London, England. https://www.playfire.com/jobs

Small (7) startup in the gaming space looking for software engineers. Are you the one? You are, if you:

* Love agile development, working independently on your own challenges, and together in a team on the bigger vision

* Are completely fluent in a scripting language such as Python, Perl, PHP or Ruby and have experience with web frameworks and the MVC concept. We don't require fluency in our current technology stack - great programmers can pick up new technologies.

* Have used MySQL or PostgreSQL extensively and you know your way around Apache, nginx or other server. It's a bonus if you have good JavaScript skills (we use jQuery)

* Get excited by the idea of scaling web apps to millions of users

* Are the best developer in your peer group, and want to be at a place where you are constantly challenged and pushed to become better

* Get obsessed about the problem you're solving and don't stop until you've cracked it

* Have a thirst to learn new skills and technologies, and can pick things up easily

* Want to have fun building lots of new features and get stuff done

* Are full of positive energy, relish the thought of being part of a small, fast-moving team and enjoy brainstorming about new ideas

We're a Daily deals sites for Design Resources.

We've got about 20,000 users. Selling from eBooks to Photoshop resources and icons. We're looking for Freelance Designers to create some design resources for us.

Like UI Kits, icons, photoshop resources, themes, templates, etc. More of an opportunity than a job. When you have spare time you can create some resources for us and make some extra money.

Earning most of the revenue from the deal, the deals can make from hundreds to more than $1000 (of course we can never promise anything as it all depends on the size of the market and quality of the work).

You have complete creative freedom, work when ever you want and you have as much time as you want. No age or location restrictions as you work from where you want.

Boston, MA (Greater Boston Area) https://www.sparkred.com

Java/Jboss/Linux: We're a profitable enterprise hosting startup seeking a Java/J2EE/JBoss developer who knows their way around Linux to assist with everything from code development, to support ticket handling, to troubleshooting, performance tuning, and more. You can work from home, but need to be in the Boston area for occasional face-to-faces (and we may be getting office space near Burlington at some point). We pay well, good benefits, cool team, lots of flexibility.

Sales/Marketing/Intern: We're also looking for a paid co-op/intern to work (possibly part time) on our sales, marketing, and account management efforts. Learn the ins and outs of working at a fast paced tech startup, and learn first hand how to sell to and deal with Fortune 500 executives. Research into sales opportunities and competitors, authoring white-papers and PR releases, "happiness" management for existing customers, and more. We're really looking for someone with some education or big ideas on how to effectively sell and market our company. We're all tech-heads and need another perspective. This could turn into high paid full time work, if the co-op proves to be valuable/productive.

Contact me: devon@sparkred.com with questions or resumes

Thanks!
