The Children's Hospital of Philadelphia
We're not technically a start-up, but our small group inside CHOP is striving to be a startup within a larger organization.
-----
We are seeking an experienced software development professional to join our small, highly focused, entrepreneurial R&D application development group within the Center for Biomedical Informatics (CBMi) at The Children's Hospital of Philadelphia. As a member of our team, your technical expertise can have an immediate impact on patient care through our mission to accelerate pediatric research with novel applications and data solutions. Furthermore, your work here has the potential to impact the future of healthcare through our research into software solutions supporting genome-enabled personalized medicine. Our research mission fosters an environment where creativity and exploration of new technologies are promoted and encouraged.
Likely candidates should have solid experience and working knowledge in three or more programming languages (Python, JavaScript, or Scala experience is highly desirable) and be comfortable with one or more relational database platforms.
Our dynamic academic research environment demands an individual with exceptional written and oral communication skills who can rapidly translate requirements from a variety of disciplines into intuitive, high quality software solutions that support our strategic vision.
Candidates with prior experience in the biomedical field, especially using highly complex genomic data and/or data from electronic health records are very desirable. Participation in one or more public open source projects is an added bonus.

There are many jobs open at Bloomberg, but I'm particularly looking for intelligent software engineers and UX professionals to work under the CTO and Infrastructure team in R&D. We do a huge variety of things and we like to run our teams with a startup results-driven feel.
We are primary consumers of billions of incoming pieces of data daily and redistribute it to over 180 countries on one of the largest private networks in the world, producing software which provides discovery, analytics, visualization and much more.
Contact me if you want to discuss at andrew@ishiboo.com.
If you want to chat in person, we are a sustaining sponsor of NYTM and are at all the meetups. I'll be at GothamJS and dotJS later this year. Also, Matt Turck @ Bloomberg Ventures runs the NY Data Business Meetup at our offices every month and I'm almost always there.
If you're debating reaching out about this role: DO IT.
Not all of it is going to be rewritten in .NET, and every year, more of the C++ guys die or retire, and more people quit for .NET, or something easier.
Maintenance may be a dirty word in some circles, but for me it's more like an endless confusing puzzle, and stream of opportunities to make things better.
This role isn't that.
The difference here is akin to the difference between being an ASP.NET web developer at an insurance firm (boring job) and being on the Windows kernel team (not boring job).
One thing you'd really want to understand about Bloomberg: unlike most companies in finance, regardless of how much OCaml or Haskell they're allegedly using, Bloomberg is a technology firm. Enterprise/line-of-business development jobs have a bad reputation in large part because they are hosted by companies that aren't about technology. That's not BB. Yes, BB deals in quotes and market data where Google deals in web pages... but the distinctions start to end not far past that.
Andrew can do a better job talking up the role than I can; I just know a couple people who work in his group, have heard the war stories, and it's really pretty awesome.
Lore re-imagined what a class should look like online. We give instructors and students amazingly designed tools to manage their courses – calendaring, file management – and we make it unbelievably easy to interact with one another.
Lore is looking for a super-sharp, ambitious engineer who’s able to work across the stack. We’re a passionate team building the world’s largest learning community. You’re a badass coder who loves understanding the whole stack, and jumps on anything – from simple CSS to API performance. Together we will make education more relevant, engaging, and accessible.
Everyone at Lore is an artist – from customer service to engineering to user interface design. Changing the way people learn is no small task. To make it happen we need the most creative, dedicated, and detail-minded people on the planet.
Lore is built primarily in Python (using Flask) and CoffeeScript. Along the way, we also use MySQL, Redis, node.js, SASS and Compass.
Building the best experience for learning opens up a number of interesting technical challenges — to make it immersive, you want see interactions as they happens, and not later.
As a note, we're also hiring growth product hackers and JavaScript engineers.
If you're interested, shoot us an email at tech-jobs@lore.com, with information about yourself, why you're interested, and links to any work/code you can show off.
You can also find more about us and our open positions on our jobs page (http://lore.com/jobs/),

