Earlier quoted context omitted.

Not everyone is specifying remote or not, though. :(

I guess you can assume not-remote if it doesn't say remote. If everyone who didn't allow remote were to specify "no remote" then it'd just mess with the folks who were searching for "remote", because it would also find "not-remote" and the folks searching for "remote" would get frustrated. Whoops, this post could be annoying for those searching for "remote", couldn't it? I'll stop saying "remote" now. Sorry for sayin…

Pune, India - we are looking for guys/girls who are smart and get things done. (Please forgive the double post, didn't expect to see two separate who's hiring threads.) 2 weeks ago I quit my job in NY to work on my new startup, Styloot (name still a work in progress). Our goal is to build a search engine for fashion. We have a nice office in Model Colony. Currently we are 10 people (CEO, CTO, adviser, web designer, 6…

Congrats on the new gig, and hope the (dramatic) move went well for you. You're a smart guy and I'm mildly jealous of anyone who gets to work with you. Good luck!

Thanks Tom. Though I should say, both to reply to your "a smart guy" crack and to further advertise the position, I'm actually the dumb guy in this group.

I've never heard of a Vietnam startup. Are there a bunch of you guys out there?

Not really. Ours is founded by an American who has lived here for 11 years and, having previously founded and sold companies in France and California. It's sort of an American company in Vietnam, more so than a Vietnamese startup :)

Location - Preferably San Fran, Tampa, Miami, Austin, Boston but other areas OK

Need - we need one Android and one iPhone programmer

Company - we're C Monster Solutions, developers of the mobile app called Ship Mate. The app has roughly 50,000 uses per day and can be found in the App Store's Top 20 Travel Apps with Zagat, Disney, Tripit, etc. Our business is in the vacation travel industry (specifically cruises). At times, employment may require coding from a hammock on the back of a cruise ship with rum.

Android Programmer Needed - Ship Mate for the Android has about 20% of the features of Ship Mate for the iPhone. We need someone to bring it up to par asap. Once we have those in place, we'll need to tie the app into the back end we're currently building.

iPhone Programmer Needed - we have some smaller projects as well as some huge, lofty goals for a prospective iPhone programmer, depending on the skill level.

Compensation - negotiable - we can structure it in a traditional manner or we can get creative if that's your flavor.

Ideal Candidate - bored with their current employment and wanting to be involved in something that's exciting and entrepreneurial and in a sweet industry.

We want to make it easy for people to satisfy their curiosity. Drop me a line if you do too (email's in my profile).

We have interesting technological problems (we use python, eventlet, mysql and redis), but you'll be sucked in by our great people and cool product.
