I noticed a few threads with people saying that their company is hiring and it's been about a month since the last one of these (so I'm sure needs have changed).
As a reminder, please include the location if you would need employees to work on-site.
Building things that people want is overrated. A person can derive great pleasure and satisfaction from ripping things apart instead. That's the gig we're offering. We work with some of the most interesting companies, along with lots of companies with interesting technology you've never heard of.
This job has had me write compilers, learn Scala, reverse and interoperate with freaky network protocols, test chipsets, write hypervisors, extend debuggers, and crawl through the heating ducts and garbage chutes of several of the biggest web apps out there. It is a very cool gig.
And, I have news! Since last I posted this appeal, we've opened a Bay Area office. I'm hiring in NYC. I'm hiring in Chicago. And I'm hiring in SFBay.
We're looking first and foremost for people who can code and who have a deep interest in software security. I've been thrilled with the quality of people I've gotten to talk to on HN. You can't possibly waste my time. My contact info is in my profile.
I swore off that sh-t ten years ago. I just got too worried about lawsuits, hit men (some toughs show up and you've got 30 seconds to decide how badly you want to mess them up to minimize your risk of future problems), wondering which people on the mailing lists and IRC channels I was on were spooks... and then there was the time that I got the FBI to investigate Japan's #1 superheroine.
I decided it was much better to build things that people want after all.
Nice post! You're right about how sometimes it is more fun to rip things apart than to build them. For example: I remember running a fuzzer on a brand new Solaris 10 install several years back and when the server spontaneously rebooted itself, I knew I had just found a remote root exploit.
I can vouch for this. I started at Matasano two months ago, and am very pleased to find seriously bright people and a really fun gig. As one of the Matasanoans said, it is curiosity that is important in this gig, not paranoia or certificates. I have always enjoyed drilling down to find out what makes something tick. Clients ask us to find vulnerabilities in their systems. The gigs involve burping web apps, pulling apart C# and Java programs, understanding C, machine language, or even firmware and hardware.
And the coding part is most often in ruby or jruby (and yes, I do try to sneak in a little clojure past Tom). You don't need to know Ruby coming in the door, but if you are a good programmer, you will pick up in no time.
Check us out.
(Ok, back to breaking things. But they tell me I should stop breaking tools in the black bag, though.)
SSi Micro is hiring great hackers. Know C pretty well, be great at one high-level language (Python, PHP, whatever), be a quick learner (and we mean quick), and then come and be a propellerhead at our awesome, small company.

