View on HN

Month after month, the same companies list the same opening here (with probably 30% shift.) I would love to know if the companies that relist aren't getting applicants, aren't getting the right applicants, have a high turnover or are (hopefully) just continuing to grow.

Also, are any HNers getting hired from these threads? Success stories are the most needed ingredient to remind everyone that hiring is happening.

Those companies are "permanently hiring". They're not trying to fill specific positions, but rather trying to skim interesting candidates.

I can only speak for the company I work for, but we are growing so fast that the company has doubled in size in the last year or so.

We've got real revenues and growth in traffic to our main site and our partner sites. Also, we now power Yahoo! Autos, which will give us another big boost in traffic and revenue.

That's the case for Factual. We have perma-openings for software engineers and are always trying to find additional great people to work with.

I've been posting to HN monthly for about a year. I get responses from 2-10 HNers each month and several have been hired at Factual. About 20% of our technical hires in 2011 were people who came from HN.

I wondered about whether a similar post each month would be useful. I've been surprised in two ways: 1) The number of applicants has generally gone up each month, not down and 2) almost every month, one or two of the people responding say something like "I've seen your post several times now and have been meaning to reply. Today, I finally decided to do it."

I guess what I'm saying is that my experience with posting jobs to HN has been great, and posting (almost) the same content each month seems effective.

Our experience at MyEnergy has been nearly identical in both absolute numbers and proportions.

Folks who frequent HN tend to be "our kind of people," so I make it a priority that somebody from the team posts the latest every first of the month.

Avenue of the stars seems like a really bad location to me. Poor access via public transit and awful commute times.

That location has a lot of upsides for us: most of the employees live within 3-4 miles of there, rent is affordable, and our building is next door to a large mall with lots of lunch options. For those who live further away, commutes are made easier by letting people set their working hours and work from home as necessary.

Public transit in LA is poor, so can't disagree with you there.

My company hired someone from one of these threads - he is still with us and doing well. I stopped posting for a few months.

I posted again today, hopefully we'll hire someone else.

I thought you we're someone from our company - exact same thing happened to us!

Including interns, 2/3 of our dev hires at HotPads in 2011 came to us from these HN posts.

My employer (LucidMedia Networks) still is growing so I keep posting. Simple as that.

I'm not sure how many applicants apply to the companies listed, but I think our application quantity might be lower than average. Could be location (not SF, NYC, Boston), tech stack, low profile . . . not sure. There isn't feedback on the posts. Oddly, we also sometimes get posts from HNers outside the US, but we never advertise for them.

We've hired a full-time dev (myself) and an intern who just started recently from the pool of HNers. These things do work (and I state this in the post monthly).

As the aforementioned intern I'd like to second this!

I landed an interview with a company from one of these threads for an internship they were not advertising. It was a good experience, but in the end I was told that they did not have anything for me. It would have been my first development job and I suspect that they were too early stage to take on someone that was completely entry level like me. And it appears that they're still looking.

We're simply looking for more people and our bar is high enough that we don't always find the right people.

  Also, are any HNers getting hired from these threads?

I've been posting to some of these threads occasionally, nothing ever happend. While I guess some of us are getting gigs out of it, I believe the majority probably don't. On the other hand, my skillset (doing PHP apps, but not a web designer) is not in demand to be fair.

Actually, I did get hired thanks to the Nov 2011 HN thread - one post in particular caught my eye and while I initially just asked for more details, I ended up starting my new position there in December.

Obligatory segue: incidentally, OkCupid Labs (San Francisco, CA) is still growing and looking to hire in a few areas, including design (visual, UX, and/or UI welcome), front-end dev, and senior software engineering. I don't know much about the last one, but for more info on the first two, you can ping me via chang at okcupidlabs. Or the jobs page works too: http://jobs.okcupidlabs.com/.

I was hired from a post on here in October 2010 for a company in Atlanta. I'm still there, and I've posted a few "we're hiring" posts since then (no hires yet).

I'm in Atlanta and looking for work, mind showing me the positions you're hiring for?

We post on most of these threads and our batting average for hiring from them is MLB respectable. We have below-average turnover; we're just growing. Every single thread we've posted on has introduced us to candidates we were thrilled to talk to.

HN is our single best hiring vector, both in quantity and quality.

I think you can safely assume that people are getting hired from these threads.

(I think posting the job thread on weekends is counterproductive and don't post in those months).

