Earlier quoted context omitted.

I did say that, but then realised that I was actually not doing anything wrong. The thread states: "Feel free to post any job that may interest HN readers from executive assistant to machine learning expert to CTO." My current post, which includes actual job openings, abides by that statement. Judging by the # of people that go ahead and click, I'd say readers here are interested in the jobs on WFH.io and therefore I…

I fixed the posting to avoid this pretext for ignoring the intent of the thread: "Please do not post recruiting firms or job boards."

And what exactly is http://hirerefugees.org ? Whilst I completely commend your involvement w/ that site, it does feel like a bit of a double standard here.

AvantCredit (Chicago) is hiring senior data scientists, data engineers, and data dev ops. We offer competitive salaries and a flexible work environment.

http://avantcredit.com/jobs

We have gone from 0 to 150 employees in a little under fifteen months and have raised more money last quarter than all other Chicago startups in the same period last year combined. (http://bit.ly/1hp2cx4)

Our stack is Ruby on Rails and R deployed on Heroku and AWS, respectively, and we do not mess around. All of our R packages are documented, tested, and vignetted. We have continuous deployment and integration (yes, on the data science side!), and all of our classifiers are automatically backtested and validated.

We're trying to make https://github.com/hadley look novice. Sound interesting? Email robk@avantcredit.com

Chicago, IL - Software Developer - Charlie App https://charlieapp.com/jobs

You want to get in on the ground floor of a funded startup. You’re a come up with mind-blowing solutions to complex problems. You get excited over new technology and have to play with it right away. You test, refactor, and love your code. You write killer back-end code, but don’t shy away from the front-end.

>> WHO ARE WE?

Before any meeting, Charlie automatically researches people before you see them. Researching people is a complex problem: we sift through, analyze, and manipulate data into powerful insights (i.e. what are they passionate about, what do you have in common?). CNBC called us “One of the world’s most promising new companies” and SXSW selected us as an Accelerator Finalist.

We’ve built Charlie to research people at massive scale, using the latest Ruby on Rails stack with MongoDB, Redis, Sidekiq, and hosted in an elastic cloud farm. We write code with agility and have a tight process where anyone on the team can deploy to production at any time, without approval. We thoroughly test our code, though we’re not strict TDD. We have a small dev team where everyone loves to code, are passionate about Charlie, and push-and learn from each other on a daily basis.

This is your opportunity to join an early-stage company that’s making moves. Sound interesting? Let us know what makes you the perfect candidate.

>> WHY WE'RE SPECIAL

* Flexible working situation: hours, location

* Competitive salary + equity

* Funded startup backed by some amazing people

* Everyone deploys to production (continuous, fully automated, painless)

* We go out and do fun things (concerts, Bulls & Cubs games, and occasionally ski in Colorado)

>> REQUIREMENTS

* Full-stack developer (heavy back-end)

* Ruby on Rails preferred, but you can learn.

* DB experience (SQL or NoSQL?)

* Not afraid of the front-end (HTML5, jQuery, Coffeescript, bootstrap, Sass, Slim)

* Test your code (Rspec, capybara, cucumber, etc)

* Hobbyist: Working on a side project to learn new technology?

* Creative problem solver

* Git / Github

* Smart & gets things done.

Front Row Education (https://www.frontrowed.com/) - San Francisco, Fulltime

At Front Row, we’re building an incredibly powerful tool to help kids learn math, and help math teachers be more effective. In just 8 months after launch, we’re in more than 1.5% of US schools, and are growing rapidly. We solve the hard problem of computing large amounts of student data and presenting it to teachers in a way that they can use it to personalize instruction for each student.

We’re looking for engineers who have functional programming experience, or are really excited about functional programming to work on our product built in Clojure, Haskell, and JS.

We’re looking for the first engineers (after the CTO) to join the team and have immense impact on our success and our culture. Given this high level of responsibility, we offer a generous amount of equity. Finally, everyone at Front Row has a ton of flexibility in where they work, and what they work on.
