London (UK) and Boston (US).

We're a 100-person financial-software firm committed to learning and improvement as well as great web software and agile development.

We use Java, Scala, and some Groovy; we always write tests first and pair on most coding tasks. Developers have Linux workstations with at least two monitors. We have weekly lightning talks that cover finance and technical topics.

Some of you may know us from our sponsorship of Hacker News meetups in London. See http://devblog.timgroup.com and http://www.timgroup.com/careers for more about us.

Note we recently changed our name from youDevise to TIMGroup but we're still the same folks!

Arachnys (http://www.arachnys.com)

Full time - White Bear Yard, Farringdon, London

We're looking for smart Python developers who want to be part of a growing startup solving exciting and technically challenging problems.

Our product gathers international press and corporate data and turns it into intelligence for companies doing business in emerging markets.

As of Monday, we're now four people (2 1/2 technical :) and looking for our fifth.

We'd ideally like someone who could write a thesis on Bayesian classifiers, but we'll consider skilled engineers who can look us in the eye and make us believe that they'll learn. Very specific expertise is not a requirement; enough of a maths/compsci background to call bs on the wrong approach is.

Email founders at arachnys.com if it sounds like your sort of challenge. Include links to public code please.

San Francisco, CA. Full time. Interns. (H1B ok for the right candidates)

Betable

We're building a platform for developers to easily implement real-money betting in their games and apps.

Stack is Rails/jQuery/PG/Node but expanding VERY fast, so as long as you're super smart we're interested in meeting you no matter your favorite tools of the trade.

Looking for:

* Platform/Backend Engineers

You ideally have experience working on APIs or web services, mastery of either Ruby, Python, Perl or Scala and an advanced knowledge of RESTful services, OAuth and JSON.

You will help us build the whole platform and the developer-facing APIs.

* iOS/Android Engineer

You should have experience building SDKs in objective C, Java or C++ Game development experience and advanced knowledge of RESTful services, OAuth and JSON are big pluses.

--

We're working on some seriously hard and interesting problems, and need help with it. Our product is still in private beta but the demand is crazy and we already need to scale fast, and as one of our first engineers you'll have a strong impact on the code and product. We can guarantee a fun ride.

We're very small but are well backed by the best-of-the-best so you get the best of both worlds: an amazing team, generous equity, a competitive salary and health/dental. A fully stocked kitchen, team-cooked lunches, new computer/monitor and team trips to Vegas make up the rest of the package.

Shoot me an email at stefano [4t] betable.com if you're interested.