I got an offer (well, sort of a [paid] trial period type offer, but I believe it was a good fit for both parties) from a company that posted here a few months ago. I ended up declining it and taking a safer option. Kind of regret not taking that offer, actually.

AcademicWorks has hired two people from posting on HN. We consistently find our best candidates from these threads. I have a memo to post at the first of every month, because we are always looking for talented engineers.

100% have hired people through these. The problem is "aren't getting the right applicants" pretty much entirely.

Khan Academy posts here every month because we're growing. I was hired after responding to a post on HN, and since then we've hired roughly 1 full time developer or designer per month. See this months post for more details: http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=3413910

Success story: I met someone recently who found her new job at OKCupid Labs from last last month's HN Who's Hiring thread. (She'd also met her husband on OKCupid, so that helped.)

As a comparison, between Dribbble's (a design-specific community) job board and HN, all of the best designer candidates so far have come from HN.

That was me, heh. I responded earlier to this thread as well!

I'm a long time reader but don't post much. I was hired in NYC through a post on the Oct 2011 thread. Obviously I'd rate myself as amazing. The job isn't bad either hehe.

Sadly, I've only had one response from posting here (for Phunware, Inc.). Initially, my desire was that we hire solely from HN, but the reality hasn't lined up with that ideal.

Ridejoy is a community marketplace for rides (YC S11)

We love well-designed experiences, we have a rapidly growing community that loves us back (and loves telling us so), and we're building a marketplace for everyone who's ever needed to get somewhere.

http://www.ridejoy.com/jobs/

We've all been employees at early-stage, venture-backed startups. We know what it's like, so we're generous with the benefits and your equity. (Plus full salaries, of course.) We're well-funded by top-tier investors, and we do things like all-you-can-eat free food, and free tickets and transportation to Burning Man.

We have a tight-knit team and we're looking for people who we can develop a deep mutual trust with. This is not code for "the same as us"; we want to build a team that's more diverse than your typical startup. We understand that a great company and a great culture depends on far more than technical aptitude.

Details: Located in SF. We will happily pay for and help with relocation for the right candidate.

For designers: As the lead designer, you'll be working closely with two engineers who care deeply about the user experience of our product, and want to let you focus on what you do best.

The product is very early, so you'd be shaping it from the ground floor; we want someone to help us build a design culture from the very beginning. Like everyone else we work with, we want you to teach, and to be teachable.

For engineers: Our current stack is Ruby, Rails, Postgres, Coffeescript, Sass, and jQuery, and we're looking to expand into iOS and Android. It's not mandatory to know these coming in; passionate generalists who can learn quickly work too.

PSA: Refer someone we hire, and get a thousand bucks of collaborative consumption credit! You can pick from among Airbnb, Taskrabbit, Grubwithus, Getaround, RelayRides, Tutorspree, Skillshare, and Vayable. Link: http://www.ridejoy.com/jobs/

Pinterest is hiring engineers and product designers in Palo Alto, CA. (http://pinterest.com/about/careers/)

We are a very small team with a lot of interesting and creative challenges ahead of us! Pinterest already does billions of pageviews, has terabytes of interesting data to analyze, and is growing at 50% each month.

There are fascinating problems ahead of us, including search and recommendation algorithms, a developer api, internationalization, and a monetization platform will make using Pinterest better, not worse.

We care about creating a great place for people to do their very best work. We look for folks who are creative, humble, talented, and hard-working.

Will you'll be hiring interns for this summer?

Ashburn, VA/Heidelberg, Germany

Scientific Software Developer

http://hci.iwr.uni-heidelberg.de/Jobs/

Ilastik (http://ilastik.org) is a collaborative open-source project with the aim of providing a scalable image analysis platform for the neurosciences and beyond. Current ilastik development seeks to bring the power of interactive machine learning to very large data sets.

Janelia Farm (http://www.janelia.org), one of the premier centers for biomedical research worldwide, is funding a Scientific Software Developer (Janelia Farm Research Campus, Ashburn, VA with visits to Heidelberg University, Germany) to reach that goal quickly. Tasks include the refinement of the architecture, the integration with existing tools and the design of a graphical user interface for handling of very large microscopic data sets using image analysis and machine learning algorithms. The software developer will also support proof-of-principle studies on pioneering applications from the neurosciences, and liaise between experts at Janelia Farm and ilastik core developers at the University of Heidelberg.

