I work at MIT Lincoln Laboratory (http://www.ll.mit.edu), a research and development center run by MIT that does work for the government. My group has about 20 people in it and does application security, reverse engineering, and other low level systems stuff. Knowledge of things like assembly, operating systems, and systems are pluses but not required. It's great if you have some experience in those things, but if you can code I want to talk to you. The pluses:
* Extremely difficult and rewarding problems. In the past few weeks my work has had me hacking on a compiler, scaling up databases, reversing malware, etc. We're a really agile and tight knit group.
* Awesome workplace culture. We're a 9-5 shop, you pick your laptop, and you can order any books that you need.
* We reimburse tuition for classes at MIT. Last semester my office mate took operating systems with Robert Morris. We send you to conferences, including Blackhat and Defcon.
* We sponsor relocation and have multiple positions we want to fill.
You do need to be a US citizen and you will have to get a security clearance. I'm happy to talk to you about how the clearance process works and answer any questions you have. If you're local I'll buy you a cup of coffee while we talk it over. You really can't waste my time. The first step is to get in touch with me and I can explain to you how our hiring process works.

At spider.io, we look to catch bad people doing very bad things.
We catch botnets, browser emulators, clickjackers, traffic launderers, bots that probe for weakness, bots that learn. At spider.io, we look to distinguish legitimate human website visitors from nefarious automated traffic.
It’s a hard engineering problem. It would be a hard problem at toy levels of traffic. We need reverse Turing tests. We need to analyse from the application layer to below the TCP layer. We need clever stateful classifiers, that classify information based on previously received information. And if this isn’t hard enough, imagine doing this across four times the number of messages each day than the number of tweets received by Twitter each day. This is where we’ll be before the year is out. And for us this is just the beginning.
If you're an engineer and would like to help us make this happen, check out our careers page: http://spider.io/careers/
Firstly, a really nice guy and clearly awesome team, who helped me think about some of the issues we're facing in my own startup.
Secondly I have to say this if the state of the web is as they claim, they're onto an awesome product here. If I wasn't working on my own start-up, I'd definitely be interested!
Good luck guys.
Our mission is to provide a world-class education to anyone, anywhere. We already have millions of students learning every month, and we're growing quickly.
Our students answer over 1.75 million math exercise problems per day, all generated by our open source exercise generation framework (http://github.com/khan/khan-exercises, http://ejohn.org/blog/khan-exercise-rewrite/), and Sal's videos have been viewed over 88MM times. We're just getting started feeding this data we're collecting back into the product to help our users learn more. If you're interested in data, analytics, and education, this is a dream gig.
Plus, it's one of the highest educational impact positions you can imagine.
We're hiring all types of devs -- mobile, frontend, backend, whatever you want to call yourself. Big plans ahead.
Matasano Security
Do you like to break things? Was your childhood room full of toys you'd taken apart and put back together in ridiculous ways? You may be just who we're looking for.
At Matasano Security, some of the most interesting companies in the world hire us to break their code/hardware in terrible, terrible ways, and we're looking for people to join the team. Security experience is great but not required, and we love people with interesting backgrounds and insights. Above all else, you have to be quick on your feet and be comfortable learning entirely new languages, frameworks, platforms, etc while attacking a product. You'll be pushed to the very limits of your capabilities and love every minute of it.
If this sounds like fun to you (and it is!), check out http://www.matasano.com/careers
Rackspace is looking for various roles right now in our new location in SOMA (previously we were in the pre-acquisition Cloudkick Office):

http://jobs.rackspace.com/job/San-Francisco-Sr-Python-Develo...
* Frontend Javascript: We are developing Rackspace's next generation of UIs for our customers. We need great frontend engineers, with a heavy focus on javascript to help us.

We are the largest and fastest-growing platform in the world for academics to share research. Over 700,000 academics have signed up, and 90,000 are joining each month. The value that the site provides is that we help academics distribute their papers to a large audience quickly, and we also help them keep up with the latest papers in their field.

