SpaceX, Los Angeles. Working remotely is not an option for new-hires. In December we became the first private organization to put a spacecraft into orbit and return it safely (highlights: http://spacex.com/multimedia/videos.php?id=57). The other entities who've done this are all governments or governmental collaborations. SpaceX is continuing our expansion. Want to write code that lives on the International Space Station or controls our vehicle while it visits? Want to help humanity colonize Mars? Drop us a line, we're hiring. Visit spacex.com/careers for more info. For reasons relating to ITAR, you must be a US citizen or permanent resident.
I saw your info session at MIT today. I am a senior in EECS at MIT doing a 5 year S.B./M.Eng. program. I like machine learning/vision and robotics and would love to get my hands dirty writing software that controls real physical systems. I've published research at the intersection of cognitive science and decision theory and just won first place at MIT's autonomous robotics competition. I've done various other projects that you can read about at http://snikolov.weebly.com. Shoot me an email at snikolov@mit.edu if you think there is a match (especially in the avionics software group).
I'm 34 and recently engaged, but I would seriously move there and work for free if you would let me (and had a couch for me to sleep on). I am a US citizen but unfortunately my fiancee isn't on board.
If you live in Europe, you can try to contact the Copenhagen Suborbital guys[1].
Our mission is very simple. We are working towards launching a human being into space.
This is a non-profit suborbital space endeavor, based entirely on sponsors and volunteers.
I'd like to apply as a new grad (I'm graduating in May), do you have time to chat via email or phone so we could talk about which position would be best, or should I just apply to one and see what happens?
I'm curious as to how helpful these threads have been to both seekers and employers. Has anyone found a job through one of these threads? Do employers get meaningful applications?
These threads are one of our top 2 most effective hiring vectors; we've hired many people off HN, and the candidates we get from HN are the best candidates we get from any source.
The caliber of people we've been able to hire from HN is one of the primary reasons I spend time here.
Your posts here are consistently useful and informative. The HN community is definitely better for your presence. I'm glad you are getting something in return, while at the same time providing jobs to HN readers.
I posted a link that I am hiring a few weeks ago, and not only did I get a lot of hits, but I also got a lot of great resumes; some of the best resumes I have ever seen.
I second tptacek. This is one of the most effective places we have found candidates - we just hired our 3rd person from HN. Every candidate that has approached us through HN has been thoughtful and intelligent - although obviously not everyone is a match for what we are working on. Certainly I can offer anyone from here a actual person to talk to about your background and interests and what we are working on.
I found my current job at Monetate here, and am quite happy with the ease I was brought aboard. When I was looking last summer, it was easy to ctrl+f the hiring threads for my location. On the whole, I find the job descriptions succinct -- an immediate snapshot of what it would be like to work somewhere is important. And finally, the quick communication after I made contact gave me confidence that this place was serious about finding the right people.
Groupon is still hiring developers. We have an aggressive hiring plan for the rest of the year. All job openings are at http://groupon.com/jobs. The jobs are all cooler than the posts make them sound - we're working on that.
Location: We have offices in Chicago and downtown Palo Alto. A unique thing about our dev team is that for most jobs, it doesn't matter which office you work out of. Both offices have most jobs, people travel between offices as needed or desired, and we have good teleconferencing practices.
Upcoming projects:
- scaling for big, big traffic growth
- Big Data work around personalization and more
- lots of new projects, both internal and public
- Most work is in Rails but previous Rails knowledge isn't a requirement. Previous awesomeness is a requirement though.
Benefits:
- job security, market salaries - we're making money and just raised $1B
- talented and excited coworkers - there's energy here I haven't felt at any other place
- good development practices - increasing test coverage, requirements planning, post-mortems and retrospectives, etc
- laser powered cat mascot
- visa assistance and relocation on a case-by-case basis
If you're interested or have questions, email me at peterc@groupon.com and I can direct you to the right people.
I am an MBA(General) student at St. Bonaventure University. I like the motto of Khan Academy very much and would love to be a part of the organization. I am constrained area wise but if there is anything(Marketing, Human Resources) in "work-from-home" mode, I am all yours!
If your front-end dev work includes JS experience and you're interested in/passionate about math, our part-time contributors are currently focused on building out our JS-powered library of math practice exercises, and we would love help.
The not-for-profit I do work for has a lot of similar-sounding exercises. They're all written in Java (right now), but I'm working with our devs to get lots of them converted to JS/HTML5.
Marketing Engineer Intern: ideal for someone who wants to be a founder someday; lots of A/B testing implementation, making APIs do things they weren't designed to do, implementing crazy ideas from Dir of Mktg (me) and CEO
Director of Content: you will write a lot about investments/investing, find others who will write for us about said topics, link to yet others who write on said topic, and generally start putting us out there (consistent with our corporate voice, which we know but isn't public yet)
Marketing Intern: your standard social media douchebaggery, AdWords/landing page testing, and other "flood the funnel" activities
