#62Monetate - Conshohocken, PA (Philly suburbs) - No remote, but we will relocate.
Monetate helps digital marketers make their content more relevant. We turn data into action on our clients' sites by doing real-time data analysis and DOM manipulation to put the right experience in front of their users. We’re looking for engineers who want to do highly visible work on great brands and solve tough problems with great coworkers.
What we're looking for:
* People who like hard challenges - we have great problems across our products - huge data sets, UX, 3rd party Javascript, high volume / low latency APIs - we have no shortage of fun problems to work on.
* Problem solvers who like to code - we take things apart, figure out how they work, then build software to solve our users' problems.
* People who like to ship - we're focused on building and shipping great products - if you like to see your work in production quickly you'll see it here. We ship often (every two weeks), and iterate.
About us:
* Respect - it's our core value. We have a great team and we work well together. Our vacation policy is the same as Netflix (we don't have one). Our technical project teams are self-organizing and have full authority over (as well as responsibility for) the problems they work on.
* Founded in 2008
* Open source - Google Closure, Python, Hadoop, Mahout, Solr and Lucene - we're open source across our stack
* Funded by First Round Capital and OpenView
* Market rate salaries
We've hired great people from HN before -- and we're looking for people not positions. We have people who have joined the team with no background in our primary languages and people from non-traditional backgrounds.

#63Earlier quoted context omitted.
We have found the h1 process is easier in these cases.
Hiring is the most important thing your company is going to do, so limiting the pool for a little bit (or more) of "hassle" doesn't look wise, at best.
We're one of few early-stage startups we know of that sponsor H1B's at all so we're quite unique in this regard. We have 3 out of our team of 12. But we have to focus on recruiting team-members that have the highest probability of getting an H1 visa ultimately and having a US Masters degree in a STEM discipline greatly increases these chances. This is a conversation for a different thread but wanted to clarify as your assumption was mistaken.

#64LightSide - Pittsburgh, PA
JOB TITLE: Software Developer – Educational Technology
LightSide is hiring an experienced Java developer for a full-time position working on our machine learning tools for educational technology that improves student writing. This position will be extending and improving an existing backend system, thinking critically about performance optimization, concurrency, and security issues, as well as adding new features and functionality on a regular basis.
This job will be highly collaborative, working with our team of machine learning researchers, frontend developers, and a user experience designer. Our web services are built in Python using the Django framework; while your primary responsibilities won’t focus on this code, you may find yourself on forays into it on occasion.
No experience with machine learning or natural language processing is necessary or expected, but you need to be eager and interested in finding out how those tools work under the guidance of experienced researchers from Carnegie Mellon’s Language Technologies Institute.
This employee will work out of our office in Pittsburgh, PA, and compensation will be competitive and based on experience.
Skills and Requirements
Ideal candidates will have an active interest in educational technology, are interested in using machine learning for real-world benefit, and have prior experience with: * Java backend development in live, large-scale customer-facing web services * Working with continuous integration on Amazon Web Services or another cloud host * Dealing with databases and storage, in the context of large volumes of large files * Concurrency wrangling, potentially with specialized JVM languages like Clojure * Agile development on a small, dynamic team.
About Us
LightSide (www.lightsidelabs.com) is developing state-of-the-art technology to support writing and education – including automated assessment, formative feedback, and revision assistance for student writers. We’re a spin-out from Carnegie Mellon University, and our founders have published more than 30 papers in the fields of natural language processing, machine learning, and computer-supported collaborative learning. Our office is located in the Shadyside neighborhood of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.

#65IFTTT - https://ifttt.com/jobs - San Francisco, CA
==================================
IFTTT is looking for engineers to help build the next generation of its platform. This is a unique opportunity to contribute to the core architecture of one of the web’s most innovative and exciting services. You’ll get to work on challenging technical problems alongside a small but driven group of developers, and play a key role in shaping both the product and team culture.
IFTTT’s mission is to help people to create connections between the services and devices they use every day. We’ve built a system that enables users to set up simple “if this, then that”-style recipes, which allow activity from one web service to trigger activity in another. The current system supports over 60 unique services and runs nearly a hundred million recipe-handling tasks per day, and we plan to dramatically expand on our flexibility and scalability. Under the hood, this translates to building a platform that can talk to and move data between virtually any API you can think of, all in realtime and at massive scale.
We're well funded, and we work hard to do right by our employees. New hires at IFTTT enjoy competitive salary and equity, full benefits, sane work schedules, and a flexible vacation policy. Much more than that, we offer interesting, deep projects and an amazing team experience. We operate on the philosophy that the best job perk is fantastic teammates, and to this end we’ve assembled a staff of intensely curious, well-rounded, talented people who happen to be great engineers. We’re hoping you can be the next one.
==================================
Mobile Engineer
Earlier this summer we released our first mobile app, IFTTT for iPhone (https://ifttt.com/mobile). The response has been overwhelmingly positive (Editor's Choice, #1 Productivity). We're looking for talented mobile developers who can help us continue to innovate on iPhone, as well as bringing IFTTT to new platforms (Android, wearable computing, embedded systems, etc).
==================================
Platform Engineer
We’re hoping to find candidates who speak fluently about distributed architectures, databases, and ops, who enjoy rolling up their sleeves and writing code at all levels of the stack, and who have the confidence and depth of knowledge to take ownership of long-term projects. IFTTT currently runs on a polyglot mix of technologies, including EC2, Rails, Node.js, MySQL, Redis, Memcached, and Chef. Experience with these is a big plus, but we’re constantly evolving, and we value creative problem-solving and desire to learn over domain knowledge.

#66Trulia - San Francisco, CA (H1B transfers)
Trulia is one of the largest real estate search platforms in the United States with over 35 million unique visitors across our platform every month. We're solving interesting problems and building cool things in nearly every software engineering discipline.
We're hiring across the board - frontend, mobile, devops, data scientists, data warehousing, and pretty much anything and everything in between.
Our core web/api platform is a traditional LAMP stack, but we use a ton of other technologies as well including: Python, Java, Hadoop, Solr/Lucene, CouchBase, Backbone, d3.js, Sass, Git, etc.
The company has a fantastic culture that puts a focus on exploring new ideas and technologies. As an example, one of our VPs dropped what he was doing and built one of the very first Google Glass apps after it was released.
We have quarterly hack weeks, mind/body/spirit days, unlimited vacation time, great health benefits, full kitchens, and a roof top patio that's hard to beat on a sunny Friday evening.
This is the third or fourth time I've posted to HN and we are getting great responses (we've already hired three or four engineers from these posts). You can find more information and apply directly from our jobs page - http://www.trulia.com/jobs
If you have any questions you can contact me directly aflanagan[at]trulia.com