Netflix is an awesome place to work with lots of smart people and top of market pay (and free movies!).
We have similar openings in our Mobile / Tablet group and working on the website if TV doesn't suit your fancy. Great team, fun people, great pay.
I design hospitals and other large enterprise facility's networks and systems... and this is a really big need.
Can I talk to someone at netflix and convince them this is a good idea?
If not, is it allowable to build a system which has paid netflix streaming accounts that can be "checked-out" by nodes/devices to stream to? Allowing a hospital to have a pool of (N) accounts that can by used by (X) devices?
P(K) is a small team in downtown San Francisco pushing the frontiers of probabilistic machine learning to the masses. Our first product is Veritable, a predictive database. We like to think of it as a database for things you don't (yet) know.
We're passionate about discovering the hidden causes behind data, and are currently split pretty evenly between machine learning experts, scalable systems engineers, and people used to working with horribly messy, complex, and sparse data. We're backed by Peter Thiel's grou, Founders Fund, who share our commitment to long-term technical innovation.
http://priorknowledge.com/join-us describes a bit more about what we're looking for, and you can always e-mail me (jonas@priorknowledge.com) for more info! Or swing by our offices at the intersection of 3rd and Market to meet the team.
We are a profitable, bootstrapped company disrupting the $1 billion weather business with a unique, counter-intuitive product used by 6 million people last year. Our clients include many of the world's largest companies--and the White House bunker. More and more often I can drive down the road, point to a sign or a truck and say 'hey, they use Stormpulse!'. It's fun.
We are designers. We are independent. Our mapping and weather data systems have been written from scratch. We have a vision to take our product far beyond what anyone else has ever seen or imagined in the weather space, which effects every person on the planet.
Our platform is written in Python, JavaScript (jQuery, backbone, bootstrap), nginx, Postgres, PostGIS, Flash, haXe, MySQL on Amazon EC2 + S3.
We are Matt, Brad, Josh, and Bryan. Come create with us: founders@stormpulse.com
Good luck with your hunt!