The position requires a strong background in C++, experience in software engineering applied to large projects, and the skills to integrate existing algorithms and functionality into a unifying biomedical processing framework. Experience with python, Qt, numpy, scipy and scientific parallel programming is a plus. Good communication skills are essential to make for good cooperation both with local experts and with other programmers working remotely. Salary is commensurate with prior experience and will be highly competitive for extremely well-matched candidates.

The principal work place is on the beautiful campus of Janelia Farm, with regular visits to Heidelberg. The successful candidate will be in a position to help shape a project that is becoming an enabling technology in one of the most interesting fields conceivable: the deciphering of the inner workings of the brain.

I'm unaffiliated with Janelia, but I did interview for grad school there a few years ago.

Janelia is basically heaven for neuroscience research. I know a lot of people who would give their left leg to work at Janelia as a scientist. There is some seriously cool research going on there. Janelia is also very interdisciplinary, from what I saw on my visit. Lots of CS people working with physicists working with neuroscientists.

The campus is absolutely gorgeous too.

For what it's worth (and as far as I'm aware), H1B visas are now capped (i.e. full) until October 1st, 2012 - applications are accepted from April 1st - so there may not be much sense in companies including the keyword "H1B" as requested, unless they're looking to fill a roll later in the year..

Except H1B is used as a generic term to indicate willingness to sponsor visa applications, including types other than H1B visas (such a TN1 for Mexican and Canadians), so please, keep including it.

Oh, didn't think about that. Fair play!

That and existing H1B transfers from one employer to another are not affected by the cap.

There's also E-3s for Australian citizens, which I only just found out about! Probably about the only good thing about the US-Australian FTA :P

Where do I get similar info about capacity for other types of visas?

Your immigration attorney.

Sorry, not trying to be snarky but as someone working on a visa myself, if you need a visa and you work in tech then it pays to spend the ~$200 or so initial consultation fee to speak to an immigration lawyer who can brief you on your options.

Even if your future-employer will handle the immigration work (eg on an H1b), it still pays to retain your own immigration council because their lawyer is only to going to look out for their interests.

not to mention an accountant..taxes can be a pain.

- 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.

DuckDuckGo is hiring (albeit slowly): http://help.duckduckgo.com/customer/portal/articles/216387

We have an office in Paoli, PA though remote is OK depending on the relationship. We have people now across the world. We also welcome Philly-area interns. H1B is also OK.

I suppose friction is part of the point with inbound hiring, but it is rather frustrating trying to find an email; should I use the DDG "Ask a question" form, the open@duckduckgo.com email, or are you guys just not interested in people you haven't already worked with?

yegg@duckduckgo.com and we are interested!

Mountain View - Khan Academy (full-timers and interns welcome year-round)

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.

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.

http://www.khanacademy.org/jobs

Are you guys doing anything with remote positions. I love what you guys are doing and would love to be a part of it, but I am bound to Florida. It's a long story but the tl;dr is my wife and I are my grandparents caretakers, so picking up roots is not possible.

We've been known to hire remotely for the right candidate. Might as well apply and see!

Hi kls where are you in Florida? We're in Miami and we're hiring.

Rob, I am in the Orlando area, if you guys would consider a semi remote position I would be interested, I could be onsite for a week a month or so. My contact info is in my profile. I have property in the keys and plan to relocate there at some point (after we build) which will be closer.

Wow this sounds amazing, I use Khan Academy on a daily basis. I'm actually writing my own education framework in Django that uses some of your APIs and videos. Are you guys looking for summer interns? I'm currently a college student studying Software Engineering in California. Keep up the great work : )

We most definitely are looking for summer interns! Please apply (http://www.khanacademy.org/jobs), or even contact me directly (email is in profile).

Are there any plans to hire a product team in the future? I'm very excited about the mission of Khan, but I'm no longer a dev.

Coursekit - Software Engineer

Coursekit is looking for more engineers to help bring the best possible online experience to education. If you've ever been forced to use a crappy piece of software because your teacher (or worse, your school) demanded it, you know the pain we're trying to solve. We launched our product for university courses recently, and the reaction has been awesome. (http://www.fastcodesign.com/1665657/coursekit-aims-to-overha...)

We are a small and young team, but we are well-funded and growing. We work mostly in/with Coffeescript, Python, node.js, Redis, and MySQL. We don't care whether you have tons of experience with these technologies, but if you're smart and learn fast, we'd love to talk.

We're also looking for a Front-end Engineer, who would be able to help set a standard for our HTML/CSS and help us build awesome experiences for students and teachers.

