Scribd (YC '06), San Francisco - VISA, FULL-TIME, and INTERN are all welcome Scribd ("Netflix for eBooks", top 100 website, 50 people) is hiring talented hackers of all kinds to help us build the library of the 21st century.

Neither contacting you at "jaredf at scribd.com" or applying directly gets me any response , even refusal , i think you should at least respond back to people applying .

I've had this issue emailing Jared as well. It's rather unfortunate.

Silent Circle - Geneva - REMOTE the norm, INTERNs welcome We do end-to-end secure communications and a secure mobile platform (Blackphone). The people who work here are highly interested in ensuring that privacy remains a possibility in the world. We need great engineers who like working on Android (both at the application and the OS layer), iOS applications, back-end infrastructure (e.g. relational and distributed D…

Incidentally I checked your hiring page a few days ago and found only non-engineering jobs listed. Will definitely send you an e-mail though. I hope you don't mind me saying, the hiring page required me to turn on cookies. For a privacy-focused company I think it would look best to not set cookies at all. (Or use cookies only for personal settings like language selection, like DuckDuckGo does.) Edit: Can't find a pub…

Yeah, you can email me and it'll find its way to the right people. My work email is josh at silentcircle.

To be honest, the hiring site is run and used by the business side of the house, as engineering prefers finding folks through other channels (e.g. this one...). I doubt we have any control over whether or not the site requires cookies, as it is a third party solution (other than picking a different provider, but that's well above my pay grade).

PrintToPeer | Calgary, Canada | Full-Stack Developer | on-site only

PrintToPeer is the first universal printing system for 3D printers, connecting them to the web. With a web interface and using Raspberry Pis as print servers, our system makes it 10x easier to use and share a 3D printer. We have challenged ourselves to redefine 3D printing, making the technology accessible, and enabling entirely new applications.

Our users have printed thousands of times, and we are expanding the platform to connect with other services. Our main objectives are to implement a RESTful API, and scale the service internationally. PrintToPeer is primarily built with rails on AWS.

We were 250% successfully crowdfunded, and have funding in place for a dev hire. You will be joining two technical founders with a love of cutting edge technologies.

Earlier quoted context omitted.

> C++ experience is required! Guess that's why I didn't hear back last month.

Sorry, I try to reply to everyone Also, if you're still in school or just graduated, make sure to include your GPA, even if your experience is amazing.

Maybe it was an AngelList hiccup. I find their "application" process odd.

Seattle, WA - REMOTE: Apsis Labs is looking to add another engineer. We are a small independent development firm located in Seattle, WA, but work as a distributed team. We have a stable client base, offer retirement and health benefits, competitive salary, and a 20-hour work week. Read more about our job philosophy here: http://apsis.io/apsis/blog/2015/04/23/work-sustainably/ . Questions, contact: jobs at apsis.io

Sounds too good to be true!

We're hoping someday it won't; with the rapid pace of automation, we're going to need to rethink what constitutes a productive adult life. We're quickly moving past the point at which society needs a 40-hour work week, and it's time for business to recognize that fact.

Please if you are offering internships, write out intern in all caps or else searching the page becomes very difficult. These posts need to become standardized or else finding relevant posts takes three times as long, because posters will use the words "internet" and "internal" et al very often.

Agreed, but I usually search for "intern " and "internship ", with a space after.

What if there is an s or a period? Wildcard regexp doesn't work in the browser, unless you install add-ons.

Our small team has backgrounds from Berkeley, MIT, Facebook, Locu and AdRoll, and we're all doing exactly what we want to be doing: building a groundbreaking new product out of thin air.

Which part of the product you take charge of depends on where your interests are, but there are several different potential areas of focus. You'll be entrusted to make sound architectural decisions as well as implement your vision effectively. We are well funded by top investors including SV Angel, Susa Ventures, Data Collective, Paul Buchheit, and more. If you’ve been waiting for an opportunity like this, please send your resume and a quick blurb about yourself to jobs@pipelinedb.com.
