Job title: Scary Story Told To Young Software Developers By Their Parents To Get Them To Go To Bed On Time.
We break software. To do it, in the past year, we've filled up Riak clusters with raw HTTP requests, built a large-scale source code cross referencer for 30 languages, wrote and rewrote a debugger core in Ruby, wrote another in Go, built software fuzzer farms with Redis, tested 3 different proprietary trading protocols, broke sandboxing schemes, built tools to attack chipsets, broke numerous cryptosystems, and gave several talks at Black Hat.
Our customers are excellent; they include Github, 37signals, and numerous YC companies.
Our team is even better. What are we looking for? Here's my first interview question: "what is your research project going to be for us?" Does this stuff interest you? We should talk. WE LOVE TALKING TO DEVELOPERS. You don't have to be a "rock star ninja shaolin grandmaster security pro", wear the right jeans, or listen to Animal Collective (please don't listen to Animal Collective). We just want you to be able to learn fast and not get scared when you're faced with wacky systems in languages you've never used and there's a clock ticking.
Downsides: Not building things people want. In fact, building things people fear and loathe. Also, not being able to wear silver, eat garlic, or enter houses without express invitation.
Perks: Infinite free tech books, medical, dental, vision, 401k.
If I were looking for a day job, I wouldn't be looking for a day job any more: they're friendly, happy people who get social license to join the Dark Side, do smart stuff all day, and then go home while it is still light out. - HN:patio11

HireArt is a software-automated employment agency. We believe that higher ed and the labor market are fundamentally out of sync, and so we're creating a new type of online job application that emphasizes skills rather than pedigree. We're a recent Y Combinator grad looking for an engineer to join the co-founders. This is an opportunity to strongly influence our product at an early stage, and we hope that you'll take on a leadership role as we grow.
We recently raised a big seed round and are offering a competitive salary and generous equity.
Skills
Rails experience is a plus but not required. We're looking for someone who's literate in the full stack and is particularly strong in at least one of:
* HTML/CSS
* Javascript
* A scripting language (e.g. Perl, Ruby, Python, PHP, ShellScripts)
We also hope you're as excited as we are to tackle new problems in:
* Online education
* Labor economics
* UX and UI
* Psychometric testing
* Recruiting
About HireArt
HireArt is rethinking the hiring process in a way that emphasizes skills rather than pedigree. Candidates submit our common app, which require them to do real work (e.g., create a PowerPoint, record a video sales pitch). We use a mix of humans + technology to evaluate our applicants and match them to jobs.
We've already gotten tons of people hired for jobs they love and candidates spend hours at a time on our site. Employers (including big corporations and some of the best start-ups in Silicon Valley) say we're saving them time and money and we’re earning real revenue after just 6 months.

Rails Developers
Green River (http://greenriver.com) is looking for more developers to join our team. We're a Southern Vermont-based consultancy which was founded in 2000. We started writing production apps in Rails in '05 and have grown to a team of nine developers, two project managers, and a UX designer. We focus in the areas of Education, Health and the Environment. We have many great projects such as a scoring system Starbucks uses to facilitate the inspection of 90% of the farms they buy coffee from[1], an archive of all the LEED certified buildings in the world[2], and storytelling software for people with memory loss[3].
If these types of projects sound interesting, we'd love to hear from you. You'd have the option of either working out of our beautiful Vermont office overlooking the Connecticut River, joining our new Cambridge-based team, working remotely, or some combination thereof. Significant experience with Ruby & specifically Rails a huge plus, but if you have experience with other web technologies, still get in touch.

The Ksplice group at Oracle
Does writing Python clones of your favorite childhood computer games sound like a fun weekend project? Would you hack on an old-school graphics demo that fits into a DOS MBR in your free time? Have you ever told a joke whose punch line was a git command? If that sounds like you, we want to hear from you! About us
We are a small, tight-knit team of 12 women and men excited to work on technology that most people will tell you is impossible: updating an operating system kernel while it is running. Our product, Ksplice Uptrack, is a subscription service for Linux that provides completely non-disruptive, rebootless kernel updates. (You can read more about the underlying technology at http://www.ksplice.com/paper)
Our open positions
Kernel engineer: Help us bring Ksplice to new Linux distribution releases, build rebootless kernel updates, and improve and scale the infrastructure around distributing them to our users.
Full-stack engineer with strong Python experience: Help us bring the Ksplice Uptrack client to new Linux distribution releases, improve our server infrastructure, and develop and extend our REST API and Django-based web interface.
If this technology excites you, let's talk! Feel free to direct questions to me at jamie.iles@oracle.com or to jobs@ksplice.com. Oracle is an equal opportunity employer.
We're a small, but fast-growing startup working on a revolutionary Internet advertising platform. We're looking to hire an engineer who is interested in working in a fast-paced environment geared around continuous learning and personal responsibility.
As an engineer at Adzerk, you'll work on all parts of our system, from the front-end web UI to the engines that serve the ads. Our system uses C# (Mono), ASP.NET MVC, jQuery, MongoDB, Hadoop, and RabbitMQ, and we're experimenting with investing heavily in Node.js, Redis, and ZeroMQ. Performance and scalability are our two primary concerns, and with the traffic and growth rates that we're experiencing, lots of the lessons that you've learned start to break down. Because of that, it's not as important what you know right now – what matters is how quickly you can learn and adapt.
* Your work will have an immediate and profound impact on our product and business.
* We ship code dozens of times a week, and you will write code and push to production on your first day.
* You will be responsible for making important decisions about what tools and libraries we use.
* We prize open source contribution. You should have a GitHub account already.
* Unlimited vacation. We work hard, but at a sustainable pace.
* Flexible work schedule, including working at home part-time if you want.
If you think you might be a great fit, drop us a line at jobs@adzerk.com.
Even worse are the ones that say Raleigh and they are in Durham or Cary.
Do companies in other cities do this same misdirection?

