Klicknation Inc, for which I am a product manager, is hiring.

Our flagship product is Superhero City, a Facebook game. You may wonder if a Facebook game can support a whole (small) company, and my answer would be a resounding 'yes'.

So if you love games and you're willing to work in Sacramento, CA, you should send us a resume.

Our next game, another Facebook RPG, will feature some really cool stuff that nobody has ever done before on Facebook.

We don't officially have any openings right now, but if your resume is good I will personally bother our CEO until you at least get an interview.

Email resumes to me at aaron@klicknation.com and I will forward them to the appropriate people. Make sure to mention Hacker News so I know the resume is not completely unsolicited.

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.

We're a social gaming startup with some pretty decent traction (http://apps.facebook.com/happyhabitat , > 500K monthly uniques) and funding. We're looking for an awesome software engineer who is or wants to work on any part of the product. Job posting here: http://jobs.zipzapplay.com/

We're looking for someone full time and on site in San Francisco, CA.

Shoot me a line if you know someone who's looking. Specific skill set/languages is less important than just a kick ass software engineer. curt [at] zipzapplay.com

Mozilla is hiring! Hard core C++, webdev, IT, QA, marketing, internships, you name it. http://www.jobvite.com/CompanyJobs/Jobs.aspx?c=qpX9Vfwa HQ in downtown Mountain View, CA, but we have offices in Toronto, New Zealand, Paris, Tokyo and Beijing. Great benefits, extremely challenging projects (scaling web services to 350+ million users, optimizing our JS engine, making Firefox mobile fast on phones). We're even gett…

My wife bought me a Firefox laptop bag a few years ago. I've had some people mistake me for a Firefox developer and thank me for my work, so I have to correct their mistake and explain it's just my way of supporting their favorite browser too. After all that it's always been a dream of mine to work on Firefox, but I've always felt too busy and intimidated by the size of the project to contribute on my own. Perhaps th…

Please don't be intimidated! You can help a little or a lot.

Check out http://www.mozilla.org/contribute/ . You can write code (websites, Firefox, and more), find bugs, offer support, localize, etc.

Hop on irc.mozilla.org and join a channel that you're interested in if you want to talk to someone.

TripAdvisor is hiring in Newton (near Boston). We have interviews that make people either sad (because they're hard) or very, very happy (because it is fun to be challenged). My team is working on making money using social apps in a real, sustainable way. It's way, way cool. And you get to walk around saying things like "a billion pins" and "Why don't you just tell me the name of the movie you want to see?" ps. no re…

My team is working on one of the most JS-heavy apps I've ever seen (Gmail being the exception). I'd highly recommend tossing us a resume.

My team works in PHP or Java (though we don't care too much about particular languages, we just want you to rock). We're looking for full-timers and interns.

Toss me a resume at bkrausz AT tripadvisor DOT com, I'll be sure to pass it along to sanj if I don't want to steal you for my team ;-).
