This looks like it's copy-pasted right out of the HR system.

You're saying the same thing over and over again, and you're using terms like "code ninjas" that tend to be anathema to the HN crowd. You'll probably do better writing something up specifically for this post.

Hipmunk

San Francisco, CA - close to Caltrain

Experienced iOS, frontend specialists, and fullstack web. We're always open to good backend, Android, and DevOps engineers as well.

http://www.hipmunk.com/jobs

We're a high-standards group with a lot of pride in our products, code, and people. We understand consumer scale and data (Reddit co-founder & engineers) and aspire to build products that customers love. We've had success due to this, consistently getting 4-5 star reviews on app/play stores and net promoter scores at or above the best in the tech industry.

We're friends first and enable you to do your best work. Processes are light and trust is high. At 26 engineers we're not so big where you can't know everyone well and have an impact, but not so small where it's chaos and you don't have anyone to learn from. We value learning and growth (and not having bored people) and invest regular time in doing so. For example, every other Friday is open time for you to do stuff that helps you be a better engineer.

We're looking for folks that love all of the above and can help us raise our standards. You can email us at jobs-2014@hipmunk.com if you're interested!

StrataCloud - Atlanta, GA - Full-time, Local only.

Sales Engineers, Support Engineers, Content Marketing Manager, Developers.

tl;dr - http://www.stratacloud.com/careers/ - Doesn't actually list dev positions bc we're more desperate to fill other roles, but for HN, we're always hiring developers.

We're a team of ~20 working fast to bring a new product to market for Data Center Management. We have an existing product that brings in revenue and still has some legs, but our main focus is on a new platform that exists as a virtual appliance (Linux VM) and is composed of (mostly) Erlang and JavaScript... with some Java and Python thrown in there. We sell to the Enterprise (banks, hosting providers, anybody with lots of VMs) and have strong leadership with experience from security, Intelligence orgs, HP, and others; but we still feel like a small company and are a good place for anyone looking to do difficult work on big problems in an environment where results are the only thing that matters.

Funded, profitable, and moving quickly; this is the best job I've ever had, and we have a very exciting roadmap ahead of us. If you like independence, Linux, Virtualization, and working with smart people, let us know.

All the usuals, casual dress, beer Fridays, flexible hours, etc... we're not a "cushy" startup with ping-pong tables and company outings and all that. Ain't nobody got time for that... we're hustling way too hard, but as we grow I'm sure all that will change. Come here if you want to work really hard to get a product into the market, because there's lots of really hard work to be done around these parts.

London UK - Osper - http://osper.com

We provide a real prepaid debit card for young people, aged 8 to 18, so they can make independent decisions with money: online, in shops, at cash machines, and abroad. Thousands of kids have already signed up to our service.

But we not only help young people buy Legos and save for bicycles - we are building an awesome technology team that eliminates legacy code, keeps the bug rate tiny, and stays small and joyful. We are doing this by adopting techniques like pair programming, test-driven development, continuous deployment, and microservices. You can read more about our plan to be awesome on our tech blog http://tech.osper.io.

We want to meet and work with smart technical folks of all varieties - from server-side devs to sysadmins, mobile coders to testers, security analysts to data crunchers.

We are willing to arrange relocation to London for the right candidates. Sorry, we're not ready to take on remote team members at this stage.
