San Francisco, CA or remote fulltime (near pacific time)

CircleCI: designers, frontend, backendend engineers.

At CircleCI (https://circleci.com), we're building Heroku for Continuous Integration. We have traction and revenue. Our customers love us, because we move quickly and provide amazing support. All employees talk to customers and are on support rotation.

We're written in Clojure. We eat our own dogfood, DevOps, A/B test, do Continuous Deployment and Customer Development.

The frontend is a fat javascript client, using HamlCoffee, Less and Knockout.

Backend engineers should know Clojure or another 'weird' language (Haskell, Scala, Scheme, etc), and Linux Devops (C compilation model, make, packaging).

We're looking for: designers that can write HTML & CSS, Frontend Engineers and Backend Engineers.

We're still a small team (we just hired employee #1 off a HN who's hiring thread), so you'll have a large impact on company culture. We're highly influenced by Valve's Employee handbook.

Contact us at jobs@circleci.com. Include samples of awesome stuff you've done.

London UK: Junior test automation engineer. Permanent, full-time, on-site.

At YouView we are automating the testing of our product (a set-top box) using stb-tester[1], a tool that we developed and open-sourced which captures video from the set-top box and analyses it in real time.

These are early days for the project, so you can have a large impact on its direction and success. One week you might be writing a python module to control a network-controllable power supply; another week it might be a script to generate comprehensive test coverage of a menu tree. There will be tedious work too, but we want the kind of person who hates tedious work so much that they automate it away.

Unix shell scripting and administration experience is highly desirable. The test scripts themselves are written in python.

When you say paid internships, do you mean for next summer? Your company sounds wonderfully exciting, but over here the Winter Semester just started and I have yet to pin down whether I'll be expected to stay around for summer here at grad school or what.

London: Python and Erlang Engineers, FT, not remote

Smarkets (https://smarkets.com)

Smarkets is a real-time online trading platform with an Erlang backend and Python frontend. Smarkets is disrupting the global betting industry by offering a modern betting exchange platform with significantly lower transaction fees than the competition. We have traded over £150 million of bets since launching in February 2010.

The part of our stack which runs behind the website is one of the few that uses Erlang as a primary language, and is supported by other well-known Erlang projects such as RabbitMQ and CouchDB.

The non-Erlang pieces of our stack are mostly written in Python, and relies heavily on asynchronous programming techniques and REST. We use the following technologies: VirtualBox, Vagrant, Flask, gunicorn, PostgreSQL, Ganglia, Icinga, Graphite, Cacti, Jenkins, Trac, Git and many other open source packages.

We are well-funded and growing quickly so are looking for Python and Erlang engineers to join our team. If you are looking for a flexible, agile team to work with; want to work somewhere free of big corporate politics; would like a cool project to work on; we’d love to hear from you! More details about the role and what we're looking for can be found on our blog: http://blog.smarkets.com/2012/07/31/smarkets-seeking-python-...
