We're launching 2-3 new substantial web projects this year, and need some great hackers to help us.

We're based in Milwaukie, OR -- just a couple of minutes south of Portland. On-site strongly preferred, but c'mon, you know you've been wanting to move to Portland anyway...

RethinkDB in Mountain View, CA: looking for system and performance engineers. Interns also welcome. More details here: http://www.rethinkdb.com/jobs Here's a quick blurb from our jobs page: Working at RethinkDB truly involves disruptive technology and solving interesting, challenging problems. Building caching algorithms, advanced data structures, and lock-free concurrency primitives from scratch is just business as…

That's kind of nice that you post your salary ranges online, but do you really think you'll get quality engineers for those salaries?

Position Salary Stock Options Intern 50K - 60K, prorated N/A Engineer I 65K - 75K 0.25% - 0.75% Engineer II 80K - 90K 1.0% - 1.5% Engineer III 95K - 105K 1.75% - 2.25%

For interns, that's a great salary, but your senior engineers will probably expect 1.5 times that.

SSi Micro is hiring great hackers. Know C pretty well, be great at one high-level language (Python, PHP, whatever), be a quick learner (and we mean quick), and then come and be a propellerhead at our awesome, small company. www.ssimicro.com/jobs We're a little company based in Yellowknife, the capital city of the Northwest Territories. We deliver broadband satellite internet to 61 of the most remote communities on ea…

What kind of internet service do you have in Yellowknife itself?

Great question. Thankfully, we have a terrestrial link from down south all the way up to the Knife, so we have decent access. I say "decent" and not "amazing" because our bandwidth isn't anything like it is in some bigger markets down south, but it's totally reasonable for most stuff I find. (There's no buffering for Youtube or most streaming video websites, Divx movies need some time to buffer, usual throughput at home is around 300 kb/s down 100 kb/s up, at the office it's a couple megabits, enough to never have to wait for anything.)

I guess this means we don't do too much dogfooding, but our lives would be a lot more difficult if we did.

I'd just like to post a friendly reminder before this thread fills up with a lot of posts. Please post your location, or if the job(s) in question can be done remotely, specify so - it makes things much easier.

Where is the app around this post? I've always thought it would be interesting to have some social network way to know about jobs via friends and previous co-workers. LinkedIn has never really done much for me and it seems you have to be more proactive there.

Blurb is hiring!

Want to work in a great environment with great people making a great product? We're a print-on-demand publisher with an emphasis on high-quality products and great user experiences.

Almost any time I'm in a group I'll tell people I work here, and someone will get excited and tell me about their book they made with us. It's really great to see how passionate our users get, and that's a nice change from other development jobs I've had. :)

We're in SF. The development jobs are Ruby on Rails, but we have lots of other non-dev job openings also.

I'd like to see this kind of post every month, how about the first monday of every month? A lot of hackers are looking for jobs and a lot of entrepreneurs are also hiring. Perfect match!

- Jobs HN: We are hiring

- Jobs HN: We are available

One for entrepreneurs to post their openings.

One for hackers to post their availability and skills.

I know we already have HN jobs, but this may be an informal way for HN readers and contributors, and who knows, it may grow to be part of our community.