No job posting to link to, but I'm at sachin@blueleaf.com
Boston (US) as well as London (UK) - youDevise, Ltd.
We're a 65-person financial-software firm committed to learning and improvement as well as great web software and agile development. We're hiring developers and other smart folks of many kinds. See http://www.youdevise.com/careers and https://dev.youdevise.com.
While we don't have remote workers, we do help successful candidates relocate to London or Boston including arranging visas where needed. For example, last year we hired HN readers from Denmark and the US, and we moved a Polish employee to Boston.
Hi HN. We're not a product/platform company, and aren't in SV, but we do have one hell of a culture, myriad projects, and an unending pipeline of new work. To support that growth, we're planning on adding an additional 100 people during 2011. If you're interested, have questions, or send in a resume, please let me know. I want to make sure anyone coming from HN stands out in our application pool. matt.albiniak at nerdery d0t com
Most common thing heard around The Nerdery - "I learned more here in 3 months than I've learned anywhere else." Dog friendly, caffeine provided, developer owned and operated.
We have immediate openings for:
* Front End Dev - JS knowledge required, jQuery experience preferred.
* C# ASP.NET Developer - ASP.NET MVC preferred
* PHP Developer - Zend
* Actionscript Developer - AS3
* IA/UX Designer - previous FED experience
* Software Project Manager - you make juggling look easy
* IT Systems Technician - we're tech-centric. Not so much "can you install this" as much as "need ____ provisioned."
* iOS Developer - please hurry.
* ExpressionEngine Developer - see above.
Oh, and if you're not a great developer but understand tech (like me), we're hiring in sales, too.
Hirelite.com is on a mission to put headhunters out of business by hosting speed interviewing events where developers and companies conduct 20 interviews over video chat in 2 hours.
We have a few upcoming web-based events:
- For SF Bay Area/Silicon Valley jobs on Tuesday, 2/15
- For NYC jobs on Tuesday, 3/1
- For Boston jobs on Wednesday, 3/9
- We're considering hosting an event focused on remote jobs. Would that be of interest?
If you're interested in participating, feel free to email me any questions or sign up on http://www.hirelite.com. We have spaces available for both developers and companies.
when i read your intro paragraph all i thought was "like what the world need is more quick and shallow interviews"... but reading your site there are pretty good tips and vision.
you may focus that tagline in the time not wasted instead of the short interview time.
But we have an immediate need for a badass developer on our Product Marketing Demos team. We regularly use the latest technologies and platforms to build product prototypes, demonstrations, and visualizations that effectively communicate our product line.
To give you an idea, in the past three months alone, our team has used Ruby, Coffeescript, Backbone, Raphael, Java/Android, and Obj-C/iOS to build apps demoed across the world in front of over 30,000 people at our global events.
So if you like experimenting with upcoming technologies and want to make that part of your job description, email me at gopal.patel@salesforce.com
...And we work in downtown SF right along the embarcadero -- some of the best views of the bay and city.
I believe we do sponsor visas, but I'm checking to be sure...
In any case, we have offices around the world. So even if this specific position can't work, feel free to have them email me about other opportunities.
Sounds like a good opportunity. Are there developer positions in Toronto? (I had a look at the careers' site and there seems to be many senior positions so I'm not sure if I can fit in)
YAMMER helps turn the mayhem of the corporate world into return-on-investment unicorns and leveraged-employee-engagement butterflies.
We are a medium sized start-up that is battling several big enterprise software companies in this space. So yes, our target customers are in the enterprise space BUT we are turning this space upside down with our viral approach and how we build solutions for the user (which doesn’t include an army of salesmen). We are solving consumer type problems but also monetize like enterprise software. (i.e. real revenues with fewer users)
What's in it for you?:
-GOOD catered Lunch and Dinner daily
-Fancy Apple Hardware of your choice (you can have a PC if you REALLY want one)
-Amazing group of smart engineers (sounds cliche, but we really do have smart people here :D )
-Ability to have influence without authority.
-Working with technologies like Scala, Rails, and advanced JavaScript
-Wine and Whiskey Connoisseurs onsite at your disposal
-Our CEO is David Sacks, and yes, he is responsible for making the movie, "Thank You for Smoking".
-Top of the market Start-up Compensation (we pay to play)
If you have a data fetish then you should stop reading anything else on this page and email me personally at jferguson at yammer-inc dot com with your resume and tell me why you love it.
Big data, we've got that. Social networking, we've got that too. If you're tired of only dreaming about using data to iterate on a real product at a startup that is crushing everyone else in their space then you should get excited right now because Yammer is that place. Distributed databases, real time data streams, ruby, rails, scala; this is the position you've dreamed about your entire life! How many people get the opportunity to come work on a data team at a startup? Stop sitting around thinking about doing awesome things and come do them.
Also the food is delicious.. no really.. it's that good..
I was just hired here a month or so ago. This is by far the best place I've ever worked. Great people to work with (all of which are smarter than me), they treat us well with awesome catered lunches and dinners, supply us with the best hardware, and keep us happy.
Bottom line - Yammer makes sure you don't have to worry about anything so you can focus on the awesome problems that we get to solve.
(update)
Also, forgot to add that we get to work with all the cool toys - I've been having a blast with node.js :)

