London, UK - Web Developer (Meteor/JavaScript)

Wigwamm

http://recruitment.wigwamm.com/front-end

We are a small team building a real time auction for rental property.

Run democratically, you get to do what you want. We believe that if you hire intelligent people, the worst thing you can do is tell then tell them what to do.

Our mission is to help people. So you won't be working on a tweak of anything that is already in existence. We exist to innovate.

For example, every real estate start-up has put effort into map UIs, forms and listings. We'll open up our unique and high quality data set for them to exploit their UI (and build/innovate where they are strong). We do believe that only by collaborating will the toughest problems be solved.

There is reason I've gone into so much detail about our values: everything else is arbitrary. I'm sure you can problem solve. I'm certain your JavaScript is clean and beautiful. But if our incentives aren't aligned with yours, we shouldn't be working together.

If you want to help people, focus on innovating and build all day long, say hi: http://twitter.com/WigwammHQ

San Francisco, CA and Cambridge, MA - Locu is hiring Frontend Engineers, Backend Engineers and Visual Designers - Full-time; H-1B OK

Locu is developing technologies to change local search ($35bn advertising market by 2014) through a number of initiatives that help local businesses better connect with their consumers. As part of this vision, we created one of the world's largest semantically-annotated repositories of real-time small-business data, which is now distributed and viewable on sites like OpenTable, Citysearch and TripAdvisor (and more). We recently launched Locu.com, our local business facing product, that combines great tech and beautiful design to help local businesses better manage their online presence.

Our beautiful offices are in downtown San Francisco, CA (Union Square) and Cambridge, MA (Kendall Square). Check out photos and learn more about our other perks: http://locu.com/about/jobs/

Frontend Engineering

If you are passionate about building products that will touch millions of merchants and hundreds of millions of consumers through the applications powered by our local data APIs, Locu is the right place for you. [JQuery, Less, Django, etc.]

Backend engineering

We started Locu out of MIT to solve real-world problems by leveraging the latest research in computer science. If you are looking to solve some of the most challenging problems in machine learning, NLP and human computation, you'll feel right at home. [Python, Django, Node.js, Postgres, Redis, AWS, etc.]

Design

We're looking for visual designers who are excited to redefine what the future of local business data looks like across web and print, and to create tools that put modern web technology in the hands of merchants.

Interested? Drop us a line at jobs@locu.com. Please include "[HN]" in the subject of your letter. Learn more about us (now with photos!) at: http://locu.com/about/jobs/

WiFast (http://www.wifast.com) Mountain View, CA

We're a well funded 14 month old startup just starting to poke our heads out of stealth mode. We're reimagining what internet access looks like in the modern world. We've proven and prototyped a lot of the necessary components. They work.

We are looking for true generalists. Yes, some of our work is in Python and Django, but we also have to work with embedded device C code, internal APIs for client applications, networking and firewall configuration and at times even finding and working around the occasional kernel panic. Silly kernel, everything is going to be OK. You are;

* A Polyglot Programmer. Contribute all up and down the stack, from JavaScript and Python to C and shell scripting, from traditional MVC web development down to TCP/IP, DNS and iptables.

* Autodidactic. Learning is fun. Prepare to do a lot of it. We have way more components than team members and we intend to keep it that way.

* Autonomous. Be comfortable working with minimal oversight. We don’t have any PMs and we don’t plan to hire any for quite some time. Downside: you don’t get a spec. Upside: you don’t get a spec.

* Product-focused. Understand and appreciate the human-facing side of the business. You are comfortable thinking through what needs to be prioritized next and how that affects our customers.

* Attentive to Detail. You know when to git merge and when to git rebase, and it makes a difference (nobody likes a messy commit history). Your code feels obvious in retrospect. You take pride in your work.

* Test-Friendly. The best way to make sure we're creating value for our users is to make sure our changes don't break things.

More info on the website, if you're interested you can apply on the site or you can contact me directly for more information.
