FiftyThree (New York, NY and Seattle, WA) - creators of Paper for iPad

At FiftyThree we build tools for mobile creation. Two months ago, we launched Paper , the simplest and most beautiful way to create on the iPad. Within two weeks, Paper was downloaded 1.5 million times and used to generate over 7 million creations.

FundingGates (http://fundinggates.com/jobs/) - NYC - Ruby on Rails, JavaScript (Ember.js), or Django experts! Local (or relocatable to NYC) only.

Looking for senior Ruby on Rails, JavaScript rich client, or Django developers for our young, privately-funded startup (no plans to take any more $$). You'd be engineer #1 aside from the CTO (me). We're building technology to help disrupt the small/medium business recevables space. Our software will help mom-and-pops collect money that is owed to them; without us, their options are pretty bleak (try and recover themselves or go to the guy around the corner who will do the proverbial "baseball-bat on kneecaps" ploy).

Requirements are: Super smart, amazing at Ruby on Rails OR JavaScript OR Django. You must be willing to attend and/or present at meetups, conferences, etc. and represent Funding Gates so that other awesome folks want to work here, so you must have great written and verbal communication skills.

Our company is optimized for developer happiness, have unlimited vacation and a Results Only Work Environment (http://www.gorowe.com), and is run by folks that know how to treat developers. See one of my submissions:

Thanks!!