We're building tools to understand Etsy's marketplace and help Etsy's 800,000+ active sellers operate better, more efficient businesses. We need hackers who can learn enough economics to ask the right questions, enough about large-scale data analysis to find the answers, and enough about how our users think to present the answers to them in ways they'll understand.
Etsy has offices in Brooklyn, NY, but being remote is the default for this team. Contact me at avi@etsy.com if you want to talk.
How hard has it been for you to hire? Curious developer seeks more anecdotes to complement pet theories regarding current labour market.
What more can I tell you?
(We're always hiring: http://www.matasano.com/careers --- we love talking to devs from HN.)
Should I ever end up in the States, like it or not, I will be beating down your door just for the chance of an interview.
We've got three offices --- Chicago, NYC, and SFBA (they're all about the same size). It took a long time to decide to open SFBA; we grow slowly.
Oddly enough, if we were going to open up in Europe, Poland would be among the first places we'd consider. It's a bit of a hotbed for appsec talent.
That's really very interesting; I know that there's plenty of (IMHO absurdly underpriced) general programming talent here, but didn't know that extended to being a hotbed for appsec.
If over the next few years you ever fancy finding out a bit more about Poland from a local here, feel free to drop me a line :)
Maybe I'll try again real soon, though! :)
This is exactly the kind of thing I want to make sure we never do in our recruiting process.
Well, it seems the marketplace has updated somewhat more towards paying programmers what they are worth.
Scribd (social publishing, top 100 website, YC '06) is hiring talented hackers and other technical people for a broad range of technologies.
We've hired TWO people from these "Who is Hiring" threads ... it really works!!
We're looking for people who want to work with:
* Ruby on Rails (we're the #2 largest rails site, after Twitter)
* Javascript
* iOS
* Machine Learning / Data mining kinds of problems
* Back-end problems: scalability, web crawling, analytics
That said, we care way more about your personality and general hacking skills then what languages you've used so far, so if you haven't used these but want to break into mobile or web development, this could be a good opportunity for you.
We're very well funded and have a really fun office environment (go-karts + a zipline!). We've got flexible hours, a very engineer-driven company culture, and a really terrific team.
Scribd alumni have gone on to found 4 other YCombinator companies, more than from any other startup. We think this says something about the kind of people that we like to hire.
Looking for full-time and INTERN hires (junior year or older). H1B and relocation are no problem. See more at scribd.com/jobs and feel free to email me directly: jared at scribd.com
Front-end developer
About us: QLabs is a tech incubator based in Noho, NY. We’re a small group of hackers who rapidly prototype new products every 10 weeks, then test them in the market for long-term potential. Our primary focus is the consumer web, though we experiment across a broad spectrum (e.g. hardware).
We have corporate backing, which means competitive salaries, corporate perks, and full benefits.
Our management structure is extremely flat: we succeed or fail as a team.
Our office is arguably the coolest place to work in New York: It's a 22,000 sq. exposed-brick loft, which we share with Codecademy, Turntable.fm and MoviePass.
We’re about to graduate our first product, Huntsy, and are proving an exciting new model for incubating startups.
----
About you: We are searching for a developer with front-end expertise to join our NYC team.
We are constantly vetting and integrating the latest technologies into our development stack, so you may be the person we’re looking for if:
You love building interfaces that are sexy, sleek and simple;
You have an opinion on backbone.js and/or ember.js*;
You’re familiar with CSS3, HTML5 and OO Javascript;
You're familiar with Ruby on Rails and/or have MVC experience.
[*] Our current project uses ember.js for the entire frontend.
Ruby on Rails Engineer
We are looking for people who can work up and down the web stack and who can pick up new languages quickly. If you are a super smart generalist who can work on the servers one day and optimize complex algorithms the next, we want to hear from you. You will be our first non-founder web engineer and will work directly with the founders.
Ability to work from our Backbone.js front-end to our Ruby on Rails back-end is a must. Experience with server management and databases is a plus. Some days you will help keep the servers up and others you will be adjusting algorithms and designs that affect 100s of thousands of people.
We're currently a tiny team of 5, and have an open and friendly culture, where ideas are encouraged to be shared by everyone. Did I mention that we have a ping-pong table?
We're building something incredibly meaningful. Everyme is bringing together families, couples and best friends who otherwise wouldn't communicate. This isn't just another social network, but a significant mission to change how people share. Candidates will hopefully understand and have a passion for privacy, not to mention have an appetite for going up against Goliath.
We are well funded by top-tier VCs and angels, including Andreessen Horowitz, Greylock, CrunchFund, SV Angel and more. Come and join our small team of 5, which includes ex-Facebookers, ex-MySpacers, and successful iPhone and Android app developers. We offer market salary, generous equity and awesome perks!
To apply, please get in touch with me or email jobs@everyme.com! More roles open at http://everyme.com/jobs
We've built the best way for businesses to get fast, actionable data about their social media accounts. Tens of thousands of businesses use us every day, including Fortune 500 companies, advertising agencies, coffee shops, sports teams, rappers, politicians, and more.
Some more things about us:
-We have a legit technical team including two Stanford engineers with backgrounds in machine learning, human-computer interaction, and databases.
-We believe in simplicity, minimalism, and creating things that are a joy to use.
-We're here to help businesses use social media to build real relationships, not spam, and we’ll never compromise on that.
-We're funded by some of the best early-stage investors in the valley, including SV Angel, Charles River Ventures, Y Combinator, and several early investors and employees of Facebook, Twitter, and Slide.
What we'd like to see from you:
-While your peers might describe you as a rockstar, the term embarrasses you. We love rockstars (many of them are Crowdbooster users!), but we've made a conscious decision to have a culture that revolves entirely around our product, not our egos.
-You've wrestled with big data before. Crowdbooster requires storing terabytes of data, extracting insights using statistical learning techniques, and making it available to our users in real-time.
-That said, you like working at every level of the stack, not being pigeonholed as a backend developer.
-You care a lot about the products you ship, and don't need a manager or "product guy" to motivate you to get every detail right.
-You're familiar with several parts of our stack, and willing to learn the rest. We use Python, Django, MySQL, Redis, Memcached, jQuery, Protovis, RabbitMQ, Celery, HAProxy, EC2, git, and more.
-You have projects of your own to show us. It doesn't matter whether it's an open source project, a startup idea, or just a really fun toy project. Just as long as you shipped it.
If this fits you, definitely email us at jobs@crowdbooster.com
Neo provides affordable car loans to consumers new to credit, such as youth and recent immigrants, by assessing their credit risk based on real-time financial and social data as these individuals have not yet built up a credit score. (Yes, it is about time somebody tried this, and we have the chops to do so)
We are a team of three, with high profile advisors. We have seed funding from a top VC. Our beta product is ready. We are gearing up to launch our pilot loan program in coming days.
We are looking for a serious hacker to join our core team and help us execute our pilot loan program. This is an opportunity to get involved in a cutting edge consumer risk analytics project that aims to disrupt the US credit system. Plus, consumers are our customers, so the project also involves working on all the cool tools consumers expect these days (web, mobile, social, etc). As a very early member of our team, you will have direct input into many of the decisions that will affect the future of our company
Drop me a note at navin@MyNeoLoan.com if you are interested.
I have been working in the Applied Research team here @ StumbleUpon for the past 3 weeks and it has been a fun ride so far. They are hiring folks in three different areas (Search and Recommendation, Analytics and Applied Research). We are looking for folks who have been doing a lot of ML( recommendation systems, statistics), search and have experience scaling up (E.g. Hadoop). Refer : http://www.stumbleupon.com/jobs for more descriptive details.
Although we have been here for a while, we have been doing significant changes to our system which will be an exciting opportunity for some one to own and work on large scale machine learning projects. The company is profitable, has the usual goodies (nice salary, 401K match, gym, Uber/Commute reimbursement etc). Anyways, if any of this sounds interesting to you, email me @ eshvk@stumbleupon.com and I will answer any of your questions and help get you in touch with the right recruiters ASAP.
With 50% of traffic now driven by social media, and referrer information increasingly useless with mobile clients and HTTPS, traditional web analytics are no longer working. awe.sm is building full-featured social media conversion tracking and analytics.
Right now and in the medium term, we're providing immediate value to our customers by giving them firm numbers on the ROI of their social media efforts, in terms of dollars, signups, pageviews or any other metric they pick. Our APIs allow app developers to easily integrate social features into their products and easily present the analyzed data back to their own customers, without having to build their own processing clusters and workflows.
Longer term, we want to know what's important on the Internet, and we believe that instrumenting social behaviour is the way to do that.
We're looking for back-end engineers who are interested in learning how to handle large volumes of data for aggregation, geo analysis, and graph analysis, in close to real time. Our stack is mostly PHP and Ruby right now (I know, I know) but we believe in picking the right tool for the job and are not afraid to use new tech.
We're also looking for front-end developers to continue to build out our GUI, which is a backbone JS app built on top of the same APIs our customers use.
http://totally.awe.sm/jobs?source=hackernews
We're 13 people right now. We have a cool new office with awesome views ( http://www.flickr.com/photos/seldo/6326815086/in/photostream ) in the heart of the Mission. We have catered lunches, and full health, vision and dental coverage. We use an IRC server for team communication and are agile in the sense that we move quickly and react fast, not in the sense of having attended an overpriced training course.
Canvas Networks (USV Funded) is looking for engineers #3 and #4 to join a small close team building the rich-media community platform of the future. Our stack in Python/Django/MySQL/Redis/a whole-lot-of JS/EC2 but we're generalists and looking for the same, so it doesn't matter what specific tools you've used before.
The job title says "Software Engineer" but really we're looking for "Software Entrepreneur" or a "Startup Engineer". 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.
Free lunch, flexible hours, one of the biggest arcades in Manhattan (3 cabinets!), competitive salary and benefits, take-what-you-want vacation.

