Just FYI, it's a holiday weekend in the U.S. this month, so upvoting the story to help keep it around for a larger audience would be a nice gesture.

San Francisco: product generalists and systems generalists.

What we do: subscription based social hyperlocal mobile gamified dating discovery engine with loyalty coupons. For the enterprise.

Just kidding.

We're a stealthy team of technical generalists filling a hole in the universe by building software that enriches the human experience. Everyone on our team codes and contributes on every level, front to back. We've all built web scale products and scaled them to millions of daily active users with zero marketing spend.

The world is becoming a different place: everyone is going to be carrying around a network connected super computer with ambient sensors in their pockets. We can see the future that is enabled by these devices. We are making that future happen.

Real talk: We've been running our prototype for 3 months now and we all use it multiple times a day, every day. Every person we've showed it to has asked us if they can have it. Every single person who's had it installed has gotten mad when our testflights expire.

We are well funded by a long list of top tier investors: http://angel.co/herelabs

We're looking for a select few product generalists (designer hackers with mobile expertise) and systems generalists (systems automation, machine learning, distributed computing) who can come in and contribute at speed on day one, and who are world class at more than one thing.

Ideal candidates are brilliant, fearless, and passionate individuals who are uncompromising in their pursuit of building an incredible product that will positively affect the lives of every human being every day.

As teammates we value commitment and accountability; honing our craft; building tools to create leverage; and seeking to learn from and understand each other.

We are offering founding team equity and competitive salaries. Retina Macbook Pro (or Air) & 30 inch monitor are standard issue. Office space in the heart of the SoMa district in beautiful San Francisco. Willing to relocate. Willing to fly you in for interviews. Willing to tell you our stealthy secrets.

We are not your typical San Francisco stealth startup. We are NOT another me-too-social-local-sharing app. We DON'T sell condoms by subscription. We are NOT the place to share photos of your dog taking a leak. There will be NO gamification.

Life is short. Build stuff that matters.

Email siqi at herelabs.com. Interns and H1Bs welcome.

huhtenberg• 14 years ago

The product pitch sounds great. I really hope you deliver on it :)

blader6• 14 years ago

Thank you! We're trying our best and having a lot of fun. We will see. :)

nickels• 14 years ago

Awesome, can't wait.

andyjsong• 14 years ago

This might be a stupid question, but does the product generalist position require you to code? Or is it more on a product manager role?

blader6• 14 years ago

Hi Andy, all of us are contributing code and product generalists need to be able to build what they design.

eli_gottlieb4• 14 years ago

You sound very excited about telling us nothing of what it is you do or make.

blader6• 14 years ago

That's fair, and we deserve the criticism since we're still kinda stealth, in the sense that we're not publicly talking about what we're doing.

In person we've always been happy to give a full demo and share everything we know about our company. We've shown our product to a lot of people and nobody has left disappointed (and many told me they expected to be).

Two Sigma (SoHo, NYC) - Full Time, Intern, H1B

Did you know there's a company based in Soho that has enough technology to be considered among the world's Top 250 supercomputing sites? One that imports over 5TB of data every single day, and has alumni from Google, Intel, and Microsoft?

You might think I'm talking about some stealth-mode startup, but I'm talking about where I work: Two Sigma Investments. At our core, we're a technology company applying our talents to the domain of finance. We've created a system that combines artificial intelligence and keen human insight — a system that's constantly improving and advancing.

We're looking for a diverse set of technologists to join our team. Our challenges require mastery of areas such as kernel level development, machine learning, and distributed systems. Our team includes a Unix Lifetime Achievement winner, Putnam medalists, ACM Programming competition finalists, and International Mathematics Olympiad medalists. We are proud of our individual pedigrees, but even prouder of our teamwork.

We tend to hire people with at least a bachelor’s degree in a technical or quantitative field and experience with C or languages that target the JVM, but we are open-minded in our search for critical thinkers who are passionate about technology. We analyze the data-rich domain of finance, but financial experience is not a requirement. We hope to hear from you!

Dave's a nice guy, interviewed with two sigma a couple of weeks ago, didn't get an offer but enjoyed the experience.

toomuchcoffee2• 14 years ago

In that case ("tend to... but") you might want to fix the language in your CL ads, which explicitly contradict what you're saying here as to the strict requirement of bachelor's degrees (which had also better be from an elite school, apparently):

"Successful candidates will have, at a minimum, a bachelor's degree in computer science from a top university..."

Factual is hiring engineers and data lovers of all levels in Palo Alto, Los Angeles, and Shanghai.

Remote work is possible for exceptional candidates who are US citizens and living in the US ('exceptional' meaning you are a great engineer and have lots of machine learning/data extraction/NLP/etc. experience that is relevant to what we do).

Factual's vision is to be an awesome and affordable data provider that enables developers, startups, and big companies to focus on innovation instead of data acquisition. We have a terrific team that is still fairly small and an incredible CEO who was previously the co-founder of Applied Semantics (which was bought by Google and became AdSense). Factual has venture funding from Andreessen-Horowitz and our partners/customers include Facebook, Yelp, Foursquare, Trulia, and Newsweek.

There are many challenging problems to work on at all layers of the stack: data cleaning and canonicalization, deduping, storage, serving, APIs, improving data using machine learning, etc. If you love data, Factual is the place to be. Our main criteria are that you're smart and get things done, but you'll get bonus points for experience with Clojure, machine learning, NLP, algorithm design, or Hadoop. Our LA office is our headquarters and our Palo Alto office recently opened so new hires would have a huge impact on the culture there.

You can email me personally at leo -at- factual.com, or view our job postings and apply directly via Jobvite:

Amsterdam, the Netherlands.

Silk (www.silkapp.com) is looking for Front-end engineers and a DevOps engineer.

We're building a product that makes it easy for people to create sites with content that is easy to query, visualize and share. On a deeper level, our vision is to bring the semantic web to the masses and build an amazing company around that.

We're working on many interesting and challenging problems, with a custom-built Haskell graph-database on the back-end and a cutting-edge Functional Reactive client-side framework in Javascript on the front-end.

The team is still small (~9 people), so you'll be able to make a large impact. We are well-funded by top-tier VCs and located in the city center of Amsterdam.

Austin, TX | Senior front-end developer | mobi

Come work for a small, meritocratic company and own the front end of our applications.

We're looking for someone with solid design skills and the ability to translate their design to semantically correct HTML and CSS. Ideally, you don't rely completely on mockup tools like Dreamweaver and can code the CSS by hand. You should have strong opinions about the correct way to architect the design aspect of a webapp. Have you migrated stylesheets to SASS or LESS, integrated JavaScript unit testing into a continuous build process or other cool stuff that a bunch of backend developers have never done? Talk to us.