★ building new features (a conference feature, a discussion feature for papers)

☀ 2+ years of web development experience
☀ Experience with the full engineering stack
☀ Passion for engineering
We have raised money from Spark Capital (investors in Twitter, Tumblr and Foursquare), and angels including Mark Shuttleworth (from Ubuntu) and Rupert Pennant-Rea (Chairman of The Economist).
All the strategic decisions in the startup are made collaboratively, whether they are about hiring, new feature development, user growth, user retention, funding, or revenue. You can participate in those general startup decisions as much or as little as you want. We have found that our decisions are much better as a result of everyone contributing to them. If you like having an impact, you will enjoy the Academia.edu culture.

Parse is building a new layer of services that abstracts the internet away for mobile developers. We need great engineers to join us in this ambitious goal. This isn't some Web 2.0 company flipping bits for ad sales. We have difficult and interesting engineering problems to solve.

deviantART (http://www.deviantart.com) wants developers. We're fully remote[1]; there's no central office with a devteam located there. We expect all hires to be comfortable working in PHP, JavaScript, CSS, and SQL; we like our developers to be able to hack on any part of the site, rather than being frontend/backend specialists.
One exception to all that: there's an Infrastructure Engineer position which is located in Vancouver. It's C++/Java focused, and involves developing backend services used by the rest of the site.
We keep posting this ad because we have some open-ended hiring intended to grow the company. Available developers are currently a bottleneck on the projects we can work on, and we'd like to change that.
We post information about our development process here sometimes: http://dt.deviantart.com/blog/

At Mixlr, we’re currently looking to meet developers.
Mixlr is a platform for broadcasting and listening to live audio. We launched less than a year ago, and have a large and fast-growing user base including some of the world’s top DJs and radio stations. We also have an interesting and scaleable backend architecture which involves not only Ruby but lashings of Java, C and C++, with heavy usage of Redis and MongoDB.
We practice test-driven development, use Puppet to automate our server configuration and live by the mantra of rapid deployment: join us, and you can expect to see your code being put through its paces by thousands of users - within hours (or quite possibly, minutes).
We would love to meet developers with:
- deep web development knowledge - most likely involving Ruby on Rails.
- a strongly test-driven approach to coding.
- a love for learning new skills and technologies, and the enthusiasm to break out of Ruby and try their hand at unfamiliar languages and frameworks.
- a driving passion not just for coding, but for audio, music and startups as well.
For the right person(s), we are able to offer:
- A competitive, full-time salary - negotiable dependant on experience.
- Meaningful stock options.
- Offices a stone’s throw from Old Street tube.
- The opportunity to take a leading, hands-on role in building an exciting and ambitious music company.
If the above interests you, or you’d like to discuss anything further, then we’d love to talk. Contact me: rob <somehow> mixlr.com.
RG Labs is hiring: http://www.rglabsinc.com/#jobs
We operate under the premise that the most important decisions we make are decisions about people (e.g., who to start a company with, who to hire, who to date/marry...) We also feel like the Web is in its infancy in terms of helping us to make better decisions based on data and that this space will explode in coming years.
We're planning to help detonate that explosion. :)
A few things about us:
- We have a long backlog of customers waiting to use our product when it launches and a big market in front of us.
- We're building an engineering-centric organization and working out of a cool work/live space in the Mission.
- We offer outstanding benefits, treat engineers and designers like the VIPs they are and value balance while at the same time working hard and passionately towards our goals.
- Our current stack includes Ruby, Rails, MySQL, Resque, and elasticsearch and we'll be diving in soon on Hadoop, graph databases/neo4j and a whole host of other fun stuff.
- We're also planning to contribute to open source as much as we can (e.g., https://github.com/rglabs/teleport).
- We're funded but also early in our lifecycle so it's a unique opportunity to be a major contributor and help to set the tone for the future for our company.
To hear more drop me a line directly at jon@rglabsinc.com or contact us via our website (http://www.rglabsinc.com). We'd love to tell you more.

Cake Health is looking for brilliant people to help us build a platform that can fix the U.S. health care system. We believe that your benefits and care options should be described in simple language, that you should always have immediate access to all of your data, and that you should always know what’s covered by your insurance.
Our team has built some great momentum in just the last ten months and the product is now open to the public. We've raised money from some of the top angels and funds in Silicon Valley, and have been featured in Forbes, Wired, TechCrunch, Business Insider, and the Financial Times, to name a few.
We have a big vision for where Cake Health can go from here, which is why we're looking to build our team. You will be a critical team member that will have significant responsibility. You are bright, hard-working and resourceful, and most importantly, you are excited by the challenges and opportunity for an early-stage startup to change the world.