Transcriptic: Core Developer or Automation Engineer
Transcriptic is the "Amazon Web Services" for life sciences. Rather than carry out wet-lab experiments by hand, researchers can code up (or visually configure) their experimental protocols and then run them in Transcriptic's central, highly automated 'biocenter' in an on-demand way. Customers have no upfront capital costs and pay for only what they use. Life science research today is incredibly slow, error-prone, monotonous, and expensive with researchers spending many hours a day every day just moving small volumes of liquids from one place to another. We're building a long-term company to completely change the way life science research and development is done.
We're looking for highly talented full-stack web developers as well as combined background EE/CS engineers for automation integration and development.
We're a very small startup (you'd be #3), but well funded and have customers. You'd be able to work on interesting science and hard technology in a really small, all technical team with lots of freedom and resources.
A biology background is preferred but not strictly necessary for outstanding people. The codebase is mostly Ruby and Scala, with some Python.

Embed.ly (YC W10)
We make an API for embedding all kinds of content from the web.
Think of sharing a link on Facebook or Google+; that's the basic functionality that we've been providing to our users. We're more than that, though, and we're looking for a couple people to help us take it to the next level.
We're hiring for two positions right now:
Front-end Engineer:
We want someone who is in to javascript, HTML, CSS, and maybe a bit of photoshop. We've grown our API, but our customer-facing site is lagging a bit. Specifically we want to present our analytics data in a better way. We've got more in the pipe, of course, but details are sparse for now.
---
Natural Language Processing / Machine Learning Engineer:
As I mentioned above, we're looking to take our API to the next level. NLP/ML is going to be a large part of this. We have access to a fantastic amount of data, and we want someone to help us leverage it.
Right now we have some NLP/ML stuff dealing with textual content extraction. We want to do some semantic analysis and categorization to come up with information that is useful to our customers.
---
Our team is still small, fewer than 10 people, so you'll mostly be doing your own driving when it comes to your projects.
Despite the small team, we have a serious customer base, and are actually making money.
We aren't able to sponsor candidates from outside the US, sorry.
Get in touch! team@embed.ly
Silk (www.silkapp.com) is looking for Front-end engineers and a DevOps engineer.
We're building a product that makes it easy for people to create sites with content that is easy to query, visualize and share. On a deeper level, our vision is to bring the semantic web to the masses and build an amazing company around that.
We're working on many interesting and challenging problems, with a custom-built Haskell graph-database on the back-end and a cutting-edge Functional Reactive client-side framework in Javascript on the front-end.
The team is still small (~9 people), so you'll be able to make a large impact. We are well-funded by top-tier VCs (we just announced our round with NEA and Atomico - http://techcrunch.com/2012/08/01/content-crunching-app-silk-...) and located in the city center of Amsterdam.

We're building technology to help disrupt the small/medium business recevables space.

Requirements are: Super smart, amazing at Ruby on Rails OR JavaScript OR Django. You must be willing to attend and/or present at meetups, conferences, etc. and represent Funding Gates so that other awesome folks want to work here, so you must have great written and verbal communication skills.

Did you know there's a company based in Soho that has enough technology to be considered among the world's Top 250 supercomputing sites? One that imports over 5TB of data every single day, and has alumni from Google, Intel, and Microsoft? You might think I’m talking about some stealth-mode startup, but I’m talking about where I work: Two Sigma Investments.
At our core, we're a technology company applying our talents to the domain of finance. We've created a system that combines artificial intelligence and keen human insight—a system that's constantly improving and advancing. We're looking for a diverse set of technologists to join our team. Our challenges require mastery of areas such as kernel level development, machine learning, and distributed systems. Our team includes a Unix Lifetime Achievement winner, Putnam medalists, ACM Programming competition finalists, and International Mathematics Olympiad medalists. We are proud of our individual pedigrees, but even prouder of our teamwork.
We tend to hire people with at least a bachelor’s degree in a technical or quantitative field and experience with C or languages that target the JVM, but we are open-minded in our search for critical thinkers who are passionate about technology. We analyze the data-rich domain of finance, but financial experience is not a requirement. We hope to hear from you!

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 THREE people from these "Who is Hiring" threads, including one just last month ... 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 profitable, 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
Etsy, Inc.
Hiring for developers, operations, and lots of other roles (including non-technical), see http://www.etsy.com/careers/

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.