We're a little company based in Yellowknife, the capital city of the Northwest Territories. We deliver broadband satellite internet to 61 of the most remote communities on earth, and now that our network's up and running (although we're investing heavily in upgrading it), we're busy building great software for our customers, optimized specifically for our unique network.
Right now, we're building a file sharing webapp. Why not just use dropbox, you ask? Well, our network is pretty unique: all our traffic is bounced off a satellite, and round-trip latency of ~600ms (which is because of the horrible limitation of the speed of light, which we are constantly working to exceed) means that we have to do things a little differently. SSi is so cool that when we won a government contract to do "time-shifted file transfers", we decided that we /could/ meet our contractual obligations with a few weeks of work/testing, but instead we're building a wicked webapp that brings the functionality to everyone on our network, not just big clients with IT departments.
Yellowknife's not as cold as you think, and the 24-hours-of-daylight summers are not to be missed.
If you're interested and game, we'll make an offer really easy to accept: We'll get and pay for your apartment, a car if you need it, and pay you atop that. We'll do all that for up to three months while you evaluate us and the north, so that it's risk- and hassle-free for you to come to a really great, unique company in an awesome little city.
Today it's a balmy 9 Celsius. Sure, the winter brings a couple weeks of -35 C and below, but with a solid parka and the same resolve we're looking for in our hackers, you can hack it. :)
And that bridge... What a nightmare. It's been in the works for years, tens of millions over budget, and it's become a local joke. "Yea, we'll finish that once the bridge is finished."
Also, you only have to take the ferry in the warm months--from January to mid-April you get to drive on the ice road. There's a show about it on Discovery called Ice Road Truckers (oddly, everybody here loathes the show, despite some of our locals being on it). It's pretty fun to be cruising down a shoveled track of ice on a huge frozen lake, radio blaring. Yes, there are roadsigns on the ice road. :)
Here in Padova, the flowers are blooming, everything is breaking out in green, it is 25C, and I went for a drink in the piazza with nothing but a short-sleeved shirt this evening. Yellowknife like a fascinating place, but one I'd rather read about or, at most, visit, rather than live in. Good luck though:-)
Thanks! For sure, the weather isn't for everyone. We /do/ get great summer weather (it'll be over 20C before the end of May), but it's a short season. Padova sounds gorgeous!
(Just a Manly-Man-o'-the-North note: I'm wearing shorts and a t-shirt today. We bust out the summer clothes at anything above 5C.) :)
It took me some getting used to. I've been here 14 months now, and I did get a little lethargic at the beginning of the dark, dark winter months. And slightly manic in the all-sun summer light. But I adapted pretty quickly.
Justin.tv is hiring engineers who want to work on a site that gets used by 30m people a month. We have 250gbps in house capacity. Scary as it is, engineers who graduated undergrad last year run our deployment system, video system, and more. You will get thrown in the deep end on production systems.
You should email me directly - greg@dropcam.com. We code for the cameras and the server-side, mostly Python/C -- and there are many terabytes of data to work with. We also have an iPhone app and will support more mobile platforms in the future.
We're looking for generalist engineers who know C like the back of their hand but prefer to code in a higher level language like Python 90% of the time. You should also have experience with IP/networking or a voracious enough learning appetite to get it fast: we work with protocols a lot, and not just HTTP. Linux knowledge will come in handy too ... understanding file systems, system calls, toolchains, etc a plus.
You might work on web, iPhone, embedded camera code, and video server code all in the span of one project -- we don't like silos. Everyone here is an engineer and writes code. Our current team consists of core engineers from Xobni and DivX.
We've been too busy to write up a fancy jobs page, but there are ample sodas, salary, and equity :)
And FYI, we're funded by Mitch Kapor, David Cowan, and Aydin Senkut.
We're working on a high quality question and answer site.
Some of the tools we are using include Python, Pylons, nginx, memcached, Thrift, and git. We're using continuous deployment and EC2, so all code you write will go live to production within minutes no matter what time it is.
Airbnb is hiring 10+ people right now. In particular, we could use some Front End Engineers (backend knowledge is a big plus). Our team is small and you will have a huge impact on the product.
Email me directly at chris@airbnb.com if you:
1) are nasty with Javascript / CSS / HTML
2) can prove it with existing work on great websites or projects
Just wanted to say that I've met most of the folks at Airbnb and they are all unbelievably awesome. Seriously check them out, they're doing some amazing things.
I'm hiring a team to help develop a new user-facing Data Product built on top of LinkedIn's massive dataset of 65 million member profiles, connection graph, recommendations, company database, and other rich information sources - both internal and external. I described a bit about what it is like working on our team earlier this month on the LinkedIn blog: http://blog.linkedin.com/2010/04/20/linkedin-data-scientist-...
To accelerate the application process, feel free to ping me directly (info in my HN profile).
Front end engineer working directly with me & the Data team. You will be wiring up an application and UI that serves millions of users, pulling data from sources like Voldemort and relational databases. Looking for solid developers who can quickly crank out a solid web app in Java, Rails, or Django. Should be someone who iterates quickly and thinks about scale. Interest in information design / interaction is a plus.
Another role that might be of interest to HN readers: You will work closely with the Light Engineering Development team to configure, deploy, and monitor production-ready applications using any or many of: apache, nginx, memcached, mongrel, thin, Passenger Phusion, rabbitmq, redis, sphinx, and anything else it takes to get the job done.
We also need more data scientists to focus on the machine learning algorithms & statistical processing behind this and other similar products we have in the works. Experience with things like Hadoop, Mechanical Turk, & Info Retrieval a plus:
It's a pretty simple premise. Every day I feature a new company that is hiring. You can browse by tag, so for the sake of the HN crowd I'll plug myself twice more.
San Mateo, CA - http://epocrates.com working on an electronic health record system. If you have RoR && ( jQuery || moo || prototype.js || yui) skills, please email me. We use Shoulda, continuous integration (hudson), macbook pros with external monitors, &etc. This is a nice place to work with smart people -- we're working hard on the v1 of a new product, but have a midsize company's resources and maturity (benefits, experienced management, sane buy vs build mentality, &etc.)
It's also pretty cool to go into work each day and know that you are working towards saving lives and helping the medical industry.
They just got new offices in Mountain View. Check the jobs page for compensation and such.
You get to write functional data structures with hardcore low-level C/C++ and the linux kernel, and run awesome experiments on really fast hardware. Plus, I can promise you that Mike and Slava are really cool guys and you'll love hanging out with them.
LimeWire is hiring Python, Scala, Java, and Javascript developers to help build its next generation music service.
I am the tech lead of the REST APIs component, which is written in Scala. We are using a Service Oriented Architecture with back end services written in Python and Java, all communicating via Thrift. RabbitMQ, MySQL, Memcached, Solr, Riak and cloud deployment round out our back end stack. Front end is HTML5/CSS3. We use Git.
With 5 weeks paid time off + 10 holidays, free lunch every day, made-to-order breakfast twice a week, and rooftop parties, it's easy to get used to working here.
Yelp is hiring back end, front end, and mobile engineers (check http://yelp.com/jobs). We use Python for a lot of the web site and search services are mostly Java. As an engineer you'll be working on new features and scaling existing features to work with our ever increasing traffic. Best work environment I've ever had the pleasure of working in.
We're located in downtown San Francisco.