Factual aims to be the place where people meet to share, improve, and mash-up data. Our vision is to be an awesome and affordable data provider, so that big companies, startups, and developers can focus on innovation instead of data acquisition.
We have a terrific team that is still fairly small, and an incredible CEO (he was the co-founder of Applied Semantics, which was sold to Google and became AdSense). Last year we raised a Series A from Andreessen-Horowitz, and our customers and partners include Facebook, Loopt, SimpleGeo, and Newsweek. We have lots of challenging problems to work on at all layers of the stack: data cleaning and canonicalization, deduping, storage, serving, APIs, etc. If you love data, Factual is the place to be.
We currently have about half a dozen job openings, from data engineering to software engineering to system administration. For the software engineering position, you would ideally know Java, Clojure, and/or Ruby, and you'll get bonus points for experience with machine learning, NoSQL, algorithms, infrastructure, and/or Hadoop.
If you're interested in the Bay Area office, it's just starting up, so you'd have a significant influence on the culture there.

Suitable Technologies is a startup working to create an innovative new product for something called "remote presence." (Another common term is "robotic telepresence.")
Our first product, in development now, is similar to video chat on a computer you can drive around. Unlike videoconferencing, you’re not stuck to a wall or desk. It becomes your physical presence, anywhere in the world, with the freedom to move and interact with people as if you were there. Our technology has already been seen by millions of people, and we think the potential impact is substantial.
We're looking for great engineers and designers. We need help in C++, multimedia, test and verification, web frontend and backend, UI/UX design, electrical, networking, and more. We think this could be a unique opportunity for someone with experience in web or mobile to work on something a little different.
We have funding, offer competitive compensation and benefits, and provide perks such as food and ping pong.
Candidates must be authorized to work in the U.S.

CDD is growing and financially stable. Our software helps scientists manage, analyze and collaborate around their drug discovery data (chemistry and biology). We are are in a great position to support the evolution towards more collaboration, specialization and distribution in a market that has been historically closed and secretive. The model has been successful with academic labs, small biotech startups and very large collaborations (like the Gates foundation TB initiative or MM4TB in Europe). We are now gaining some traction with government agencies and the big pharmaceuticals.
I am hiring a full-stack software developer (https://www.collaborativedrug.com/pages/employment#h-1). As one of three developers, you need to be comfortable working or interested in building expertise at every level of the stack. Experience or interest in system administration and operations is nice to have though not required. We have many projects involving data visualization, data processing, scaling, security, privacy and other software challenges to make our scientific application collaborative, engaging and rewarding.
It is perfectly OK if you do not have experience with any of the languages or technologies we currently use (Rails/Ruby/JS/MySQL/Solr...) as long as you can learn those quickly. CDD is a great place if you want to have a lot of impact and like to take on projects and responsibilities.
If you are interested, contact work@collaborativedrug.com, you will get an answer from one of the developers (we do not have recruiters or HRs).
The most dangerous labor of all was the twelfth and final mission. Eurystheus ordered Hercules to kidnap the beast called Cerberus who guards the gates of hell - the brazed voiced hound of Hades and a monster not to be overcome and that may not be described, who eats raw flesh, fifty headed, relentless and strong. Near the gates of Acheron, a weaponless Hercules found the beast waiting for him. He resembled a retailer’s point of sale system.
You are a Hercules incarnate. Your weapons will include CoffeeScript, Ruby, JVM, Mac/Win/Lin[1], iOS, Android, maybe even a little C. Help us crush the mediocre POS industry incumbents. Multiple headed beasts, they are tired, decadent organizations and veritable deserts upon which the seeds of innovation and creativity find no purchase.
ShopKeep is fixing point of sale and becoming the “last mile” for local. A profoundly disruptive solution, we have established a beachhead in a sector in dire need of innovation. A well funded NYC based startup, we are fixing technology depressed, mind numbingly overpriced, and overly complex POS solutions and making them less expensive and highly customizable for both very large and very small customers.
Help us as we take this battle to the next level. You will lead the development of our products. Your releases will immediately be running[2] in thousands of actual brick-and-mortar stores. Like this one http://bit.ly/tEn61i. And this one http://bit.ly/w1n3vc
Contact jasonrichelson on github or david@shopkeep.com for more info...
[1]Don't worry, the Mac/Win/Lin registers consist almost entirely of cross-platform code [2]CI + better auto-updating than Chrome!
We're looking for developers and development managers.
The AWS Relational Database Service is one of the fastest-growing AWS businesses, providing super-simple provisioning and management for databases in the cloud. Customers can set up a new database with just a few clicks, and complex administrative tasks like scaling, fail-over, and monitoring are all reliably handled by our control systems.
Providing such simplified management for customers comes with the challenge of building sophisticated and reliable control systems. We work on many hard problems: high-performance online transaction processing; partitioned,replicated, real-time, in-memory processing; and large-scale, high-throughput batch jobs. We not only work on deep technical problems, but also use a wide array of technologies, ranging from the various database engines we support(MySQL and Oracle currently) to just about every other AWS service, and many open-source components.
Please email a resume to malleta at amazon.com if you're interested.
Lucidmedia Networks - http://www.lucidmedia.com
Internet ad network startup looking primarily for Java developers (experience with SQL and front-end web experience would be great too). The Internet advertising industry is quite complex behind the scenes and somewhat parallels the structure of the financial markets. We are analogous to a high frequency trading firm, buying page views to serve ads in real-time on exchanges like that of Google or Yahoo. Our server software runs on Spring, MySQL, Redis, and AWS at a glance. We handle at least a billion page impressions a day. Big data, big throughput. Small yet experienced team, catered lunches _everyday_, your choice of Mac or PC (dev team is almost all Mac now), good benefits. Our office has superhero posters all over the walls.