Programming abilities are strongly desired, but not strictly required. You would necessarily need to do some JavaScript and jQuery as needed for the UI development, but good programming fundamentals and the ability to pick up (or already know) things like Java and SQL would be a huge plus. If you think you might be a fit, contact information is in my profile. Portfolios or github profiles are encouraged. Resumes are also welcome.

Perks include market salary, health/dental/vision/life, unlimited paid vacation plan, 401K.

Amicus Labs - Designing for Law - San Francisco

We’re building software that will radically change how lawyers approach, analyze, and engage with the law. We use advanced case law parsing and tech-enabled human review to construct a detailed outline of the law. Leveraging that data, we can offer litigators legal search tools that are an order of magnitude better than existing offerings, as well as detailed analytics on legal arguments and AI tools that automatically assess and assemble litigation documents.

We're looking to add a designer to our small team of legal-minded engineers (Stanford, Berkeley, Google) and lawyers (Stanford, Columbia).

The law is intricate. Communicating it clearly is a serious design challenge. We are looking for someone who can shape not only our look and feel, but also how lawyers interact with the law.

You:

+ A record of creating beautiful software

+ The ability to implement what you design (HTML5, CSS3, JS)

+ Deep, sincere interest in law

+ Desire to forge a product that will change how justice is done

Us:

+ Backed by the most visionary investors in the world

+ Taking a big swing at truly hard problems

+ Excellent health/dental/vision

+ “No vacation policy” policy

+ Great office across the street from 4th & King Caltrain

EnergySavvy - Seattle, WA

U.S. utilities spend $6 billion a year on energy efficiency programs encouraging their customers to use less energy, spurred by regulations or simply to avoid building expensive new power plants. Utilities achieve these energy savings by outsourcing these programs to consulting companies armed with Excel spreadsheets and filing cabinets, meaning that the programs don't always work as effectively as they could, and making it difficult to measure a program's effectiveness in a timely manner.

EnergySavvy is the data collection and analysis platform for these energy efficiency programs. Through great software and user experiences, we make programs run better, collect clean and consistent data and let our customers optimize their programs in real-time.

We're hiring backend Python devs, front-end devs, PMs, etc. Here's our jobs page:

We're also currently offering a $13,000 referral bonus to anyone who refers a dev/PM that we hire! More info at:

San Francisco, CA or Tipp City / Dayton, OH

Sociable Labs has several open positions on both the engineering and the marketing sides of the company.

Our product brings social features such as commenting, passive and active sharing, and top "x" lists onto media and e-commerce sites. We have a solid system and a rapidly growing base of customers who love our product.

We have a fun team, great benefits, and an enjoyable workplace. Our approach is analytics-driven and we're working towards Continuous Integration.

I do primarily JavaScript, so I can mention a couple of the recent changes: we now use a node.js powered build system for our JS files, pre-compiled handlebars templates for client-side rendering, and we use feature detection to only load on browsers with localStorage and CORS support. (This works out to IE 8 and newer on the MS side.)

See more info at http://www.sociablelabs.com/careers/ or email nathan @ [company site] if you're curious about anything.

Sociable Labs also hosts the Tipp JS meetup, so if you're in the Dayton OH area, please stop by even if you're not interested in working with us! http://www.meetup.com/tipp-js

Berlin, Germany, (remote possible, while on location preferred)

Webcred is hiring to expand their team to accelerate the collaborative consumption movement.

Our focus at Webcred is really to make people trust each other more, because we believe that the world would be a better place if we use our resources more efficiently by sharing with each other. That is why we are building tools to allow p2p marketplaces build more trust in their communities, as we see trust or the lack thereof as a major roadblock.

We are a very young, but driven startup that is starting at Startupbootcamp Berlin this week. One of the founders grew up in Berlin, a great city to have a perfect work-life balance, but we also have been involved in the Boston scene and believe we can bring the best of both worlds together.

We are an all-technical team with allround-capabilities, working on a Rails/Neo4j Stack and looking for people that could help us on the development side, but really, we want to talk to any of you who believe in our mission that a world where people can trust each other is a better world and a world worth building. And on the way, have loads of fun with us.

Please contact me at nam@webcred.co with anything, I would be happy to talk to you.

bartonfink3• 14 years ago

Are you only looking for full-time people? I've been using neo4j for some non-production code at Mapquest and I'd love a chance to use it "for real", but I'm not in a position to switch full-time jobs.

We can talk about it. We are very flexible when it comes to people we want, it's really about the fit for us (+some openness to switch to full-time eventually)

San Jose, Santa Cruz :: Build FPGA design tools at Altera

Altera is one of the leading designers of FPGA devices in the world. I'm an engineer in the software team, developing mostly embedded design and instrumentation tools for FPGAs.

We are looking for software developers experienced or with a strong desire to learn about Computer Architecture, FPGA design, Digital Logic, Embedded Systems, and more, while at the same time developing engineering design tools in high level languages.

To give you an idea of what we do, these are some of the projects that involved me at Altera :

  * Designed and implemented a high performance on-chip network that's used
    in thousands of routers, base stations, and switches around the world.
  * Created a hardware/software instrumentation framework in a mix of Java, C++, C, 
    and Verilog. This is the foundation for all the debuggers at Altera.
  * Modified the GCC toolchain to add support for Altera's processors, like our
    NiosII soft processor.
  * Implemented a GDB Server from scratch in Java.
  * Defined and implemented the pieces of an ARM CoreSight debug subsystem.
  * Implemented infrastructure used in a C-to-Gates compiler.

New York, NY - {Backend || DevOps} Engineers - Node.js, Neo4j, Heroku, EC2

---- About us ----

Hello, we are FiftyThree (http://www.fiftythree.com/). We're the company behind Paper, an iPad app for freeform writing/sketching/drawing.

Paper has done well: among other things, it won this year's Apple Design Award for iPad, it's had nearly 3 million downloads, and it's used and loved by creatives at top-notch companies everywhere, including Apple, Nike, Pixar, and more.

But Paper is just the beginning for us. Our goal is to bring creation tools into the post-PC era, and we think there's a huge opportunity there. Mobile and tablets are changing everything.

We like to say that Paper is “where ideas begin”; we're now building a service to “bring ideas together”. Think something like a GitHub for ideas and creations. We have a great team of developers and designers spanning iOS and web, but we’re looking for 2-3 more developers to join us. That’s where we hope you’ll come in.

