We test software for vulnerabilities.
Sorry, that's too clinical - the reality is that we torture and flay software, twisting it to serve our nefarious ends.
If that sounds like fun, consider applying.
NO PRIOR APPSEC EXPERIENCE IS REQUIRED. Just a keen technical acumen and a thirst for blood.

Better than using stateful concurrency? If you have read "Concepts, Techniques, and Models of Computer Programming" you would see that each approach is not necessarily "better", they each have their own unique advantages and disadvantages
To quote from CTM: The message-passing approach is often the best for multi-agent programs, i.e., programs that consist of autonomous entities (“agents”) that communicate with each other. The shared-state approach is often the best for data-centered programs, i.e., programs that consist of a large repository of data (“database”) that is accessed and updated concurrently. Both approaches can be used together for different parts of the same application.

Vehicle Data Science Corporation is looking for a Director of Engineering to lead design and implementation of software that processes and analyzes big spatial data sets. The company is an early-stage startup located in Oakland’s Rockridge neighborhood with initial funding from a National Science Foundation grant and a major automobile client. We use location data from vehicles to derive driving behaviors which we capture in a proprietary database. This database feeds applications in the areas of driver safety, fuel economy and autonomous vehicles.
We are looking for a smart, adaptable individual with plenty of skills and breadth in computing to build products from our data streams. By joining us today, you get a unique chance to engineer new technology from the ground up. Working in tandem with the company’s CTO, you will tackle both back end infrastructure and a web front end. Initially, the position will primarily involve hands-on coding and systems administration, but it can evolve toward more supervision and/or architectural work as we grow, based on your inclinations.
Our current systems are built 100% in Python, with a PostGIS database in the back end. Our roadmap includes two key tasks that the Director of Engineering must be equipped to lead: * Take the back end to the next level by splitting it into multiple databases that each fulfill a specific purpose, and shard our primary data warehouse so it can handle tens of terabytes. The choice of technologies is still to be determined, so a broad range of experience with distributed systems and nosql databases is desirable; * Build an interactive web front end that dynamically displays geospatial data, in the form of both maps and charts. We are looking for a track record delivering interactive web applications, experience with web maps, and good programming skills both server-side and client-side.
Individuals who are creative, honest, open-minded, enterprising, kind and attentionate to details will fit our team the best. The project is incredibly fun and innovative, addresses major societal challenges in the areas of public health and sustainable development, and eyes a huge market opportunity. Come help us grow the company you want to be a part of!
To reach us, e-mail: contact@VDS-corp.com
We make the best application performance monitoring solution, and deliver the only serious SaaS APM. >40K users can't be wrong. It gives deep visibility in production apps running on Ruby, PHP, Python, Java, and .NET (with more on the way) -- AND provides an open platform with which you can integrate customized plugins to monitor your entire stack (newrelic.com/platform) .
Making it easy for our users, however, is hard work for us. Our answer is to hire top notch people, give them whatever they need, and turn them loose to solve tough problems.
We're looking for a number of technical positions (check out the Jobs page), including engineers with skills in Ruby, Node, Python, C, PHP, .NET (to name a few). H1-Bs and relos welcome.
We also take our company culture seriously -- Best Place to Work and all that, of course. But we also provide an unusual and exciting development environment, one where managers are working to enable developers, not the other way around.

AMA Capital trades billions of dollars per day in the foreign exchange markets.
We are all engineers, and we all do a little bit of everything, designing and implementing our own trading strategies and infrastructure. We are a very small team (I am the only employee) and want to add one or two engineers who will focus on strategy and/or on infrastructure. No experience or specific knowledge of finance is required. However, you do need to be at least interested in financial markets and to be able to implement your strategies carefully in C++.
An example of an infrastructure project is designing and building a system for logging to non-volatile memory. We generate large logs that cover everything from prices to transaction data. NVDIMMs are a form of RAM that survives power loss, and such hardware has been on the horizon for a while, but it is just now becoming available to early adopters. Writes to NVDIMMs will be nearly instantaneous and immediately durable. This project will be to develop an NVDIMM-based system that simultaneously functions as a log, an IPC mechanism, and a searchable database for analysis. Making this work will involve a number of pieces: kernel drivers, CPU cache control, lock-free synchronization, a daemon to write everything back to long-term (i.e. less expensive) storage, and more. If this works well, we plan to open-source all the pieces.
Visit http://amacapital.net/careers.html to learn more, and send applications/inquiries to careers@amacapital.net.
We do Big Data Consulting.
There aren't many companies where you can be working with Petabyte-scale clusters but still be at a start-up, but we're one of them. We currently have about 60 employees, but we've certainly had some big-time clients: Facebook, NASDAQ, EMC, Intel, NetApp, ancestry.com... the list goes on. We help our clients plan and build big data platforms and applications, and also provide data science and analytics consulting atop those platforms. We specialize in Hadoop, but really use whatever tool is right for the job.
There's certainly a lot of hype around big data right now, but if you're interested in cutting through the hype to providing real value, Think Big is a great place to do it. Fun work environment, exciting projects, and an industry that is blowing up. What more could you want?
We're hiring engineers, data scientists, project managers, recruiters, and sales executives. Here's our website: http://thinkbiganalytics.com and here are our open positions: http://thinkbiganalytics.com/big_data_openings/open-position...
Location: Anywhere (we're based in Wellington, New Zealand)
We are a small international start-up (there's 7 of us at present) where creativity, transparency and happiness are the company's core values. Our team is a bunch of geeks who love building the most awesomest domain management service on Earth.
So let's have fun() and play with all the nice stuff you always wanted to play with. We've built a stack here at iwantmyname that is both flexible and fun, and we're in need of another hacker to help us turn it into a beauty.
We're currently using modern Perl, Erlang, Coffee Script, Lua, CouchDB, RabbitMQ, Redis, Kyoto Tycoon, Puppet, Vagrant and are looking at a whole lot of new toys to build the best possible experience for our customers.
So if you've run up against company policies around $favorite_toy in production, join us and see it scale or die in flames. If you introduce technology that is not up to scratch yet, put some time aside to contribute back to that project to get it where we need it.
We love open source, we contribute a lot and we want you to be actively contributing to projects or talking at conferences to share your knowledge with the community.

And we love enabling others to have that feeling. So we’re creating the modern data analysis tool, so anyone can get as much value out of their data as a trained expert, and experts can get their insight much faster.
Most statistical analyses are conceptually simple, but existing software requires an unnecessarily large amount of statistical knowledge to ask simple questions. And even experts find these tools time-consuming and painful to use. So most people fall back to the much less powerful Excel (and its PivotTables), spending their time shuffling data around an interface that’s barely changed in 15 years. Statwing democratizes data analysis by making statistics easier to use and interpret than even Excel.
Our investors include Y Combinator, Jeff Hammerbacher (cofounded Cloudera, coined the term "Data Science", built the Facebook data team) and Jason Seats (cofounded Slicehost, runs TechStars Cloud).
We're hiring. More details: https://www.statwing.com/jobs

I personally went through the software development apprenticeship as I wanted to learn how to TDD after working for 4-6 years in the industry and wanting a change. I am posting this because if you are a good candidate for the resident program it is a paid position.
We're looking for a developer to build elegant applications on top of our Platform. You'll be working closely with clients to deliver customised information systems, and building off-the-shelf products for specific markets.
This is an interesting and challenging role for a generalist developer with experience in building web applications. Initially, you'll be using server and client-side JavaScript to build client facing applications. Later, you'll be working on our core Platform, which is written in Ruby, JavaScript and Java.
We're looking for someone who wants to learn as much as they can about developing and deploying hosted software. This is a great opportunity to work with experienced developers in a small team, where everyone learns from each other, and everyone works on every aspect of our software and service.
Feel free to email me with any questions, my contact details are in my profile.

DramaFever is a young, ambitious and rapidly growing online video start-up that specializes in international entertainment. The company was founded in 2009 and initially focused on content from Asia, but has recently expanded into providing Spanish language programming as well. Partners include Hulu.
DramaFever's engineering team is currently seeking Full Stack and Back-end Developers (Python, Go, Django, Redis, AWS), Linux sysadmins, Devops pros, and Android developers.
Technology decisions are made for the right reasons at DramaFever, recognizing that sometimes right includes "what would be most interesting" -- our image processors and some analytics pieces are now Go. We've got a mandate to be "available everywhere", which means we're on or soon to be on every major mobile OS and every home theater platform.
The backend stack is ever evolving with new services and tools being added all the time. We use a 3rd party service when it's cost efficient and sufficiently flexible and build stand-alone in house services when that makes the most sense. Our level of automation is quite high with chef+vagrant and per-dev micro-instances for development, Jenkins built docker containers for deployments, and autoscaling in place for all production services.
Our development practices are always being refined -- last week we eliminated timesheets. We spec in google docs, keep code and issues in Github, and review (all) code in pull requests. IRC is for engineering battlestations or deciding from where we'll order lunch. Pick your own editor, OS, browser, and tooling so long as you know how to configure its whitespace settings.
Simple Energy
Djagno Engineers, DevOps Engineers.
Simple Energy uses social game mechanics to change how people save energy and how utilities engage customers. They make saving energy “social, fun and simple.”
By engaging people on the platforms they already use, including email, Facebook, web, and mobile applications, and making energy usage data into a simple scoring system that allows people to compete with their friends and neighbors online, Simple Energy motivates people to become interested in their own energy use and take action to reduce consumption. The system is based on leading behavioral economics and game mechanics research by scientific advisor Dan Ariely, author of Predictably Irrational and The Upside of Irrationality. Results from a recent pilot program show that the platform can produce an average energy savings of 20% with up to 50% in savings for top performers.