Reston, VA (west of Washington, DC) - FULL TIME, INTERN, CONTRACTOR (H1B if you're already in the US)

Lucidmedia Networks - http://www.lucidmedia.com

Internet ad network looking primarily for Java developers (experience with [My]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 about 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.

Contact me directly at sahil_lmn@yahoo.com.

From HN, we've hired an intern and full-time dev (me). These posts do work!

A lot of people think Splunk must be a terrible place to work at because they think it is an "enterprise" company. But the truth is, we have great jobs for a lot of people. Want to work on awesome visualizations for gigabytes and terabytes of data daily? We got it. Want to work on building a development platform for an extremely powerful data analysis tool? We got it.

I'm currently interviewing at Amazon, and I have no clue what department I'm interviewing for. I've heard hiring decisions are made strictly by the team that you'd be joining, so is this something I should know before going in for an on-site?

New York, NY - Software Engineer - Fulltime

Canvas (USV Funded) is looking for engineers #3 and #4 to join a small close team building the rich-media community platform of the future.

The job title says "Software Engineer" but really we're looking for "Software Entrepreneur" or a "Startup Engineer". Yes, your day job will be writing code. But that's the only similarity to a big company software job.

You'll be challenged to take big ideas and turn them into concrete testable hypotheses. Shipping a great feature is important, but positively changing user behavior is the ultimate success criteria. Built-to-spec takes a backseat to moves-the-metrics.

More details and how to apply http://canv.as/jobs

Austin, TX - BarZ Adventures. Software developer, Rails or iPhone. Android experience also welcome.

We're a small but profitable business that licenses software for making tour guides and visitor directories. The company was founded on sales of a specialized hardware device - still in use in many places, such as the Spy Museum in Washington, D.C. - but the company has now moved to producing white-label mobile apps for iOS and Android.

I'm currently running both the iPhone project and the Rails back-end myself, but it's too much to juggle with the growing business. Looking for someone to help out on either project, so I can focus on the other.

Contact evan.james@barzadventures.com.

Hi Evan, I am based in Singapore and can help with the iPhone part. I have developed two iPhone Applications so far.

Amsterdam, The Netherlands.

Booking.com is always on the lookout for good developers, DBA's and sysadmins on-site in the center of Amsterdam. I'm a developer there and relocated over there about a year ago and have been very happy with it. We have people from all over the world relocating to work with us and are very well set up to handle relocation / visa issues.

It's a rapidly growing company that represents the biggest chunk of the Priceline group of companies where problems that look relatively mundane on paper become much more interesting due to the scale and growth levels we're operating at.

We use Perl for almost everything with a MySQL backend and Git for development. We get our changes out really fast, it's rare for your code not to be on our live systems within hours of you pushing it.

We have a relatively flat hierarchy with minimum levels of bureaucracy since we're very data driven and have a clear goal: helping our customers. Everything we do is aimed at solving problems for our customers, if it doesn't help our customers we're not interested in doing it.

You don't have to know Perl in advance to be a developer there. We've hired people who've done C, Java etc. before.

I'd be happy to answer any questions at avarab@gmail.com and/or forward your resume. http://booking.com/jobs also has some good information.

ThinkNear - Software Engineer

ThinkNear is building the infrastructure to help usher in the post-PC era. We help the mobile app ecosystem thrive by enabling developers to make money from their apps, consumers to enjoy free experiences, and advertisers to reach relevant consumers in a privacy friendly way.

We are tackling hard and interesting technical challenges, creating massive opportunity, and having a ton of fun in the process. We’re always looking for ambitious, driven self-starters who want to be on the leading edge of developing technology.

We are looking for a top tier software engineer or chronically under-recognized hacker. Along the top of your resume, you could list 30-odd acronyms from SQL to XML and back through the JVM a dozen times, but hate the idea that that’s what companies will evaluate you on. You don’t code, you craft. Your solutions are as elegant as they are simple. You love getting that perfect solution that takes only 4 lines of code instead of an ungodly 6. You have experience building real products in the real world.

Final note: The Software Development Engineer position is for one of the first few engineers. You’ll be in a position to shape the direction of the code, the team, the product, and the company. We’re looking for people who are excited by that.

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, designers, testers, and more. We need help in C++, audio and video software and codecs, web frontend and backend, UI/UX design, electrical, and networking.

San Francisco, CA (SF/Mission)

RG Labs is hiring: http://www.rglabsinc.com/#jobs

It is our belief 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 with the detonation.