---- About you ----

We're looking for great backend or devops engineers to help us build this service. The role is flexible depending on your prior experience, passion, and expertise.

E.g. perhaps you love algorithms and performance engineering. Great — let's design an efficient activity feed for our users. (It's a fun graph problem.)

E.g. or perhaps you love devops and infrastructure. Perfect — help us setup a high-availability database cluster with master-slave replication.

E.g. or perhaps you love data and metrics. Right on — help us get great instrumentation and analytics in place so we can monitor early and monitor often.

Whatever your specifics, you'll work across a diverse set of tools. We currently use Node.js (and we write primarily CoffeeScript) with Neo4j (a graph database). We deploy on a mix of Heroku and Amazon EC2. And we use GitHub and Trello to keep track of it all.

You don't need prior experience with any of these directly, but you should have some history of building or scaling websites or services like ours. Even better if you can show depth and passion somewhere. Of course, strong engineering skills and an ability to learn quickly are a must.

You'll be just our second backend engineer, so you'll help set the tone for culture, process, and workflow. And if we succeed, you'll certainly help shape the company's future and direction, as well.

---- Sound good? ----

If this sounds interesting to you and you think you fit the bill, drop us a line at mailto:jobs@fiftythree.com. We look forward to hearing from you.

Good luck to searchers on both sides in finding your own perfect fit.

GladHatter• 14 years ago

I'm somewhat curious as to how much ageism is prevalent in these opportunities. From what I've seen, a large percentage of the staff/lifestyle pics associated with these companies show an endless sea of smiling employees in their late 20s & early 30s. Is there room for devs beyond that age?

patrickyeon2• 14 years ago

I am 25, so there's not much information for you to work with from me getting hired. At my previous startup, I was the youngest (straight out of uni); three other employees had children approaching my age. At Romotive, I look to be just about middle of the pack. A fair number of the people know each other from school, which contributes to a narrow spread.

lifeisstillgood• 14 years ago

How shall I put this - just as A people hire other A people, twenty-somethins hire other twenty-somethigs.

One of the things as a guy starting up in his 40s I know how much even a brilliant graduate must be taught and trained and mentored. Whereas a person with 15 or more years under thier belt just needs to be inspired

this is not to say there are not exceptions, but the younger the founder the younger the median age under him/her tends to be, based at least on personal experience.

I am pleased HN has opened up entrepreneurship to people otherwise would have taken the corporate path. Now let's see if we can push the only glass ceiling that lies behind us

smparkes• 14 years ago

I haven't feel any of that among the companies I've contacted. I've been pretty selective about whom I've contacted, so there may be some selection bias there. But my choice has always been based on product/position fit, not on employee age. And HN has by far been the best source for things I'm interested in.

I'll admit I often consciously choose to wear my XKCD hoodie when I meet people for the first time. Not that I don't wear it a lot anyway, but ...

I kind of feel like Steve was sort of an existence proof that age no longer represents the cultural divide it might have at another time.

phmagic2• 14 years ago

Thanks for the shout out Patrick! Looking forward to having you here.

Others: Romotive is hiring software engineers (iOS experience preferred), graphical designers, and robot geeks from all over!

Here's the pitch:

We’re a team of nerds who grew up tinkering with robots. We’re out to put a robot in every home by combining the power of the smartphone with a flexible robotic base.

Our first product, Romo, is a smartphone powered robot that allows you to video chat with someone across the world. You can also customize his behavior through a graphical programming interface, and extend his capabilities through an easy-to-use API. Teaching Romo new things is as easy as updating an app.

We’re well-funded by an awesome team of investors including the likes of Tony Hsieh, Lerer Ventures, David Cohen, Techstars, David Tisch, and Lightspeed.

Interested? Email: founders+hn@romotive.com and tell us about cool things you've built.

blader6• 14 years ago

I will echo that this thread works.

We work with a lot of recruiters and by far the most qualified candidates come from HN. We've hired 25% (i.e. 1 person) of our team so far from HN and I'd expect that number to increase to 50% over time.

Software Engineer: http://www.crimsonhexagon.com/software-engineer/

Senior Software Engineer: http://www.crimsonhexagon.com/senior-software-engineer/

We're a fun team and we're looking for people who enjoy coding as much as we do. Our current engineering team is small which means everyone has a very strong influence on the product and everyone makes a difference. On the cultural side, we have a very open and collaborative environment. Weekly grocery deliveries to our full kitchen and free lunch every two weeks.

We use Java, Tomcat, Maven, Spring, Hibernate, PostgreSQL, and have too many Linux servers to count. If big data and web applications are your thing, we're the place with almost 100TB of data and taking in over 100GB per day.

Any questions or resumes, send to gflynn <at> crimsonhexagon.com And we do read these, I was hired through the "Who's Hiring" thread from May.

Thanks!

seldo• 14 years ago

San Francisco, CA. Full time. H1B okay.

50% of traffic is now driven by social media, and referrer information is increasingly useless with mobile clients and HTTPS. Traditional web analytics doesn't work for social traffic. So awe.sm is building full-featured social media conversion tracking and analytics.

Right now and in the medium term, we're providing immediate value to our customers by giving them firm numbers on the ROI of their social media efforts, in terms of dollars, signups, pageviews or any other metric they pick. Our APIs allow app developers to easily integrate social features into their products and easily present the analyzed data back to their own customers, without having to build their own processing clusters and workflows. Longer term, we want to know what's important on the Internet, and we believe that instrumenting social behavior is the way to do that.

We're looking for back-end engineers who are interested in learning how to handle large volumes of data for aggregation, geo analysis, and graph analysis, in close to real time. We're currently in transition from a mixed stack of PHP and Ruby to JVM languages -- we believe in simple parts loosely coupled, and also in picking the right tool for the job, so you genuinely have the power to shape the stack you work on.

We're also looking for front-end developers to continue to build out our GUI, which is a backbone JS app built on top of the same APIs our customers use.

http://totally.awe.sm/jobs?source=hackernews

We're 13 people right now. We have a cool new office with awesome views ( http://www.flickr.com/photos/seldo/6326815086/in/photostream ) in the heart of the Mission. We have catered lunches, and full health, vision and dental coverage. We use an IRC server for team communication and are agile in the sense that we move quickly and react fast, not in the sense of having attended an overpriced training course.

jhstrauss• 14 years ago

The coolest thing (IMHO) about what we're doing is that we've built it as infrastructure for others to plug into their apps. Everything (and more) that can be done through our GUI can be done via our APIs (see http://developers.awe.sm).