I actually got hired through a HN "Who is Hiring" thread. These things do work!
Here's what the company says:
Paylogic is an extensive Internet application that has to meet the highest standards regarding scalability, availability and security. We always have room for skilled and passionate software developers that want to work with cutting edge Internet technologies in a highly demanding environment and with some of the best Python developers around. Sharing knowledge and having fun are important qualifications of the Paylogic culture!
And here's what I, as an Architect and former developer there, say:
In the dev team we are driven, nonconformist and imaginative. You don't need to be an expert in Python/Django/SQLAlchemy, but the more you know the better.
It's a very nice place to work. Work is interesting, and if you like challenges, you won't be bored. There is no excessive pressure and extra hours are something rare.
E-mail: oscar.vilaplana@paylogic.eu
I obviously never worked for the company, but the interview process was really interesting (also professional) and it seems like they really care about who they hire. Thumbs up for that.
We are a fully-funded startup with a major paying customer, building a web-based service for analyzing and searching code. You will be in charge of building a large, distributed computing system for parsing and indexing code for our search engine. We've been creating the code analysis tools for existing customers, and we need you to build the automation framework to help us scale. We are building something really uncommon for a HN hiring thread, so contact me even if you're just curious!
We're solving problems that will have a major impact on the software industry. For example, one goal is that independent, open-source authors have a way to get paid for their work.
You'll team up with us to implement solutions to some challenging problems. (But don't worry, you don't already need to be an expert at all of these).
* Nearest-neighbor search in high dimension (or knowing how to
avoid this by projecting to a lower dimension)
* Classifying code by various metrics (structural flowgraph analysis,
symbol sequences and frequency, etc.)
* Map/reduce deconstruction of complex queries
* Distributed computing design, cluster management, software deployment,
load balancing
You need to understand distributed computing, fault detection and error recovery, messaging, etc. An interest (but not expertise) in low-level details like compilers, operating systems, and reverse-engineering is a good plus.
We have much more details and contact info here:

If you have any questions, you can also just email me at the address in my profile. Thanks!
QLabs
We're a new type of in-house incubator: we prototype startups by building and launching an MVP every 6-8 weeks. This is like startup boot-camp. Come hack with us on amazing projects, learn everything there is to know about building and launching products and starting companies, all without the painful early-startup salary.
We take an aggressive approach to learning and inspiration. Example: six weeks ago, our team spent the day at MIT's Media Lab, where we learned about biomechatronics, fluid interfaces, and more. Even though our primary tool is Rails, half of us just learned nodejs for a two-week 'sprint project'.
The lab started in February of this year, and now has five awesome developers (hailing from Columbia, Disney Imagineering, ITP, NYC Resistor, and more). We're looking to fill position #6.
Show us your projects: we love to see an entrepreneurial streak and a diversity of experience.
Email me at rw@rwinslow.com if this appeals to you!