Full-stack senior rails developer needed at our fast-growing Rails consultancy. We need full-time people, as well as part-time freelancers who want to build their own projects while working with us.

Intrans
Ruby Engineers, Android
The last 50 years has seen the reinvention of almost every major industry except for one: Trucking. Intrans 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 trucks, the country would grind to a halt overnight. In such a massive market, it's hard to believe that the entire industry today still runs on phones and fax machines. This means hundreds of millions of dollars worth of freight capacity goes unfilled every month due to the old-school inefficiencies of the industry.
We are changing that. We use our location-based technology to automatically match supply and demand.
If you're ready to transform the trucking industry, send your resume and GitHub profile to jobs@intrans.com.

Square! In October 2012, we acquired the design firm 80/20 and have had New York based colleagues for some time now. Our logical next step was to bootstrap a NYC Engineering presence to tap in the growing community here. We just started building the Engineering team in July.
As a company, we have four main focuses.
Go international. We're adapting what made us successful in the US abroad. This is harder than typical international plays since it requires translating our four major benefits to small merchants: 1. Shipping readers, 2. Card payments (physical world is much more complex than online), 3. Sending money quickly to our merchants, a.k.a. settlement: very localized and next-day is hard on a number of fronts), 4. Assessing risk of merchants as they sign up, aka underwriting: again, very localized most countries do have FICO scores, SSN, D&B numbers and such.
Move up market. One of the biggest success of Square is to have enabled merchants who were "non-consumers" to start accepting credit cards. In classic disruptor fashion, we have essentially alonged the long tail. We haven't been eating someone else's lunch, we've created a whole new category! Now it's time to move up to bigger merchants.
The other side of the counter. With Wallet, Square Market (http://squareup.com/market) and Square Cash (http://squareup.com/cash), we're going on the other side of the counter and interacting directly with consumers. We think that we can provide the best experience for consumer-to-merchant and consumer-to-consumer commerce. We're at the infancy, but extremely well positioned to succeed.
Data as product. We're leveraging our data. We know a lot about our merchants: daily sales, seasonality, growth of their business, correlation with other events (e.g. Mapping Square Payments During the Super Bowl). Lots of innovative products are in the making which will highlight the breadth of what we do.
In NYC, we're starting with a focus on infrastructure, distributed systems, and money moving systems. We're a small team, located in SoHo, and defining the culture of engineering for Square on the East Coast.
If you're interested; I'd love to chat. Shoot me an e-mail with your resume! seantabor@squareup.com

My name is Sebastian, and I am the CTO at Aircloak. Aircloak is a young and well-funded startup working on privacy preserving data processing and analytics. We are a spinout from the German Max-Planck Institute for Software System research institute and receive a lot of backing and support from the institute and their extended network.
Our technology allows us to process highly private streams of data and only ever make fully anonymous data available to our customers. One of the features that make our system unique is that no one, including operators, customers, and ourselves, ever has access to the sensitive raw data. This property holds true even after we update the software running on the machines processing the sensitive data!
You should:
- be intelligent
- have a good sense of humour
- be an amazing programmer
- wish to change the world
The founding team consists of recent University of Cambridge graduates and a director at the Max-Planck Institute. In the past months we have also been joined by two excellent engineers. The work environment is highly international and diverse, and we would like to keep it that way.
We are looking to hire one additional engineer, and are in the lucky position where we can afford to be picky with whom we choose. Our team is distributed, and we would therefore expect you to work remotely as well. We would prefer if you were located within one or two timezones of our own (UTC+2). We offer good and stable salary, generous equity, exciting problems to solve, and a fabulous team, and in turn expect you to be driven, social, and good at solving problems.
We hope to hear from you. Please email us at jobs@aircloak.com if you have any questions!

We're a fully distributed team (see http://bit.ly/distributed-teams for a post by me, the CTO) -- which is to say, a merit-based, technology-forward, super-bright team of Pythonistas who happen to collaborate using the same methods of major open web projects like Wikipedia, Wordpress, Ubuntu, and Mozilla.
We just closed a $5M series A round. As a result, we're looking to expand our engineering team. We are looking for full-stack engineers and senior engineers, especially focused on our backend analytics technology.
Experience with high write performance DBs (e.g. Redis, Cassandra), large-scale log analysis (e.g. Hadoop, Pig, Hive), and big distributed cloud systems (e.g. >20 node cloud deployments) will mean you'll hit the ground running here.
You'd be joining the company at a great time. Our engineering team is still small enough that we feel like an elite task force, but unlike two years ago, we are making millions in revenue and have a ridiculous amount of data to draw insight out of on behalf of our customers.
You should be an expert in a mainstream programming language, preferably Python or JavaScript. You should be willing to learn, or already know, technologies like Tornado, MongoDB, Redis, Solr, Postgres, Cassandra, Pig, Storm, and Amazon Web Services. You should be extremely handy at a UNIX command line, possessing all the skills of a sysadmin.
Also, if you happen to be an experienced software engineer who wants to end up in a role with a mixture of product management, customer interaction, and individual contributions to the code, we have just the position for you. Let us know -- we're looking for you. But we're also looking for DevOps candidates to help us manage our systems and great backend engineers to help us build a powerful and robust analytics system for our customers and the high-performance APIs they depend upon.
If you join us, you'll be part of a well-funded and high-revenue SaaS analytics company that is rewriting the rules of online media. Our software aggregates data on over 5 billion pageviews per month of traffic, and we work with major media companies as customers, such as The Atlantic, Arstechnica, Mashable, The New Republic, MIT Technology Review, and many more.
Get in touch with us directly at hello@parsely.com if you are interested -- mention HN and ask for Andrew.
Senior Web Engineer
About us:
- Bootstrapped and Profitable
- 17 people, 7 programmers
- Flexible work hours (our designer is backpacking Europe)
- Really great pay, retirement, health and dental, etc.
- Rails
- AngularJS
- MongoDB
- We are a SaaS company for lead management and automation.
- Typically do 40 writes/sec
- We are rewriting our main Java app in Rails/AngularJS/MongoDB, it has a table with over a trillion rows...
I am a Ruby/Rails dev that switched to using Clojure and Node.js, depending on the use cases. I wouldn't want to use Ruby for anything else than static sites and tooling now. Some people think that Javascript is a gimmick, but is it vastly superior to Ruby when it comes to concurrency, ability to share back-end and front-end code, and the tools have gotten really good too.
PS: I wouldn't necessarily recommend switching from Java to Scala, the benefits may be low or negative for most people, see Yammer's experience: http://www.infoq.com/news/2011/11/yammer-scala
We have 4 different apps; one of the major ones is already using Rails/EventMachine to power it and we've learned how to scale it.
I'm not sure why Node.js wasn't seriously considered for this rewrite, but if I had to guess, it's because we didn't want to take the time to learn a new thing, we've got a legacy system that badly needs customers migrated off it, and shipping something soon is paramount.
I'm sure at some later date, we'll move all our stuff to JS. It seems inevitable with the way things are currently headed.
All of our other apps are on a Rails/Mongo stack. Most of our dev team is Rails and figured it'd be easier to hire Senior Rails hackers than Java folks.
Lucid Software is building world class graphical applications in the browser and on mobile devices. Our first product, Lucidchart (http://www.lucidchart.com), is an online diagramming application with 1M+ users.

Lucid is a startup founded by Karl Sun, a former Google exec, and Ben Dilts, our CTO. We're profitable and rapidly growing in every dimension of the business and need people to join our team. For fun we raft river rapids on company retreats, have Friday BBQs, and eat lots of pizza. Talent and ability to learn are more important than specific skills.
BACKEND SOFTWARE ENGINEER (all experience levels) - Lucidchart and Lucidpress run with various decoupled services in a Linux environment using Scala, MongoDB, AWS, and MySQL.

We build Docker: www.docker.io, an Open Source tool enabling anyone to run those Linux Containers very easily. Containers boot 1000x faster than virtual machines; their disk and memory footprint are also much lower; and they work on virtually all current platforms (from physical servers to public cloud instances). We think that they are the future of virtualization, and will soon become ubiquitous.

