Ask HN: Freelancer? Seeking freelancers? (May 2011) http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=2503209
We need your programming talent, we're a fun startup environment where everyone's input matters, and we judge your ideas on their merits, not their rank.
What We Do: At Opzi, we're building real-time business collaboration software. Our first product aims to change the way people share knowledge within a team or company.
Founders & Funding: Euwyn (from Vancouver) was Cornell CS '04, JD from Cornell Law '07. Ambert was Stanford EE '06. Funded by Y Combinator, Ron Conway, First Round Capital, Paul Buchheit (creator of Gmail) and many others.
Tech Stack: Rails, Node, Backbone (lots of JS).
Who We're Looking For: We're mostly impressed by what you've made rather than the grades you earned in school. You should have a strong demonstrated interest in modern web development (i.e. have some projects and/or a Github account to show) as well as an ability to learn quickly and work independently. Ruby and Javascript experience would be great, but no sweat if you're more comfortable in C++ or Python.
How to Apply: Complete 1 or 2 of the programming challenges at the URL below, and send to euwyn@opzi.com, along with a quick email with a little bit about why you're interested.

We have openings for software engineers in Petaluma, Vancouver, and Dallas with options for remote work.
You’ll have the opportunity to work with Python, Django, Cassandra, RabbitMQ, Google Web Toolkit (GWT), HTML5, and WebGL on small team in a fast-paced environment.
We design/develop/scale an interactive mapping platform. Our early products were all about superimposing cell phone coverage for carriers on a world map for them to embed in their websites. Now we have a platform for in-browser comparative analysis of arbitrary spatial information. We currently load it up with information about the wireless, cable, and telecom industries.
I'm looking for talented engineers who can get down and dirty with optimization, configuration management, distributed systems, or architecture design.
Stuff you'll be fooling with: Solr, HDFS, MongoDB, PostgreSQL, Chef, EC2, Javascript, Ruby, and C. Knowledge of Pacemaker/Heartbeat, Chubby/ZooKeeper, AMQP, Flume/Scribe, BigTable/Dynamo inspired systems, or Scala is a plus.
We also have a position open for a junior developer if these are things you find interesting and you're willing to learn. That position would be more focused on Javascript and Rails work initially.
We're former SeedCamp and FBFund participants, currently profitable and working out of the Presidio with a great view of the Golden Gate Bridge.
You would work directly with me on the full stack, including server maintenance, deployment, ruby/rails development, javascript, and design. You don't have to be an expert in any of that, just be ready to learn.
Part-time remote work is ok, and starting remotely is an option if you're not in SF yet.
email me (kevin@) if interested, please include "HN Job Post" in the title.