We are a team of three, with high profile advisors. Our beta product is ready, and we are executing a pilot loan program. We have seed funding from a top VC (http://www.businessweek.com/articles/2012-07-26/social-plus-... - see page 2 for Neo)

Spiceworks - Full Time
Spiceworks is a fun, fast-paced, fast-growing start-up in Austin TX with experienced entrepreneurial executive management (all.com, Motive Communications, Tivoli) with a successful IPO and acquisition history. Our flagship product has over 2 million users, and we are developing large product features on multiple fronts:
- Cloud Services Integration - Data Analytics - System Management Application (Spiceworks app) - IT Community, the "Facebook of IT"
And this covers the full stack - backend, Rails server programming, and extensive UI work.
We have a multitude of technical and non-technical positions available. I'm not going to re-post every single one here, and instead encourage you to follow this link: http://www.spiceworks.com/jobs/openings/
I am currently looking for a go-getting engineer who is eager to learn and help build out a new platform for our product. You will touch the full stack, and learn everything along the way you don't already know. If you want to work with a top-notch, disciplined team and move fast, definitely apply as a 'Software Developer' and tell them Scott sent you. We are looking for aptitude, so if your Javascript or Rails experience isn't 100% don't let that stop you.
Podio, now part of Citrix, is an online work platform with a new take on how everyday work gets done. What sets Podio apart is how it puts people in control of their work tools, rather than the other way around. You decide how to structure your projects, teams and workflows by creating your own workspaces and sharing them with relevant people. You also decide how to structure, create and present content and information that’s linked to your work processes and interactions. You do this by choosing from hundreds of Podio’s specialized work apps or creating your own to help you get the job done – whatever it is.
Now hiring for:
- UI/UX Designer: http://blog.podio.com/2012/07/31/designer/
- Visual Designer: http://blog.podio.com/2012/07/31/visualdesigner/
- Director of Marketing: http://blog.podio.com/2012/07/31/marketingdirector/

Actifio is looking for software engineers. Actifio is radically simple copy data management. We've invented some really cool technology to do things no other system can, and we're dead easy to use. This is not your mother's enterprise software!
Actifio has been invested in by top VC firms (one of the very few East Coast companies in Andreessen Horowitz's portfolio) and is growing super fast.
We're always looking for smart engineers in every team, but since I'm on the deduplication team, I'll have to pitch you on that :)
Dedup seems like an easy problem to solve. Split the data up into blocks and make sure you only store one of each. But at scale, it becomes a whole different animal.
When you've got 128TB of 4KB blocks, you have 32 billion unique blocks of data to manage. Making our dedup ingest, restore, and garbage collect fast is a great challenge, especially with "only" 128 GB of RAM.
If you'd like to chat about a job opportunity, I'm at chris.murphy@actifio.com. Since I'm an engineer, I'm not going to type a list of silly requirements. Just send me a resume and whatever else you think I'd like to know.

Contextly is making online news better. We're currently in a closed beta of our related links service, a beta that includes Wired.com and other top tech blogs.
We're looking for a technical co-founder to build and architect (in the widest possible conception of that term) a better future for online news. Pardon the generalities, but we actually believe that stealth is underrated for startups.
If you are passionate about journalism and big data and want to build something that actually makes a difference, drop us a line, we'd love to talk.
There are many decisions yet to be made about our future stack, so being proficient at choosing the right tools in an honest manner is more important than having X years experience in Python/Ruby/MongoDB, etc. An interest in APIs, big data, graph analysis, etc., as well as open source contributions will help you stand out.
E-mail ryan@contextly.com with "HN" in the subject line.
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. See my interview at OSCON for why you might want to work for us: http://youtu.be/wzcIOMp6ZKw
-----
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.
Full details and application here: http://bit.ly/cbmijob1
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.
You can email me personally at leo -at- factual.com, or view our job postings and apply directly via Jobvite:

We're ready to hire a couple more in this vein, so if it sounds interesting let me know!
=========
Advantages for you:

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 :)
- you get to be a part of what we're doing, we get to hear about all the cool stuff you're doing, and that can only lead to good things for both of us
Anyway, I've included our spiel and "what we're looking for" summary below, so shoot me an email if you're interested (ragalie@verbasoftware.com).

The college textbook market is currently being disrupted. Verba helps college bookstores transform themselves so that they a) understand and embrace the power of the nets, b) become agents of change in the textbook industry instead of agents of reaction and c) continue to make a healthy profit.
We're a B2B company working with around 225 colleges and universities, and we're looking for people familiar with Ruby, Rails, MySQL and JS who can help us grow faster. We (thankfully) don't have too many scaling problems, but we have a ton of opportunities (product and partner-based) that we could move on much faster with a few more hands on deck.
The ideal person has strong Rails knowledge, solid testing practices, a good head for architecture and knows enough JS to help out on front-end.
Be sure to check out our website (http://www.verbasoftware.com) so you can read all about our current products and hear people say nice things about us.

The Stationary Storage team at Tesla Motors is growing and we’re looking for a smart and versatile developer to add to the team. Our current team is very small and we’re looking for a hand-on, generalist who will get things done. You will work on a variety of subsystems, some are existing codebases (with other users and developers) that need modification for our application, while other projects are new and specific to our group. The team is small and you will be able to shape the direction of the product and a large amount of ownership of the firmware and software that is specific to this application ranging from architecture to implementation to testing.
Here are some of the projects that we see coming up soon:
* Embedded C on a microcontroller with an RTOS
* Communication over CAN, Ethernet, zigbee, and GSM networks
* Machine learning for analyzing and modeling energy systems (We’ve been using Matlab and Go, but would love to explore R, Hadoop, and AWS)
* Design and evaluation of algorithms for energy and power markets (think Quant algos but controlling real hardware and moving energy instead of money).
* Designing a robust system to control distributed resources
* UI for customer facing control and data viewing
* Development of parsers/compilers/code-transformers/DSLs for templating and code generation.
While this isn’t the typical HN job, we could see many of these projects appealing to people who are excited about at least several of:
* Green Energy
* Physical hardware
* Parsers/Compilers/DSLs
* Machine learning/algos for people who don’t want to work in Finance
* A variety of languages and technology (in the last 6 months I have used C, Python, Perl, Go, Matlab/Octave, Tcl, VB, and in my small circle people are using Ruby, Java, php, R and probably others.)
We are a small team working on energy and designing physical hardware (which you will control!), so our internal conversions have as much to do with “watt-hours” and “tooling costs” more than “closures” and “apps”.
Requirements (other things we’re more flexible about):
* Comfortable with embedded C
* Degree in Engineering or experience with Energy
If you are interested in this job please email kfine@teslamotors.com
There are also many more positions available in other groups at Tesla Motors, which you can see here: http://www.teslamotors.com/about/careers