Scribd ("Netflix for eBooks", top 100 website, 35 people) is hiring talented hackers of all kinds to help us build the library of the 21st century.
We've hired SIX full-time people and TONS of interns from these "Who is Hiring" threads, including two this past summer ... 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 (well, we use Coffeescript)
* iOS / Android
* Machine Learning / data mining / recommendations - think Netflix prize!
* Back-end infrastructure: scalability, web crawling, big data, data warehousing, 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've hired people from these threads with everywhere from 0 to 10 years of experience.
We're profitable, very well funded and have a really fun office environment (go-karts + a rock climbing wall!). 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. We are always looking for international people interested in moving to the US and can help you secure a visa.
We just launched a service that's being called the "Netflix for books" and are really excited about it. Read more here: http://www.wired.com/business/2013/10/scribd_book_subscripti...

Software you write at Codified will directly influence healthcare decisions for thousands of patients. We're looking for experienced software engineers who are up to that challenge to join our small team (currently 2 founders and 1 employee).
At Codified your responsibilities will be wide - you will probably end up touching every piece of software we write, with an emphasis on our user-facing applications.
We have a large number of interesting projects under active development, spanning natural language processing, machine learning, user interface design and sequence analysis.
Skills & Requirements We're looking for software engineers. We are currently using GWT (Java) and MySQL with some scripting in Python and deploy to a Linux (CentOS) environment. We will need you to rapidly be productive with these tools if you are not familiar with them already. Additionally, you'll help us grow our team over the next few months as we continue to add engineers.
A willingness to learn is more important to us than a Biology background, but the position will require you to become familiar with the Biology that underlies what we do.
About the company We write software to help clinicians interpret exome sequence data from their patients. To do this, we aggregate large amounts of additional data on individual genes and variants, and apply a series of proprietary algorithms. We’re a young company (founded in March 2013) that is profitable with our existing customers and continuing to grow.

LIFFFT is a consulting company built by some of the most experienced Startup Weekend facilitators in the world. We started this company so we could get very, very good at early stage product development - specifically using Customer Development and Lean Startup methodologies.
Our goal is two-fold: 1) Consult with large and enterprise companies to help them learn and adapt these product development methodologies into their own organizations. We have done extensive work with Nordstrom and their Innovation Lab, and have recently been expanding our client base.
2) Use the consulting to bootstrap our own products, which we will spin out into separate companies. You laugh and say that's what everyone tries to do, but we have already successfully done this once.
What we are looking for We're looking for iOS developers with experience leading and teaching groups, who don't believe in reinventing the circle (much less the wheel) every time you run into a problem, and who believe in a "Discover the problem, then build the solution" approach to building products.
Email: Zachary@liffft.com if you're interested. Please include any links (resume, linkedin, github, portfolio, etc etc) you feel are relevant.

Currently, we are using Backbone, Pure CSS, Handlebars, Grunt, and Casper and Phantom for CI.
A little background on the company: Nutonian is changing the way people interact with their data to understand the hidden mathematical relationships there. Backed by Atlas Ventures we are very well funded (Series A was announced last Wed, a $4m deal) and in a unique position to capitalize on the convergence of trends in big data and machine learning.
Our core technology, built upon years of academic research at Cornell University, automatically finds all the interesting relationships in data sets. Our current products have been used by over 30,000 people, a testament to its power and commercial reach. Our team is still small - everyone has a large impact, knows the CEO personally, and will create and own the core technology components that make up our company's product. Like other high performance teams, while we work hard, we also play hard with regular company meals, dinners, and social outings.

We're building Inck, an app to help first time programmer students think. Inck teaches them a new approach to thinking and communication that incorporates rhythm into the process. Through the same interface, Inck also provides mechanisms for them to engage in Generative Programming to build one of a menu of useful programs. Students choose what to build based on their own requirements for a software agent to help make their PCs more productive. The first prototype of Inck will be released on Jan 14th, 2014 to students at a local high tech institute.
Inck is written in C for the (old) Windows platform. Your work, to start with, will mostly involve programming. Over time, as you internalize the product idea, you will become more involved with product definition and the productization process (higher level stuff).
We pay you a market rate salary and upon successful completion of a six month probation process, we give you 1% equity in the company. We work a 36 hour, six hours a day, six day work week. Our work environment is intense and challenges you to grow. Allahabad is a laid back town with an academic tilt. This position provides you an opportunity to learn a lot of good engineering while at the same time share in the success of a new company. You will be working with a founder, CEO with over 20 years of experience in the industry and excellent academic and professional credentials.
To apply, go through our website, then send me an email at rohit@khitchdee.com. We're very selective in our hiring and haven't hired anyone yet.

Our team have worked at companies like Spotify, Zipcar, M-Pesa and McKinsey, and we have successful and influential investors and advisors on board with highly relevant backgrounds who are helping us achieve our vision.
We are looking for folks who were geeky about money when they were kids (their lemonade stand went international!) and understand how technology can be used to empower and educate.

Stat.io is building a web application that lets people use open data to improve decision-making. Our vision is to aggregate data from hundreds of open data portals, which can then be accessed in one place. You can see a very early demo of the application over here:
The challenge is to understand millions of datasets from many different sources, from APIs to Excel files, and then provide an interface that allows users to find the data they're interested in.
The main technologies we're using for data processing are Python and MySQL, with a bit of Redis and MongoDB for some simple queueing and logging respectively. We're open to using any technologies if it helps get us closer to our vision. For instance, there's a good chance that alternative data stores to MySQL would be a better fit for the problems we face.
We're looking for a software developer to join us, initially part-time. If you're interested or have any questions, get in touch: contact@stat.io.

BloomReach is a small, fast-growing startup with offices in Mountain View, CA and Bangalore, India, and we’re tackling one of the Internet’s most fundamental problems: helping leading online businesses get their high quality and relevant content found by their consumers, when and where they want it.
BloomReach’s big data applications and technology drive revenue by consuming web wide and site data to interpret consumer demand and deliver relevant user experiences on any marketing channel.

We are looking for full time engineers.
Android Engineer
You know you can have it your way. You see fragmentation as an opportunity, not the apocalypse. You went to see Jobs just to throw Jelly Beans at the screen. The apps you write at Perka will change the world.
iOS Engineer
You're ready to take the NeXTStep into Flatland. You know when to follow the rules and when to break them. You think it's hip to use square brackets. You'll write the apps that make the whole world sing.
Java Platform Engineer
You like big data and you cannot lie. Millions of transactions? No biggie. You eat NP-Complete problems for breakfast. You were born to develop in Java, and you'll be working on the hot molten core of Perka.
JavaScript Engineer
You wield the powers of the Prototype, and you're not afraid to expose your Backbone.js. You read the W3C specs over a bowl of oatmeal. Millions of users will be logging into the applications you write.
Site Reliability Engineer
You'd rather spend two hours automating a one hour task, just to be ready for next time. You check your email using Telnet. You want to be the wizard behind the Perka server curtain.
Software Test Engineer
You love to break stuff. There's a glitch in the Matrix and you know where it is. You're beyond detail-oriented, and if you order it with extra pickles, there better be extra pickles.

Looking to do something different, meaningful and help build a product from the ground up which will save lives of some of the most vulnerable people in the world every day? Perhaps your looking for an interesting side-project or just a break from the commercial treadmill?
An early stage human rights start-up (the founder has just spent five years at another human rights startup which he helped setup and is now a market leader) in East London (still in the fun garage shed stage!), is looking for a mobile app developer or CTO. (Also people with associated skills such as LAMP, UI/UX, HTML5, etc would be great)
The start-up focuses on addressing a significant gap in the security of human rights organisations, journalists and activists - through the use of a web and mobile application. It builds on years of cutting-edge security operations in this field.
With the product features and business plan nearly complete we are looking for the right person to bring us to the next technical stage. Ideally you will be in London but remote working is also a possibility.
Interested? Drop a mail to secfirstmd@gmail.com
---------------------------------------
We are a small team passionate about making people's lives better through software.
A little bit about us:
- We write custom software of all shapes and sizes for clients all over the US
- Though everyone here is fluent in Ruby, we don't artificially limit ourselves.
In the past few months, I've worked with Objective-C, Backbone.js (inside
PhoneGap), Angular.js, Ruby (of course) and a little bit of Java and C#.
- We practice a sustainable pace. We recognize that we each have lives,
activities, and families outside of work. Late nights and > 40 hour weeks are
rare by design.
- We're agile, but not dogmatic about it. Our process evolves to suit our needs.
- We offer competitive salaries, health/vision/dental insurance, quarterly profit
sharing, retirement + match, weekly catered lunches, and a top-floor office
with snacks, guitars, and your choice of standing or sitting desks.
- 2.5 hours from Chicago and Detroit, less than an hour to the beach.
- Lots of great beer. Founders Brewery (a mile from our office) has 3 beers in
the Beer Advocate top 15. HopCat is a “World Class” bar on BA.
Just look here: http://beeradvocate.com/beerfly/city/43
- If you’re renting anything larger than a breadbox in the Bay Area or NYC,
you can afford a house here. I bought a nice house with a mortgage payment
30% lower than the rent of my 1 bedroom apartment in Mountain View.
- A growing technology and startup community.
- You love writing software, and you have a few years of experience doing it.
- You learn new stuff quickly. You’ve used a lot of technologies, but you’re not
afraid to use more. It would be nice if you use and love Ruby, but not required.
- You believe software is written for humans, not computers.
- You want to come into work every day and enjoy the people you work with.