We’re building a cloud-based Content Management platform that’s targeted at developers. We just received funding from prestigious VCs (unannounced).
You say Content Management sucks? That’s exactly what we think, and we see a huge opportunity to do something completely different that plays well with HTML5/JS and native mobile apps.
The initial version of our platform is already used by hundreds of customers, from major global media companies to small development agencies.
It’s now time to throw away the prototype of our API and to build a high-performance solution, from scratch. We want to bring aboard a person who will develop the new JavaScript frontend, public JS SDK and JavaScript server component with us (yes, we’re developers too!).
We’re looking for someone who already has a solid experience in writing and testing JavaScript applications and that has a good knowledge of the JavaScript ecosystem (CoffeeScript, Node, Rhino, ClojureScript) and its frameworks (Backbone, Spine etc). You should have a good Computer Science foundation and an authentic interest in working with JavaScript. Experience in functional programming languages will be considered a plus. One of the main jobs besides developing will be to involve the JS community with talks at conferences and interesting prototypes.
Interested? Please send your GitHub account and any other interesting links about you to sascha@thriventures.com.
P.S.: The only language in the company is English and living in Berlin without any knowledge of German isn't a problem at all.
We're a real-time analytics platform focused on providing data to the people on the front line (people who can take immediate action), rather than the analysts in the back office. Our stack is Python (django/tornado), C, MongoDB, and Google Closure for our JavaScript needs. Hiring engineers, designers, support, sales... Pretty much everything.
Front and back-end software engineers
Funded (Series A) start-up building first engineering team. Looking for Software Developers across the stack. http://www.refresh.io/jobs jobs@refresh.io You're a crack-shot software engineer. Not necessarily because of where you went to school, but because simply put - you love this stuff. You know at least one mobile/web-related computer language cold. Whether it's Objective-C, Ruby, Java Javascript, or others - we're not too concerned about which one because no matter which one (or ones) we end up using, you'll not only be able to pick it up fast, you'll be excited about doing so. You understand the latest technology. From NoSQL to Backbone to Node. You aren't technically religious and gain as much satisfaction in picking the right tool for the job as you do implementing it. You've built stuff. Web sites. Mobile apps. Whatever. You can show us. You can't wait to show us. You're not only excited of what users can do with it, you're proud about how it's implemented and to a technical audience, and you can't wait to talk about it. As part of the first engineering team, you're excited by the prospect of working with smart people. Because you're smart and you know it - and you know that working with other smart people simply makes you better (all the while making them better too).