Smarkets (https://smarkets.com)
Smarkets is a real-time online trading platform with an Erlang backend and Python frontend. Smarkets is disrupting the global betting industry by offering a modern betting exchange product with significantly lower transaction fees than the competition. We have traded over £150 million of bets since launching in February 2010.
The part of our stack which runs behind the website is one of the few that uses Erlang as a primary language, and is supported by other well-known Erlang projects such as RabbitMQ and CouchDB.
The non-Erlang pieces of our stack are mostly written in Python, and relies heavily on asynchronous programming techniques and REST.

MyDrive Solutions
Who are we?
MyDrive provides data analysis services for insurance telematics. We collect GPS data from black boxes installed in cars, and from smartphone apps, and we analyse it to work out how well you are driving, so insurers can provide a fair price for insurance. This means that good drivers can get cheaper car insurance. We work with RoSPA in the UK for driver behavioural research into what constitutes good driving. We have customers and commercial pilots across Europe and South Africa with a range of global insurance companies, brokers and aggregators.
Our processing engine is predominantly Ruby 1.9, with a Rails (3.2, rspec, cucumber etc) API frontend backed by Postgres. Redis and Resque power the processing queue, and we occasionally drop down to C++ for some number crunching (normally libs wrapped up in FFI Ruby bindings). We've got Cassandra for large scale querying and storage, and we manage all of this on AWS using Chef. We use Github, Campfire, Hubot, and Janky for code, collaboration and CI.
Who are we looking for?
We've potentially got a few vacancies over the next few months as more customers launch, but right now we're looking for a systems lead who can help keep our infrastructure running 24/7 as we grow, and also help our customers integrate with us. Ideally someone with experience of running large web services on AWS using Chef.

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/)
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 already have a team for the backend and are now looking for an iOS developer who will create an iOS SDK and example applications.
We’re looking for someone who already has a solid experience in writing and testing iOS applications and that has a good knowledge of the iOS ecosystem and its frameworks (CoreData etc.). You should have a good Computer Science foundation and an authentic interest in working with Objective-C and Cocoa. One of the main jobs besides developing will be to involve the iOS 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.

Does not take joy in learning new technologieskonciergeMD (http://konciergemd.com/) is an early stage startup in the Philly suburbs. We're building a product that changes how caregivers and providers collaborate to deliver healthcare. We're a small, polyglot team with diverse backgrounds. Our stack is Java/Scala on the back end and HTML5/CSS3/Javascript on the front end. We care deeply about aesthetics. We care deeply about coffee. We are seeking developers who are equally comfortable with front and back end development and who understand web-scale, high-availability, high-traffic application architectures.
We're looking to bring on a top-notch software engineer, a pragmatist focused on shipping. We are open to contract or full-time work candidates. You will play a role in shaping this product -- this is core to our culture, so bring your opinions. We're generalists, but the path we're blazing will heavily rely on Javascript, jQuery, Backbone.js, HTML5, CSS3, Java, Scala, Play Framework, and Amazon Web Services. We're web first but mobile is quickly approaching on the horizon. Bonus points if you have experience working with medical informatics. Gold stars if you have experience working with big data, machine learning, or semantic web.
If you're interested, ping ron@konciergemd.com.
At Causes, use your programming powers to help nonprofits effect change on the world! Ruby on Rails + jQuery stack, 12-ish person engineering team, the usual startup perks (catering, snacks, soda, etc), gym membership reimbursement, etc. Ways we're trying to make ourselves better engineers:
- deliberate practice with our tools. If you are a vim user, we have the programmer who wrote Command-T on staff and he's a great person to learn from - every changeset gets pushed to Gerrit where it waits to get a +1 from our build suite (that runs in 3 minutes) and a +1 from a human reviewer
- over the last 4 months, we've upgraded from Rails 2.1 to 3.2.3 and are using the static asset pipeline, SASS/Compass, and HAML. We're the largest site I know of on Rails 3.2. We gave a presentation on the upgrade at last weeks SF Rails meetup, slides at causes.github.com/migrating-rails-talk
- everyone is encouraged to take one hour from their day to learn about something they wouldn't otherwise (aka study hall)
- every story is scoped so that it can be completed in less than a day. We don't branch, we just work on top of master. We've found that the closer we stay to master, the less needless work we create for ourselves
Causes is a great place to better yourself and better the world. We're particularly looking for a systems/ops/network engineer to help wrangle our colo. Apply through the site or adam@causes.com if interested!
Senior Backend Software Developer - Peek
What is Peek?
Great trips are built on the special experiences you share with friends and family, yet they're often difficult to find and a pain to book. Peek is changing this by curating a list of the best things to do in a given location and putting them within reach - via personalized recommendations on your computer, tablet, or mobile phone. We help travelers uncover a hidden gem in their neighborhood, find the perfect weekend adventure, or plan an epic journey.
Who we're looking for
We're looking for an experienced backend architect/engineer to drive and create our initial product, and to grow with the company to take on leadership positions. A passion for solving hard problems and building beautiful products is a must. You'll be engineer #4 at Peek and have the opportunity to own large parts of the system going forward.
Peek's distributed web services backend is powered by Ruby on Rails and MongoDB, hosted on Heroku, while our UI is made awesome by Backbone.js, Sass, CoffeeScript and beautiful, responsive visual design.
What else?
We'll set you up with a shiny new Mac and a big monitor, steps away from a fridge/kitchen that can satisfy any craving. We do weekly team picnics (or Peekniques, if you will) but also love cooking in the office when not discovering new places to eat. We're a diverse, travel-loving bunch and our beautiful sun-lit office is centrally located on Montgomery MUNI/bart.
Please give us a shout at jobs@peek.com
We're an Alexa top-150 site with a very small and tight DevOps team. For leverage, we automate as much as possible and build tools when they don't already exist.
You'll be working directly with a few other senior DevOps engineers. You will not have to report to any non-engineer managers.
Did I mention that the position is remote?
We automatically create 3D models of real spaces that you can see, design & share on the web.
We have paying customers and are and backed by two of the highest profile seed funds in tech, one on the west coast, one east coast firm.
We are looking for developers, especially people who are interested in computer vision problems and potentially have experience in online 3D technology. Technologies we currently use include: Ruby, Rails, Python, Blender, JS, CouchDB, Meteor, Heroku, Git, OpenCV, Unity, OpenGL and graphics accelerators.
By joining us now you'll have the opportunity to be part of a founding team and to help set the culture & long-term software architecture of our company.
We are a small, technical team with diverse backgrounds. We've worked for companies such as Zappos, Microsoft (Kinect/Xbox), Knewton, Bonobos, TellApart & Accel Partners. We're graduates of schools such as MIT, Harvard, Carnegie Mellon & Brown.
We're fortunate to be working out of Class A office space donated by one of our investors and we're working hard towards long-term profitability.

