#55We recently had our 6 billionth photo uploaded and we (the engineers) just built and rolled-out the new geofences feature. Engineers really get to make a difference at Flickr on a daily basis. http://code.flickr.com/blog/2011/08/30/in-the-privacy-of-our... (That's my kitchen.)
We're hiring backend engineers, designers, and operations. Drop me a line at caudill -at- yahoo-inc.com if you're interested. I'd love to talk to you.

#56We're in Chicago, you don't have to be, though it would be preferred. We've had great luck hiring programming interns from HN and have already hired a social media/marketing intern. We could use a Public Relations intern too.
Here's the job description for the marketing intern that we already filled... We haven't written a PR intern description yet but it would be similar, but with more Public Relationsy stuff. http://feefighters.com/jobs/kickass-marketing-intern/
Press is a big part of what we do, for driving traffic to the site and SEO purposes. We have been able to get great press on our own (http://feefighters.com/press) and fired 2 different PR firms we were working with. Another aspect of PR is figuring out where we should be on the internet - responding in forums etc. Drop me a line if you're interested- email is in my profile.

#57On Time Systems is a small company that develops scheduling, routing, and other AI applications. We're currently looking for software engineers to work on Green Driver (a smartphone app that uses real-time data from traffic signals to help drivers find the fastest route (http://imagreendriver.com)) and ACFP, the flight planning system used by the US Air Force for routing non-combat flights. We're looking especially for engineers with a strong algorithmic background.
We have some really nice benefits, including (in addition to the usual ones) sabbaticals, massages, your own office with a window, and 100% tuition reimbursement (including flight school if you work on our flight planning software). We used to be a research lab at the University of Oregon, and the atmosphere maintains some of the academic feel.

#59RG Labs is hiring: http://www.rglabsinc.com/jobs
We operate under the premise that the most important decisions we make are decisions about people (e.g., who to start a company with, who to hire, who to date/marry...) We also feel like the Web is in its infancy in terms of helping us to make better decisions based on data and that this space could explode in coming years.
We're planning to be part of that explosion. :)
To hear more drop me a line directly at jonbischke at gmail or send us via our contact form. We'd love to tell you more.