My story - moved from Atlanta all the way out to Santa Monica after stopping by the TrueCar booth at PyCon 2011. I started here two months ago and have absolutely loved it. I'm working with a great team that knows how to develop software and for management who seems to "get it" with regards to software developers.
We're all in open workspaces that are just blocks from the beach. My building has a view of the ocean (http://picplz.com/user/dabent/pic/tpc4v/). TrueCar has great benefits, including company equity, 100% paid family medical, dental, vision, and a healthy 401k. They also offer gym membership reimbursement ($50 a month), 12 holidays, career training, 3 weeks PTO and have a kitchen stocked with fruit, snacks and such. I've honestly never had a job this good. We're also making money and recently got some really solid investment (http://techcrunch.com/2011/09/07/car-price-comparison-compan...).

We make the Nest Learning Thermostat.
Nest is a fantastic company, a great group of people, and a dream product (IMO).
We're looking for hardware and software engineers; developers, testers, and project and program managers. Web server, web client, firmware, algorithms, mobile, analog hardware, RF hardware—we had an amazing launch and now we're hiring across the company.
Nest Labs is a mile from California Ave. and the Caltrain. There's bikes at work, taco truck on Tuesday, and we're within running distance of the Stanford Dish. We work and play hard; we're passionate about what we do. Sound like you?

Ringio ( http://www.ringio.com ) - Full Time
Ringio provides internet phone service to small businesses to improve the quality of their phone interactions. We're looking for a few great software engineers to help take our product to the next level. If you're interested (or know someone who is), read more and give us your info at http://ringio.wufoo.com/forms/ringio-software-engineer/ or email nick AT ringio.com
Major areas of development focus:
* Modern HTML Applications - We’re very excited about the JavaScript frameworks that have grown in popularity the last few years (like Backbone.js, ExtJS, or SproutCore). We’re interested in using web technologies for our mobile and desktop applications, so if you’re experienced with (or just interested in) JavaScript, CoffeeScript, SCSS, WebSockets, or BOSH, there’s a lot of research and development to be done.
* Voice Technology - All calls using Ringio run through our voice systems to enable things like on-hold music, call screening, and transfers. We have a lot of new voice functionality that we’d like to build, as well as technology we’d like to integrate. This is fairly unique to our industry and involves some interesting timing, concurrency, and state management problems.
* API Development - Integration with CRM systems and reselling partners requires APIs for large pieces of our platform. We need help expanding our APIs, making sure they’re usable and secure, and testing that they’re working correctly.
We’re Looking For People Who Are:
* Smart software developers
* Familiar with object oriented programming. We use Grails and Java for our major systems. Grails, Groovy, or Java experience isn’t required, but you’ll be expected to get up to speed quickly.
* Familiar with Unix/Linux command-line systems. Logging into a Linux server to count the number of ERROR lines in a log file grouped by hour wouldn’t be difficult for you.
* Excited about joining a startup
* Authorized to work in the US
* Able to work from our McLean, VA office (flexibility to work from home sometimes, but most time will be at the office)
If you're interested, check out http://ringio.wufoo.com/forms/ringio-software-engineer/ or email nick AT ringio.com

I am the founder of Cinecandy, the world's first Movie Studio As A Service (MSAAS, for cute). I've spent the past year solo and I am looking for a programmer and a designer.
Think of what moviemaking is: a writer, a director, some actors, a post production crew, and ultimately distribution. If you think which parts of moviemaking have been disrupted by technology, really only distribution has. The creation of movies, however, has not!
My vision is to completely automate the moviemaking process, from scripting, to directing, acting, post-production, and distribution. And Cinecandy will make it so easy that anyone can do it, and do it with their friends.
The first step in achieving that vision is a tool that will let people easily create group videos with their friends for special occasions. The example I like to use is the video shown at a wedding by the Best Man while he gives a speech - lots of well-wishing from friends and family in the video.
Because this initial set of users will show their videos in public, they are willing to pay for an automatically produced video. More if it's professionally edited.
I sold my last startup (www.gamemaki.com) and had a major flop with an app earlier this year:

But I ship product and this one has me pretty stoked. More about me in my HN profile. Do reach out - I love talking about my baby!