What? Imagine a room in SF where all the top engineers from Google, Facebook, Apple, etc. come by everyday and spend a couple of hours? The value of that room is incredibly high. Now, let's expand the room to contain the best problem solvers (hackers, PhDs, math studs from Weizmann, etc.) across the globe hanging out every single day. This room has the potential to define how the world functions.
At HackerRank.com we're building this room online.
How? Every programmer has something that attracts her to code - bot-vs-bot contests (eg: aichallenge.org), functional programming challenges (eg: 4clojure.com), quick hacks over twitter API's, etc. This can be for fun or to learn a particular programming concept or anything in programming (eg: vimgolf.com has greatly improved my vim skills)
We're taking the complete experience and adding an interesting social component to it. It's going to be a fun place for programmers to hang out.
Team: We're a young team at Mountain View, recently funded by Y-combinator and a top VC firm. You'll be an early engineer in a real hardworking team of hackers. Our culture is defined more on persistence than "talent".
Tech stack: We use ROR, backbone.js, coffeescript, neo4j, EC2.
Preview: youtu.be/-p44yPm2wy0
Apply: Please mail your online coding profile and the biggest hack you've done to hackers [at] hackerrank [dot] com
We’re a small, four person team - including the intern who made Yelp’s Monocle, a designer from Cooper Union and a computer vision genius. We raised $2 million in a heavily oversubscribed round of funding from August Capital. We spoke at TED (sorry, no video!), have offices on union square in San Francisco and have an app that has an unparalleled ability to induce uncontrolled smiles of glee when people first see it.
We’re looking for someone to be our point person for IOS development. We actually all have IOS experience (and a really cool app in progress), but we’re looking for someone to grab the bull by the horns and focus on IOS full time (as the two engineers are focused on computer vision and ‘all the other boring engineering’ respectively). You’ll be a pretty big deal at our company. We’re pretty lucky in that our technology spans everywhere from advanced computer vision to WebGL and HTML5 to Python, PostgreSQL and Redis to low-level run-loop optimizations for UI responsiveness, multithreaded OpenGL, GCD, core data synchronization, etc. It's a lot of fun.

Things we'd like to see:
- Strong development fundamentals
- Web development experience
- Python experience is a plus, but not requisite

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.

Emcien develops four products wrapped around a patented pattern-detection algorithm. Using the basic concept of detecting nodes and arcs, these applications solve problems in manufacturing, retail, and law enforcement. This computation, plus big datasets, create some complicated problems. Our software engineering team takes algorithms from our research team and embeds them into Ruby on Rails web applications which are hosted on the Amazon Elastic Cloud.
We are looking for more developers to join our team. If you mastered the concepts behind web development and have experience dealing with the web stack, Emcien is willing to train you in Ruby on Rails. This position is an excellent opportunity for anyone who wants to make the transition from Java, .NET, Python, Php, or oCaml.
Since we are a small, delta-force team of developers, each team member dives into a variety of code. Although you do not have to be an expert in each of these areas, this position will expose you to CoffeeScript, MySql, Amazon RDS, SASS, HAML, Backbone.js, and several other technologies. This means that your skills will advance with the latest ideas and innovations in web development.

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, very large collaborations (like the Gates foundation TB initiative or MM4TB in Europe), and government agencies.
We just grew the software development team from 2 to 5 over the last 3 months bringing in some awesome people and are looking for at least one more full-stack software developer (https://www.collaborativedrug.com/pages/employment). As one of the core developers, you need to be comfortable working or interested in building expertise at every level of the stack.
The application is based on Rails but it is way more than a simple CRUD app. We have many projects involving web development, data visualization, data processing, scaling, security, privacy, usability and other software challenges to make our scientific application collaborative, engaging and rewarding. We are also starting working on an API.
It is perfectly OK if you do not have experience with any of the languages or technologies we currently use (Ruby/Rails/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. We offer market salary and meaningful equity.
If you are interested, contact work@collaborativedrug.com, you will get an answer from one of the developers.

