London, UK. Full time Software craftsman required. Expertise in JavaScript and web development essential. Could you be employee #1? We're looking for a brilliant developer to join two busy co-founders to help take the product and company to the next level. == About you == You're passionate about producing beautiful, elegant code. You want to work in a company where quality counts, not just out of professional pride,…

I met Ben some time ago for some contract work. I didn't take up the work because of other commitments, but he came across as very professional and fun to work with. The platform he showed me they've built is pretty impressive and solves some important problems for businesses.

This is a great opportunity for any JS devs in London.

New York, NY. Fulltime.

Lore re-imagined what a class should look like online. We give instructors and students amazingly designed tools to manage their courses – calendaring, file management – and we make it unbelievably easy to interact with one another.

Lore is looking for a super-sharp, ambitious engineer who’s able to work across the stack. We’re a passionate team building the world’s largest learning community. You’re a badass coder who loves understanding the whole stack, and jumps on anything – from simple CSS to API performance. Together we will make education more relevant, engaging, and accessible.

Everyone at Lore is an artist – from customer service to engineering to user interface design. Changing the way people learn is no small task. To make it happen we need the most creative, dedicated, and detail-minded people on the planet.

Lore is built primarily in Python (using Flask) and CoffeeScript. Along the way, we also use MySQL, Redis, node.js, SASS and Compass.

Building the best experience for learning opens up a number of interesting technical challenges — to make it immersive, you want see interactions as they happens, and not later.

As a note, we're also hiring growth product hackers and JavaScript engineers.

If you're interested, shoot us an email at tech-jobs@lore.com, with information about yourself, why you're interested, and links to any work/code you can show off.

You can also find more about us and our open positions on our jobs page (http://lore.com/jobs/),

Do you like packets?

Extreme Networks is hiring experienced network engineers in Utrecht, The Netherlands. We're looking for people that have experience troubleshooting internetworking issues with any vendor(Cisco, Juniper, etc). UNIX/Linux experience is also welcome. We're not all that particular on skillset we just want to hire smart, motivated technology generalists.

We are a networking equipment manufacturer that makes really fast and really dense ethernet switches. We're not a startup, but we're also not a large company. So individual contributors can still have an impact.

Our primary product is our custom OS based on Linux that runs on our entire product line. Your job would primarily be as a customer facing test engineer reproducing and understanding bugs in this OS and associated hardware. You would work mostly in a lab with packet generators and switches/routers where you would simulate different network conditions and try to make things break.

Message me if you're interested.

Los Gatos, CA, Netflix

We have a ton of jobs open, but I'm particularly looking for Site Reliability Engineers. After yesterday's Amazon outage, you can see we still have some work to do.

Looking for someone who can code who also has experience driving unix. At the interview we ask you to code on the whiteboard and also tell us how to troubleshoot Linux.

Netflix is an awesome place to work with lots of smart people and top of market pay (and free movies!).