We want a developer who will soak up business/domain knowledge just as quickly and eagerly as she/he soaks up technical knowledge.
90% of our code has .NET at the heart of it, but don’t sweat it if you are stronger in Java than C#, or MySQL rather than Sql Server. We believe that if you’re a software engineer and you’re smart then you’re capable of learning new languages and technologies. Our applications run the gamut from Winforms to web/MVC to Silverlight to WCF to WPF.

We help people who live or work near each other organize into groups, which buy directly from wholesale natural food distributors and farmers.

We're an early-stage startup, and we currently have a working product with passionate customers and recurring revenue. We are based in San Francisco, CA but launched our pilot program with a partner in New York state; accordingly, we're in the process of establishing an East Coast office in upstate New York.

The most dangerous labor of all was the twelfth and final mission. Eurystheus ordered Hercules to kidnap the beast called Cerberus who guards the gates of hell - the brazed voiced hound of Hades and a monster not to be overcome and that may not be described, who eats raw flesh, fifty headed, relentless and strong. Near the gates of Acheron, a weaponless Hercules found the beast waiting for him. He resembled a retailer’s point of sale system.
You are a Hercules incarnate. Your weapons will include CoffeeScript, Ruby, JVM, Mac/Win/Lin[1], iOS, Android, maybe even a little C. Help us crush the mediocre POS industry incumbents. Multiple headed beasts, they are tired, decadent organizations and veritable deserts upon which the seeds of innovation and creativity find no purchase.
ShopKeep is fixing point of sale and becoming the “last mile” for local. A profoundly disruptive solution, we have established a beachhead in a sector in dire need of innovation. A well funded NYC based startup, we are fixing technology depressed, mind numbingly overpriced, and overly complex POS solutions and making them less expensive and highly customizable for both very large and very small customers.
Help us as we take this battle to the next level. You will lead the development of our products. Your releases will immediately be running[2] in thousands of actual brick-and-mortar stores. Like this one http://bit.ly/tEn61i. And this one http://bit.ly/w1n3vc

I've got a good breadth of experience and honestly believe that employees are treated really well here. There's a good focus on work-life-balance, weekly paid lunch, lots of free snacks, a bottomless ice cream fridge (careful ... it's delicious and really tempting!)
Also - steps from Yonge & Bloor station so pretty good for a commuter (I guess union might be a touch better but oh well).
Any questions, email me and I'll tell you all about it. I can even pass your resume on to HR for you.
The interview had been scheduled for a week at that point. After arriving, the person I was supposed to be interviewing with comes out late and tells me they already filled the position a week prior and didn't bother to tell me.
Turns out they're still hiring for that position? Lying to prospective employees isn't nice.
I've chatted with Alex a couple times and he is a good guy, so take my good data point with the bad.
Calling someone in for an interview, then filling it and not telling that person is a douche move.

FathomDB needs you to build the next-generation relational database. Fully buzzword-compliant: distributed, fault-tolerant and cloud-ready; more importantly a great engineering project to do the first real redesign of the database since the mainframe. Your day-to-day is as much research as it is coding, as you'll be implementing things that have never been built that way before, that you probably invented over a team brainstorming session in the morning, maybe even using some insight you gained from your dreams the night before.
We work in C++(0x); you'll likely be experienced in C++ or C and an object-orientated language but what's more important is that you want to think and work where there are no signposts, and that you're comfortable doing so. Experience with distributed systems or databases is a positive indicator, but I'll read and reply to every application to hn.jobs@fathomdb.com

Yammer is an awesome tech startup masquerading as an enterprise software vendor. We're building an enterprise social network (an internal communication and collaboration tool. Like Facebook.) and we need your help.

