Padova, Italy: the company I'm consulting for needs a front-end/UX guy. The ideal person is someone who lives in the world of Javascript, and knows JQuery, as well as something like Backbone.js, keeps abreast of the latest developments in HTML5/CSS, and also has a good eye for design. Bonus points for knowing your way around a Linux server, and having some Rails knowledge.

The company is http://www.centervue.com/ and it's a pretty cool outfit. They make devices that take pictures of your retina, amongst other things. The team I work with are great guys, and smart hackers. However, we don't have a lot of UX sense, and we could also use some more front-end power on the team, which is where you come in. Email davidw@dedasys.com if you're interested.

LaterPay - Munich, Germany - remote and relocation help possible

Django Developer, Python Developer

LaterPay is a startup looking to change the way we pay for content online. The idea is micropayments, but the twist is that you pay after you accumulate €5, rather than paying into a 'wallet' up front.

We have a couple of positions open for python developers, and as we are still very small, those positions have a lot of scope for responsibility and choosing your own focus. We have a lot of Django work, so there's also a possibility to join as a Django specialist, especially if you also grok HTML/CSS/JavaScript. Other technologies we use include Tornado, Cassandra, Redis, and our code lives on github. Experience with these is a bonus but not necessary!

If you are interested, drop us an email with a resume and some code to look at - jobs@laterpay.net

Notting Hill, London, England.

Our web application is at the heart of our busy e-commerce business; every day it serves millions of product images and handles thousands of purchases - but we can and do update the live site with new code anytime we want without missing a beat. Our systems are written on the LAMP stack and we are migrating to Symfony 2 as our MVC framework. Developers choose the tools that work best for them - for instance, we have a mix of Linux, Windows, and Mac workstations in the team. We are adopting and adapting agile development techniques such as test-driven development, pair programming, and continuous integration. We hold regular retrospectives to improve our working environment and lightning talks to share cool ideas whether work-related or not. We expect developers to be generalising specialists, ready at the drop of a hat to refine an algorithm, write a tricky integration test, tune a SQL query, or discuss feature nuances with a product manager. Our team is growing fast and we'd like to hear (at careers@secretsales.com) from any of you who'd like to join us; we're hiring for all technical roles.

Established in London in July 2007, Secretsales.com is one of the UK's leading private shopping clubs, offering limited-time online sales with current name-brand goods at deep discounts. Brands include fashion, beauty, homeware, and lifestyle categories, many familiar from the high street. The company has about 80 employees and a substantial annual turnover. The firm is growing quickly after a recent investment round.