We love feedback - you’ll be able to connect directly with customers who are using what you’re building and use their input to make the product better. We’re self-directed - We trust you to manage your own schedule, vacation, etc. without complex policies or forms to fill out. We ship - we're huge fans of TDD, build/measure/learn, and are moving towards continuous deployment. We give back - We encourage open source contributions and community participation. We’re hyper technical - Deep understanding and optimization are in our soul - what can your code accomplish in 18ms?

Freedom Freight
Rails Developer, iOS Developer
The last 50 years has seen the reinvention of almost every major industry except for one: Trucking. Freedom Freight is here to change that by deploying the world's first mobile platform for on-demand freight shipping. Over $30 billion dollars a month is spent trucking freight around the US, without it, the country would grind to a halt overnight. In a such a massive market, it's hard to believe that the entire industry today still runs on phones and fax machines, but until now, it has. This means millions of hours are wasted and thousands of drivers are sitting idle or driving empty. We are changing that.
We're looking to bring Rails and iOS developers on the team. We're a small, flat company and this is a fantastic opportunity to join a great team trying to conquer one of the largest markets in the US.

Looking for an amazing developer to join our small in-house team. You'd be working with me on client work (being the CTO and dev team for startups), internal projects, open-source projects, and even your own side projects. If you want to check out some of our existing open-source projects, see http://os.alfajango.com.
I have a pretty good network of developers, and so I usually just work with people I know, but I like the HN crew, so I figured I'd put this out there.
Requirements:
An unbridled, unfettered, bursting passion for learning, building, startups, and open-source. This doesn't necessarily mean you already have your own open-source projects or side projects or whatever, though it helps.
We use mainly ruby and javascript (front-end and back-end) and git, but we also like experimenting and welcome new experiences.
Application Process:
Ha, no. Just shoot me an email (in my profile) and we'll talk.

We are looking for seasoned engineers to join our team of three. Our stack is Rails 3, with Redis and Postgres as our stores. We use HAML/Sass/Coffeescript & jQuery for creating beautiful cross-browser experiences. Our site runs on EC2 (no Heroku) with all of the benefits and challenges that brings.

We're a new, well-funded startup making and publishing AAA games for browser and mobile. We're making real games for a large audience. Not ultra casual, not niche-y.
Our first title is a cooperative multiplayer 3D action-RPG. Think Diablo on Facebook. But free-to-play, and no big download. No obscure plugins, either -- we use Flash, but you wouldn't believe it. Adobe says they've never seen anything higher quality in Flash.
Seriously, check out our trailer: https://www.rumblegames.com/kingsroad (and that was 6 months ago)
We're in closed beta. Let me know if you want to give it a test drive.
Rumble is backed by Google Ventures and Khosla Ventures ($15mm series A). We have one of the strongest founding teams the gaming industry has ever seen. (No, really: https://www.rumblegames.com/about/our-team)
We're both a developer and publisher of games, and we need help on both sides. If you want to develop the next generation of top-quality games, or you want to build and scale infrastructure to 1mm+ concurrent players, this is for you.

With 50% of traffic is 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 simple parts loosely coupled, and also in picking the right tool for the job, so you genuinely have the power to shape the stack you work on.
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.

Software Engineer/Senior Software Engineer at Cogo Labs (http://www.cogolabs.com/)
Cogo Labs is a company that creates companies, kind of like an incubator with a twist: all of our ideas/startups come from within the company. We don't offer investment in outside startups. Thus far we have had two major ($100MM+) acquisitions, and a handful of smaller ones, and we are anticipating more in the near future. Typically, once a startup we are incubating gets off the ground, we hire employees into that startup and assist them with whatever they need to make the company successful. Cogo Labs itself has around 40 full-time employees now in our office in Kendall Square in Cambridge, MA.
I'm looking for a software engineer or senior software engineer to join my team. You should have a degree in CS or a similar field, and experience developing for the web, as most of our startups are web properties. Specific experience in Ruby, Rails, and/or Python are a plus, but not absolutely necessary. I'm more concerned with finding smart people than finding people with specific skills.
I am currently developing new features for a web site that we run that gets >50k unique visitors per day, and you'd be assisting in this effort. I can be more specific if you're invited for an interview.
We are big on metrics and analysis -- there are grids of monitors (we call them "NOC walls") all over the office showing up-to-the-minute stats about all of our properties. I can code up a new feature, deploy it, and walk over to one of the NOC walls and literally watch my change affect traffic on the site, or revenue, or profit. It's a really fun place to work. Benefits and perks are great as well (see http://cogolabs.com/careers for more info).
If you're interested, shoot me an email with your resume and a brief cover letter (be sure to mention you saw this post on HN). Bonus points for including a link to your github page or other code repository where I can see some code you've written.
You can reach me at cmatthias at cogolabs.com.

