Pretty sweet. Are all these entries posted by companies themselves or did you do the posting? I love how it's neatly organised by language. Are you planning on adding any other layers/filters?

Edit - Why isn't this in Show HN?

sshsshssh2• 11 years ago

Updated to be in Show HN :) - thx

Yes I'm planning to add City/Location filters as well as advanced search option where you can see all available filters.

There is for example also https://startupdeveloperjobs.com/f/0/Erlang but you can't see it since it has not enough jobs

Edit: To answer your other question. Jobs are both entered by companies and also added by me manually.

As-is the site is not useful to me, but it has potential. The simple layout is awesome, not cluttered but still presents a bunch of info.

Location filters are must-have - whether it's just a sort by name so all of the $MY_CITY jobs are in one place, as a true filter so I only see one location or as some kind of location-based sort-by-distance to give me the best options first.

Congrats on shipping!

drincruz• 11 years ago

Yea, I was just about to ask, "where are the location filters?".

Great work though! Cheers!

ilaksh• 11 years ago

If you have more than a billion dollars then you shouldn't call yourself a startup. The term has lost most of its meaning.

Maybe 'internet' 'high tech'.

drsintoma• 11 years ago

Jobs in Berlin! sweet! If you don't mind maybe I'll index you on _my_ meta-search engine https://englishjobs.de/

No salaries listed = useless

niix2• 11 years ago

Not sure if I agree with that 100%. Not every job listing you find online is going to have salaries posted.

u04f0613• 11 years ago

Not necessary for this sort of ads.

digitalboss• 11 years ago

I'll have to disagree with you on this when you say "useless". Most sites don't post a salary, and for those few that do, a range is listed.

I like using https://angel.co/jobs to find those companies that have raised $ and currently hiring. One thing about is that I'm not really sure how frequently these startups have the time to update this on Angellist.

gargarplex• 11 years ago

What sites list salaries?

noahtkoch• 11 years ago

Neat site! Usability note, I would add something to catch all key strokes. When using the search bar(which is pretty cool looking) I started typing, searched, then I hit delete to clear the prompt and was sent back. Granted this is normal behaviour of any website, but given it's a command prompt, I'm used to it being always ready for my typing.

codingdave• 11 years ago

There is a search bar??

Let me look again... oh, wow, I totally ignored that, thinking it was just a design element to break up the header from the jobs.

niix2• 11 years ago

I like the layout. There are many sites like this, but this one is easy to use and gave me the results I wanted fairly quickly.

moubarak• 11 years ago

awesome, i subscribed to several search options. if there is a way to subscribe to several at once rather than each individually (with activation) perhaps it would be nicer. You seem like someone who can easily put that in. Great work. Also i think "remote" should be a search option up there, it has many results. Cheers.

Edit: The suggestions at the bottom of the detail page is perfect. it's what kept me on board.

sshsshssh2• 11 years ago

Thanks for the feedback! This is a planned feature.

bung• 11 years ago

In particular, I'm not sure if it matters, but I wouldn't mind knowing if "remote" also meant, say "remote from canada" was ok? Maybe "US Remote" and "Global Remote" tags?

thecupisblue• 11 years ago

This is the best job postings site I've seen in a long time. Bravo.

u04f0613• 11 years ago

Same thought here.

ychantit• 11 years ago

Great app ! Maybe you can add on the top of the list the number of results like in every search query ... so the user can estimate how much time he is going to scroll down...

MatthewMcDonald• 11 years ago

For posting a job, you might want to consider having the languages as tags (select many) rather than a category (select only one).

Edit: also, it's not clear if clicking Save will post the job immediately or not. After clicking around, I see that there are published and inactive sections.

rjbrock• 11 years ago

I disagree with the select many suggestion. So many job postings are full of popular languages but when you actually look at the job its clear that there is 1 language you will be using

u04f0613• 11 years ago

Add Groovy and Grails filter too. They don't fit in Java. Similar is the case for Scala.

hardwaresofton• 11 years ago

I was impressed by the number of listings (and really interesting seeming listings) -- great job.

rfrey• 11 years ago

Great work. I agree with others that maybe Uber and Instacart aren't exactly startups, but I'm sure candidates can filter that on their own.

One minor suggestion: when posting a job, perhaps indicate the 300 character limit in the "why should candidates apply" textbox title, and maybe a little character counter would be helpful.

500and4• 11 years ago

This is really good! Love the clean style. We tried to do something similar a while ago with http://www.zonino.co.uk although we scraped the jobs from startups sites which works quite nicely. Haven't updated for a ages though. You could consider doing something similar. I echo the comments about location filters! Please make that a priority!

elwell• 11 years ago

Like the interface. Not sure if SoundCloud is a startup though.

Rainymood• 11 years ago

The venture backed startup Uber

...

ugh

DLarsen• 11 years ago

I agree that the classification appears to be a bit broad.

thektrn• 11 years ago

Great site! Just a little confusion when searching. I thought there is no searching for a few seconds until I accidentally pressed a key on my keyboard.

yashesh321• 11 years ago

Simple and Great Site. Is there any way to filter startups who can sponsor Visas or open for remote.

lukasm• 11 years ago

You may want to checkout my repo https://github.com/lukasz-madon/awesome-remote-job

AKifer• 11 years ago

Your repo is awesome ! Thanks for sharing all these stuffs

gfodor• 11 years ago

I'm getting an SSL cert error, just FYI.

kauegimenes• 11 years ago

Here is the Node.js? =(

dcole2929• 11 years ago

One thing I really like from a design perspective is the fact that you list the role (and Language) first. Often times I care a lot less about the company than about the position and stack I'd be applying for. Unless it's a particular well known startup most have likely never heard of the company anyway so it makes a lot of sense to not have that information be the focus of the listing.

glittershark• 11 years ago

For those of us outside the Bay and not looking to relocate, the ability to explicitly filter by location would be nice.

cblock811• 11 years ago

AirPair's listing in HTML/CSS includes:

Machine learning, Spam and relevance detection, NLP problems

Not sure that these would really fit, but it could just be me.

tylerpachal• 11 years ago

Really like the commandline-esque search bar

soci• 11 years ago

Looks great! We started doing something similar three weeks ago at http://jobsBCN.com, but with the idea of covering all job openings from startups in Barcelona city (Europe).

We have more than 250 job openings for engineers (+250 for biz) in more than 160 startup companies in Barcelona. Salaries are shown for some of them.

It could be interesting to see how different technologies rank against salaries, or regarding job openings. I hope to find the time to show some statistics soon.

djent• 11 years ago

I wish there were an equivalent for finding internships. One suggestion: integrate with Google Maps, allow the user to outline an area and show jobs in that area. I found myself searching the names of major cities in my area.

jacalata• 11 years ago

A friend of mine used to work on InternMatch, it might be useful for you (https://www.internmatch.com)

markdown• 11 years ago

OpenDNS
23andMe
Uber

Does startup just mean company in USA?

bryanmikaelian• 11 years ago

This looks great! Nice job.

jlarocco• 11 years ago

This would be significantly more useful with the ability to filter by location. Believe it or not, not everybody lives in San Francisco and New York.
