Booking.com is always on the lookout for good developers, DBA's and sysadmins on-site in the center of Amsterdam. I'm a developer there currently working on infrastructure tasks and relocated over there about three years ago, and have been very happy with it.
We have people from all over the world relocating to work with us and are very well set up to handle relocation and visa issues, most of the people working in IT are expats so we've got a lot of experience with bringing people in.
It's a rapidly growing company that represents the biggest chunk of the Priceline (PCLN) group of companies where problems that look relatively mundane on paper become much more interesting due to the scale and growth levels we're operating at.
We use Perl for almost everything with a MySQL backend and Git for development. We get our changes out really fast, it's rare for your code not to be on our live systems within hours of you pushing it. We're also very open to open sourcing code that doesn't contain any business logic, I've personally been involved in open sourcing a few of our internal tools, including https://github.com/git-deploy and a few CPAN modules.
We have a relatively flat hierarchy with minimum levels of bureaucracy since we're very data driven and have a clear goal: helping our customers. You don't have to know Perl in advance to be a developer there. We've hired people who've done C, Java etc. before. The sort of people we'd like to hire are good technically, excellent at communication, and can acquire a good sense of how they fit into the big picture.
I'd be happy to answer any questions at avarab@gmail.com and/or forward your resume, I've posted in a similar thread here a few times before andI've fielded a bunch of questions from would-be applicants. http://booking.com/jobs also has some good information.

Bizzby is a well-funded startup preparing to revolutionize the economy. We are a team of talented, highly-motivated developers and designers based in Shoreditch, working hard to deliver jaw-dropping software within the next few months. There are two vacant positions that we'd love to fill. Come and be extraordinary with us!
* Back-end developer (Node.js, CoffeeScript, MongoDB)
You should have a deep understanding of the principles of good object oriented software design and prefer writing code test-driven out of choice. Experience with CoffeeScript is not essential but knowledge of JavaScript and a passion for learning is.
* QA engineer (iOS, Android, mobile web)
You should come with a strategy for test automation across a wide range of devices and operating systems, backed by the technical chops and experience to put your plans into practice. We want you to break our stuff then help us to make it better!
The salary for both positions is above market rates for the right candidate and comes with gym membership, iPhone and more Mac equipment than you can shake a stick at.
If this sounds like your cup of tea, send your CV to phil@bizzby.com - no remote workers or agencies please.

Our current online banking platforms (yes, plural) are hosted third-party solutions. We're building it in-house from scratch to be an API-driven JS MVC (Ember) application for cross-platform deployment.
This is where you come in: we're looking for a few developers who want to be a part of building something right the first time. The team building this is currently just me and two other people and we will be building everything forward of API consumption (UI dev, testing, & deployment across any imaginable platform). We'll be working with PhoneGap, Swagger, HTML/Handlebars, CSS/Compass/SCSS, JS, Ember, PhoneGap, Chef, Selenium, Mixpanel, Optimizely, and/or whatever other tools are right for the job (little is set in stone, we're in the prototype phase of the project). There are lots of jobs in other segments as well.

Our hiring post: http://devblog.mixlr.com/2013/02/01/were-hiring/
Mixlr is a platform for live audio with nearing 1 million registered users. We've built a series of products based around an extensive live broadcasting infrastructure, all fully maintained and managed in house.
We have a strong sense of product and design, and an interesting and scalable technical architecture.
We've got to where we are as a team of four. Now we're looking to expand and would like to talk to smart and passionate engineers who want to join us.
--- C++ engineer (full-time, London)
Our cross-platform desktop app is written is C++, and is a core part of our service.
We're looking to find somebody who is comfortable with deploying (beautfully written, maintainable) C++ applications to multiple platforms, and has at least a working knowledge of audio or video callbacks and streaming techniques.
We make heavy use of the QT framework, so some familiarity here would be useful, and the standard Unix toolchain features heavily in our workflow (we currently build using MinGW for Windows).
At Mixlr, we debug multithreading problems before breakfast. And because our app is currently a web/native hybrid, being comfortable working with networking and a good knowledge of web development techniques would be an advantage.
--- Dev-ops/Sysadmin (full-time, London).
At Mixlr our product requires an extensive and occasionally challenging backend infrastructure.
We are looking to find an experienced backend engineer with deep knowledge of managing both virtualized and physical environments. A strong knowledge of Amazon Web Services is a must, as that's where our entire stack is deployed right now.
We use Puppet to manage and deploy our servers, Ruby for scripting and run a 100% Linux environment making strong use of the Unix tool chain.
Experience of deploying and monitoring Ruby on Rails applications: we currently extend Nginx with a Lua caching layer, to enable us to use full page-caching for the majority of our website traffic. Being comfortable debugging, maintaining and improving this layer will be essential. Knowledge of MongoDB, Redis and deploying various applications on the Java virtual machine would also be directly relevant.
As with all of our roles, a passion for music and/or audio is a plus!
--- Android developer (full-time, London)
We've already designed and released a successful and well-received mobile application for iOS, and now we are planning to bring the full Mixlr experience to Android devices.
We are looking for an experienced Android developer to join the team on a permanent basis, and design and build Mixlr's Android app - from the first Git commit onwards.
We're looking for somebody to hit the ground running, so were you to apply you should have prior experience in building a non-trivial Android app. You should be confident with advanced Java programming techniques including advanced multithreading techniques.
As with all of our positions, you'll be interacting extensively with our various web services and the wider internet, so being comfortable in the world of networking would be an advantage.
--- Rails developer (full-time, London)
Our website is still the core way in which our users interact with Mixlr, and we have big plans for it going forward.
The ideal candidate would have extensive Ruby on Rails experience and be comfortable working with an extensive Rspec test suite. We make heavy use of the jQuery and Backbone JavaScript frameworks, write our CSS using SCSS, and rely on MongoDB and Redis to store and cache our data.
We would like to meet a smart, passionate Rails developer who is eager to extend their skill set, working on a fast-growing product with thousands of daily users.