So in addition to the pure engineering roles mentioned in the parent, we're also looking for someone to help us deliver a kick-ass Developer Experience: http://jobs.awe.sm/apply/iXa9QF/Developer-Experience-Lead.ht...

There's no checkbox on your hiring page for "thinks about graph algorithms and graph analysis in Dolores Park on a Saturday" or Perl or R. I'm interested but I'm not sure I'd land in the right pile checking off the languages you have listed.

toomuchcoffee2• 14 years ago

Graph algorithms and graph analysis in Dolores Park on a Saturday? This job's way too hard for you, man. You should be thinking about Photoshop instead. Then you'd have something to check on that form on their hiring page, at least.

Besides, face it, coming from an R and Perl background, you'd never be able to grok the nuanced complexities of PHP or Zend.

Mountain View, CA - Room 77 Hotel Search - Software Engineers (Full Stack), Mobile Developers (Android, iOS), Lead Designer, Marketing/Data Analyst, SEM/Email Analyst - H1B welcome

What we do and who we are looking for:

It's simple - we want to build the world's best hotel search engine. Best place to search (fastest, most relevant, most results), best place to research (data insight, recommendations), and the best place to shop (metasearch engine, finds lower prices from more sources worldwide).

Travel is a big market and there hasn't been much innovation in the last ten years. We were founded on the belief that consumers deserve to get transparency and a fair deal and we believe that tackling hotel search is a great way to help travelers make more informed decisions and save some moolah. It's not the sexiest space to be in but the travel space is the 2nd largest commerce category and we think we can own a piece of the pie through a better product.

Our engineering team is 15+ and growing and we're hungry for more talent because we've got big problems to solve. We look for people who work comfortably across the entire stack. We run on Ubuntu, AWS and no specific language knowledge is necessary though we use a lot of C++, PHP, and Javascript. We don't believe in micromanagement so you'll need to be someone who is self-motivated, not scared off by things you've never done, and willing to make mistakes and know when to ask for a helping hand. Most of our engineering comes from Google, Facebook, Yandex and other top tier companies as well as top tier schools.

On the marketing side, we need some firepower to get the word out there and build smart ways to analyze and optimize the paid traffic we're getting. If you think it would be fun to compete in SEM against larger, more well-funded companies and you don't find it at all scary, we want to talk to you. If you've done large scale email program build outs (things like automated price alerts, segmentation), we want to talk to you.

What's it like working at Room 77?

We're located a stone throws away from Red Rock Coffee in the heart of Downtown Mountain View. We're a diverse bunch and we like to do a lot of team events. Lunches are catered and we have a keg on tap, standard valley benefits apply including equity and competitive compensation. You also get a travel stipend and a travel agent card to get massive savings when you take some R&R.

Who believes in us?

We've raised $13 million to date from VCs like General Catalyst, PAR, and Sutter Hill and companies like Concur (TripIt). We're lucky to have both angels and advisers that have started companies like Expedia, MTV, HotelTonight, Nor1, and Zillow. We're well connected to the industry so you don't have to worry about us having to bang on doors to get to the right folks, all we need to focus on is building a killer product that makes people fall in love with us.

If you think this sounds interesting or you just want us to buy you a coffee when you're in Mountain View, reach out to us. Engineering positions, check out https://www.room77.com/jobs/software_engineer.html?s=hackern... . Marketing/Analyst positions, send resumes/portfolios to jobs@room77.com or reach out to me directly: roger@room77.com.

Scribd - San Francisco, H1B, INTERN are welcome

Scribd (social publishing, top 100 website, YC '06) is hiring talented hackers and other technical people for a broad range of technologies.

We've hired THREE people from these "Who is Hiring" threads, including one just a couple of month ago ... it really works!!

We're looking for people who want to work with:

* Ruby on Rails (we're the #2 largest rails site, after Twitter)

* Javascript

* iOS

* Machine Learning / Data mining kinds of problems

* Back-end problems: scalability, web crawling, analytics

That said, we care way more about your personality and general hacking skills then what languages you've used so far, so if you haven't used these but want to break into mobile or web development, this could be a good opportunity for you.

We're profitable, very well funded and have a really fun office environment (go-karts + a zipline!). We've got flexible hours, a very engineer-driven company culture, and a really terrific team.

Scribd alumni have gone on to found 4 other YCombinator companies, more than from any other startup. We think this says something about the kind of people that we like to hire.

Looking for full-time and INTERN hires (junior year or older). H1B and relocation are no problem. See more at scribd.com/jobs and feel free to email me directly: jared at scribd.com

Update [REMOTE]:

One new addition since I posted this. We are now also looking for people to join our DevOps team. For people on this team we hire everyone from experienced sysadmins to back-end/web developers who have never done operations work but are interested in trying it. Most engineering we keep local, but we hire remote people for the ops team from anywhere in the world. More info at http://www.scribd.com/jobs/23

New York, NY or remote. Intern developer or Junior developer.

Beagle is like Craigslist, but just for college students. We are creating a simple, secure network for students to post and run tasks and errands in their community. getbeagle.com

This is a chance to work on something that will be used by thousands of students, and to be one of the first ten team members.

All software engineers will be working on one or two of our main projects:

#API: Our API is the core that powers everything else. It’s written in Clojure. You’ll be the one actually implementing all the features and exposing them in a developer-friendly way. This is a fun challenge for anyone interested in software design and architecture. We use MongoDB on the backend so it’s best if you are at least somewhat familiar with it.

#iOS app: We have a hybrid iOS app, which lets us have a native experience while staying agile, with quick iterations and frictionless deployment. You’ll mostly be working with the Python web app, but will also have to work with the native iOS shell occasionally, too. You’ll have to work closely with the API, as all new features are be added there first.

#Website: Our public-facing website is a simple Node.js app. You’ll be working closely with the API to mirror certain features from the iOS app to the website. Familiarity with MongoDB is preferable.

Additionally we have some other projects planned like a new administrative interface to the API, and a dashboard that reports key stats we can track.

Please contact Julian at julian at beagleapp dot com.

Vienna, Virginia

Come work for WordReference.com, the top website for translation dictionaries. I have a position open that I think would be a great fit for a reader of Hacker News. It is for a coder with business sense who will be in charge of nearly all technical aspects of running one of the largest websites in the DC area.

This position would be great experience for a person interested in someday launching their own online business. You would work on nearly all technical aspects of running a large website, and work with me in launching new features. While we need to work closely together, you can work from home much of the time. (I highly prefer somebody who lives in the Washington, DC area.) We’ve been around 12 years so we aren't exactly a startup anymore. While there are no stock options, one advantage is that we have sane working hours.

