Evanston, IL

Leapfrog Online is looking for a talented Chicago-area Python engineer to work in our Evanston office. Our Python engineers build and maintain high-traffic web sites using the Django web framework. We offer a great working atmosphere, a strong focus on work-life balance, and tremendous opportunities to learn new skills and technologies. We also have competitive salaries and benefits and close-knit teams who like what they do.

As we principally focus on the web, we look for real-world experience using Python application frameworks (such as Django) to build high-traffic web sites and applications. Experience with other languages is welcome. What are the extras we look for? Experience producing and consuming web services (SOAP, REST, XML-RPC); experience working with message-oriented systems (AMQP or other message, pub-sub and task queues such as Celery); deep knowledge of version control systems (especially Mercurial or Git); an interest in non-RDBMS data stores (CouchDB, MongoDB, Redis); knowing what it really means to develop RESTful applications; and, experience with functional and declarative programming models in addition to object-oriented development.

If you're a bright, self-motivated engineer who enjoys using open source software to solve interesting problems, you’re our kind of programmer, and we’d like to talk to you. You can apply on our site, where you'll also find full job descriptions and information about Leapfrog Online: http://www.leapfrogonline.com/who/careers/

Seattle, WA - BigDoor - http://www.bigdoor.com/

We're a gamification platform – we make it easy for anyone to add fun, relevant loyalty programs to their site or app. Lots of people are focused on badges and leaderboards – and we do that – but we consider that the simple stuff. We're way ahead of that. We're also working with major brands (a few I can mention: Major League Baseball, MTV, Dell).

We're venture-backed, still small but growing fast.

Positions:

* Full-stack web developer: Python, Django, JavaScript.

* Devops: Linux, Apache, MySQL.

* MySQL DBA with AWS experience.

* Content manager (aka Quest Master): Help our bigger partners create and maintain their virtual economies.

Don't be shy: hr@bigdoor.com

UK - London - Software Developer

We're looking to get some people in here at Revector. We work with mobile phone operators and run distributed systems that test out their networks. We have existing (profitable!) products and there are some new products on the drawing board as I speak, so this is a great time to join us.

There's plenty to get involved in: Hardware interfaces (VoIP, SMS etc); Intelligent scheduling; Data storage and processing; Front-end presentation. We're very small, so you can get stuck in and make a big impression.

Experience with Python, Shell, MySQL and Redis would be great, but if you're good then you'll have no trouble picking these up. The positions are listed as graduate ones, but we'd be really happy to hear from people with more experience.

The website has a load more info: http://www.revector.com/careers

San Francisco, CA

SeatMe is hiring! We're a cozy 13 person startup in downtown San Francisco. We're revolutionizing the restaurant industry and we need your help! We're in search of:

  * Web developers (we're a Django shop)
How often do you get a chance to work at a tech startup where eating out can be written off as a tax-refundable business expense? Well not here, because our CEO would go to jail (and he's never going back to the big house), but we do work in an awesome intersection of technology and fine dining.

We offer a very competitive salary, benefits, moving costs and equity options for all full-time employees.

Apply online - http://www.seatme.com/jobs/

Burligame, CA - Collaborative Drug Discovery (CDD) (https://www.collaborativedrug.com)

CDD is growing and financially stable. Our software helps scientists manage, analyze and collaborate around their drug discovery data (chemistry and biology). We are are in a great position to support the evolution towards more collaboration, specialization and distribution in a market that has been historically closed and secretive. The model has been successful with academic labs, small biotech startups and very large collaborations (like the Gates foundation TB initiative or MM4TB in Europe). We are now gaining some traction with government agencies and the big pharmaceuticals.

I am hiring a full-stack software developer (https://www.collaborativedrug.com/pages/employment#h-1). As one of three developers, you need to be comfortable working or interested in building expertise at every level of the stack. Experience or interest in system administration and operations is nice to have though not required. We have many projects involving data visualization, data processing, scaling, security, privacy and other software challenges to make our scientific application collaborative, engaging and rewarding.

It is perfectly OK if you do not have experience with any of the languages or technologies we currently use (Rails/Ruby/JS/MySQL/Solr...) as long as you can learn those quickly. CDD is a great place if you want to have a lot of impact and like to take on projects and responsibilities.

If you are interested, contact work@collaborativedrug.com, you will get an answer from one of the developers (we do not have recruiters or HRs).

New York, NY (in NoHo on Broadway). Full time and internships.

QLabs

We're a new type of in-house incubator: we prototype startups by building and launching an MVP every 6-8 weeks. This is like startup boot-camp. Come hack with us on amazing projects, learn everything there is to know about building and launching products and starting companies, all without the painful early-startup salary.

We take an aggressive approach to learning and inspiration. Example: six weeks ago, our team spent the day at MIT's Media Lab, where we learned about biomechatronics, fluid interfaces, and more. Even though our primary tool is Rails, half of us just learned nodejs for a two-week 'sprint project'.

The lab started in February of this year, and now has five awesome developers (hailing from Columbia, Disney Imagineering, ITP, NYC Resistor, and more). We're looking to fill position #6.

Show us your projects: we love to see an entrepreneurial streak and a diversity of experience.

Email me at rw@rwinslow.com if this appeals to you!
