Scribd (YC '06), San Francisco - VISA, FULL-TIME, and INTERN are all welcome

Scribd ("Netflix for eBooks", top 100 website, 50 people) is hiring talented hackers of all kinds to help us build the library of the 21st century.

We've hired EIGHT full-time people and TONS of interns from these "Who is Hiring" threads ... it really works!

We're looking for people who want to work with:

* Ruby on Rails (we're the #2 largest rails site, after Twitter)

* Javascript (well, we use Coffeescript)

* iOS OR Android (we're a top 10 eBook app with more reviews than Wikipedia, with a small mobile team)

* Data science / data analysis (using big data tools like hive to analyze an amazing proprietary dataset)

* Machine Learning / data mining / recommendations - think Netflix prize, but for books!

* Product manager and design (UI or UX) roles too

* Internships: junior standing or above for all areas of engineering. We hire several interns every summer and year-round.

That said, we care way more about your personality and general hacking skills then what languages you've used so far, so if you haven't used these but want to break into mobile or web development, this could be a good opportunity for you. We've hired people from these threads with everywhere from 0 to 10 years of experience.

We're profitable, very well funded and have a really fun office environment (go-karts + a rock climbing wall!) in the center of the startup world in San Francisco. Scribd alumni have gone on to found 4 other YCombinator companies, more than from any other startup. We think this says something about the kind of people that we like to hire, and we love hiring people with entrepreneur and startup ambitions. We are also always looking for international people interested in moving to the US and can help you secure a visa.

You can read more about our "Netflix for Books" service here http://wrd.cm/1dJquzz or check out our tech blog at http://coding.scribd.com. Last month we launched the first "Netflix for Comics" - really exciting stuff! More here: http://wrd.cm/1MbaBA6

More info is at http://www.scribd.com/jobs, but as a HN user, feel free to apply directly by emailing me at jared at scribd.com. I work on the engineering team.

## The Department of Better Technology - http://www.dobt.co/ - REMOTE

Our one-sentence tagline: We are dedicated to making great software that helps governments and non-profits better serve their communities.

If you've ready some of the recent posts about US Digital Service or 18F, we're doing similar stuff, but from the outside-in, with mostly SaaS products. (Our flagship product, Screendoor: http://www.dobt.co/screendoor)

We're bootstrapped, profitable, and we'd love to find folks who are passionate about this kind of work. Stack is Rails / Postgres / JS -- nothing too fancy, but we're serious about the quality of our code. We're big on open-source, too: github.com/dobtco/

If you're interested in hearing more, email me at adam (at) dobt (dot) co

Voxy - Engineers and VP Eng, Manhattan, NY

Voxy is an adaptive learning platform focused on teaching English as a second language. We've just entered a growth phase as our product takes off in Brazil and Mexico.

We have a small tech team that needs to grow rapidly, and whoever we hire next can have a real impact on our engineering culture.

We pair every day, practice real Agile and have a very respect driven, peer based culture. Our team believes in real engineering, not programming.

Stack wise we use Python/Django, Backbone, PostrgesSQL and MongoDB and have native iOS and Adroid apps.

We have 4 senior engineering and a VP Eng position open at the moment. The VP Eng position requires real experience building and running top notch engineering teams and extensive experience with Python/Django.

sendwithus (YC W14, sendwithus.com) is hiring two full-time engineers.

At our core, Sendwithus is a simple and highly scalable REST API to manage and send templated emails in real-time. Our API powers millions of emails each day.

We believe in product experience above all else and use continuous customer feedback to drive all product development. Our customers are hackers, marketers, startups, and enterprises alike – and we like it that way.

We're a close-knit and passionate team of 10, with offices in San Francisco and Victoria.

------------------------------------------

Lead Engineer, Frontend - competitive salary, equity options

We're looking for an experienced frontend web developer to help architect and lead our customer facing applications.

You'll be responsible for architecture and technical design of all user facing applications, including our primary UI (the sendwithus dashboard), landing pages, and other public resources.

This is not a content or design role; this is a high-impact, high-ownership technical opportunity. You'll be leading our frontend team and working closely with our product team to ensure everything runs smooth and looks great.

------------------------------------------

Engineer #6 (Full-stack, Python/Django) - competitive salary, equity options

You'll be working with our engineering team to implement new API features, and keep things running smoothly.

We deal with very large amounts of data every day, and our systems are constantly evolving as we solve new and more challenging problems.

------------------------------------------

Email jobs@sendwithus.com to chat about either role.

Senior Software Engineer | Austin, TX | OwnLocal (YC W2010) TL;DR: Full-time, non-remote only. Contact jason@ownlocal.com. RoR, Go, ElasticSearch but we think you can learn these things on the job if you're competent. We treat employees like humans. $90k and up depending on experience. We're a Ruby on Rails shop who has recently consolidated a bunch of backend tech into Go and ElasticSearch. We would love a few engin…

Please don't say "no rem-ote", "non-rem-ote", or anything of that ilk. It's awfully annoying to those searching the page for rem-ote jobs. Note to everyone else, if it isn't rem-ote, don't mention the word. Cheers.

*Edited to add dashes into the key word I knew someone would comment on that but I've been too busy to come back and edit!

P.S. this wasn't personal attack on Jason (jnovek).