Requirements: - Ability to code and an interest in creating and running excellent websites. - Not religiously opposed to working mostly with C#, JavaScript and MySQL. - An interest in or knowledge of foreign languages is a plus. - Serious web development experience is a plus.

If this sounds like something that you would be interested in, write me through jobs@[our domain name] and I (the founder) will be in touch.

Redwood City, CA - UI Engineer

Tidemark Systems (http://www.tidemark.net, note ".net") is hiring.

Like everybody else in the industry, we're finding hiring to be a difficult problem. For those of us on the UI team it's been an extra challenge -- there are lots of people out there who have experience with toolkits like jQuery, Ext, Sencha Touch, and a whole bunch of other ones, some of which we've never heard of. But we're not simply using frameworks, we're pushing them well beyond what they were intended to do. So if you've got relevant framework experience, that's great. But we really need engineers that are good at the basics: JavaScript, DOM, HTML, and CSS. You'll also need to be decent at UI design and user experience. If you're not just good but great at either of these things (or both!), that's awesome, but we also need you to be able to write code. This isn't just a run of the mill web dev job. This is actual, hard core software engineering, it just happens that the stuff we're (the UI team) doing is all running in the browser.

Tidemark is building a hosted business analytics system, which is way more interesting than it might sound. The company is well-funded and we have people with decades of experience in the field.

We've got a bunch of other openings as well (see http://tidemark.net/company/careers)

    * Technical Support Engineer
    * Director of People Operations
    * Operations Engineer
    * Graphic Designer - Web Developer Emphasis
    * Sr. Technical Writer
    * Enterprise Account Executive
    * Application Tier Developer
    * Computation Engine Developer

If any of these positions sound interesting, my email is on my profile page.

NYC - Novus Partners: backend and frontend engineers

We work in Scala on the back end but don't mind training people up if they lack Scala experience. Our interviews are tough but the people we work with are just incredible. You don't have to be the next gift to mankind, just be comfortable in what you know and what you don't. I don't think there's anyone who doesn't hack on the side here.

Front end is written in jQuery and D3 with the signature open source project of nvd3 (novus.github.com/nvd3/) Take a look. Also, we don't support IE. Image that? Life is good.

(Edit) Oh yeah, great health care and no co-pays.

Notting Hill, London, England.

Our web application is at the heart of our busy e-commerce business; every day it serves millions of product images and handles thousands of purchases - but we can and do update the live site with new code anytime we want without missing a beat. Our systems are written on the LAMP stack and we are migrating to Symfony 2 as our MVC framework. Developers choose the tools that work best for them - for instance, we have a mix of Linux, Windows, and Mac workstations in the team. We are adopting and adapting agile development techniques such as test-driven development, pair programming, and continuous integration. We hold regular retrospectives to improve our working environment and lightning talks to share cool ideas whether work-related or not. We expect developers to be generalising specialists, ready at the drop of a hat to refine an algorithm, write a tricky integration test, tune a SQL query, or discuss feature nuances with a product manager. Our team is growing fast and we'd like to hear (at careers@secretsales.com) from any of you who'd like to join us; we're hiring for all technical roles including front- and back-end devs, sysadmin, and IT admin.

Established in London in July 2007, Secretsales.com is one of the UK's leading private shopping clubs, offering limited-time online sales with current name-brand goods at deep discounts. Brands include fashion, beauty, homewares and lifestyle categories, many familiar from the high street. The company has about 65 employees and a substantial annual turnover. The firm is growing quickly after a recent investment round.

Prior Knowledge (SF) [H1-B, interns ok]

Full Time, Distributed Systems Developers and Machine Learning Experts -- and anyone with a passion for posteriors.

P(K) is a small team in downtown San Francisco pushing the frontiers of probabilistic machine learning to the masses. Our first product is Veritable, a predictive database. We like to think of it as a database for things you don't (yet) know.

We're passionate about discovering the hidden causes behind data, and are currently split pretty evenly between machine learning experts, scalable systems engineers, and people used to working with horribly messy, complex, and sparse data. We're backed by Peter Thiel's group, Founders Fund, who share our commitment to long-term technical innovation.

http://priorknowledge.com/join-us describes a bit more about what we're looking for, and you can always e-mail me (jonas@priorknowledge.com) for more info! Or swing by our offices at the intersection of 3rd and Market to meet the team.

SF - Rails/JS - HALF OR FULL-TIME

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

We're looking to hire a couple more engineers who are interested in being part of a team but would prefer to work 24-40 hours per week instead of the usual 50+. If it sounds interesting let me know (ragalie@verbasoftware.com)

=========

About us:

The college textbook market is currently being disrupted. Verba helps college bookstores transform themselves so that they a) understand and embrace the power of the nets, b) become agents of change in the textbook industry instead of agents of reaction and c) continue to make a healthy profit.

About 225 colleges and universities use our applications to acquire low-cost inventory and price textbooks competitively. Then millions of students visit our white-labeled sites to transparently compare the bookstore's offers against online competitors, and around 80% of students choose to buy from their local bookstore.

We're looking for people familiar with Ruby, Rails, MySQL and JS who can help us grow faster. We (thankfully) don't have too many scaling problems on the technical side, but we have a ton of opportunities (product and partner-based) that we could move on much faster with a few more hands on deck, and we're always looking for ways to provide more control to our support team so they can provide top-notch customer service.

The ideal person has strong Rails knowledge, solid testing practices, a good head for architecture and knows enough JS to help out on front-end.

Be sure to check out our website (http://www.verbasoftware.com) so you can read all about our current products and hear people say nice things about us. :)

RichardPrice• 14 years ago

San Francisco, CA. Full time. Remote is fine too.

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

We believe that science is dysfunctional, and we are working on fixing it. Almost every innovation in medicine and technology in the world has its roots in a science paper. If we want to speed up the world, we need to speed up science. There are many inefficiencies in science:

* it's too slow (there is a 12 month time-lag between submitting a paper to a journal and it being published)

* all the world's research ends up behind extraordinarily expensive paywalls, even though it was authored and peer-reviewed for free by the scientific community

* it hasn't moved out of PDF-land yet (scientists haven't been provided with the incentives to share things like data-sets, code, videos, and other kinds of rich media).

We are working on fixing this. We dream of a world where research is shared instantly, as soon as it's finished; where scientists share their full scientific output (data-sets, code, videos, and comments on all this media), and not just papers; and where a villager in India has as much access to the world's scientific output as a professor at Harvard.