Videology Group - http://www.videologygroup.com/
Internet advertising startup looking primarily for server-side Java developers (if your Java is rusty but you're good, drop us a note anyway). I was working for a start-up called LucidMedia Networks (hence the "lmn" in the e-mail address below), which got acquired by Videology. The Baltimore office is a .NET shop, but the Reston office is Java on *nix (Mac for dev, Linux in production, and no plans to use Microsoft anything for development). Our stack is Java on Spring with MySQL and some NoSQL stores on AWS. We have some big projects in the works involving big data and volume as we scale globally and across mediums (video, mobile, etc.). Currently, our Reston platform alone handles 4 billion requests a day.

We make the best application AND mobile performance monitoring solution, and deliver the only serious SaaS APM. It gives deep visibility in production apps running on Ruby, PHP, Python, Java, and .NET (with more platforms on the way). Over 50,000 developer/users have used our tools.
Making it easy for our users, however, is hard work. Our answer is to hire top notch people and then turn them loose to solve tough problems as only they can.

We also take our company culture seriously -- Best Place to Work and all that, of course. But we also provide an unusual and exciting development environment, one where managers are working to enable developers, not the other way around.

We have open reqs for Javascript developers, Rails developers and Mobile developers (Android, iOS and Windows). While experienced engineers are certainly welcome, we have a strong pairing culture in Denver and have had outstanding success with entry-level engineers over the past six months. If you've got some talent with web development, have a github profile and don't mind booger jokes, we'd love to talk. We have an online coding test at http://www.interviewzen.com/apply/3QPLHn that shouldn't take much more than 10 minutes.
I could post the official reqs here, but essentially, we're looking for people who are smart and comfortable doing a variety of things. We have web-based products written in Scala, Node.js, Rails, Java and even some C out there, and while we don't expect anyone to be fluent in all of them, we look for people who are willing to be flexible and excited at the chance to stretch themselves.
If you're interested, please give me a buzz - my e-mail is in my profile. I'd love to chat.

Apartment Investors are overwhelmed by their data, and the giants are focused on big-data solutions, but reality says otherwise.

We're developing the solution our customers have been clamoring for.
Join our team of 5 people, and come make a big difference in an industry of dinosaurs. Our existing customers are all very happy, and we have a ton more waiting for their rollout of the software. We use Python/Django/Postgres on the backend and CoffeeScript with Backbone.Marionette on the frontend. Our team is based in SF, but we're happy to relocate you.

Come join Iterable, the next generation email optimization company.
Email usage is changing, but the technology and capabilities haven't caught up to the 21st century. We're a small team of hackers and thinkers who are creating the next generation email optimization platform. Our team has experience at big tech companies (Twitter, Google, SIG) and we want to bring and improve the technology that powers user growth and commerce at these places to everyone. This means writing code that improves the lives of our customers (series seed and series A companies) and their millions of email subscribers.
One of our top level goals is to build a uniquely fun and growth oriented company culture. This is a journey, not a rat race.

Some aspects of our culture that make us different: - We are all very focused on self improvement - Our company has egalitarian and transparent values: work when you want, on what you want. - We are chill and empathetic people - The company is completely transparent
You'll get to work with us at our office at Kleiner Perkins' startup incubation space in SoMa.

(Rated as a "Crain's NYC 2013 Best Places to Work"! http://www.crainsnewyork.com/article/20131009/SMALLBIZ/13100...)
We're a small-business data aggregator charged with getting the "last mile" SMB data (menus, services, hours of operation, address, etc.) for all businesses in the US (restaurants, spas, salons, etc.) and providing that in an API for our publisher network (YellowPages, Yelp, FourSquare, Seamless, #{Your App}, etc.) to distribute it far and wide.
Our customers (small and medium sized businesses) love us and we're taking an active role bringing them more customers - and helping them stay in business. It's a great mission, and I hope you'll want to be a part of it.
We primarily work with Node.js/Couch and Python/Django for our merchant tools (what the SMBs use) and AWS/Ansible on the Ops end.
We're looking for both senior and mid-level frontend, backend, ops, and QA people. Although we're a part of a bigger company (were acquired by ConstantContact almost two years ago), we're still a startup at heart. You'll be a member of a small but strong product team, doing fun things, working with great people. But you won't have to worry about whether or not we're broke next week, won't have to take a below-market salary, forgo awesome health insurance -- and your stock options actually have value (https://www.google.com/finance?q=NASDAQ:CTCT)!

We’re an early-stage startup focused on making content distribution easy and fun! We love our work and what we’re learning and building together.
We are currently seeking a few developers to join the team and help us reach our goals. Our web stack is based on Symfony, a custom implementation of SpineJS / CoffeeScript and MongoDB. Ideally you’re also experienced with Stylus / NIB, enjoy analytics and have some front end skills (Ajax, HTML5, CSS3).
If we’ve interested you, tell us your story at jobs@vuzum.com.
We at Likeable Local are looking to grow our team and seeking two talented and motivated software engineers. One immediate role would be perfect for someone who is great with numbers and analytics. The other role is better suited towards someone who loves working in the front-end and loves making things look and interact beautifully- with html, javascript, and css. In both cases the engineers should love building cool things, learning, and social media. We are in Portland, Maine which is atypical for Hacker News, but is a great place to live! We aren't looking for remote workers at this time.
We are a tech-startup-spinoff of the award-winning (NYC-based) agency Likeable Media, and we are looking for people that are willing to jump right in and be on our small team (currently 3 other full-time developers) creating features that will be visible and impactful and used immediately.
We are hard-working and smart, and we love to solve challenging problems. We use a lot of node.js, javascript, python, django, and the Oxford comma.
You love being a substantial contributor and are interested in the “full stack” of technologies from details of server configuration, back-end, front-end, and mobile platforms. You are self-disciplined, self-directed, but also detail-oriented in your communication about what choices you make and what you are doing.
Likeable Local offers an integrated software solution that allows small businesses to create, enhance and manage their social media presence. Likeable Local was founded in 2012 and has a deployed product that integrates with Facebook and Twitter. The software is sold on a subscription basis, allowing for attractive recurring revenue economics, and is in use by dentists, dry cleaners, florists, and jewelers and we continue to expand.
Interested? Email me at hugh@likeable.com and lets connect!
Access to talent may not be as plentiful here as elsewhere but in a smaller world it is also easier to be found by prospective hires. If anyone out there is searching for software development jobs here in Portland, Maine they should be able to find us- although we've got lots of work to do there... But anyway, if you're interested in learning more about this area let me know what else I can tell you!
We build startups and work on a lot of open-source and internal projects. We act as CTO and development team for hire for early-stage startups, giving guidance, advice, and actually building their startup. We have some pretty cool new projects we're getting ready to release as well.
We work primarily with Ruby and JavaScript, but use other things as we see fit.

Developing good 3D printing software is hard. Sometimes NP hard. This can mean attacking the legendary salesman problem, the trunk packing problem, orientation and structure optimization problems, as well as mesh topological characterization and reconstruction. It’s no wonder that 3D printing software solutions are found lacking. At Formlabs, we are confronting these challenges head on to make 3D printing as easy as 2D printing. If you are a full stack developer up to these and other challenges in desktop software development, we want you on the Form Team.

At Gro Ventures, we are pioneering agricultural supercomputing as a means to transform Africa into a breadbasket for the world in a span of 20 years. African agriculture is riddled with inefficiencies rooted in the lack of free-flowing, real-time information—a necessary component for data-driven reform and the creation of a truly functional commodities market. Data visualization is at the heart of agricultural supercomputing, defined as the integration of various technologies widely used around the world today to create the first real-time agricultural data analytics platform for Africa. Through agroinformatics and state of the art data visualization, we will for the first time in Africa’s history allow real time data driven decision making.
The project will consist of building several customized web visualizations based off the results of an agricultural study of several countries. We are seeking individuals or teams who can develop a visualization application consisting of pricing, yield, weather and various other economic and commodities driven data.

Our Mission: Make the web work for real estate. Bridging the gap between real estate professionals and their clients. Real estate is the largest industry in the world. It’s also one of the most important—after all, everyone needs a place to live. Millions of consumers are looking for their next home online, and they expect the same kind of browsing and buying experience they get on sites like Amazon and Facebook. Unfortunately, real estate agents are struggling to provide that experience. That’s where Placester comes in. We’re creating an industry where it's quick and simple for real estate professionals to get their information on the web. Don’t let that simple description fool you. We’re addressing the hardest problem in the largest industry in the world. As you might have guessed, not everything is written on the home page yet.
Our Culture: Team. Join the team that makes a difference in a big, complex industry. Our culture is all about teamwork. That being said, we're composed of folks who are their own brand of brilliant, focused, fun, intense, and friendly. If you've ever worked on a high performing team you've experienced this mix before. You’ll be expected to get things done and be responsible for making it happen, without any bureaucratical mess. You’ll be expected to identify problems and solve them on your own. But more importantly, you may need to rally a friend or team to overcome them. Both are key tools on your belt. You’ll be expected to have an opinion because it will matter when shaping the outcome of your company.
Opinions are about courage: to speak your mind and to change it. Everyone laughs a lot over lunch. Topics range from the standard technical, tactical and whos-doing-what in the start up world; but they also weave through topics like the proper structure for the US debt, that great restaurant down the street or how to Sous-vide the perfect piece of meat. Brilliance isn’t one-dimensional.