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 1.5 million registered users, and over 3.5 million monthly unique visitors. Both of these metrics tripled in 2011. Over 4,500 papers are added to the platform each day, and over 3,500 academics join each day.
We need talented engineers to help us accelerate the world's research. We believe that science is currently dysfunctional, and 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 an API for Academia.edu, to allow developers to hook into our academic graph
* building a great News Feed for all the research you want to follow
* building a world class Analytics product giving scientists real-time metrics about the impact of their work
* building infrastructure to make the site extremely fast and stable
What we're looking for are:
* Web development experience (building apps on your own is great)
* Experience with the full engineering stack
* Passion for engineering and building great products
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.
Some guest posts on TechCrunch about the problem that we are trying to solve, and our company's mission, are below:

Twin Engine Labs - workwithus@twinenginelabs.com
We're an award winning, cutting edge design and engineering shop. We bootstrapped our company from two people (designer and engineer) to 11, and along the way learned a lot of lessons. A few of them are:
1. Building tools that make our jobs easier in the future is smart and gives our agency an edge. You will be expected to constantly try to improve our process, and your voice will be heard.
2. Following that point, if you think something should change? Do it. Let me know about it (CEO), get buy in from the other engineers, and don't wreck our timelines. But stop talking and start doing!
3. Salespeople will never estimate your project officially. Ultimately, I will bring in a project, lay it in front of you, and ask the team to do a planning poker session. Your velocity is set at a scant 10 points, and the timeline is bid against that initial velocity. Under promise, over deliver.
4. If you estimate poorly, you are expected to fix it. If the project just went off the rails due to things out of your control, then your feet won't be held to the fire, but if it's genuinely your fault, fix it. It's completely in your control.
5. Try the impossible. We built The Fantastic Flying Books of Mr. Morris Lessmore, an impossible feat for it's day. We've built complex interfaces for Cisco, Symantec, and now are working with O'Reilly. Don't be afraid to use 2D Game frameworks if you have to. People don't contract Twin Engine Labs to do the status quo.
6. Be a full stack engineer. Know iOS but not Rails? Talk to us. Know Rails but not iOS? Talk to us. You will be placed in projects of your capacity, but very quickly ramped up to both platforms. We expect you to know everything from server deployments to iOS deployments, to Postgres optimization to Core Data optimization, from caching in Restful APIs to caching NSURL connections. Being a full stack engineer allows you to move faster than every other shop out there.
7. Finally, work directly with the customer. You, as the engineer, will always be expected to speak with the customer faster than I can. I will always give you air cover when you need it (and I typically can see that coming from a mile away). As well, you'll hear their requirements from their mouths (no games of telephone here), and get to ask them questions, with the safety net that I always stand behind our employees.
Perks? Multiple projects in a year, constantly learning the cutting edge techniques, and some seriously huge names under your belt.
Our environment is flat. No Pointy Haired Bosses allowed or bean counters here. Paint yourself purple, turn yourself upside down, and spin around three times while you code. As long as you deliver, I don't care how you do it.
Employees come into work at what is a reasonable hour to them. Our employees set their own start times, with flexible work at home situations when required. Most of them come into work because... well... we like each other :)
Intrigued? Talk to us. We've helped multiple entrepreneurs sink funding, watched multiple apps receive awards, and are known in our region and nationally.
Who we are: GoPago is fighting the crime of long lines! Our service allows customers to browse, order from, and pay local restaurants and businesses - all from their phone (with the added bonus of skipping any infernal line they come across!). We're working on a lot of challenging problems and trying to bring the simplicity of our service to the masses. Come help us revolutionize mobile payments!
We're looking to hire for three senior technical positions - all candidates should have a solid technical background with demonstrable experience in their area of focus. All candidates should have, at minimum, a bachelors degree in computer science or comparable experience. We're an Agile shop, so a passion for Scrum'ing it up is a plus. You, like our engineers, should take pride in writing quality code, learning from experts, and blazing a new path.

We are looking for more exceptional talent to join our team and help us achieve our vision. We are committed to building a cutting-edge technology giant with a fun and challenging work environment. We have a culture optimized for learning and continuous improvement. We are 10 people with very diverse backgrounds, and growing.
We launched Voxer in 2011 and have since become one of the fastest growing voice applications in the world. What we've built is already an important part of the daily lives of millions of people.
We're a surprisingly small team doing this. Only about a dozen engineers who previously worked at Danger, Android, Apple & Twitter. We helped build things like redis for node.js and are contributors to the node.js community. Voxer is built using node.js, Riak and Redis.

San Francisco, CA - Hadoop Engineer
We are solving really hard problems at massive scale with Node.js, Riak, Redis and run on Joyent Cloud.
We are generating a lot of data in the process - more than 25 billion events every day. We just jumped into the Hadoop ecosystem and are running our own cluster which processes terabyte. If you love working on these kinds of problems, get in touch and maybe we can figure them out together.
You'll get to work on:
* Help scale and develop our Hadoop cluster.
* Understand the patterns of groups, billions of messages with location data and social graph patterns.

