Amsterdam, The Netherlands. H1B[1]

Booking.com is always on the lookout for good developers, DBA's and sysadmins on-site in the center of Amsterdam. I'm a developer there currently working on search and relocated over there about a year and a half ago, and have been very happy with it.

We have people from all over the world relocating to work with us and are very well set up to handle relocation and visa issues, most of the people working in IT are expats so we've got a lot of experience with bringing people in.

It's a rapidly growing company that represents the biggest chunk of the Priceline (PCLN) group of companies where problems that look relatively mundane on paper become much more interesting due to the scale and growth levels we're operating at.

We use Perl for almost everything with a MySQL backend and Git for development. We get our changes out really fast, it's rare for your code not to be on our live systems within hours of you pushing it.

We're also very open to open sourcing code that doesn't contain any business logic, I've personally been involved in open sourcing a few of our internal tools, including https://github.com/git-deploy and a few CPAN modules.

We have a relatively flat hierarchy with minimum levels of bureaucracy since we're very data driven and have a clear goal: helping our customers. Everything we do is aimed at solving problems for our customers, if it doesn't help our customers we're not interested in doing it.

You don't have to know Perl in advance to be a developer there. We've hired people who've done C, Java etc. before. The sort of people we'd like to hire are good technically, excellent at communication, and can acquire a good sense of how they fit into the big picture.

I'd be happy to answer any questions at avarab@gmail.com and/or forward your resume, I've posted in a similar thread here a couple of times before and have already helped get one person hired, many others have had or are having interviews, and I've fielded a bunch of questions from would-be applicants. http://booking.com/jobs also has some good information.

1. Well, not H1B, but we'll take care of the Dutch equivalent.

Industry Dive - Developer Intern & Editorial Intern

Washington, DC (just off Dupont Circle)

Industry Dive builds mobile apps and websites that help business executives excel at their jobs. We're a young company with experienced founders and a bit of seed money. We are hard at work building out our publishing platform and creating apps for each industry vertical. Pull up constructiondive.com or utilitydive.com on your phone to get a rough idea of where we're headed. (I'll let you in on a little secret: B2B isn't as sexy as working on the next Instagram of Spotify, but there's a lot of money there and the B2B publishing industry is ripe for disruption.)

We've got a variety of projects that would be a good fit for a developer intern interested in web design, mobile apps, and/or stable and scalable architecture. Our primary stack is Python/Django (with a little bit of PHP), but being smart and eager to learn is more important than any prior specific technical skills.

We're also looking for editorial interns interested in aggregating content and writing features & news summaries.

Email eli-at-industrydive.com for details.
