Boston, no remote work

Locately (early-stage startup, funded by Hacker Angels)

http://www.locately.com/

Our software analyzes location data from mobile phones to understand where people go. We then sell this research to large retailers (Target, Costco, ...), "out of home" advertisers (ie, billboards), and city planners and developers.

We're looking to add two engineers. We use some Java and lot of Python (with Scipy), though if you don't know these that's fine, we just care about hiring good hackers.

You get to work here: http://plixi.com/p/60698580

Quora is hiring in Palo Alto, CA.

Quora is a question and answer site focused on really high quality, authoritative content. The service has a lot of traction and is growing very quickly, especially recently. We are hiring software engineers and product designers.

http://www.quora.com/about/jobs

For software engineers, we are mostly looking for generalists--who will work on scaling the service as we grow, including work on our real time web framework LiveNode, building and improving rich web application itself, and building new tools and features.

Product designers design and implement the interactions and visuals for the site.

We are also planning on building out our mobile experience more, so anyone interested in iOS or Android should apply.

The company is well funded by Benchmark.

tl;dr: Mozilla is hiring, and we have many different kinds of positions open. Main offices are in Mountain View, Toronto, Auckland, Paris; remote work very much a possibility, esp for people with experience doing it. I know most about engineering, but the fullish list is off http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/careers Platform engineers: the native-code guts of Firefox, you could work on things ranging from network protocol…

That web developer position looks enticing.

Chicago (or remote) Matasano Security LEAD SOFTWARE DEVELOPER YOU BRING: experience in a key role shipping a web-based product, systems programming chops, comfort with performant network code.

Oh, and we give everyone unlimited free tech books: http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=1639193 People seem to think this is a big deal, even though I think it's one of the biggest no-brainer win-win benefits ever.

I usually am critical of tech "perks", mostly from the bad taste in my mouth that foosball tables and free junk food from the dot com era left...

But that, good sir, is probably one of the smartest tech perks I've ever seen. Kudos.

Earlier quoted context omitted.

Hey, I'm a dev in Tokyo, looking to move to Shanghai. I would have preferred to email you, but the email in your profile is quite difficult to parse. My email is in my profile ;-).

I'm pretty sure that "squiggly sign" refers to @. :)

Oh, hadn't realized that it wouldn't be obvious :-)

Hey, I'm a dev in Tokyo, looking to move to Shanghai. I would have preferred to email you, but the email in your profile is quite difficult to parse. My email is in my profile ;-).

Cool, I used to live in Kyoto before moving to Shanghai...

Your email is not in your profile (the email field is kept private, you need to add your email to your about section...)

Squiggly sign means @.. Just want to prevent spammers from harvesting my email...