We need talented and passionate engineers to help us accomplish this mission. We have made a good start: 1.8 million academics have joined Academia.edu, and 3,500 join each day. But there is much more to do.

We're a 10 person, engineering-driven, team based in downtown San Francisco. The site is in Rails, and other technologies we use include PostgreSQL, Redis, Varnish, Solr, Memcached, Mongodb, Beanstalkd. We have raised $6.7 million from Spark Capital, True Ventures, Mark Shuttleworth (founder of Ubuntu), and others.

Familiarity with our technologies is a plus, but it's not essential. It's far more important that you are a quick learner who can pick up new technologies quickly. We are looking to hire a range of positions:

* full stack engineers

* growth engineer (optimizing our growth and retention channels)

* iOS engineer

There is more information about the company on our hiring page, at http://academia.edu/hiring. There is more on TechCrunch about our mission here http://tcrn.ch/T42VWC (The Future of Peer Review) and here http://tcrn.ch/R6Pgrr (The Future of Science)

We want to hire world class engineers. We want you to join us in building the future of science whether you are based in San Francisco, New York, Delhi, or Beijing. Remote work is fine. We will handle re-location, including visas, if you would like to re-locate, but re-location is not necessary.

If you are interested to learn more, please email Ryan Jordan at ryanj [at] academia.edu

Kaggle San Francisco Developer

http://kaggle.theresumator.com/apply/3s1xdU/Developer.html?s...

As a Kaggle developer, you'll be building the platform that helps solve many of the most valuable problems in data science. You'll guide the development of tools that automate the process of setting up a competition, verifying winning models, and integrating those models into our customers' operations. The tools you will develop go the heart of Kaggle's mission and technology offering.

On a typical day, you will:

* use whatever machine and monitors you want.

* write code for our back-end using the latest version of C#, ReSharper, ASP.NET MVC, and Azure. Front-end developers use tools like jQuery, LESS, and often experiment with other tools like backbone.js.

* work on new code and tests in your own git branch.

* Develop and own entirely new features on our site.

* push your code to production (often every day) and see how our users use it

* follow the pulse of what’s happening in our company-wide chat room (today we discussed a cool paper on statistics in baseball)

* discuss new evaluation metrics and other data science-y concepts with the data science team

* participate in and learn from whiteboard sessions on things like how Gradient Boosting Machines work

* optimize pages based on profile stats

* investigate new tools, books, etc, to see if they might help make your development work better. Get whatever tools you need that help: no painfully long corporate approval required

* work with our data science guys to detect and mitigate suspicious activity on the site

* work with our designer on creating new views on the website. He’ll make it look nice so you can focus on functionality in the model and controller. You're also encouraged to make the front-end look great if you like doing that.

* write code for back-end processing such as data analysis and submission scoring

Invodo, Looking for Senior Software Engineer Austin, TX, remote strongly unlikely (I'm going to copy-paste pieces from the job posting, but if you'd like more information or are just curious about what we're doing, drop me a line at mbrace@invodo.com).

What we do: Invodo helps businesses sell more through the power of video. As a full-service video solution, Invodo creates high-quality video at scale, delivers it through retail-focused technology, and publishes to Facebook, YouTube and retail channel partners to expand the impact. The Invodo video solution increases conversion rates, reduces returns and drives site traffic for clients including Internet 500 retailers and major manufacturers.

Invodo is an early-stage company so as a Senior Software Engineer you will play an incredibly important role in the success of both our clients and Invodo.

Software Engineers are expected to take ownership of substantial software modules, assist with technical product design, and contribute to the software engineering process at Invodo. The development will be concentrated on our core content management system and analytics platform (my.invodo.com). This customer-facing application software is written in Java/GWT using Hibernate and MySQL backend services.

Nearly all of our infrastructure services are written using Scala while the web application is currently written in Groovy (historical artifact at this point). It's hard to cover everything we do technology-wise in a short post, but we have our own player, make heavy use of CDNs for content distribution, our own analytics system and platform as well as an end-to-end workflow management tool used internally and externally for the video production, management and hosting process (the latter is where we're looking to hire).

The entire engineering team is less than 20 people, including operations, professional services and management. There are currently 9 developers (if I'm counting correctly) and all of the work the engineering department does is recognized throughout the company.

Feel free to send your resume/github/project urls to mbrace@invodo.com or ismarc31@gmail.com.

Cambridge, MA (Kendall Square) (on-site, no remote)

Software Engineer/Senior Software Engineer at Cogo Labs (http://www.cogolabs.com/)

Cogo Labs is a company that creates companies, kind of like an incubator with a twist: all of our ideas/startups come from within the company. We don't offer investment in outside startups. Thus far we have had two major ($100MM+) acquisitions, and a handful of smaller ones, and we are anticipating more in the near future. Typically, once a startup we are incubating gets off the ground, we hire employees into that startup and assist them with whatever they need to make the company successful. Cogo Labs itself has around 40 full-time employees now in our office in Kendall Square in Cambridge, MA.

I'm looking for a software engineer or senior software engineer to join my team. You should have a degree in CS or a similar field, and experience developing for the web, as most of our startups are web properties. Specific experience in Ruby, Rails, and/or Python are a plus, but not absolutely necessary. I'm more concerned with finding smart people than finding people with specific skills.

I am currently developing new features for a web site that we run that gets >50k unique visitors per day, and you'd be assisting in this effort. I can be more specific if you're invited for an interview.

We are big on metrics and analysis -- there are grids of monitors (we call them "NOC walls") all over the office showing up-to-the-minute stats about all of our properties. I can code up a new feature, deploy it, and walk over to one of the NOC walls and literally watch my change affect traffic on the site, or revenue, or profit. It's a really fun place to work. Benefits and perks are great as well (see http://cogolabs.com/careers for more info).

If you're interested, shoot me an email (cmatthias at cogolabs.com) with your resume and a brief cover letter (be sure to mention you saw this post on HN). Bonus points for including a link to your github page or other code repository where I can see some code you've written.

rsync• 14 years ago

rsync.net is hiring an implementation engineer.

We created 1TB and 10TB annual "packages" earlier this year, and one of the benefits that customers receive is a concierge level of implementation support.

Basically the customer declares what their environment looks like, and we design a solution that effectively (and efficiently) performs their offsite backup to us.

So for instance a customer might arrive with a collection of Windows VMs running on Xen, and this implementation engineer would dialog with the customer and decide whether to populate the account with physical (fedex) delivery, whether to backup the images from the underlying Xen system, or whether to do file level backup from inside the VMs.