My team is working on monitoring and alerting for all of the different services at Twitter. Zipkin (https://github.com/twitter/zipkin/) is an example of the kinds of tools our team is building right now. The two central components are a dashboard/charting monitoring service as well as our own alerting system.
Most of our infrastructure challenges stem from the sheer number of writes we need to deal with as well as the temporal nature of what we're doing - all of our writes need to happen within certain time periods and reads have to be consistent within certain time-frames to avoid engineers being woken up at 4am due to incorrect data from a dirty read. Given that we're the service which observes all the other critical components - our reliability requirements are also a huge challenge.
The product challenge on this team is making sense of a whole lot of data. So there is a lot of cutting-edge data visualisation work. You have certain services running on thousands of nodes and teams want to use our product to quickly find outliers and scan their dashboards with key metrics. This means you have potentially thousands of timeseries with thousands of data points on the screen at the same time. This is a JavaScript gig where you get to think about algorithms and performance on a daily basis. We're also an internal tool, so we have the option of targeting cutting edge, modern browser features. In reality it means 90% of your time is working on cool stuff and not on getting IE to work.
I think the biggest benefit of working on our product team is that you a level of autonomy which is hard to find on a user-facing product. So if you're the creative type who doesn't want to be micro-managed or told where to push those pixels, I think this is a really good gig.
Right now we're looking for experienced engineers for both infrastructure and product. Our infrastructure is JVM-based and written in Scala, with some Python. Our product is written in JavaScript and we have some Ruby to deal with. Knowledge of these platforms is beneficial, but solid experience and passion for this problem domain is even better.
A systems position: https://twitter.com/jobs/positions?jvi=ospeWfwL,Job A dataviz position: https://twitter.com/jobs/positions?jvi=og12VfwY,Job
The dataviz position doesn't accurately reflect the open rec we have for my team, so don't worry if you don't match the skills exactly.
I work on both infrastructure and product for the positions I described, so if you're interested you can send your resume to me directly at david @ dmclaughlin.com to speed up the process.
Also - we're hiring across the board at Twitter so also take a look at all open positions here: https://twitter.com/jobs
Looking for a full-time developer, and you can work remotely. To apply for this position, send your resume and a brief cover note to caetie@akvo.org.
We have some fun and hard problems to solve -- how can we maintain and extend a complex tool with a lot of moving parts (a mobile app, a web platform, map displays) while keeping it simple and enjoyable for people to use? Double down when they need to be able to use it in areas of the world with low or scarce web and mobile connectivity. How do we make the data users collect satisfying and easy to work with? Can we build web and mobile apps that can flex from an $80 off-the-shelf Android device, to a tablet, to a desktop computer? And finally, can we build FLOW to become the go-to tool for international monitoring and evaluation?
This is what we are looking for in a developer:
• You are a smart, creative and experienced Java developer who wants to learn and improve a new and complex software platform end-to-end. • You are an independent, self-motivated worker who can also be a strong team member. • You can see the big picture but attend diligently to the small details that make software work. • You enjoy and value communicating your work to your team and your users.
Akvo is a small non-profit foundation with a big mission. We create open source web and mobile software, and build networks of skilled partners that can change the way development aid is allocated and reported. This is important, because it improves the way projects are implemented in some of the poorest parts of the world, making them more effective, efficient, sustainable and visible.
Core skills required: • Java • Web frameworks, such as Spring • Google App Engine • Strong database and SQL skills with knowledge of NoSQL databases • Google Web Toolkit and Ext JS • JavaScript/HTML/CSS/Ajax
Major plus skills: • Experience developing native Android apps or other mobile phone apps (our mobile app is Android) • Google Enterprise Technologies (Google Apps, Google Maps, Google Search) and Amazon Web Services • JDO and other persistence technologies • GIS software and libraries such as GeoTools • Unit testing in Java and agile development • Some combination of Python, Ruby, Django, Git, Lettuce, Robotium, Calabash
Our team is close knit, despite being distributed. We take the people and team factors very seriously, both our colleagues and our partners using our software (we call them partners and not clients). This also means that we take work-life balance and the importance of having fun very seriously. The fact that most of our developers telecommute means that you can maintain a flexible schedule and work environment to suit your needs.
You would work from home and expect to spend a lot of time on Skype connecting with your colleagues. It may also be possible for you to work close to colleagues in our Amsterdam, Helsinki, Stockholm or Washington DC hubs. You write and speak fluent English, and you are based in a UTC-5 to UTC+2 timezone (East Coast United States to Eastern Europe).
To apply for this position, send your resume and a brief cover note to caetie@akvo.org.

We're a startup turning the problems of nutrition, health, and weight-control on their head by inverting the current standard for how software helps people decide what to eat. Current market solutions are broken and tedious and we're building a way for people to be healthy and achieve their goals without preventing people from living their normal day-to-day lives.
We are an engineering driven company who are very product driven and love building things that solve peoples' problems. Our stack is Python (Flask) and MongoDB on the backend and we use a modern combination of HTML, CSS, and JavaScript on the frontend. People who have portfolios, interesting projects, or funny little hacks will be noticed the most.
Our core algorithm that drives the product's value proposition is Python + NumPy, we're looking for people that have experience building systems involving things like constraint solving and searching static sets in NumPy. If you like the idea of working on big data and algorithmic problems, get ahold of me!
Contact me at the email address in my profile...please include any material about yourself you like, resume/cv, portfolio, github, past projects, OSS contributions, anything. CODE SPEAKS THE LOUDEST!
Cheers all!
Job Title: Front-end developer using Rails 3.2, slim, coffee script, jquery. Ember.js is a plus.
AFAR Media is a well-funded travel media start-up spanning print and web. We have big monitors, stand-up desks, and fancy new laptops. Your coworkers will be be developers, designers, project mangers, and (this is the cool part) magazine editors, meaning you'll work with a wider ranger of personalities than the standard developer scrum.
This job is ideal for someone who loves to travel for fun (the position does not require travel, but a fulfilling life does, and one of our great perks is a yearly travel stipend). No arbitrary requirements here, if you are an expert or a least have a hacking willingness to learn and a good attitude, we want you. Our team is small, and all opinions are considered (and frankly, needed) from product design through delivery.
If you are interested, please send an email to jobs@afar.com.