At Ness we're building a personalized search engine which combines personal data about an individual along with signals from their social graph and delivers uniquely tailored results for each query. Our first product focuses on restaurants and has been featured in the App Store since our launch 8 weeks ago.
Behind the scenes we're combining collaborative filtering and other forms of machine learning with traditional information retrieval to predict what users will like, explain our prediction to users, and rank what they will want to do in the moment.
Doing all this requires well architected, scalable systems for pushing lots of data and answering queries with minimal latency.
I know this is only the broadest possible overview and I'd be happy to talk if you'd like to learn more. My email is in my profile.

We're hiring front-end and back-end engineers, plus an SRE (think: ops guy who gets to write production code) and a designer.
Right now, we help companies track and analyze the way their content spreads over social media, and how that converts into pageviews and dollar sales. Our next phase -- the stuff the new hires will be working on -- is to move beyond merely reporting what's happening into making sense of it, and making actionable predictions based on it. That means event detection and machine learning on big, messy, real-world data sets.
Because this is all new dev, we are language and technology agnostic. If you think you can solve these problems, we'll let you pick the best tools for the job. We're looking for curiosity, enthusiasm, and a track record -- you know, "smart and gets things done" :-)

Check us out: Kontagent.com/careers
We provide deep social data pattern visualization and analysis that delivers actionable insights via an on-demand service. Kontagent tracks more than 1,000 social applications, over 150 million monthly active users, and in excess of 15,000 messages every second.

At Tribal Crossing we work on creating games with deep story lines and engaging characters, something missing from most Facebook games today. Tribal Crossing is looking for a strong software engineer to lead the future development of our backend game engine, refine our custom system for expressing game logic and flow, and develop new games from the planning stage to post-launch.
What we're NOT:
* We're NOT working in a sweatshop making clones of Zynga games
* We're NOT making reskins of Evony, Kingdoms of Camelot, Atlantis, etc
* We're NOT letting metrics rule our lives (Star Wars wasn't created through metrics)
What we ARE:
* We ARE making games that are focused on delivering amazing story lines
* We ARE creating characters that players will care about
* We ARE building tools that will allow allow content creators to do 1 and 2
Why You Should Apply:
* TECHNOLOGY: We embrace cutting edge technology if it saves us time in the long run. Ask us about how we wrote our own DSL that in turn generates code for serializing game data and defining API routes. Or perhaps watch our webinar with Membase about how we are able to support millions of users with NO sysadmin and a tiny team. Bigger doesn't always mean better, if you know how to use the right tools.
* INNOVATION: We have built a wide range of tools and processes that greatly reduce both low level work and endless cross-functional meetings. By making sure team members are unblocked and focused on high value activities, we're able to spend more time on adding innovation to our games.
* IMPACT: We've signed some long term deals with publishers that want to distribute our games on the web and mobile platforms. We are looking for folks that want to join on this initial traction and help take it to the next level. We will be asking for your opinion so be ready to have one.
If that sounds interesting, you should apply here: http://www.tribalcrossing.com/jobs/

I'm a developer/entrepreneur looking for help from a talented intern in building an online pencil-and-paper-style RPG. I also have a handful of other projects that you may end up working on. US timezones preferred. I'll be laying out the high-level architecture, you'll be working with one other part time entry level developer to fill in the pieces.
Required familiarity or experience: HTML, JavaScript (mostly jQuery), Java, Strong google-fu, Google AppEngine, Google Web Toolkit, GWT-Platform, Pencil and paper RPGs, specifically Dungeons and Dragons 3.5
Bonus round: Netbeans, Android/iOS, Git or Subversion
Compensation: You'll be a 1099 contractor, paid hourly at $7.25/hr, up to 70 hours per month (read: part time), but possibly less.
Email to jeff@jeffrodriguez.com, mention "Zero One Intern" in the subject: Resume, Any projects you're involved in, open source or otherwise. Social profile URLs (Github, Stack Overflow, FB, G+, twitter). Any other information you think might be relevant.
Thanks!
For a student level position with significant flexibility in working hours and 100% remote, I and those I've spoken to think that's reasonable.
Did you misunderstand the skill level I was looking for, or do you disagree?
As far as paying $7.25 an hour, this is why I take offense to it. If I were to get a minimum-wage job at McDonald's, I may technically make the same wage before taxes, but once taxes are due, the 1099 worker actually takes home less because he has to pay the employer's side of the taxes as well.
I think what you really want, is an entry-level worker. If you really do want a student level person, with little experience, that's just looking to get their foot in the door as a programmer, you might be able to get someone at $10-15 an hour on craigslist.
Come work with me in the product department in a (very) fast growing company.