This individual should have a very broad sysadmin-style technical background, ranging across UNIX, all variants of Windows, and Mac. In addition, some idea as to how vmware/xen/hyperv environments work, as well as things like exchange/SQL Server/etc. - that is what customers have to back up.

This individual should be a "lifer". If you're pursuing an exciting and lucrative career in the field of Information Technology, don't contact us. If you're not running your own mail server, jailbreaking your own devices, running your own servers and appliances (FreeNAS, OpenWRT, etc.) at home, you're not going to fit here.

OTOH, if you're a "fixer" who can "just make things work" and can juggle a collection of high priority clients, please contact us: info@rsync.net

NationBuilder.com

Downtown Los Angeles, Full Time, software developers and designers.

NationBuilder is a Community Organising System.

All the great positive changes in society have been driven by the millenia-old art of Community Organising. Moses, Martin Luther King Jr and Ghandi were Community Organisers.

The Internet provides the sheer reach to grow new movements faster than before, but the tools have been difficult to integrate and use, or they have been directed towards throwing animated cows rather than bringing people together to solve problems.

NationBuilder seeks to bring the power of community organising to the web for the lowest possible price so that grass-roots leaders can assemble followers in real-time, at scale, to create positive social change at a pace and scale that has never been seen before. Fundamentally, it brings together your web site, social integration, communications, and CRM in one place.

We are already changing US politics, but that is just the beginning. We seek to empower everyone in the world who wants to be a leader to build their community, whether they're a film-maker, a blogger, a grandma, a political dissident, a small business owner, or all of the above.

To do this, we have assembled a world-class team of Ruby on Rails hackers. Everyone is a full-stack developer and committed to the highest possible standards of excellence. Unlike everyone else in this space, we are fundamentally a tech company - not a consultancy, a think-tank, or the tech wing of a political party.

We practice continuous deployment. Committed code can be pushed to production in less than 5 minutes - and that INCLUDES running the full test suite on our CI platform.

We practice promiscuous pairing. You will be working directly with great people who know the product inside and out.

You will be using the latest Retina Macbook Pro or Macbook Air, working in one of the coolest spaces in Downtown LA with access to the best restaurants, arts, culture and weather in the US. The cost of living is low and the lifestyle is great. There is an epic 2-level restaurant/bar on our roof.

We have a real product with thousands of customers, yet our tech team is just 11 people. Anyone who joins today will have a massive influence on the product and market.

Our recent Series A was led by Andreessen Horowitz and Sean Parker, and angel investors include Chris Hughes. Sean Parker and Ben Horowitz are on our board, and our co-founders Jim Gilliam and Jesse Haff built Brave New Films and took on the Iraq War and Walmart while creating an entirely new model of film financing and distribution.

Freedom Freight

Rails Developer, iOS Developer

The last 50 years has seen the reinvention of almost every major industry except for one: Trucking. Freedom Freight is here to change that by deploying the world's first mobile platform for on-demand freight shipping. Over $30 billion dollars a month is spent trucking freight around the US, without it, the country would grind to a halt overnight. In such a massive market, it's hard to believe that the entire industry today still runs on phones and fax machines, but until now, it has. This means 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.

If you're ready to change the trucking industry, send your resume and GitHub profile to sean@freedomfreightusa.com

http://osmeta.com/about/ tells you a few things about the kind of people involved. It's not time yet for us to publicize details of what we do, but do look carefully at what our team members have done in the past.

For the software engineering position, we aren't looking for any specific domain expertise because what we're doing involves significant depth and breadth of knowledge and programming skills. It's highly likely that a great programmer with experience on any platform and in any compiled programming language will find our work interesting, challenging, and rewarding. Examples of "any" would be one or more of C, C++, and Objective-C on one or more of Android, iOS, Linux, OS X, and Windows.

[Interested in what we do? Come say hi to us and play with our API [http://dev.locu.com/] at the TechCrunch Disrupt Hackathon [http://techcrunch.com/events/disrupt-sf-2012/event-info/] in San Francisco next weekend! -sbisker]

San Francisco, CA - Senior Front-End Engineer at Locu (http://www.locu.com/)

Locu is developing technologies to change local search ($35bn advertising market by 2014) by creating the world's largest semantically-annotated repository of real-time small-business data. We have recently launched Locu (http://www.locu.com/), our first product, which helps restaurants better manage their online presence.

We have more exciting ideas for our data than we have resources to build them. Your job will be to help us change that.

We're looking to hire a Senior Front-End Engineer. Generalists and "desingineers" would also do well in this position, as we have plenty of work to do on those fronts as well - but significant front-end experience is crucial. You should feel comfortable making major front-end architecture decisions and being a company-wide advocate for building intuitive, responsive interfaces that surprise and delight.

Guidelines (requirements is such a strong word):

  4+ years of experience building rich, interactive websites

  Experience leading or managing an engineering team a plus - if you don't have it,
  we'll give you a chance to mentor and grow as an leader.

  Exceptional cross-browser JavaScript/jQuery, HTML and CSS skills. 
  (For better or worse, we fully support IE8 - that's where small business owners are, 
  at least for a little while.) 

  Experience in proper UI engineering, particularly in Javascript. The deeper your JS
  experience, the better. 
  (Framework experience (Backbone, Handlebars, etc) and opinions about when 
  they should and shouldn't be used is a +.)

  Ability to go out of your comfort zone and write a server-side controller if no one 
  else is around is a + 
  (Experience with Python / Django in particular is a ++.)

  A good sense of design and/or an ability to work with designers 
  (We won't make you "design all the things", but being able to draw on past 
  experience designing dashboards and other user interfaces is a +.)

Special note for Generalists and Desingineers

  We know you like to strike your own unique balance. So don't sweat the reqs and just 
  show us what you've got.
  We want you to be able to do what you love, the way you're best able to do it. :)

Interested? Drop us a line at jobs@locu.com. Please specify "Senior Front-End Engineer - HN", in the subject of your letter. Learn more about us at http://www.locu.com/about/jobs/

Los Altos: Machine Learning Scientist. Full Time (H1B okay) - Ness Computing http://likeness.com

We are machine learning specialists who work together on real-world challenges. Everyone on our team takes ownership of problem-solving, from ideas all the way through implementation. Our favorite types of problems are the ones that others consider impossible.

Everything the ML team builds is product-driven to solve a specific customer pain. While we are looking for people who are experts in a specific area, we believe that the best solutions come from collaboration. We expect people to apply their expertise to domains they have not previously worked in.