Founded in 2011, Likely is at the forefront of social media data collection and analysis having helped companies such as Coca-Cola and the British Government develop highly engaging, relevant presences online.
We analyse billions of social interactions – such as follows, shares and comments – to better understand how people cluster around things they are passionate about.

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 have roughly 4,000 R&D employees, so work is very diverse across the company. Teams are roughly 4-8 people at the lowest level and group up into larger organizations organized by product type (equities, fixed income, etc.). I happen to work on infrastructure for the Professional service (aka Terminal). Our team has very little interaction with anything finance related and most of our work is related to evolving the entire platform forward and making forward-looking changes. Back in 2005, we converted all of our higher-level "app" development to server-side JS (custom, Spidermonkey based) and now run probably the largest server-side JS stack in the world (~20MM LOC). We migrated a lot of our GUI toolkit to be scripted as well (LUA this time) to allow us to more easily evolve it. And now we're evolving it, embedding WebKit and pushing bugfixes and feature enhancements to do what we need (our fork is on GH). We're helping define and implement CSS3 Grid spec and help implement ES6 generators among other things. We built and run a third-party app store within the Terminal. Over the past decade we've rebuilt the C++ foundation of the company from the ground up, starting with our own STL implementation using the Lakos allocator model (Lakos and a few other C++ committee members work here). We have a huge wealth of awesome C++ libraries that we started open-sourcing and will continue to add more layers as time goes by.
All of what I mentioned above is stuff done by the infrastructure team, and we're a tiny percentage of the overall R&D population. Other teams get to do fun stuff as well. The mortgage team ported long-running ABS OAS calculations from Linux farms to GPU clusters and wrote a Python based cash flow engine from the ground up, potentially helping define the SEC's Python-files-must-be-included rules.
We run a worldwide network with somewhere around 35,000 circuits in 180+ countries. We ingest anywhere from 45-60 billion "ticks" daily aggregate from feeds in all of these countries. We normalize, scrub, and then re-distribute all this data to customers in all of those countries in an efficient manner. The Terminal provides analytic and visualization tools to work with market data, as well as the same tools to work with news and alerts. On the news side, we ingest over 80,000 news feeds (e.g. WSJ would be one "feed") from around the world and do the same kind of processing, applying ML for sentiment and topic classification, etc. We also design our own hardware in-house -- everything from keyboards and monitors, to custom ASICs for authentication/subscription tokens and PCIe hardware security modules for our certificate infrastructure. The web side (bloomberg.com, businessweek.com, BGOV, BLAW, Black, etc) uses mostly Rails stacks and everything you would expect to find in a web shop.
Oh, and we have a TV station, radio station, etc. They innovate too. Bloomberg TV is the first non-OTA channel to be distributed via Aereo, for instance :)
We could use a motto like "We do a lot of stuff."

One of our favorite recent examples is Junot Diaz's amazing annotations on an excerpt from his own The Brief Wondrous Life of Oscar Wao (http://poetry.rapgenius.com/Junot-diaz-the-brief-wondrous-li...).

Spire is hiring a solid developer and technology big-thinker excited about working on the ground in Kenya.
We’re a small team with a big vision: reinventing higher education from scratch. What would University look like if we scrapped our current model and started over? We think it will blend incredibly high-quality offline teaching and mentoring from real teachers (think the best charter schools in the country), not professors, with free but super high-quality flipped-classroom online learning (think EdX, Coursera), and a new model of apprenticeship so students leave school ready for anything. We’re launching in Kenya early next year and aim to quickly expand across Africa.
We’re looking for a versatile team member who can lead everything from our high-level technology strategy (When do we invest in building our own platform? Do our students use tablets or laptops?) to the nuts and bolts of our hardware decisions, front-end development and basic back-end (e.g., Rails + HTML/CSS + very basic devops on top of Heroku or AWS). This hire will be the founding member of our technology team.
Our dream hire is creative and resourceful but also ambitious – we’d love this person to grow with us into a VP or CTO-type role over the next few years.
About us:
- We’re taking on what we think is one of the biggest problems in the world - We’re a social enterprise and are funded so far with $1M+ in non-dilutive seed grants with another $1M on the way - Our non-profit sister organization kepler.org, where we’re also part of the founding team, got more than 2,500 applications for our first 50 spots and has been written up in Scientific American, Fast Company, and The Chronicle of Higher Education, who thinks our work will be a model for the US. - We’re in Kenya but are open to discussing some remote work for the right candidate - Competitive salary, generous equity awards depending on experience and awesome, inspiring teammates
About you:
- At least a couple years of experience building things, ideally front-end and back-end - Agile generalist and resourceful problem solver - Excited about a tech role that goes beyond getting people to click on ads
Anything you've built or designed (Github profile, personal web apps, design portfolio, etc) that you can include in your application much appreciated!

We're an early stage product incubator located in sunny Guadalajara, Mexico that was founded by an ex-Bay Area startup exec 4 years ago. We turn out products, about 3-4 per year, based on our own ideas. The ones that go well, we reinvest in. Those that don't, we bury in the yard. We also invest in, mentor, and incubate local startups targeting the Latin American market. We're at the center of the rapidly emerging startup boom in Mexico. Mostly though, we have a lot of fun.
We're giving a few developers the opportunity to rethink their life priorities and get out of Dodge for a while. You're startup is flagging? Sick of the fog? Commute got you down? Just broke up with your partner? Why not pull the rip cord and come work with us for a while?
What do we have to offer? * A vibrant, biggish (pop. 4M), student-oriented city, that's full of hip bars, restaurants, and (really) beautiful, friendly people. * A work environment that is, hands down, the hippest place to work in Mexico. Imagine programming in the hammock - poolside (yes, we have a pool). * Use of the beach house. We have a 3 story beach house with all mod cons, 20 feet from a graceful, immaculate sandy bay in a small fishing village. Also, one of the premier left point surf breaks is 5 minutes away by boat (which we also have). * A chance to learn (or practice your Spanish). * An opportunity to be at ground zero for one of the most vibrant and rapidly expanding startup scenes in the world. * Beef up your resume with experience in navigating the business climate in Mexico and Latin America. * and, finally, ALMOST NO MONEY. Okay, not entirely true - you'll be paid a very tidy wage (by mexican standards) which will allow you to live well here - most things are cheap here. However, if you compare what you'll make here versus what you're making now? It will be a disappointing exercise. Said differently, if money is what you're after - then this is not for you. If you're looking for adventure, fun, and to challenge your self with something new - welcome to your new home!!!
Who are we looking for? It's all listed on the website: http://www.agavelab.com/hiring/ but in summary: HTML/CSS/Javascript kung fu Mobile dev skills (android or iOS) Server dev skills Community managers/growth hacking
Our technology stack is HTML5, CSS3, Java, NodeJS, MongoDB, Play Framework, Scala. But don't worry if you don't know these. As long as you have a very solid command of at least one programming language (Java, C, C++, Python, etc) and are smart as a whip, we can teach you the rest. We expect the same things that any software development shop would: ability to write clean, well-documented code, familiarity with Dev Environments (Xcode, CodeIgniter/Play/Angular/etc.), experience with Agile/Scrum concepts, etc. Culturally we look for self-starters that can thrive with very little guidance and who have a genuine passion of solving complex problems. You should also like beer (or not be afraid to watch others consume large quantities of it), music, the sun, and tacos.) Oh yes, and a sense of humor - you'll want to bring that too. You want to know more? Of course you do. Check out the site: www.agavelab.com or drop us an email. Maybe download/visit a few of our apps and check them out. Or read some of our press: http://pandodaily.com/2013/05/21/how-a-valley-veteran-found-... http://www.nytimes.com/2013/09/22/world/americas/for-migrant... http://venturebeat.com/2013/09/23/agave-lab-throws-sparks-on... We hope to hear from you soon.
REMOTE, H1B, INTERN
Our goal is to make the human genome practically useful for life-altering decisions.
We've invented the Counsyl Test, a breakthrough diagnostic intended for parents planning to start a family. The test won the Wall Street Journal Innovation Award for Medicine, was named one of Scientific American's "Top 10 World Changing Ideas," and was featured in the New York Times. Our test is now prescribed by physicians for more than 12% of all carrier screens in the United States.
The cost of sequencing human genomes is plunging - over 5x faster than the cost of computing; the potential impact on preventive healthcare and the medical landscape is boundless. The science is there but the scale isn't. That's where Counsyl comes in. We are building the technology platform to make genomics useful and accessible to everyone.
TechCrunch article: http://techcrunch.com/2013/04/23/counsyl
The vast majority of our operations are powered by our own custom-built infrastructure on a Python/Django/Postgres stack, from ordering to lab processing to billing. We’re building new tools, new workflows, and new infrastructure to solve the challenging problems of a technology startup involved with not just bits, but also interconnected physical components like lab robotics and patient samples.
Don’t be intimidated if you don’t have a genomics background; solving these problems fundamentally requires software solutions. We’re looking for the best and brightest software engineers — strong generalists with solid CS fundamentals and practical software engineering intuition — to help us scale up genomics to billions of users.
Prerequisites:
- BS, MS or PhD in Computer Science or equivalent experience - Strong software engineering fundamentals: design, testing, version control - Significant independent programming experience as demonstrated by a GitHub account, personal web page, or prior experience.
We like to see experience with:
- Python, Django, CoffeeScript, Backbone.js, Bootstrap, HTML5, CSS - NumPy, SciPy, scikit-learn -Relational database systems, such as PostgreSQL - Unix, Git, and other command line tools