We have a long backlog of customers waiting to use our product when it launches (in Q1) 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. Our current stack includes Ruby, Rails, MySQL, Resque, and elasticsearch, etc. 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 really early so it's a unique opportunity to help us set the tone and to be a major contributor (not to mention, get a sizable option grant).

To hear more drop me a line directly at jon@rglabsinc.com or contact via our website. We'd love to share more with you.

Emcien, Atlanta, GA.

We're looking to hire two people to satisfy the following needs: Rails, sysadmin and C programmer.

We're a pattern analysis company based in Midtown, Atlanta. We've recently hired a sales team and we've got plenty of work to do.

Our apps are Rails-based, but are anything but typical. We do some computationally heavy stuff and basically use Rails apps as a presentation layer. We're usually dealing with huge datasets and need someone that has a strong sense of what Rails is doing "underneath." ActiveRecord behaves differently when you're dealing with 60,000+ records at a time.

We need a C programmer to back up our chief scientist. Operations research experience is a huge plus.

We use several AWS tools including EC2, S3, SNS, and RDS (We also use Heroku for several apps). We need someone to manage our EC2 environment. This probably wouldn't amount to a full-time responsibility, but we do need someone to "own" this aspect of our business. We'd like to have a C programmer + UNIX admin combo but if you can fill our Rails and sysadmin needs, that works too.

If you're interested, take a whack at our developer test and send us an email.

I got hired via HN a year ago and we do have a good number of engineers in the team who found Monetate through one of these threads.

We work in Python, but experience with the language is not a prerequisite. We have many interesting front end, scaling and big-data problems to solve. Monetate is a fun work place with an awesome culture and a big list of benefits. If you want to work with interesting people who are passionate about what they are doing, do check out our jobs page

A little late to the party. I blame the hangover I had yesterday :)

Social Tables (http://www.socialtables.com), a funded, DC-based startup is looking for a Senior Developer/VP of Engineering (employee #1, wahoo!).

If you immediately thought that this startup makes databases social, you're the kind of person we're looking for and you'll fit right in. Please read on :)

Social Tables is the seating plan platform for events. You know how weddings, galas and other large events have assigned seating? Well, the biggest PITA in planning these events is figuring out how to seat guests (it can take weeks). Our cloud-based software solves that problem.

Since launching in May 2011, we've seated 43k guests at 450 different events. We're expanding rapidly through big strategic partnerships and aggressive customer acquisition.

In this role, your responsibilities will be to lead product development of our next version. We prefer Rails but if PHP is your weapon of choice, that's cool. You should also be proficient in JavaScript since things will be a little heavier on the client-side going forward.

You must be a motivated self-starter who is energized by teamwork and loves to learn new things.

Traction aside, right now is the perfect time to join Social Tables and we would love to tell you why. In addition to competitive compensation, you will get serious equity (we agree with Naval in his recent post on this issue - http://startupboy.com/2011/12/13/why-you-cant-hire/).

San Francisco, CA. Full time.

We are looking for talented Software Developers.

The medical software industry is experiencing a revolution, and pMDsoft is looking for a Senior Software Design Engineer who has the talent and drive to change it forever. You'll have a huge impact on health care in America by using cutting edge technology to change the way that physicians practice medicine.

It's like a startup in that you'll wear many hats, have a lot of responsibility and be part of a small, highly-motivated team. It's not like a startup in that we make our own business decisions. We have a proven and profitable product, extremely happy customers and a team of people as talented as you are. We love what we do. We strive to work like a beautifully engineered German car: fast, efficient and fun.

As a Senior Software Design Engineer at pMDsoft, you're a technical leader in training. You've not only demonstrated engineering excellence, you've also been informally building management skills since you were in school by balancing multiple high-priority projects simultaneously. Your past accomplishments suggest that as the company continues to grow, you're ready to start mentoring others and eventually build and lead a team of developers.

Your programming work will focus on extending our Java/JSP Web application, with an emphasis on open source technologies like Linux, Apache, Tomcat, Struts, AJAX/Web Services and MySQL.

Pune, India. Full time.

Styloot is a search engine for fashion. Currently it's difficult for women to find the clothing they want online - it involves browsing many sites, it's unclear what to type into the search box, etc. We aim to make that process easy.

Currently we are 5 people on the tech side - myself (CTO), our CEO, a developer, and two designers, as well as 8 girls on the fashion side. Culturally we are pretty much a valley or NY startup - I'm a NY startup guy myself and I wouldn't work anyplace with big company culture.