Factual is hiring engineers and data lovers of all levels in Palo Alto, Los Angeles, and Shanghai. Remote work is possible for exceptional candidates who are US citizens and living in the US ('exceptional' meaning you are a great engineer and have lots of machine learning/data extraction/NLP/etc. experience that is relevant to what we do).
Factual's vision is to be an awesome and affordable data provider that enables developers, startups, and big companies to focus on innovation instead of data acquisition. We have a terrific team that is still fairly small and an incredible CEO who was previously the co-founder of Applied Semantics (which was bought by Google and became AdSense). Factual has venture funding from Andreessen-Horowitz and our partners/customers include Facebook, Yelp, Foursquare, Trulia, and Newsweek.
There are many challenging problems to work on at all layers of the stack: data cleaning and canonicalization, deduping, storage, serving, APIs, improving data using machine learning, etc. If you love data, Factual is the place to be. Our main criteria are that you're smart and get things done, but you'll get bonus points for experience with Clojure, machine learning, NLP, algorithm design, or Hadoop. Our LA office is our headquarters and our Palo Alto office recently opened so new hires would have a huge impact on the culture there.

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 currently working on search and relocated over there about a year and a half 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 and visa issues, most of the people working in IT are expats so we've got a lot of experience with bringing people in.
It's a rapidly growing company that represents the biggest chunk of the Priceline (PCLN) 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're also very open to open sourcing code that doesn't contain any business logic, I've personally been involved in open sourcing a few of our internal tools, including https://github.com/git-deploy and a few CPAN modules.
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. The sort of people we'd like to hire are good technically, excellent at communication, and can acquire a good sense of how they fit into the big picture.
I'd be happy to answer any questions at avarab@gmail.com and/or forward your resume, I've posted in a similar thread here a couple of times before and have already helped get one person hired, many others have had or are having interviews, and I've fielded a bunch of questions from would-be applicants. http://booking.com/jobs also has some good information.

