forward.co.uk/careers or here: http://www.forwardtechnology.co.uk/
And it's fun to work here: you choose the hardware you want, you buy the books you need, the hours are flexible, no dress code, the people are reasonable and the entertainment budget is generous: for example the entire company hangs out in Las Vegas night clubs and casinos for 4 days every December (meet us all there next Thursday) and we've recently returned from Disneyland in Paris (birthday celebrations).
To find out more email me at evgeny.shadchnev@forward.co.uk with your CV.
p.s. sorry, all our devs are on-site, we don't hire remote devs. Also, given the recent changes to the immigration laws in the UK, it will be very challenging (maybe even impossible) for us to arrange a visa unless you're an EU national or already have a work permit.

* Software Engineers!
* Creative/Designers
* QA
* Businesses analysts
The company is growing very rapidly and killing it in the market. And there will be a lot of opportunity for new businesses as well : http://techcrunch.com/2010/11/30/flash-sales-site-gilt-group...

We're hiring at Monetate. We've hired great people from HN.
We're a SAAS provider of testing, targeting and personalization tools (i.e. segmentation, A/B testing, MVT) to internet retailers. We've got existing high-volume customers. We're small, profitable, and we're growing fast. We're funded by First Round.

* We're also hiring front-end developers who want to help build and test experiments and own our client facing UI. You should be experienced in working with production-quality cross-browser HTML/CSS and Javascript with and without frameworks.
We have fun problems at scale, great people to work with, and we get instant feedback from our clients on everything we put out! We're having a blast.

If you have any questions, I'd be happy to talk.. kshouler at monetate
TechCrunch is. We're looking for an intermediate-level Rails developer to help us out on CrunchBase (the versioning complicates a seemingly simple product quite a bit). We are doing a back-end rework of the existing code base and this needs to be deployed soon. There are also interesting features that are planned after the deploy.
I reckon majority of your time will be spent working on CrunchBase. Since TC runs on the WP platform, some portion of your time would be spent on operational stuff as well (at least until we find a dedicated person for that). Additional PHP background could be put to good use here as both operational requirements/small new projects keep coming up from time to time.
We are understaffed currently (I'm the only in-house Rails Dev/Tech everything person) and we definitely need a smart, hands-on, motivated person.
Contact me directly (email in my bio).
With $29 million in a recent Series A round we are rapidly expanding. Endgame Systems is a security software and services company. Our recent http://www.iptrust.com app shows one of our applications.
We are current hiring two types of developers:
* Python: Django, JavaScript, Cassandra, MySQL. We use Python all throughout our stack and in our big NoSQL backend systems.
* Visualization: we have petabytes of security related data, and presenting this in a sharp UI is challenging. We're looking to build with HTML 5, Protovis, Flash, and other related technologies.
Sadly no remote work is available right now, but our midtown Atlanta office is cool.
Please email me at mattculbreth AT gmail.com.
Guidewire Software - We do software for the P&C insurance industry, but we build a lot of cool stuff to let us build those systems (like the Gosu programming language, http://gosu-lang.org). We need people both to work on the applications and to work on our platform, including our web framework, our Eclipse plugins, and our ORM layer. The company was founded back in late 2001 and is still privately held, but at this point we're very stable and successful.
http://www.guidewire.com/careers
You can e-mail me directly (akeefer at gmail) if you have any questions or if you don't want to get lost in the HR shuffle. I'm the Chief Platform Architect, so if you end up working in our platform group you'd be working with me.

