SpaceX, Los Angeles. With the Obama administration's recent budget recommendations for NASA (cutting the Constellation program), we're continuing our expansion. Mad C++ & Linux skillz? Want to write code that lives on the International Space Station or controls our vehicle while it visits? Think humanity should colonize Mars? Drop us a line, we're hiring. Visit spacex.com/careers for more info.

Is this a US only job? Seeing as you would be writing code that runs on a vehicle on Mars, maybe you could accept code from a different part of the Earth? ;-)

This is quite possibly the first job posting I've ever seen that has made me want to write C++.

I wonder if PG should implement a feature for a regularly scheduled article for this question. The alternative is for one of the expanding membership of this site to randomly decide there hasn't been a discussion of this topic "in some time" and post this and get some quick points (not saying that this is happening here, now, but I can see the potential for abuse)

We're hiring Frontend and Backend engineers with varying range of experience from fresh-grads to experienced. We're a LAMP shop (P is for PHP). We're doing a lot of interesting technical projects that are bridging the print (physical) and social gap. Send your resumes to BeAStar@tinyprints.com and put [HN] in your subject line.

yeah me too. And I am not even looking for a job! But it is probably US only. And I have no intention of traveling. Going through the degrading visa app process is not worth it.

I sorta like this idea. Job boards are nice, but a HN "Job Fair" post sounds better.

Account creation dates are just that, when the account was created. Personally, I was reading the site for a while before I ever created an account.

Yeah, unfortunately. The job requires either US citizenship or permanent residency. If you're interested in the reasons, google ITAR.
