There's a couple job posts here that have been mistakenly hellbanned (invisible to everyone except the submitter, who doesn't realize they're being blocked). These are the affected submitters: you can read their posts from last month's "Who's Hiring", they're mostly the same. https://news.ycombinator.com/threads?id=infer (Infer, Inc., machine learning) https://news.ycombinator.com/threads?id=dirtyb1t (Cigital, securi…

Wow, thanks for pointing this out! Usually I get a bunch of responses and was surprised this time when I didn't get a single email (minus the spam emails from people trying to get me to use their company for recruiting)

Twenty20 | Santa Monica, CA | twenty20.com

We'd relocate you, and we'd sponsor your visa if you're the right person.

---

Twenty20 is a photography marketplace for physical art pieces and digital art. Based in Santa Monica, we're backed by several of the world's top investors including First Round Capital, Founders Fund, and others. Our core mission is to build a real-time catalogue of human life on earth via mobile photography.

Lots of big tech challenges ahead, and we're looking for high caliber engineers to join our team. Our rooftop office is located within walking distance from the beach and the Third Street Promenade. Come join us and help us grow!

We're a Ruby shop, and we love Rubyists. That said, you might grock Python instead, and that's alright with us as long as you're willing to learn! Job descriptions can be found here: http://twenty20.theresumator.com/apply

Most needed right now are an operations/infrastructure-heavy engineer and an iOS developer with a strong focus on UI.

Seeking Technical Co-Founder for Nonprofit Startup

We are an exciting nonprofit seeking to make the world a better place by connecting international travelers with daylong volunteering opportunities in order to bring more resources to vetted nonprofit organizations around the world.

We believe that by re-engineering international volunteering and making it open to micro-contributions we can create new revenue streams for worthy nonprofit organizations and increase awareness of global issues across a wide demographic of travelers.

We have been working on this project since August 2012 and we incorporated in July 2013. We have laid legal groundwork (applied for 501c3 and have temporary fiscal sponsor), have considerable traction with fundraising, partner organizations (6 confirmed, 6 in the works), and a few initial pilot users.

We have one full-time co-founder and two part-time co-founders - none are technical. We are seeking a technical co-founder to lead our technical strategy (including but not limited to crowdfunding and social engagement), to take on projects (including but not limited to web development and CRM), and to to be a decision-making member of our core team. Web Development experience required.

The ideal candidate can contribute 8-10 hours per week, but would be able to go full time if we are admitted into a incubator program (we plan to apply to 3+ programs this year). No compensation is currently available, but is negotiable pending funding.

We are striving to create an organizational culture that values innovation, transparency, and integrity. We are a fun core group with a dynamic extended community of volunteers and supporters.

A passion for making the world a better place and engaging global issues is essential.

If interested, please email kerry@giveadayglobal.org, tell her billy sent you :)

Oculus VR - https://careers.oculusvr.com/ - Irvine, CA Help us bring Virtual Reality to the people! Oculus is up to over 60 people (primarily engineers), and we are expanding quickly. In addition to a huge variety of positions in Irvine, CA, Oculus is looking for software engineers in Dallas, Tx. A few of the positions that are especially important to us right now are: * Web Services Engineer - Architect and implemen…

I feel like every time I see an Oculus post in these threads I get really excited for mobile work then see that you're still only hiring for Android. Any reason no iOS love?

I'm just waiting for the day the public actually uses the Rift for fully supported games. Hopefully when that comes Microsoft (and/or Sony) will have jumped on the bandwagon and implemented support for the rift too.

Docker inc - http://www.docker.com/jobs/ - San Francisco, CA

Software Engineer, Infrastructure Engineer, Web Designer

At Docker Inc, we believe that containerization will soon become the next big thing, the next tool which will be part of every developer and sysadmin toolbox. What's "containerization"? The name comes the LXC technology (Linux Containers), and the technique is also known as "Lightweight Virtualization".

That's why we recently launched Docker (http://www.docker.io/), an Open Source tool enabling anyone to run those Linux Containers very easily. Containers boot 1000x faster than virtual machines; their disk and memory footprint are also much lower; and they work on virtually all current platforms (from physical servers to public cloud instances). We think that they are the future of virtualization, and will soon become ubiquitous.

Convinced? Then fork the repo on github (https://github.com/dotcloud/docker) and have a look at the code. Not convinced? Then check the website (http://www.docker.io/), which contains more details, demos, and screencasts. Excited about this? Then join our engineering team!

Your responsibilities will include:

- being a contributor to the Docker project, which means contributing patches, and reviewing and merging pull requests from the community;

- working on some server-side applications; participate in product discussions, influence the roadmap, and take ownership and responsibility over new projects to make them happen.

You can qualify if you...:

- can read and write Go code (because docker itself is in Go);

- can read and write Python code (because many tools and services built around Docker are in Python);

- are familiar with network protocols: the lower layers like IP, TCP, and UDP; and the higher layers like HTTP;

- have experience in scaling large applications;

- believe that writing unit and functional tests is important.
