We're building a product that makes it easy for people to create sites with content that is easy to query, visualize and share. On a deeper level, our vision is to bring the semantic web to the masses and build an amazing company around that.
We're working on many interesting and challenging problems, with a custom-built Haskell graph-database on the back-end and a cutting-edge Functional Reactive client-side framework in Javascript on the front-end. We are well-funded by top-tier VCs (NEA and Atomico) and are located in the city center of Amsterdam.

#4---------------------------------------
We are a small team passionate about making people's lives better through software.
A little bit about us:
- We write custom software of all shapes and sizes for clients all over the US
- Though everyone here is fluent in Ruby, we don't artificially limit ourselves.
In the past few months, I've worked with Objective-C, Backbone.js (inside
PhoneGap), Angular.js, Ruby (of course) and a little bit of Java and C#.
- We practice a sustainable pace. We recognize that we each have lives,
activities, and families outside of work. Late nights and > 40 hour weeks are
rare by design.
- We're agile, but not dogmatic about it. Our process evolves to suit our needs.
- We offer competitive salaries, health/vision/dental insurance, quarterly profit
sharing, retirement + match, weekly catered lunches, and a top-floor office
with snacks, guitars, and your choice of standing or sitting desks.
A little bit about Grand Rapids: - 2.5 hours from Chicago and Detroit, less than an hour to the beach.
- Lots of great beer. Founders Brewery (a mile from our office) has 3 beers in
the Beer Advocate top 15. HopCat is a “World Class” bar on BA.
Just look here: http://beeradvocate.com/beerfly/city/43
- If you’re renting anything larger than a breadbox in the Bay Area or NYC,
you can afford a house here. I bought a nice house with a mortgage payment
30% lower than the rent of my 1 bedroom apartment in Mountain View.
- A growing technology and startup community.
A little bit about you: - You love writing software, and you have a few years of experience doing it.
- You learn new stuff quickly. You’ve used a lot of technologies, but you’re not
afraid to use more. It would be nice if you use and love Ruby, but not required.
- You believe software is written for humans, not computers.
- You want to come into work every day and enjoy the people you work with.
If you're interested, send me your resume/CV and a little bit about why you’re interested:ej@mutuallyhuman.com

#7Hiring: Software Developer, DevOps Engineer, Product Evangelist, Interns
We are a small & successful bootstrapped software company from Berlin and build popular web-based applications for software teams. We have been in business since 2004 and many thousands of teams, both small and large, use our products. We are looking for software developers, a DevOps engineer and a product evangelist to join our team. You can learn more on our website here:
http://www.gurock.com/about/jobs/
We are also looking for interns (paid) or computer science students to help us with various smaller projects part time.
Our main product TestRail is web-based test management software. It's available both as a download edition as well as a SaaS/cloud edition. In addition to completely designing and building our products in-house, we maintain our own high-availability and critical server infrastructure for our products. If you join our team you can expect a wide array of opportunities and challenges to test your skills.
We are about to open an awesome office in Berlin (Prenzlauer Berg, near Mitte) and offer great benefits. We use a modern web development stack with PHP, an advanced custom MVC framework (like Rails), Vagrant etc. Our server infrastructure uses Ubuntu LTS, Ansible, HAProxy, MySQL, Corosync and DRBD among other things.
We are building an international team and most of our customers are from North America and all over Europe, so speaking German is not required. If you are in Berlin (or consider relocating) and one of our open positions sounds like a good fit, let me know.

#8We're a small company selling software and services to a technical and demanding industry. Our international team is looking for someone who is up to learning something possibly completely new, and extending their coding abilities on varied systems that we're in the process of scaling.
Tools we work with include: Python/Flask/PostgreSQL, C/C++, /Java (server side), AngularJS (frontend), OSX/Windows/iOS/Android apps
You will need to be available for working with our customers on the phone between at least 10am-3pm CET (Central European Time), and collaborating with our distributed dev team during some later hours some parts of the week (flexi-time). You should have good speaking english to take occasional support calls during the day - this is an important part of how we work, where all developers have direct access to customers. We'd also love to have a German speaker on board.
Interns/Junior devs completely welcome to apply - if you are just learning to code, have a technical background in any field and can demonstrate genuine aptitude for independent learning please get in touch. This is a 100% remote position and some of us have kids while working from home so we're very family-friendly. It's also an excellent position for anyone studying.
Email resume, github profile etc to hire.me.mex@gmail.com

#9Want to work with former YC founders (myself included, I was a cofounder of a company in W13), computer vision NASA PhDs, and passionate coffee drinkers? (one of our founders is an investor in Philz Coffee and a former investment partner at Sequoia Capital) Come join MeCommerce!
We're changing the face of e-commerce through computer vision technologies (9 patents and counting), and making them available to anyone with a smartphone - a very challenging problem. We're also building a vertically integrated apparel brand, where we control the full supply chain and in turn our destiny, while using software to help optimize how we buy and how we personalize the experience for each individual user. While we're in stealth, we're well-funded by a long list of tier-1 VCs and angels (Yuri Milner, a16z, Keith Rabois, Michael Kors, and many others including a number of celebrities).
We are small and are carefully growing our team - we have a strong preference for founders or people who have worked at startups. I can't say enough good things about working here - the founders have created a great culture.
In San Francisco, we're looking for:
* iOS / Android developers (if you're a mobile animal, we want to talk!)
* computer vision / image recognition experts
* machine learning specialists
* UI/UX designers
* software engineering interns (open to the type)
If you like to really own the product you're working on, soup to nuts, and any of this excites you, feel free to reach out to me directly: eugene at mecommerce.com
