Ask HN: Who's Hiring? (take 2)

The original "Who's Hiring?" thread was one of the most active threads ever at HN, and I know it did a lot of good for a number of companies and individuals. I think we are due once again for such an opportunity to connect these people.

So, as LukeG put it "Are you hiring? Does your company (or your friend's) have openings? Let HN know!!! Let's get some good people good jobs."

Notes:

* I got my current job from the previous thread. It has been a pleasure.

To start, we are hiring at AboutUs in Portland, OR. We need more Rails hackers to help us scale outward and develop new aspects of our application.

We are a top 10 Rails site and get to deal with intriguing issues every day. Solving massive scaling challenges while pairing with people like Ward Cunningham (our CTO) is how we work - it could not be any more fun and engaging.

Gravity Mobile of San Francisco, CA is hiring talented mobile engineers. We prefer Java/C/C++ programmers with experience in Java ME, WinMo, Pre, or BREW but would consider iPhone developers with a track-record of published applications. Here's our website (http://www.gravitymobile.com)

We're a small boutique software house. (Less than 20 people) However, we work directly with some of the biggest companies out there. (Verizon, AT&T, Major League Baseball, Pandora)

While not a startup (we're a subsidiary of Gracenote which is a subsidiary of Sony corp) we like to work in 'startup' mode as much as possible (except the crazy hours)

If you're interested, and can legally work in the States, email haseman -at- gravitymobile +dot+ com

We're hiring interns at the moment. Internet marketing, designers and developers. Anyone that has a basic background and is will to learn is considered.

Currently sorting through 100+ candidates, but HN readers would clearly go to the top of the list.
