London UK - Osper - http://osper.com

We provide a real prepaid debit card for young people, aged 8-18, so they can make independent decisions with money: online, in shops, at cash machines, & abroad. Thousands of kids have already signed up to our service.

But we not only help young people buy Legos and save for bicycles - we are building an awesome technology team that eliminates legacy code, keeps the bug rate tiny, and stays small & joyful. We are doing this by adopting techniques like pair programming, test-driven development, continuous deployment, and microservices. You can read more about our plan to be awesome on our tech blog http://tech.osper.io. We want to meet and work with smart technical folks of all varieties - from server-side devs to sysadmins, mobile coders to testers, security analysts to data crunchers - but especially front-end experts who like mobile app development of any kind (we happen to use PhoneGap/Cordova but don't expect candidates to know this framework).

We are willing to arrange relocation to London for the right candidate. Sorry, we're not ready to take on remote team members at this stage.

Main Street Hub // Austin, TX // email: brandon.beck@mainstreethub.com

We are looking for a few experienced software engineers to join our small but growing R&D team in downtown Austin. Within engineering we are a passionate group of people who are extremely interested in building the software that helps our customers around the country thrive in their local communities. We’re a really small team (currently 9 people) so you’ll have plenty of say around how we develop software going forward.

We are currently in the process of modernizing our software platform to be more modular and truly data driven. Our goal is to use data to make sure that we provide the right content to the right consumer at the right time. We’re building our internal API using REST based services implemented in Java, and while our front end is currently implemented in PHP, that may change in the future. Some of the technologies that we’re using: Dropwizard, Swagger, Flyway, CodeIgniter, Phake, Guzzle, CloudFormation, Troposphere, and Ansible. All new engineers get company provided downtown parking, flexible work hours, 100% of their health insurance premiums paid for by the company, the ability to build their own work computer, and access to our kitchen with plenty of drinks and snacks. We’re looking for individuals only so please no recruiters or agencies. In addition we’re looking for full-time employees who are already in Austin, TX or willing to relocate.

Hitmeister - http://www.hitmeister.de/ - Cologne, Germany (Full Time, Local, VISA)

Web developer: full-stack, frontend, or backend. Most of us work at all levels of the web stack, but if your strength lies in just frontend or backend work, that's okay too.

We're a small team (10 people) using PHP, Zend Framework, MySQL, MongoDB, ElasticSearch, RabbitMQ, and memcached. We have a customer-facing site, a JSON API, logistics software, and an internal admin site, all of which we build and maintain internally.

Hitmeister.de is one of the largest online shopping portals in Germany, with over 2 million customers to date. We have a warehouse from which we sell items directly, but we also have a marketplace with over 2,000 sellers running their own shops. We're seeing solid growth and we're looking for more programming talent to grow and improve the site.

Speaking German is helpful, but by no means required. I'm from the US and we have 2 other non-German developers. If you aren't an EU citizen, we are glad to help with visa issues. In particular, if you have a CS degree or several years of experience you probably qualify for an EU Blue Card, and we have lots of experience with those. We don't do remote work, but we'll help you relocate.

Here's the job description in German:

http://company.hitmeister.de/jobs/webentwickler-frontend-bac...

If you have any questions, feel free to get in contact with me (info in my profile), or you can apply directly at jobs@hitmeister.de.