Custora (YC W11) is a customer analytics tool that helps retailers earn more from happier customers.
To be a little more specific, we can point to a single retail customer and paint a meaningful portrait with his data: How much he’ll spend, how often he'll make purchases, what types of products he's inclined to buy, his predicted likelihood of returning, and more. Custora also integrates with email marketing providers and customer support systems to fuel a seamless, iterative flow of insights to actions.
From Fab.com to Etsy, some of the fastest growing and respected names in retail are using Custora on a daily basis.
Who We’re Looking For
We’re looking for a developer to join our core team. Our web stack is Ruby on Rails, and our analytics are done in R. Experience with these technologies is a plus, but we’re open to sharp developers with experience building products for the web in general.
Where We Are
Location-wise, we’re in Brooklyn, NY. We love it. Progress-wise, we’re a YC company from Winter 2011. We’ve recently been featured in the New York Times, GigaOm and BetaKit, and in the last 2 months we’ve had more signups than in the previous 10.
Day to Day
Here’s a taste of what happened last month:
Aaron implemented a Dirichlet Latent Class Multinomial to power customer archetype analysis based on customer purchasing behavior.
Martin made dramatic improvements the email marketing part of the product. He made it easier for our clients to launch multiple email tests in parallel, and added four new email providers to our growing list of integrated partners.
Jon and David worked together to completely redesign the interface of the application. We moved from an interface that focused on browsing through dashboards to one that delivers answers to specific questions.
Outside the office, Corey and Dave manned a booth at a big e-retailer conference and developed a Blackjack-style Custora game to play with prospective clients.
What We Offer
Our compensation is competitive with anyone on the market. Since you’ll be a core member of the team, meaningful equity is part of the package. We offer comprehensive health coverage, including a dental and vision package. Lunches are paid for and we usually eat as a team. We do happy hours at least twice a month and play bocce ball competitively (sort of). Our vacation policy is based on trust — take what’s needed and keep the rest of the team up to speed.
Let’s Chat

I've mentioned before that we have a couple of engineers who work half-time-ish (and do their own things the rest of the time) and it got some positive feedback: http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=3850480

=========
Advantages for you:
- you get 2-3 extra weekend days for fun and profit
- we provide health insurance and all that jazz
- if some weeks you don't have lots to do and want to work more, and other weeks you have lots to do and want to work less, we can be flexible
- we're profitable and growing! so if you decide "wow I really love Verba and want to spend every waking moment there" we can make that dream come true
Advantages for us:
- you have more time to learn new things, meet new people and generally be a friendlier, happier, more knowledgeable person in our workplace
- we can hire faster with less anxiety (instead of the "gulp i just committed $100k/yr" feeling, we have the "smaller gulp i just committed $50k/yr" feeling :)

We're hiring a developer at Ravelry.

The catch - you have to be a knitter or crocheter.
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 1.3 million registered users, and over 3.7 million monthly unique visitors. Both of these metrics tripled in 2011. Over 4,500 papers are added to the platform each day, and over 3,000 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 10 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 Ryan Jordan at ryanj [at] academia.edu

Software craftsman required. Expertise in JavaScript and web development essential.
Could you be employee #1? We're looking for a brilliant developer to join two busy co-founders to help take the product and company to the next level.
== About you ==
You're passionate about producing beautiful, elegant code. You want to work in a company where quality counts, not just out of professional pride, but because great code makes for robust products, rapid development, and a beautiful user experience.

== About us ==
ONEIS solves complicated information management problems for information intensive small and medium organisations.
What does that mean? Each of our clients faces a different problem in how to manage the information in their business. Our current clients include consultancies, private health, insurance, training, and a tax information provider. Standard small business tools aren't good enough, but the large enterprise solutions are overkill and user-hostile. We work with our clients to design a customised solution built on our core information management platform, and host their data ongoing.
We launched to our first clients three years ago and have steadily built an enthusiastic user base. We're a bootstrapped company, funded entirely by revenue from our clients. With no investors, we can focus solely on producing a great product for happy clients.
ONEIS is a collaboration between myself, a developer, and my co-founder, an Information Architect. We've used her expertise to radically rethink how digital information should be managed, and our client satisfaction shows we got it right.
== About the role ==
You'll start by building server-side JavaScript plugins to implement custom features for our clients. These are quick to write, so you'll work on lots of interesting and varied projects from the start.
When you're happy with that, your responsibilities will expand. This will be a bit of everything from developing the core Platform to a spot of systems admin. You may not be familiar with the full stack yet, but you'll be keen to learn it all in a fast-paced environment.
== More info ==
* We primarily use JavaScript (Rhino interpreter), JRuby and PostgreSQL, and develop on Mac OS X.
* Documentation for our JavaScript API: http://docs.oneis.co.uk/dev/plugin
* Some of our clients talking about the system: http://www.oneis.co.uk/openday
* Our jobs page: http://www.oneis.co.uk/jobs
My contact details are in my profile. Send me your CV and an example of code you've written!
This is a great opportunity for any JS devs in London.