Python/Virtualization/Scaling
https://rackspace.hua.hrsmart.com/ats/js_job_details.php?req... We are looking for a Sr. Python Developer who is interested in solving some of the most pressing problems in our industry such as how to scale the enormous demand for utility computing and how to fit that within the traditional business model of a managed IT offering. With cloud servers being the most basic building block for services that Rackspace will offer, our ability to deliver on features and scalability are paramount.
In addition to our primary goal of building our next generation cloud offering, we are building all the necessary tools and utilities to manage and sustain an ecosystem of users and developers of the Rackspace Cloud Servers platform. CloudFiles, Drizzle, Cassandra and other tools in development will be used. We are looking for passionate advocates of technology. We're looking for people who don't just use these these tools and services, but people that write them. It is one thing to start a virtual machine on a host, it is another to have the curiosity to read the source code and figure out how it all works. We are looking to balance the "been there, done that" with the "why can't we do it that way?" mentality of thinking. The ability to challenge assumptions and conventions is important.

Looking for an outstanding software engineer. We help people find apartments. We're an Agile development team for the flagship division of a well-established Internet advertising company. We run multiple sites receiving over 3 million unique visitors a month.
Our company is primarily a PHP shop, but we care less about your knowledge of PHP and more about your understanding of object-oriented programming and interpersonal skills. (If you'll invest in us, we'll invest in you.) Also, we maintain a lot of mobile apps and are developing some new applications with Ruby on Rails. We're looking for people who at least have an interest in design patterns, unit testing, test-driven development, and Agile project management.
In addition to just running traditional big websites, projects focus on mobile websites, mobile apps, client-side awesomeness, SMS services, web analytics, reporting, automated testing, highly available systems, user experience, web services, data distribution, email marketing, search engine optimization and various administrative tools.
It's very rare to work more than 40 hours a week here. As a new team member, you'll get a brand-new iMac and a 24" second monitor. You can run whatever OS and IDE you like. Your meetings will be focused on collaboration rather than process. We focus on working software, not comprehensive documentation. We hire motivated individuals so we can give them the tools they need and trust them to get the job done. There are frequent technical training sessions. There are various user groups within the company that meet once a month and lunch is always provided. We also provide tuition reimbursement.

Part of the system (mostly low level order routing and data feed management) is built out in C++, so they need a resident expert to be the go to fixer and developer on those parts of the system. This role has a lot of responsibility, if you are into that kind of thing.
Ideally you should have some experience with financial data systems in a trading capacity. Other big things are socket programming and strong knowledge of the network stack. Some core Java is good as well. Very high compensation, and a great location to work.

We were an acquired studio, so we still operate like a startup and have all really talented, smart people. We're also working on new games!
Two programming positions: one 'junior' one 'mid level'. Our flagship site is Drupal with new tools coming out in Python.
A quickly growing company, still small (~35 people), stock options after a year, good benefits, great atmosphere, dog friendly office, good eats from the kitchen.
Your supervisor is a programmer; we are taking an afterthought of a department and growing it into the main revenue stream. Tons of room for growth, lots of freedom, and your input will be taken seriously.
Strong sys admin skills are not necessary but a huge plus (reverse proxy, managing clusters, etc)
Looking for PHP/javascript and/or CSS ninjas who want to work in a fun and fast paced environment. From where I'm sitting, I can see three bouncy balls, two nerf guns, and a giant bean bag.

We were founded by some smart MIT dudes and got acquired by Rakuten (very large Japanese internet company) but we definitely still operate like a startup. Feel free to message me for more details. Company is FreeCause (http://www.freecause.com for more info)

Awesomeness Reminders LLC
Our first product is still very profitable and I have some more curveballs in the pipeline. Looking for a technical cofounder. I'm technically competent (I code, fairly well, and can hack my way around pretty much anything) but looking for someone way stronger than me. You should be good with python, pylons, cogen, PHP, JavaScript, Linux, etc. You should be about 20-26 years old, good at math, looking to make a lot of money (I have specific targets), and not lost in delusions about "changing the world" and chasing VC funding. Products must have a clear monetization strategy from day 1. Looking to do some cool stuff combining nerdy genius with internet marketing. For the right person I'll fly you out to Mountain View, etc. Please "keep it real."
I'd suggest one of the cofounder-wanted threads would be better, then, than a hiring thread.
