Threespot - http://threespot.com

Threespot is a mid-sized digital communications agency that focuses on the do-gooding world: typically nonprofits, foundations, and government agencies. We're a tight-knit bunch of whip smart folks trying to do great things through our incredible array of clients, which includes: ACLU, Amnesty International, Brookings Institution, Conservation International, Humane Society, Knight Foundation, MacArthur Foundation, National Park Service, Peace Corps, Planned Parenthood, and Smithsonian Institution.

In the technology department we're hiring multiple developers for two positions:

Front-End Developer: http://www.threespot.com/about/jobs/developer/ Web Software Engineer/Developer: http://www.threespot.com/about/jobs/sw-engineer/

Though we're open to candidates with all sorts of backgrounds, I think it's fair to say that we'd prefer backend folks with experience in one or more MVC frameworks, especially Django and Rails.

We're also hiring marketing folks, art directors and designers, UX leads, project managers, and more: http://www.threespot.com/about/

London, UK Qubit group - http://www.qubitgroup.com/join-our-team

We're looking to double the size of our company over the next 12 months. We're hiring senior and graduate software engineers in the next quarter, plus a whole bunch of other roles. We're not looking for any skills in particular, just smart people.

Qubit Group is a 18 month-old company founded by 4 ex-Googlers. We're in the business of making company's websites perform better, by generating rule-based concrete advice.

We've a bunch of huge clients already, and are trying to keep up with growth! It's a busy time and you'll get thrown in the middle of bunch of AI work, doing cloud computing and presenting complex data to clients in a simple actionable manner.

It's a fun place to be (not just because we're in the middle of Soho), there's a bunch of perks for everyone and there's both strong leadership from above and freedom for everyone to do things the way they know best.

If you are interested, send an email to careers+yc@qubitgroup.com.

For UK'ers check-out the job board I run, lots of startups use it to promote their jobs: http://www.coderstack.co.uk/startup-jobs (Mostly full-time non-remote jobs)

As much as I'd like to mention my own/better solution, this isn't the venue for job boards to say "come to my site." We spam enough sites with our links as it is. "Ask HN: Who is Hiring" is for actual job posts. Plain and simple.

It all depends on whether it's a job board that hackers will find useful and not something like Monster.com. If it's sufficiently relevant and useful to thread readers, it should be posted. Don't be pedantic, don't make up rules.