We are looking for a junior programmer. There are a lot of things to do at styloot and we don't have time for all of them. We are looking for an entry level programmer to whom we can hand off the easy tasks. Web scraping is one of the biggies - we index a lot of sites and each site needs it's own scraper. Of course, if you can do more than just the easy tasks, that's even better.

If interested, send me an email. Contact info is in my profile. If you have code on github/bitbucket, you don't need to waste time writing a resume.

Academia.edu is a platform for academics to share research papers. The company's mission is to accelerate the world's research.

It's widely held that science is too closed, and too slow. We are trying to change that. We believe that faster sharing of research will lead to an acceleration in research innovation: faster innovation in medicine, biology, engineering, economics, and other fields. Faster sharing in biology and medicine, for example, could lead to cancer being solved 12 months before it otherwise would have been, which would lead to millions of lives being saved.

Academia.edu has over 850,000 registered users, and over 3 million monthly unique visitors. Both of these metrics tripled in 2011. Over 2,500 papers are added to the platform each day, and over 3,500 academics join each day.

We need talented engineers to come and help us accelerate the world's research. We believe that there is a chance to make a big impact.

We just raised $4.5 million from Spark Capital and True Ventures http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=3297812. Some of our angel investors include Mark Shuttleworth (founder of Ubuntu) and Rupert Pennant-Rea (Chairman of The Economist).

We have a strong engineering culture. We're a 6 person team based in downtown San Francisco. The site is Rails, and other technologies we use include PostgreSQL, Redis, Varnish, Solr, Memcached, Mongodb, Beanstalkd.

Familiarity with our technologies is a plus, but it's not essential. It's far more important that you are a quick learner who can pick up new technologies quickly. There is more information about the company on our hiring page, at http://academia.edu/hiring.

The kinds of things you would be working on include:

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

★ enhancing existing features (News Feed, Profile page, paper upload tools)

★ building back-end infrastructure to scale the site

What we're looking for are:

☀ 2+ years of web development experience

☀ Experience with the full engineering stack

☀ Passion for engineering

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. There is more information here http://academia.edu/hiring.

H1B candidates are very welcome. We will take care of the visa process.

If you are interested to learn more, please email Richard Price at richard [at] academia.edu

New York, NY

SCRUFF, one of the largest and fastest-growing gay social networks, is hiring a senior engineer for its New York office.

SCRUFF is not a traditional software startup - we think there are a few reasons why working at SCRUFF is a one-of-a-kind experience:

• You will get to make consumer software that lots of people use.

Consumer software is by far one of the most fun businesses to be in. Consumer software is easy to explain, you can share it immediately with your friends, and you get to apply both technical and design skills. Business-to-business software is well and good, but there's a reason why we aren't writing automated trading platforms for hedge funds :) SCRUFF has been fortunate to find a market that is both growing quickly and very excited about our product. When you come on board, the code you write will affect hundreds of thousands of guys every day.

• Our #1 priority for you is your professional development

Most startups want engineers to start producing shipping code on day one. We would much rather take the time to allow you to explore our codebase, do deep dives into the technologies we use, and ultimately write great production code in weeks or months. We feel mentorship is one of the most critical aspects of enjoying your job.

We also strive to practice good core software engineering principles, because we believe in the long-run it will make the code you write better, bring more benefits to our members, and be most helpful for you in your career. The ideal candidate should come in with a healthy ego and a positive attitude, be open to critical feedback, and be eager to develop more in the practice of professional software development.

• You will touch every piece of code we have.

Our engineering team is small. There are no client-side/server-side functional divides. You will be responsible for the servers (we have a lot). You will be responsible for the client (iOS and Android). Your brain will be stretched in new and confounding ways. But in the process you will build a set of skills that will form the core of all software innovation of the next 10 years. What we teach you at SCRUFF about mobile development will be like learning HTML in 1995 or GUI programming in 1985.

• Parties are our business, and now they're yours, too.

No, seriously. Lots of startups will talk about their Friday night beer busts, but at SCRUFF we take it to a new level. SCRUFF partners with promoters and events all across the world. As a SCRUFF team member, you will become part of the SCRUFF brand, and will have opportunities to represent us at events both locally and across the country.

• New York City.

SCRUFF is based in Manhattan, the most amazing city in the world. Everyone you've ever met will want to come and visit. Your other friends who work at banks will complain to you about their schedules while you are busy planning SCRUFF parties into your workday(night?) Startup networking events will be blocks away, every day. You'll have access to the most restaurants, the most culture, and an endless stream of new people to meet. We love New York, and think you will love it too.
