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 a…

To tack on more Netflix openings, drop me a line if you're a UI engineer interested in working in our TV platforms group. As has been discussed before, Netflix delivers UI to TVs, game consoles, blu ray players, and other devices via custom web applications. We're looking for more very strong JavaScript / HTML UI engineers with an eye for user experience. We have similar openings in our Mobile / Tablet group and work…

Would someone like myself, who is very strong with JavaScript but not a very good eye for design be a fit for this position?

Monetate - Conshohocken, PA (Philly suburb) - No remote, but we will help you relocate.

Monetate is a SAAS provider to internet marketers. We do real-time DOM modification on our clients’ sites to put the right experience in front of their users. We’re looking for engineers who want to do highly visible work on great brands and solve tough problems with great coworkers.

About us:

* Founded in 2008

* Funded by First Round and OpenView

* Respect - it's our core value. We have a great team and we work well together. Our vacation policy is the same as Netflix (we don't have one). Our technical teams have full authority over (and responsibility for) the problems they work on.

What we're looking for:

* Problem solvers who like to code - we take things apart, figure out how they work, then build software to solve problems

* People who like to ship - we're focused on building and shipping great products - if you like to see your work in production quickly you'll see it here

* Use the source - Google Closure to Python, Hadoop and Mahout to Solr and Lucene - we're open source across our stack

* People who like hard challenges - we have great problems across our products - data, UX, 3rd party JS, high volume / low latency APIs - we have no shortage of deep problems to work on

We're looking for people not positions. We have people who have joined the team with no background in our primary languages and people from non-traditional backgrounds. Check out our blog at http://engineering.monetate.com/ and see more about our open jobs at http://monetate.com/jobs/

San Francisco, CA. Full time. H1B okay.

With 50% of traffic now driven by social media, and referrer information increasingly useless with mobile clients and HTTPS, traditional web analytics are no longer working. awe.sm is building full-featured social media conversion tracking and analytics.

Right now and in the medium term, we're providing immediate value to our customers by giving them firm numbers on the ROI of their social media efforts, in terms of dollars, signups, pageviews or any other metric they pick. Our APIs allow app developers to easily integrate social features into their products and easily present the analyzed data back to their own customers, without having to build their own processing clusters and workflows.

Longer term, we want to know what's important on the Internet, and we believe that instrumenting social behaviour is the way to do that.

We're looking for back-end engineers who are interested in learning how to handle large volumes of data for aggregation, geo analysis, and graph analysis, in close to real time. Our stack is mostly PHP and Ruby right now (I know, I know) but we believe in picking the right tool for the job and are not afraid to use new tech.

We're also looking for front-end developers to continue to build out our GUI, which is a backbone JS app built on top of the same APIs our customers use.

http://totally.awe.sm/jobs?source=hackernews

We're 13 people right now. We have a cool new office with awesome views ( http://www.flickr.com/photos/seldo/6326815086/in/photostream ) in the heart of the Mission. We have catered lunches, and full health, vision and dental coverage. We use an IRC server for team communication and are agile in the sense that we move quickly and react fast, not in the sense of having attended an overpriced training course.