Bronto's a great company and the Engineering department is especially fun. The environment is great: 20' ceilings in an old tobacco warehouse, exposed 100-year old beams, gigantic windows, open floor plan. Foosball, lots of free drinks, snacks and food. Lots of freedom to build great stuff, no micromanagement.
Ft. Lauderdale, FL -- non-remote (worth the relocation!)
MCNA Dental Plans -- Looking for heads down engineers with Lisp experience or exposure.
Health care probably doesn't sound too interesting but this industrial-strength business application is being re-written from scratch in Common Lisp. The system being built includes a hybrid relational and graph database on Postgres, quasi-natural-language driven production rule systems, rich internet application (using Lisp to wrap/drive qooxdoo), and great graphics!
Did I mention working with 6 other awesome Lispers?
Guidewire Software - San Mateo, CA (mid-peninsula in the Bay Area, for non-natives)
We do core systems for insurance companies. No longer a startup (we're about 9 years old), but still privately held and doing very well financially.
The core work is in Java, but the platform is mostly a proprietary stack, including the Gosu language that we've recently open-sourced (http://gosu-lang.org) and are still actively developing.
We need developers on our applications and our platform, as well as product managers and QA. http://www.guidewire.com/careers for more details.

Hopper is a search engine for making trips. We use information extraction, machine learning, distributed computing and custom search algorithms to transform ridiculously huge volumes of data into useful information. Interested? Get in touch.
We hire smart people who get the job done. Yeah, we use a lot of Java. And RoR. And Hadoop, Cassandra, etc. We use AWS and we run a DC stuffed with custom-configured servers. In general, the knowledge of a specific technology/language/framework we already use can be helpful, but not a requirement. Chances are, you don't know everything you need to know to do this job. So willingness and ability to learn is a requirement.
I know it's not in the traditional vein of what people look for at HN, but Microsoft is hiring for Commercial Technical Support in Dallas (Irving) TX, Charlotte NC, and (I think) Fargo ND.

Note: I work for Microsoft in CTS, though I'm posting on my own.

You can email me at jlewicke@mdtadvisers.com with any questions you have.
don't dismiss it out of hand - I worked for about 20 months at a big financial corp and got a good laugh most days checking myself out in the corporate uniform . . .
it's not so bad, but it is funny if you come from a place where flip-flops and the shirt you painted the house in last weekend is normal M-F attire. It definitely took me awhile to get used to sitting in my cube in nice shoes.
I wear nice shoes to work sometimes, and sometimes I don't feel like it. Rules tend to make me bristle, especially meaningless ones like dress style. Horses for courses and all that.
You must have good experience with the platforms as you will initially be responsible for creating the app from scratch without any in-house expertise.

Denmark is the worst country in Europe. Do not even think of going there, you will regret it. Beside taxation is the highest in Europe (up to 60%) so you must be stupid to want to go and work in Denmark.
I saw there was an application for "Computer Science intern", is this newly created to solve this problem, or should I still be applying for the other positions I'm interested in?
By the way, the product looks amazing, but it's the team's enthusiasm that encouraged me to apply. A team that passionate has to be building something good. Keep it up guys.

As one of our first hires, you'll play a key role in shaping the company and culture, architecting the foundations of a very complex system, and designing the experience for a highly demanding user.

We have lots of challenging problems to work on at all layers of the stack: data cleaning and canonicalization, deduping, storage, serving, APIs, etc. If you love data, Factual is great place to be.

