Chatham Financial (Kennett Square, PA) - Full time http://www.chathamfinancial.com

We've got an awesome developer culture going inside of this financial company (~150 tech people). You can email our HR rep[1], or me[2] with your resume and a few words of what you're looking for.

If you're interested in .Net development using the latest technologies, and pushing our architecture forward, then this is probably a place you want to work. We do use other techs where it's appropriate (or for internal or fun projects), such as last week when I worked on a Golang webapp. We have quarterly Hack Weeks, which gives us a chance to explore self-driven projects that make sense for the business.

Below are the open positions, but if you're a passionate and qualified guy/gal, don't hesitate to see where you might fit into our team!

* Web developer - You get to take the process from the data and service design all the way to the implementation of the UI, but you'll need to be well versed in some aspect of web development (MVC/JS/CSS/etc).

* Models developer - Same thing as the web developer, but you'll need a passion for services, and the technologies that it entails.

* Test automation developer - We have been pushing the limits of HP's BPT software suite for years now, so we have been building our own services testing framework (one of the goals of which is to open source it). The test team supports all the development we do, at approximately a 2devs:1tester ratio.

* DBA - Our Data Team is lean and the individuals on the team wear many hats. Our daily responsibilities include everything from TSQL data access performance optimization, to automating SQL Server and Windows with PowerShell, to working closely with software developers and business leads to create High-quality data solutions.

Rinse ( http://www.rinse.com ) - San Francisco, CA

Rinse is a very early-stage startup (we are only 3 people currently) looking to bring technology to the dry-cleaning industry. The industry is ripe for innovation! We're building mobile apps, tackling scheduling and dispatch problems, and scaling a service at over 10% week-on-week growth.

I know 'app for laundry' is a tech cliché right now, but we're definitely encountering real demand. The problem is real, and we're solving it.

The team is very strong, with an HBS grad who grew up in a dry-cleaning family heading operations, and a Stanford GSB grad with direct consumer startup experience heading customer acquisition. I'm Stanford CS/EE, have built a few teams at various startups, and am just starting to build the technology and team to support this (very viable) business.

The tech stack is Heroku / Python / Django / Phonegap / JQuery / Backbone / Twilio currently, but obviously there is plenty of opportunity to influence technology decisions early on, and plenty of opportunity to learn new technologies as well. We expect the next couple of hires to own entire new efforts, and have their hands in wide-ranging parts of our entire business.

We're looking for a Web Developer or Front-end Developer to develop interfaces for our customers, tools for our personnel, and visualizations for our managements. Ideally, this person would also have an active role in the design process as well, either leading design or working with our contract designer.

We're also looking for a 'Special Ops Manager' - a 'Swiss-Army Knife' hustler who wants to join a startup on the ground-floor. This person will use the tools we're developing in-house, and be involved in all facets of the business, including operations, marketing, social media, and any other aspect of the business that requires attention on any given day. See job description at https://www.dropbox.com/s/tuhisiywgf7md6u/Rinse%20-%20Specia...

Finally, if anyone in San Francisco is looking to make a few extra dollars part-time, Rinse is hiring part-time Associates to help us deliver clothes. We pay $25 per hour for a handful of hours per week. Perhaps it would be a way for some of you bootstrapping startups to earn a little extra cash? To apply to the Driver / Associate position, fill out this web form: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1kWZYu1kg1r8kxdDC9ObKdgQP_1N...

Thank you! Feel free to contact me at sam@rinse.com with questions, comments, or applications.

Wingspan Technology - Philadelphia suburbs (Whitpain/Blue Bell) - Full Time - DevOps

Email gsieling@wingpan.com or go to http://www.wingspan.com/careers/

Wingspan Technology has been providing industry-leading technology solutions since 1996. Our latest exciting product is a cloud-based document management system for some of the world’s largest pharmaceutical companies. We are looking for a Senior Operations Engineer to assist in running this system. Wingspan is a small, dynamic company (no middle management here), but stable enough to be going strong for over 17 years. Because of our small size, you’ll have plenty of autonomy to affect change at a company level, as well as the accountability that goes along with it.

As a Senior Operations Engineer, you would be a principal contributor in helping maintain and expand our privately hosted cloud solution. This would include participation in architecture design, software deployment, and system configuration, all while ensuring our clients’ data stays safe, secure and available.

Some of the things that we’re really into are: * 99.999% uptime in our validated environments * Replacing our Python, Bash and Cron system automation with Puppet * Continuous integration using Atlassian products * Proactive monitoring and alerting with Zabbix, Splunk and Pingdom * Load/performance testing and tuning PostgreSQL and Tomcat * Backup and recovery - and testing those bad boys!

The ideal candidate would also have at least five years of experience with: * Network administration * Linux administration (we’re a CentOS shop)

The role also requires: * Strong leadership and mentoring skills * Strong oral and written communication skills * Ability to periodically be on-call
