Whisper ( http://whisper.sh - but download the app to see what it really is) - Santa Monica, CA - Use Erlang, Node, Ruby, Python, and Cassandra. Help us grow from 2.5 BILLION pageviews/month to 25 Billion. We're a team of 8 devs and need a lot more - in data science, functional programming, iOS and Android. Come work in a house two blocks from the beach. (Sequoia and Lightspeed funded) - chad@whisper.sh
This is a pitch of sorts. You want us to be interested in your company, so you should tell us a little bit about what this is. As far as I can tell, it's a tumblr clone focused on image macros?

#412Supermechanical - Electrical Engineer - Austin, TX
http://supermechanical.com/about/jobs.html
Supermechanical is making a new generation of everyday objects that connect people. Range is an iOS kitchen thermometer that helps cooks get better results. Twine is a little square that lets your objects and environments talk on the Internet with little effort. But this is just the beginning. So much technology fails to serve our needs. We want to give soul to electronics, and make connections between us.
We get to directly affect the way regular people perceive and interact with their physical world. We're small, so we each wear several hats and have the power to do wonderful things quickly. We're flexible about work schedule and working from home. We work intensely on the product, but we're informal about everything else.
If you're as passionate about building beautifully integrated hardware/software products as we are, we want to talk to you.

Nirav, could you please reply to an email? At least when it is from a HN user. Thanks. EDIT: I sent an email more than a month ago. Second one two weeks ago. No reply. So what's the problem? (asking to downvoters)
Sorry, replied via email. We don't have a full time recruiter or HR person (it's a position on our careers page), so replying to each application in a personal manner is time taken out of engineering at the moment.

#420Pac Global Insurance Brokerage, Inc - REMOTE or Los Angeles, CA
Full stack Rails developer.
This is a somewhat unique position for the hiring thread. We're looking for someone to take over the development of our website and related back office tools. You would be a one man show working closely with our Operations Manager and have lots of control with respect to scheduling and the technologies we use. Our existing contractors are HN readers (they're the ones helping us make this post). We're looking to take someone on full time. They've used modern tools/frameworks and kept the code base in good order. The point is this: you'll be taking over a well maintained project... not walking into a nightmare.
We think this is a good opportunity for someone who would like to work solo but also be secure in a full-time position.
