Scribd (YC '06), San Francisco - H1B, FULL-TIME, and INTERN are all welcome

Scribd (social publishing & eBooks, top 100 website, 35 people) is hiring talented hackers and other technical people for a broad range of technologies.

We've hired FIVE full-time people and TWO summer interns from these "Who is Hiring" threads, including one just last month ... it really works!!

We're looking for people who want to work with:

* Ruby on Rails (we're the #2 largest rails site, after Twitter)

* Javascript (we recently switched to Coffeescript and are loving it)

* iOS

* Machine Learning / data mining / recommendations

* Back-end problems: scalability, web crawling, big data, analytics

* DevOps and web infrastructure

That said, we care way more about your personality and general hacking skills then what languages you've used so far, so if you haven't used these but want to break into mobile or web development, this could be a good opportunity for you. We've hired people from these threads with everywhere from 0 to 10 years of experience. We're profitable, very well funded and have a really fun office environment (go-karts + a rock climbing wall!). We've got flexible hours, a very engineer-driven company culture, and a really terrific team.

Scribd alumni have gone on to found 4 other YCombinator companies, more than from any other startup. We think this says something about the kind of people that we like to hire.

We are always looking for international people interested in moving to the US and can help you secure a visa.

Stockholm, Sweden. Unfortunately we're not able to provide much in the way of relocation assistance :(

Looking for a Javascript developer with some Haskell understanding and an interest in doing growth related work with me at a ~10 people startup.

You'll be helping me with Scrive's growth, which involves doing some A/B testing, some Haskell, some support and a lot of JS. You don't need to know Swedish.

In return you'll be working at Sveavägen in a sweet office with very nice people. You can work a day or so a week from home, and we practice "flextid". You'll also get to disrupt some seriously wasteful practices related to printing papers and scanning signatures. And you'll interact with Poland and Swedens finest Haskell programmers.

Also Haskell. Haskell Haskell Haskell.

I'm available at johan at scrive dot com.

Vancouver, BC, Canada - UX designer and server engineer (contract and full time)

Hey everyone, first post on HN!

We're RocketChicken Interactive, a start-up mobile game company in Vancouver, BC (well, technically our office is just across the road in Burnaby...) and we're working at lightspeed to develop a prototype for a follow up to CodeRunner, an alternate reality iOS game that we built in our spare time and released late in 2011. It got us noticed and got us some funding, so now the chips are down and we have to prove we can do it again!

Our biggest need in the short term is a UX designer with strong graphic design skills to help us shape the look and feel of CodeRunner:2. You will have an amazing amount of influence over the visual style and user experience. We really need someone who can take a project from vision to reality in a short amount of time, and who has a proven track record of working closely with a team in a highly collaborative environment. In the early stages we will need someone who can be on site most of the time. This role will start as a contract with the potential to work into a full-time position. You can find the original job posting here:

http://www.rocketchicken.com/2013/05/23/mobile-game-ui-desig...

In the more medium term, we need to find a server engineer who has a lot of experience with web services and scalable database systems. Ideally you'll be well-versed in both SQL and NoSQL solutions and can help us assess our requirements to identify the best solution. This game is going to rely heavily on a pretty sophisticated server back-end, so you'll be right in the middle of building what we think is going to be the coolest mobile game ever. ;) This is a full-time position:

And if you're not interested in these positions, but want to see what CodeRunner is all about, check out the web site here:

Thanks!

Earlier quoted context omitted.

Since you're open to remote employment, I guess that "break in" period could be done with a tourist visa ;) [and yes - you can pay after the person leaves and/or to the foreign bank account...]

No, you need a National Insurance Number to work, you need to have permission to work in the UK to be paid.

Is it generally hard to issue permission in UK, or this means that some particular company is not capable of doing it?