We use principled machine learning approaches, and encode product-level intuition and needs, but are comfortable with using heuristics to get the last mile.

You should be familiar with recent ML literature.

Bonus points if you have a deep background in one of the following: + information retrieval / search ranking, natural language processing + collaborative filtering, ontology management / data normalization + data mining packages such as Weka, SAS, EViews, Matlab and R + "big-data" frameworks such as Hadoop, HBase, or Cassandra

We primarily work on Symfony 2 (http://symfony.com) projects with some legacy Symfony 1.4. We are currently in the process of moving more of our projects to the "cloud".

The work environment is great. We have nerf guns, remote helicopters, and a large break room with free snacks and Mountain Dew. There is also plenty of fresh fruit and juice if that's what you're into.

Just for full disclosure, I'm a Senior Developer, not the HR department. You can check out our web site at http://iostudio.com or feel free to send me your resume Joshua.Estes@iostudio.com and I can pass them along to the HR department.

Top 5 reasons why you should move to Berlin, now:

1. Lowest livings costs with highest quality of living. Stay in gorgeous, perfectly renovated apartments in pre-WWII residential buildings with high ceilings, right in the middle of the center and pay a fraction of costs of any other capital (even cheaper than any Eastern European capital). No need for a car—Berlin has one of the densest subway nets and wide streets make biking fun. In addition, Germany has an amazing social health care system including health, unemployment and pension (when working as an employee).

2. A vibrant and fast growing ecosystem of smart people. A vast number of new software talents, founders, software companies and VCs are moving to Berlin, every day (Twitter, Google, Soundcloud, Early Bird and many more).

3. People here are open-minded, outgoing, mix well and international—no need to learn German, everyone speaks English! Making new friends is a matter of days. Visit tons of networking and startup events, every week.

4. Easy work permissions—Europeans do not need any and can work from day one and the rest applies for the hassle-free Blue Card.

5. Berlin's night life is unmatched, huge and changing every day (plus ridiculously cheap). Berlin has got some of the most dazzling, naughty, and original clubs on the face of the Earth.

Berlin is calling and getting the new tech hub of Europe. If you are passionate about building great software, we’d love to talk with you. If you don't live in Berlin yet, we could help to fix that.

Universal Pictures International - Junior Developer/Data Scientist, International Research

We're certainly not a startup, but our department acts like one as much as possible.

We're building tools to forecast, simulate, and model the box office market. We're developing simulations and models to give us estimates on how the market responds to social media, weather, video games, et cetera, and we're building web apps and ipad apps to present this information to key people in a way they can use and understand. We need your help taking the project to the next level.

What you'll be doing:

1) Maintaining, debugging, and adding features to our existing apps (browser and ipad) that help people configure and use our simulations. 2) Keeping our software on amazon ec2 online. 3) Help us build new tools to allow people to interface with our newer models. 4) Help us develop new models and simulations that can give us deeper insight into how the market behaves and that can respond to historical and live data as it comes in (machine learning)

What we use:

* A lot of python (web.py) and javascript (jquery, jqtouch) * amazon ec2 for running the simulations * Whatever gets the job done. We have code written in Racket, and we're certainly not shy about experimenting with your favorite language. (I'm learning Haskell and plan to be using at work for some experiments, for instance)

Who we're looking for:

This is primarily a programming position, so we're looking for someone who is enthusiastic about coding and the tools they use, has an love of clean code, new languages and technologies, and likes statistics.

Bonus points if you like film, functional languages and mathematics.

San Francisco: Fulltime

Do you like talking about code as much as you like writing code? Hackbright Academy is looking for instructors for our ten week code school. We teach a blend of practical engineering skills and computer science theory to a small group of aspiring engineers. More information on what we do can be found here: http://www.hackbrightacademy.com.

We're looking for engineers who really know their stuff and are looking for something different. Generalists or specialists of any discipline are welcome; we value communication more than any other specific skill. We write and teach in python and javascript, but that shouldn't matter to you.

Alongside teaching, your responsibilities will include designing curriculum and writing internal tools. We're offering a developer's salary, equity, and an absurd amount of vacation time.

We're not building earth-shattering software here, but we're empowering a new generation of engineers to do so. If that interests you, email me at c@hackbrightacademy.com.

New York, NY. Full time. We're looking for devops, python engineers and frontend (js/backbone) engineers.

Percolate is a very quickly growing SAAS company in NYC. We are building a tool that helps brands create content across social. What makes us unique is that we're the only platform that doesn't already assume a brand knows what to say. To help them figure that out we pull data from across the web and make recommendations on interesting content (whether their own or third-party) that might be interesting at any moment.

We're looking for devops (!!!), backend and frontend engineers (we run backbone.js alongside our RESTful API) to join the team (the company is 21, product team is currently at 12). On the backend, we're especially interested in folks with good experience working with lots of data and excited to build real-time systems (we run python).

Here's a few reasons why you should come work here: - You are gonna work in SOHO on Broadway - Your chance to work with big data - You come in early: We're only-and-a-half a year old - As we get bigger, you will be able to focus on what you are good at - We are all different and we love it - GPL compliant company - You choose your workstation - You choose your tools - No worries, free your mind: NY salary + medical + dental - No vacation policy - does not mean no vacation ;) - Company invests in you: Fly to PyCon and other conferences - We prefer quality over quantity: Focus on clean code and test coverage - Your voice will be heard

If you're interested email us at jobs@percolate.com. If you have any questions you can email me directly at noah@percolate.com

London: Python and Erlang Engineers, FT, not remote

Smarkets (https://smarkets.com)

Smarkets is a real-time online trading platform with an Erlang backend and Python frontend. Smarkets is disrupting the global betting industry by offering a modern betting exchange platform with significantly lower transaction fees than the competition. We have traded over £150 million of bets since launching in February 2010.

The part of our stack which runs behind the website is one of the few that uses Erlang as a primary language, and is supported by other well-known Erlang projects such as RabbitMQ and CouchDB.

The non-Erlang pieces of our stack are mostly written in Python, and relies heavily on asynchronous programming techniques and REST. We use the following technologies: VirtualBox, Vagrant, Flask, gunicorn, PostgreSQL, Ganglia, Icinga, Graphite, Cacti, Jenkins, Trac, Git and many other open source packages.

We are well-funded and growing quickly so are looking for Python and Erlang engineers to join our team. If you are looking for a flexible, agile team to work with; want to work somewhere free of big corporate politics; would like a cool project to work on; we’d love to hear from you!