More job details: https://www.jambool.com/socialgold/corp/jobs
FathomDB is hiring engineers to work on our new scalable relational database: if you'd rather solve 'impossible' problems than work on yet another database-driven website where your biggest problem is going to dealing with bugs in the Facebook API; if you'd prefer to build something that will power real businesses for the next 20 years instead of building a Twitter add-on that'll be obsoleted when they launch their own version in a few months; if you'd rather invent the future than read about it; then email jobs @ fathomdb.com
And we're pretty serious about being a flat and equal team - we stirred up some good reactions on HN with a blog post about why we don't believe in job titles:
Come help us change the heart of commerce from the ground up. Hard problems, smart people, and the coolest office space in Brooklyn await you. Check out our development blog for a taste of what we're working on behind the scenes:
Always a Bridesmaid is looking for developers to start ASAP (open to contractors, summer interns or full-time employees). I am a second year at Stanford GSB and will be graduating in June and working on building this business full time. We are going to build a one-stop shop online for bridesmaid dresses. The bridesmaid dress industry is a $2 billion industry in the U.S. that is fraught with pain and dominated by brick and mortar local mom and pops shops (only 19% of bridesmaid dress purchases were made online in 2009). We are going to do for the bridesmaid dress industry what Blue Nile did for diamond engagement rings.
What we are looking for:
Web developer – either one person who can handle both front and back-end or one front-end developer one back-end developer. We are going to build an e-commerce site that is overlayed with additional functionality, including workflow and coordination tools; this will be a group shopping platform where the bride can act as a mini site administrator with her bridesmaids connected to her account. We are either going to use Magento as the e-commerce platform upon which we customize or we are building from scratch (we need help evaluating the risk of customizing on top of Magento given that the coordination tools are critical to our value proposition).
Front-end skills should include UX and UI experience. We would love to have someone who can help us with look and feel but are planning on having a graphic designer work with us on this if we cannot find a front-end developer who can do this too.
On the back-end, we would like to set up our website for robust analytics, inventory management, integration with an accounting system, etc. Past experience building a website end-to-end is a must; experience with e-commerce and/or social-networking platforms is a plus.
Founder, Ilana Stern: Prior to the GSB, Ilana worked as a Buyer for Bloomingdales, where she spent a portion of her time purchasing dresses for Bloomingdale’s nationwide. Last summer she worked for Bonobos, an e-commerce apparel start-up, and as a management consultant at Boston Consulting Group. Ilana received her BA from University of Pennsylvania in 2005 where she focused on International Relations.
If interested, contact Ilana at stern_ilana@gsb.stanford.edu

Your legal document has an error. You cannot arbitrarily decide to pay your members (LLC partners) as 1099 contractors. You must follow IRS rules. From reading the rest of the description of your plan, IRS rules will be contrary to your 1099/contractor classification.
The company was chartered under the legal guidance of The Berkman Center, specifically The Vermont Project. We worked diligently through the unique legal formation to be sure it complied with all tax code and SEC laws. There is nothing in our legal agreement that explicitly states we are LLC partners, but rather a member owned and managed LLC under Vermont law.

We're a Software Security Company looking for great Security Engineers. I'm the Director of Security Services at Security Innovation, so if you have any questions e-mail me at jobs@securityinnovation.com
Here's our "informal" job description:
Are you passionate about software security? Do you look at MD5 and RC2 with disgust? Do you find yourself reciting hexadecimal often... in little endian order? Do you find security issues everywhere you look? Do you often wonder how software security can be so broken, and why more people don't understand how SQLi, XSS, and CSRF work? Do you smile uncontrollably when you see 0x41414141 on the stack? Would you rather stay up all night, for 12 hours strait, writing a tool to automate a task than do something repetitive and boring for an hour?
If so, then I have great news for you - Security Innovation is hiring! We're looking for somebody who will fit in with our current team of extremely talented security engineers. We pay well, have great benefits, and provide a budget for annual security conferences. We have an awesome office downtown and get to travel occasionally.

This is from a friend of mine:
I recently changed jobs to a software company with a focus on utilities - OPOWER - and we're growing rapidly. I was employee 75 and we're projected to have over 150 by the end of the year. As software is our product, we need the best and smartest engineers and developers we can find. It's a very cool, casual atmosphere and a great place to work but being on the east coast, it's very hard to find the level of talent that we need.
On the off chance that you know anybody that would be willing to move to DC, please, please let them know that we're hiring. Beyond the fact that DC is, in fact, a great town to live in, it's a great company with wonderful benefits and new candidates receive options in a growing company. I know it's a long shot, but I figured it's at least a good excuse to get in touch. Seriously, we need the best people we can get, and fast.
