Chicago IL (preferred) or Remote - http://www.GroupTweet.com

Just relaunched GroupTweet v2.0. Need some more PHP(cakephp) talent to help us move onto v3.0.

Competitive pay and equity stakes are available for self-starters that demonstrate strong performance. We are a small team, so plenty of opportunities to get in early and shape the future of GroupTweet.

We think Twitter can be the foundation for a great group communication platform for all sorts of different verticals. Think something like Yammer, however entirely integrated within the Twitter ecosystem.

We have millions of users worldwide. Check us out!

Inquiries: jobs@GroupTweet.com

Good ol' Europe is hiring too! We are in Groningen, Netherlands. We are Paylogic and we sell event tickets in high traffic peaks. We have our own Python app and a growing team of developers.

Here's what the company says:

Paylogic is an extensive Internet application that has to meet the highest standards regarding scalability, availability and security. We always have room for skilled and passionate software developers that want to work with cutting edge Internet technologies in a highly demanding environment and with some of the best Python developers around. Sharing knowledge and having fun are important qualifications of the Paylogic culture!

And here's what I, as an Architect and former developer there, say:

In the dev team we are driven, nonconformist and imaginative. You don't need to be an expert in Python/Django/SQLAlchemy, but the more you know the better.

It's a very nice place to work. Work is interesting, and if you like challenges, you won't be bored. There is no excessive pressure and extra hours are something rare.

Santa Monica, CA (Los Angeles area) also possibly SF Bay area or other cities, but most jobs are in Santa Monica.

TRUECar - Put simply, TrueCar shows consumers how much people actually paid for a particular new car in their area, then guide them to dealers we've certified. We bring transparency to auto pricing and so far we are getting a solid piece of a huge market.

* JAVA - We are looking for talented Java developers and architects to design and build the technology used to power our production websites, APIs, widgets, and internal tools. This is a chance for you to join a rapidly growing company and build something that's going to to scale to support millions of users/visitors and provide them with all kinds of data.

* We're also looking for front-end engineers, QA engineers and even Python/Django folks like me.

My story - moved from Atlanta all the way out to Santa Monica after stopping by the TrueCar booth at PyCon 2011. I started here two months ago and have absolutely loved it. I'm working with a great team that knows how to develop software and for management who seems to "get it" with regards to software developers.

We're all in open workspaces that are just blocks from the beach. My building has a view of the ocean (http://picplz.com/user/dabent/pic/tpc4v/). TrueCar has great benefits, including company equity, 100% paid family medical, dental, vision, and a healthy 401k. They also offer gym membership reimbursement ($50 a month), 12 holidays, career training, 3 weeks PTO and have a kitchen stocked with fruit, snacks and such. I've honestly never had a job this good. We're also making money and recently got some really solid investment (http://techcrunch.com/2011/09/07/car-price-comparison-compan...).

If you're interested, send me your resume. My email is in my profile.

Palo Alto, CA

Telepresence Robotics

http://suitabletech.com

Suitable Technologies is a startup working to create an innovative new product for something called "remote presence." (Another common term is "robotic telepresence.")

Our first product, in development now, is similar to video chat on a computer you can drive around. Unlike videoconferencing, you’re not stuck to a wall or desk. It becomes your physical presence, anywhere in the world, with the freedom to move and interact with people as if you were there. Our technology has already been seen by millions of people, and we think the potential impact is substantial.

We're looking for great engineers and designers. We need help in C++, multimedia, test and verification, web frontend and backend, UI/UX design, electrical, networking, and more. We think this could be a unique opportunity for someone with experience in web or mobile to work on something a little different.

We have funding, offer competitive compensation and benefits, and provide perks such as food and ping pong.

Candidates must be authorized to work in the U.S.

More information is available on our site: http://suitabletech.com