Small, four-person creative/interactive team at EPB (electric power & fiber optics internet/tv/phone service provider). We're looking for our 5th member.
We have a great working environment:
* The only employees who aren't stuck in cubicles * Wear what you want (I've worn shorts & flip-flops the last 5 mos) * Top-of-the-line hardware--no cheap stuff * Really smart, creative team members who want to build great products
Current team: * 1 creative director/designer * 1 front-end UI/UX developer (who happens to be a jQuery core dev) * 1 back-end developer (who does a lot more than sling code) * Me--team lead, interactive director, co-developer, meeting-goer, idea-seller
We maintain and build apps/modules for the company's public sites, which presently are Python/Django-based. We've built a few internal apps--relied upon daily for core business operations--in Ruby. We also have a couple random things written in Haskell & Scala which may or may not stick around. We are not married to any single language or platform.
We need a great developer comfortable and familiar with Python/Django, Ruby, and Objective-C/iOS above all things. We have a number of interesting projects in the works for each of these platforms. If you are into Android development, that could work, too.
We work hard at securing future interesting product work for the team--mobile apps, internal products, MediaRoom application development (for set top boxes), etc.
We're looking for a girl or guy who is interested in learning and building great products on any platform, who cares about delivering a fantastic experience for customers and employees alike. Someone capable of self-management, who has opinions on the right way to do things. We collaborate on everything, and are not afraid to hash something out for two hours until we believe we've got it right. We want you to be that kind of person, too.
We're the company's first and only creative/interactive team, and we enjoy autonomy in deciding our platforms, languages, technology, etc. We have no overlords who tell us how to do our jobs. You'll find yourself asked to be part of our decision-making on new products.
If any of this sounds interesting, we'd love to talk with you (and will probably ask you to meet up for lunch or something).

---------------
FRONT-END
We’re looking for someone who can become our resident master of HTML, CSS, and JavaScript; essentially you will lord over all things front-end. The position itself is somewhat open-ended, in that we would love to shape the specific role to accommodate your strengths and interests, within reason.

* work with the back-end engineering team to create scalable and responsive
products that entice end-users to make energy efficient purchases
* create beautiful, cutting edge UIs that deliver great user experience to both
consumer and enterprise users
* build out our UI framework
* help build a flexible A/B test framework
* be a HTML/CSS/JavaScript resource to our design and back-end engineering teams

BACK-END
As a back-end generalist, you will work all across our platform on a variety of interesting problems ranging from data mining and search relevance to scaling and architecture. If you’re really smart, love to play around with the kinds of data retrieval/manipulation challenges that make mere mortals weep, love architecting clever solutions to all manners of design challenges, and would like to define your role based on your strengths in this arena, you are going to love this job. Essentially, we’re still building out big pieces of our platform, and this could be an awesome opportunity to create something truly meaningful and interesting. To give you an idea of the kinds of things we’re working on in this realm, take a look at the list below:
* out of many potential data sets, which should we display and what order
should we display them in?
* doing the above really, really fast
* architecting and scaling a reporting and analytics system to deliver fast
and reliable numbers to drive decisions both internally and for our partners
* developing heuristics to do fuzzy data matching between data sets with
different structures and formats
* feature design, including deciding the depth of customization and balancing
tradeoffs of complexity, responsiveness, flexibility in the future, and
administrative overhead
* database design, including schema, indexes, query optimization, partitioning,
and database abstraction
* building levels of caching to allow us to scale, including investigation of
different caching options and subsequent implementation of caching
technologies
* building platform infrastructure, which can include A/B testing, reporting,
APIs, etc
---------------
COMPENSATION & BENEFITS
* Salary commensurate with experience
* Meaningful equity stake in the company
* Benefits (medical, dental, vision)