The Go Circuit (http://gocircuit.org) is hiring Systems Engineers.
Original job posting: http://blog.gocircuit.org/job-system-engineer
PROJECT
The Go Circuit is a development, distribution and execution environment for a new generation of self-sustained distributed applications. The circuit is built almost entirely in the Go language with occasional appearances of C and C++. It spans the entire lifecycle of an application, from development to execution and sustanance. It comprises technologies like compilers, interpreters, optimizers, low-level operating system management, distributed resource sharing, information flow, security, and many others. The Go Circuit is, by design, open source.
The goal of the circuit is to enable the possibility of encoding an entire Internet company's infrastructure in a single executable, which can be revived with a single click on an ice-cold cluster of empty hardware and can sustain itself indefinitely, without human involvement, short of the requisite replacement of hardware now and again.
The demonstrated, over the past year, power of the circuit environment has compelled industry, academic and government institutions to sponsor the project and become involved with large-scale deployments. We are, henceforth, expanding.
RESPONSIBILITIES
Full-time and internship candidates have identical responsibilities.
Systems Engineers will work alongside the founding system architect on all aspects of the technology: design, implementation, testing, fixing bugs, writing integration drivers, documentation and research. All of their work will be open-sourced. Almost all code will be written in Go, however, other languages like Python, C, C++, Lua, JavaScript, etc. will make a presence.
System Engineers will be researchers as well. In designing the semantic and linguistic interfaces of the circuit, we investigate past and present, scientific and industrial, literature and software on a wide range of algorithmic topics to help us inform and verify our choices.
QUALIFICATIONS
The ideal candidate, full-time and internship, would meet the following criteria, or demonstrate an equivalent level of technical sophistication:
* Full-time candidates should have B.A./B.Sc., M.A./M.Sc. or Ph.D. in some hard science. Internship candidates, who are near the completion of their studies towards the mentioned degrees, are also elligible.
* Four or more years of experience with a low-level/systems programming language like C, C++, or Java as well as some experience in building systems, small or big alike, is quite desirable. Altenratively, a serious involvement with a more exotic concurrent or research language, like Haskell or Erlang, would work as well.
* Having a non-trivial open-source project (in any language) would be highly valued.
* Some understanding of how UNIX operating kernels and systems work on the inside. (You don't need to be a specialist.)
* Knowledge of current industrial open-source technologies is good albeit not a deal-breaker. However, interest and desire to learn and hack some of them will be needed.
* Ability to read academic publications in Computer Science
Most importantly, we are looking for individuals who are able and willing to learn fast and have open flexible minds. On that note, we do not expect that you have prior Go experience, however we do expect that
* Candidates will come prepared to carry out the interview in Go.
We are not going to test your Go-intricacies skills. We simply expect that you be able to implement your solutions to our programming riddles in Go.
COMPENSATION
Compensation will vary based on experience as we welcome both out-of-college engineers and seasoned industry scientists. That said, compensation and benefits will be on par with the standard amongst institutions like Google, IBM, Microsoft and such. Location
To apply, please, send your vitae and anything else you want to say to Petar at p@gocircuit.org.
WHO WE ARE: We’re a small SaaS company based in downtown Austin that’s growing fast and that’s built a product that our customers love (http://storify.com/paulmay/buzzstream-twitter-props) We have over a thousand paying customers, our annual revenue is $1M+ and it’s doubling every year.
WHAT WE DO: BuzzStream helps marketers find and build relationships with influencers to drive traffic and build brands. Our customers include some of the most well-known brands in the world and many, many digital agencies.
We’ve just scratched the surface of the things we can do to help our customers, and we think we can grow at a much faster rate if we keep delivering on our roadmap. We need your help getting there.
WHAT WE’RE LOOKING FOR: We’re looking for mid to senior level software engineers, but we’re much less concerned about the specific level of experience than we are in finding people with the right attitude, ability to learn, and approach to solving problems. Part of our team works remotely, and we’re open to remote work for this position for the right person.
Our app is written in Java, deployed on Amazon’s cloud and utilizes several open source dependencies. Expert knowledge of Java and Linux are required. Experience with AWS and modern javascript technologies is a plus.
BuzzStream may be a good fit for you if...
* You want to work at a place where virtually everything you work on impacts the business and you know exactly how everything you build helps the customer.
* You don’t want to be pigeon-holed as “the guy/girl who works on the [XYZ] part of the product.” You’ll be working on every part of the product and you’ll constantly be learning.
* It’s really important to you to work on a team where every person cares deeply about building great software that solves real problems. You have no use for bureaucracy, pointless meetings, or team members that provide limited value but succeed as a result of fake hustle and strong political skills.
* You really want to learn what it takes to build a startup, but you’d rather not learn through the “I learned what not to do” method. We’ve made plenty of mistakes, but we’re past the stage of trying to figure out how to build a successful business.
If this sounds like something you’re interested in, I’d love to hear from you. Please send me a resume, along with a note telling me a bit about yourself and why you’re interested in BuzzStream. You can reach me (Paul May, co-founder) at careers@buzzstream.com.

connect our projects with ease, which also enables us to use
different languages in different projects.
- Flexible work hours. Come in as early or late as you want, as long
as your total hours are on par with your peers; what really matters
is the quality and quantity of your code commits.
- Code intelligently. We hack, but we also care about sharing code
with each other, so we talk about readability and complexity, we
develop all modules as though they'll one day be open-sourced, and
we believe in small tools used cleverly, at scale.
- Open Source friendly. Besides using mostly open-source tools, we've
open-sourced several internally developed tools on
https://github.com/MakerStudios/, and more are coming.
- Great benefits. We have amazing investors and we want healthy,
enthusiastic employees, so we offer our engineers a highly
competitive salary, top-notch health/dental/vision coverage,
401(k), and stock options.

At Academia.edu, we're trying to accelerate the scientific process by changing the way scientific research is shared. Right now publication is slow, un-innovative, and expensive - we want it to be fast, innovative, and free. We're a platform where scientists upload and share their research directly, and track metrics on the impact of their work. These metrics help when they apply for jobs and grants.
A leading climate scientist in Germany told us "Academia.edu shows the impact of your work that is not covered by Web of Science and citation indexes of that sort. With Web of Science you only learn how many people have quoted what. But with Academia.edu I can see what is viewed, what is actually read or not. Here I learn something additional, something I would not know otherwise.”
5.1 million academics have signed up to Academia.edu, and around 1 million join every 2 months.
We are a 10 person team based in downtown San Francisco. We just raised $11 million from Khosla Ventures, Spark Capital, and True Ventures. We are looking for full-stack engineers, designers and data scientists. Technologies we use include Ruby, Rails, CoffeeScript, Backbone, Postgres, Mongo and Varnish.
Bijan Sabet from Spark Capital writes "We believe open science is really important. We believe Academia.edu is going to have a profound impact on the world."
There are some core values that define the Academia.edu culture. Since everyone in Academia.edu is involved in running the company, we look for these values in everyone we hire:
* Being a do-er - "The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena" - Theodore Roosevelt
* Being driven - "Look at a day when you are supremely satisfied at the end. It's not a day when you lounge around doing nothing; it's when you've had everything to do, and you've done it." - Lord Acton
* Having equanimity - "First they ignore you, then they laugh at you, then they fight you, then you win." - Gandhi
* Having humility - knowing what you know, what you don't know, and where you just have an instinct
* Being motivated to open up and accelerate science

Qualifications:
- Strong Mobile Development Skills (iOS, Android)
- Strong Web Development Skills (Ruby on Rails, JavaScript)
- Experience with mobile frameworks (PhoneGap, Xamarin, RubyMotion)
- Strong OO skills
- Strong debugging skills
- OSX development experience

Product:
ShowKit is a mobile software development kit that turbo charges apps with live communication features in under 30 minutes. Before ShowKit, it would take companies and software engineers months of intensive development to add features like audio/video conferencing, screen sharing, and gesture control to their applications. Our first-to-market gesture control functionality empowers users to tap, swipe, highlight, and fully control another users' screen remotely while simultaneously connecting the two users via audio/video conference.
Notably, ShowKit is the only framework that includes hardware accelerated video encoding & decoding. This enables 720p at 30fps, the highest quality video conferencing resolution on the market, while using minimal cpu resources and allowing the app to run seamlessly in the background while a call is taking place. Comparable solutions use full cpu resources & only achieve 4-5fps at that resolution, which isn't feasible for video conferencing.