It seems there are a few South Africans around this site so giving it a shot. We're a small growing startup in the recurring billing space that just launched last week (www.snapbill.com).
We've got big plans and are pushing to get a lot into the system as soon as possible but need a little bit of help. Shoot me an email if you're interested.
note: I see you guys improved the writing on the homepage. Congrats! :) You went from this:
"SnapBill is an online invoicing and billing system with service provisioning capabilities. SnapBill is perfect for all businesses, especially those providing services requiring an automated recurring or subscription billing system and payment collection facilities."
to this:
"SnapBill is an online invoicing and billing system that allows you to easily sell your services online. SnapBill is perfect for businesses requiring an automated recurring or subscription billing system with payment collection facilities."
Much better. (But what are "payment collection facilities"? Does that mean you take care of credit card entry and such? Then say so.)
Now give it another go-over, there are still heaps of paragraphs on that page to be improved. Make it shorter (without loosing substance). Emphasize important points with bigger type.
Austin, Texas / On-site only / Gowalla Incorporated
A fun company with interesting problems, stellar designers and an unrelenting focus on great user experience. We're looking for an iOS developer, Ruby developers, an operations engineer and a BlackBerry developer.
I moved to Austin last year to join Gowalla and I love both.
We're hiring engineers for all kinds of roles, including mobile development (iOS, Android), infrastructure (node.js and Python), as well as engineering-oriented data analysts (we've got LOTS of data to mine). Extra points if you can do all of the above.
I've joined the startup a few weeks ago as a developer. We are pursuing multiple initiatives and I excited to start contributing right away. Our technology stack includes JavaScript, Python, Django, MySQL, data warehousing, etc. Free group lunch is served daily.
Remote a possibility for top notch people. Some developers comes in San Francisco every few weeks or every few months.
Kontagent measures people, not pages, and is a leading analytics platform for social application developers. The platform has been built to provide deep social behavior analysis and visualization that provides actionable insights via a hosted, on-demand service. It works with many of the world’s largest developers and brands, tracking thousands of social applications and games with over 70 million monthly active users.
We're a small, autonomous studio within EA building social games for gamers. Our first monetized title, Dragon Age Legends, is about to enter closed beta and has been generating a lot of buzz (http://pc.ign.com/articles/114/1146553p1.html).
Our Platform team is looking for mid to (very) senior engineers. You would be responsible for building the platform on which all EA2D games will run, from the pages that serve the HTML to the suite of game servers supporting them. Analytics, social network integration, shared services (REST), scaling, real-time stateful and stateless game servers -- this would all be your domain.
Our stack is primarily Java with MongoDB on the backend, but we're becoming increasingly polyglot (Python, Ruby) in the middle tier. We're hosted on EC2 (w/auto-scaling and on-demand environments) and practice continuous deployment. A sampling of the tech we use: Chef, git (GitHub), Hudson (now Jenkins?), ant, ivy, SQS, S3, EMR, Loggly, PagerDuty, Mixpanel, Kontagent, NginX, Tomcat, Hive, and Google App Engine. We contribute code back to the open source projects we use, and we've even started open sourcing our own (https://github.com/EA2D).
The Platform team is small and young -we're still building out the initial implementations of many services- so you would have a tremendous impact on our architecture and direction.
We're a tight-knit team with lots of whiteboards, so you'd need to be on-site. On the plus side, EA's campus is fantastic - we have a stellar gym, cafeteria, theater, shuttle service to Caltrain, soccer field, volleyball and basketball courts, tournament-quality foosball tables, and much more.
Drop me a line if you're interested, mikeb@ea2d.com

Ours is a small team of 3 in a company of about 150, on a small but involved ground-up project that's just starting to take on beta users. It's a web app that pulls together data from many sources and presents an easy-to-navigate graphical summary. We use mostly Python (2.7) in a Unix environment. On the back end, we munge a few TB of data using Python, Hadoop and Pig, and some in-house distributed Unix tools. The processed data goes into Solr/Lucene, is served up by CherryPy and Genshi, and presented by jQuery in IE7, IE8, Firefox 3.5+ and some COTS viz software. A lot of the job is extracting the juicy bits from various data sources -- e.g., personnel databases and news articles -- then normalizing, aggregating, and indexing it. The challenge is that it's way too much data for a single system, so we need to parallelize the process on dozens of systems. We also need to think about how the data is organized to keep search and retrieval fast. And of course you want an intuitive, powerful front end for all that functionality.
A bit about the work environment: we heart open source. We have nice dual-monitor workstations running RHEL 5 with root; you're free to set up your dev environment how you like (as long as it's secure). You can be as back-end or front-end as you like, or mix it up. We all try to do a bit of everything. We have proper sysadmins to help, but end up doing a lot of the server and network configuration ourselves; that way we get it right, plus we kinda like it. We take security seriously. Mercurial for version control; Jira for project management; just starting with Scrum for process. You get a real office with a real window, shared with one person. The job is a government contract, but in a fairly agile R&D environment (though a startup it ain't).
Eight-hour days with a half hour for lunch, whatever hours work for you as long as you're in between 10-3. Overtime is very rare; no comp time. There's a basic but serviceable gym and a good walking loop. It's South of the beltway on the Maryland side, a short commute with no traffic from Alexandria, Arlington, Suitland, or Southeast D.C. Unfortunately there is no public transportation that comes this way. Occasional local travel. Pay is about average for the area. Benefits and vacation are pretty good. There are opportunities to move to other projects within the company if you get bored with this one. And if this particular job ain't your cuppa but you like what you hear generally, drop us a resume anyway; we have several locations in the metro area and are always looking for good people.
