I've been an Engineer here for 6 months, here are a few reasons why it's the best job I've had:

* Extreme flexibility when it comes to time off, working from home, etc.

* The smartest, most driven team I've met.

* Engineers can have an impact on every part of the organization.

* 20% time to work on your own startup, of which you retain 100% ownership (seriously, this is better than google's 20% time!)

fucking recruiters have arrived here...bottom-feeders

Hey, thanks for being so friendly! :) And recruiters have been here for a while. Seriously, though, check my post history. I'm more than just a recruiter — I'm a serious dev and I'm willing to bet I've released more open source code than most people on HN and I can almost guarantee it's more widely used. The reality is that many companies know neither how to source candidates nor how to evaluate them. Being well-know…

> Hey, thanks for being so friendly! :)

Your sarcasm is ineffective here.

> I'm a serious dev and I'm willing to bet I've released more open source code than most people on HN and I can almost guarantee it's more widely used.

That's good to see. I bet that modesty isn't one of your stronger qualities though.

> The reason recruiters are despised so much is that there's such a low barrier to entry to our field that...

You shouldn't take this the wrong way, it is your industry that is the problem, not you...

As my post said: "fucking recruiters". This specifically targeted the industry and not you. If you feel offended though, I apologize (note, no sarcasm here).

Engine Yard - Fulltime, REMOTE Frontend Engineer We're one of the oldest PaaS's out there, with support for PHP/Ruby/Java/node.js and both AWS and Azure. Earlier this year we launched a brand new user experience from the ground-up -- a new website and a completely new client-side interface. As a Frontend Engineer, you'd be working primarily on the latter. The UI is written using angular.js served up by a lightweight…

You mention that you're hiring remote, but the positions on your website list a specific location, and the front-end Dev gig isn't listed at all. is this an HN-specific posting?

At the moment, the position has only been posted to HN, though it should be up on the site and other job boards today. It just opened up, so I was eager to get it posted in this thread.

You're not using the technologies that are in demand, you're not writing detailed work histories, and you're not putting key words into your resume, please tell me you do not wonder why you're not being head hunted. You belittle developers who are trying to advance themselves, their knowledge and make a good living with your Type A thing. Everything starts off as a flavor of the week, Ruby on Rails was just a flavor…

First off, I apologize for my tone. I was tired and cranky last night when I wrote that and should not have posted it. I did not intend to belittle anyone, though it came out that way. > You're not using the technologies that are in demand, you're not writing detailed work histories, and you're not putting key words into your resume, please tell me you do not wonder why you're not being head hunted.

It's okay I was cranky when I responded, also I meant not everyone is a professional recruiter in my comment.