A tagline of what we do is: Refresh helps connect people at a deeper level by providing realtime insights about them just as you're about to meet them.
The best description however is found by simply installing the app (Iphone only at the moment - we're in the app store, Android soon - see job description below!) and trying it yourself.
We're super proud of the team we've built and we plan to keep the caliber high.
We have exactly one requirement for hiring an engineer - it's someone we'd like to work with. That's a simple statement, but if you dig deeper, there's a lot to it. It says that we think they're smart. And that we could learn from them. And that they could learn from us. And that we get along, and they fit our culture. And they're passionate about our product like we are. And of course - that they also want to work with us.
Our interviews are fun - at least we think so. They're largely modeled after largely after Google interviews (there's a lot of Google interviewing experience in our team). Questions are either real problems we've had to solve (probably recently) or some abstractification of a bigger problem to see how you attack problems in general (with the "getting the right answer" not being the interesting part of the interview).
Specifically - We're looking for:
Backend Developers:
You're a crackshot in your backend language of choice. As I said, we're building a system that does an incredible amount of work all while the user is waiting for it to complete - so needless to say, we're looking for people who care about performance. A lot.
Our backend is a highly concurrent system written in Java using MongoDB. You might know Java or you might not, but either way you're willing to learn. If you don't know it - you can impress us in your language of choice. You understand algorithms matter. You also understand sloppy database access could make that ugly n^2 algorithm look absolutely blazing fast.
You love to code. You love to show off your results now and then to other engineers (as they're probably the only folks around who might get the intracacies of what you're excited about)
We're looking for both Senior and Junior backend engineers. If you're a Senior Engineer - you've worked in server-side code for a few years. You've scaled to thousands or millions of users. You can talk to other Senior engineers with very few words because you both know the special cases, assumptions, and pitfalls cold.
If you're a Junior engineer, you love to code and you're good at it. But most importantly - Be smart. Be passionate. Be excited. (New grads please apply!)
Android and IOS engineers:
You have apps in the store you can show us. You care about the user experience. You have a few years under your belt in either Objective-C or Android-Java.
We're hiring an experienced web developer for a full-time position building rich frontend applications, powered by our machine learning backend. The platform will aim to help teachers assess student work, such as essays or journals, and improve student writing through feedback during the revision and editing process.
Our web services are built in Python using the Django framework, and our backend is powered by state-of-the-art machine learning implemented in Java. Our team has a strong technical background and a history of work in education. In this position, you’ll be implementing a rich web application using client-side frontend frameworks. Your role will be to bridge the gap between our RESTful API for writing assessment and our wireframed user workflows for student and teacher access to these tools.
This job will be highly collaborative in an early-stage, self-funded and profitable startup. Your primary responsibilities will focus on frontend development, but you’ll occasionally dive into our Python web services and collaborate on defining our user workflows including UX and visual design. Dependent on interest and experience, you may be asked to contribute to the Java machine learning software that powers our platform.
No experience with machine learning or natural language processing is necessary or expected, but you need to be eager and interested in finding out how those tools work and how they can help students and teachers. You’ll be working under the guidance of experienced researchers from Carnegie Mellon’s Language Technologies Institute and Human-Computer Interaction Institute.
We prefer an on-site employee at our office in Pittsburgh, PA, but may make exceptions for an outstanding candidate. Compensation will be competitive and based on experience.
Skills and Requirements
Ideal candidates will have an active interest in educational technology, are interested in using machine learning for real-world benefit, and have prior experience including the following:
* Rich web application development using JavaScript frameworks like Angular, Ember, or Backbone.
* Web layout and implementation of frontend page design using HTML and CSS.
* Designing and working with RESTful APIs providing complex functionality to frontend applications.
* Agile development on a small, dynamic team.
You might also bring other wonderful things to the table, such as:
* Experience with deployment and continuous integration on Amazon Web Services or another cloud host.
* Live support and operations management for large-scale customer-facing web services.
* Development experience for web MVC frameworks, especially using Python with Django.
* A background in educational technology or enthusiasm about helping people improve their writing.
* Prior real-world experience with machine learning applications.
We are hiring a full-time junior developer, focused on front-end development, at our offices in Stuttgart, Germany.
This is a great opportunity for someone relatively new to the software development business that wants to make a consistent, meaningful impact on the ability of the United States to provide humanitarian aid and support partner countries throughout the African continent. We're discovering more opportunities to support the command, and are excited to be able to offer an opportunity for a junior developer to break into the industry.
Projects are varied and iterative with short timelines; you'll regularly score wins and work closely with the people using your tools on a daily basis.

I know 'app for laundry' is a tech cliché right now, but we're definitely encountering real demand. The problem is real, and we're solving it.
The team is very strong, with an HBS grad who grew up in a dry-cleaning family heading operations, and a Stanford GSB grad with direct consumer startup experience heading customer acquisition. I'm Stanford CS/EE, have built a few teams at various startups, and am just starting to build the technology and team to support this (very viable) business. The tech stack is Heroku / Python / Django / Celery / Phonegap / JQuery / Backbone / Twilio currently, but obviously there is plenty of opportunity to influence technology decisions early on, and plenty of opportunity to learn new technologies as well. We expect the next couple of hires to own entire new efforts, and have their hands in wide-ranging parts of our entire business.
We're looking for a Web Developer or Front-end Developer to develop interfaces for our customers, tools for our personnel, and visualizations for our managements. Ideally, this person would also have an active role in the design process as well, either leading design or working with our contract designer.
We're also looking for a Director of Marketing. Rinse is a quintessential B2C business, with plenty of opportunities for online advertising, offline collateral, partnerships, and 'growth hacking.' We're building a scalable business model and the technology to support it, now help us scale the business. Please see a job description at http://bit.ly/1dLJigo - The sky's the limit!
Finally, if anyone in San Francisco is looking to make a few extra dollars part-time, Rinse is hiring part-time Associates to help us deliver clothes. We pay $25 per hour for a handful of hours per week. Perhaps it would be a way for some of you bootstrapping startups to earn a little extra cash? To apply to the Driver / Associate position, fill out this web form: https://docs.google.com/a/rinse.com/forms/d/1kWZYu1kg1r8kxdD...
Hacker News has definitely been our most successful recruiting channel. Thank you! Feel free to contact me at sam@rinse.com with questions, comments, or applications.
Fulltime Hardware and Software Positions in NYC (Chelsea/Flatiron)
Be the one of the first engineers at a Samsung-backed hardware startup
Thingi is a startup at The Samsung Accelerator in NYC and we are hiring full-time engineers. This is an opportunity to jump in at the start of a project and do influential, fun, and rewarding work, which will get noticed quickly.
You want this job if you are after a non-trivial technical challenge, a startup environment and the ability to help shape and deliver a new consumer product. You'll be working with a small team of product designers and software engineers and hardware engineers to build a reliable, elegant and clever mobile accessory from scratch. As a team we need to prototype and take to production a system that involves consumer hardware, signal processing, data analytics and user interface. We don't have any boring jobs and if I could clone myself and simultaneously become a tech genius, I would apply.
Samsung Accelerator is a place for entrepreneurs and inventors to do good work in an aesthetically pleasing, friendly and respectful environment. You will be around a lot of other bright people working on many other products. It's a collaborative place to work where you'll get exposed to all kinds of ideas. And there are snacks.
On the software side, we like Python, Go, C and Clojure. We think that well-tested code is better code. We understand that Objective-C, Javascript and Java are the tools of the trade on certain platforms and do are best to create elegant and reliable high-performance software with them. On the hardware side we are likely using Bluetooth Low Energy and UWB in ultra-portable form factors. We are concerned with power consumption, size, wireless range and durability.
We’d prefer to hire you as a full-time employee (with benefits) but we can also hire you as a contractor if you’d prefer.
Specifically we are looking for first engineer in each of the following areas:

AppDynamics is a successful, well-funded startup in Application Performance Management space. Our product and business model are proving to be quite disruptive in a very large market. Companies like Netflix, Priceline.com, Deutsche Bank, Williams Sonoma, Betfair and Expedia are using AppDynamics to ensure the performance and availability of their revenue-critical applications.
AppDynamics' traditional products for JVM, CLR, PHP and Node.js kick ass at measuring server-side performance across your app. But with the shift to highly interactive websites and mobile apps, an increasing number of performance problems are caused by client-side code or internet latency. End-User Monitoring measures the performance that your real users' experience by instrumenting client-side platform APIs. EUM complements server-side monitoring, but comes with its own set of challenges:
* Client-side platforms are not designed for easy instrumentation. How can we extract meaningful performance data from web browsers, iOS, and Android?
* Client-side performance performance is confounded by the huge variability in devices, workloads, and network latency. How can we make sense of this complex, noisy, multi-dimensional data?
* How can we cope with the volume of performance data flooding in from millions/billions of users?
* How can we incorporate client-side and server-side data into a complete picture of app performance?
Here are the components of our system, and what it takes to work on them:
Browser Agent:
* Write fast, bulletproof instrumentation for JavaScript that can run inside any web app across hundreds of browser versions.
* Understand behavioral and performance idiosyncrasies of various browsers.
* Incorporate new timing specifications from W3C performance working group, but develop fallback timing techniques for other browsers.
Mobile Agents:
* Build fast, bulletproof instrumentation for iOS (Objective-C) and Android (Java) platform APIs that can run inside any app across thousands of devices.
* Understand mobile app architecture and frameworks, identify strategies to extract user actions, performance and system crash data.
* Understand iOS, Android, and Dalvik internals, and the characteristics and constraints of mobile platforms in general.
Cloud:
* This is the processing platform that receives data from the agents. It's a scalable data processor and analytics engine (think real-time map/reduce) built on Amazon Web Services.
* Process billions of end-user requests from some of the biggest sites in the world.
* Scale with AWS infrastructure components (EC2, S3, DynamoDB, EMR, etc).
* Ensure zero downtime, zero data loss, continuous deployment, multi tenant, multi version, etc.
* Analyze huge volumes of data with statistical techniques, machine learning, predictive analysis.
UI:
* Design and build learnable, usable, data-rich HTML5 UI that helps users discover, triage, and root-cause performance problems.
* We use AngularJS and TypeScript.
I work in the EUM team and we are looking to expand. If you have skills or interest pertaining to any of the above-mentioned areas, please write to me at bthomas@appdynamics.com

Shopify is the best platform for online stores, as well as a diverse company of happy polyglots who hack on everything between UX, data warehouses, and low-level CRuby VM performance issues. We value personal growth, and developer quality of life in a huge way and show it by having safe deployment systems anyone can trigger; facilitated retrospectives + off-sites with Corey Haines; GitHub and PRs for everything; small, mixed teams of folks with 0 to 30 years of experience, and encouragement from the still-hacking CEO to give back to open source on company time.
http://shopify.com/careers – apply to any dev/ops job and mention HN and I’ll give you a hand.
Here’s a sampler of the current teams at work:
Reports
High throughput + realtime tools for customers; we hired the author of SkyDB to continue making it more awesome. People on this team have backgrounds in low-level kernel work, Smalltalk VM development, and deployment of national wireless systems.
Stack
The right thing to do should be the easiest thing to do; this team works on things like implementing Kafka across the entire Shopify system to let anyone pub/sub to any call-site, opening the door for easy instrumentation/experimentation.
Performance
We’re in the process of sharding Shopify in order to isolate and better service stores experiencing $3000000+/hour flash sales. People working on IBM’s specialized JVM are now hacking here, while also contributing context threading patches to CRuby off the side of their desk for fun.
Point of Sale
If you like making beautiful hardware + beautiful software that you can see used by customers who tell you this is the Holy Grail of retail systems, then you go here.
Operations
Engineers here work on projects like Chef, distributed cloud+iron failover systems, DDOS mitigation stuff and our new datacenters.
More teams
Data (giant, columnar data-stores + PhD withbackgrounds in finance and astrophysics)
Admin (Batman.js + UX professionals + designers who code)
Self help (machine learning for people learning)
Apps (JS SDKs for seamless iframes + APIs)
Checkout (provide low-latency experiences while dealing with high-latency payment gateways; don’t drop any of the zillion$$$ going by)
Platform + Growth (biz dev science + gamification of ecommerce education)
Internal tools (Fast Company-covered staff bonus system aka “Unicorn”, Bayesian classification of customer questions assigned to support experts, hand-made phone queueing systems wrapped around Twilio, etc., etc.)
Billing (hard-core testers need only apply)
Payments (integrations with Stripe + fraudster f-ing)
Core/API (everything not here)

Yearbook Machine is a fast-growing technology startup company, supplying leavers' yearbooks to schools and universities across the UK and Europe. Since being founded in 2009 by recent Cambridge and UCL graduates who noticed a gap in the market when making their own leavers' yearbook, we have had considerable success: over the past two years our sales have grown more than tenfold and we are now the market leader in the UK. After a particularly successful academic year in 2012-2013, we’re expanding our development team and are now looking for an ambitious Junior / Graduate Developer to help us to continue to grow.
Your job will involve working on many different aspects of our software and technology systems. We’ve managed to automate a highly complex design process, allowing us to create customised book layouts at the push of a button. This has involved bringing together many of the latest and most exciting software technologies and combining them in new ways to build a genuinely innovative piece of engineering. While we won’t expect you to understand it all straight away, you’ll be given the freedom to work on whichever parts of the system most interest you, and will be supported by the rest of the development team in learning the best practices of modern software engineering. This will include opportunities to get involved with: front-end development using the latest OOP JavaScript frameworks, back-end development, DevOps and automated server provisioning using Chef and Vagrant, automated testing, continuous integration and automated layout design.
Working at Yearbook Machine is not the corporate grind: we’re a small group of like-minded, focused individuals working to create a product we genuinely believe in. We work hard but our environment is relaxed and friendly. Our office is based in a light and airy converted warehouse in central Shoreditch, which we share with another design startup. We're currently a team of just 6 people, 5 of whom are developers.
Requirements
- 2:1 above in Computer Science or other similarly technical degree subject
- Experience with OOP and at least some knowledge of modern software development paradigms such as MVC
- A genuine passion for technology: we’ll be interested to see what you’ve been doing in your spare time!
- Highly competitive, above-market salary
- Generous stock options
- The best equipment: Your choice of computer and monitor(s) and a comfortable chair
- Job satisfaction: we make a product that is fun to build and that our customers love!
FULLTIME in SAN FRANCISCO, CA
ClassDojo is used by over 15mm teachers and students to manage behavior in the classroom, using real time feedback and rewards that can also be shared with parents. We're an edtech startup with funding some of the biggest names in the valley (Jeff Clavier, Ron Conway, General Catalyst, Mitch Kapor...), and we're one of the fastest growing education companies of all time. We're the only non-YC company that Paul Graham has ever invested in.
We've built a product that makes a real difference and gets huge engagement with millions of kids, and we're about to take it to the next level, hopefully with you on board. We have a strong team, an extremely comfortable and relaxed environment and great salary + benefits. If you're a strong hacker who wants to use JavaScript to change the world, apply here:
--------------------------
https://classdojo.wufoo.com/forms/join-classdojo/
--------------------------
We're particularly looking for:
* Frontend Engineer
What's the role?
--------------------
At the core of ClassDojo is a node.JSON API built on node.js which makes use of multiple services and handles hundreds of requests per second. The frontend web application talks to this API, and it's a single page app that uses our own (soon to be open-sourced) JS framework - mojo.js - which combines the best bits of Backbone, Ember and Angular. That means great templating with powerful and efficient data-binding, but plenty of flexibility to build apps quickly. You'll work on this and other awesome tools, and you'll build a lot of user-facing features that go out to millions of kids around the world every day. It's pretty rare to have impact like this, and as much freedom as we'll give you. Everyone on our team agrees that this is the most exciting phase of the company that we've seen, and we're growing so quickly that we're all very eager to meet and work with you!
--------------------
What skills are we looking for?
--------------------
* This is primarily an engineering role, rather than being design or CSS focused. We'd like you to be really strong on JavaScript fundamentals, up-to-date with modern JS engineering, and familiar with advanced DOM manipulation.
* Having said that, some minimal design chops would be cool...
* ...but not essential. We do have designers.
* A good sense of product and a desire to have a creative role in designing product features is important to us.
* You love building things well and building them quickly - like us!
The best way to show this off is to point to things you've built. We'd love to see personal projects which demonstrate the above.
Is this you? Apply here: https://classdojo.wufoo.com/forms/join-classdojo/

We're funded by Google Ventures and a ton of others: http://www.crunchbase.com/company/custommade-ventures so paying you well is not an issue. We recently raised an 18 million series B! We're growing, and with that comes scaling challenges. But it's all part of the fun. We have a great team and a great environment that focuses on customers and product development. When I'm working on product stuff, I get to collaborate with product / UX / support people day to day to build a product that meets a real business need, and makes everyone happy. But when I just need to bang out some code, people leave me alone. When I'm working on platform or architectural stuff, I get great advice and feedback from my coworkers. Expressing opinions and having discussion is encouraged. Friday afternoons are refactoring / innovation day to scratch your good code itch. Work / life balance is great. Bureaucracy is at a minimum.
Devs get a macbook pro, a huge thunderbolt display, and an Aeron chair.

We also often help stream the event for them, check it out here: http://www.youtube.com/bostonpython/ Tech blog here: http://engineering.custommade.com/sawdustsoftware/
You're a low-ego programmer who is always learning, has pushed code to production innumerable times, and doesn't cringe at the prospect of collaborating with a team of non-techies every so often. You know the modern web stack well, and specialize in at least one part of it. Get in touch with our hiring person at ellen -at- custommade-dot-kom. Let her know that "Mali" sent you.
