Twilio (cloud telephony, San Francisco - SOMA) is hiring a couple engineers, a head of biz dev, an evangelist (that's what I just started doing a week ago) and a product manager: http://www.twilio.com/company/jobs

This is an insanely cool company to work for. Check out their hackathons on the weekends if you're just curious.

Note I work here too :)

Location: State College, PA, USA Videon Central is looking to hire a software engineer: http://www.videon-central.com/careers/openings/98 Primarily C/C++ on bleeding-edge silicon, fantastic people and work environment, and great management. Joel Test score: 12/12 State College is located right in the middle of Pennsylvania and is the home of Penn State University. It's not bad for a college town, has great MTB trails…

The copy for this position on the careers page incorrectly refers to C/C++ as C/C. Interesting though.

Thanks, I'll try to get that fixed on Monday.

Yes, if you wanted to, you could stop by your offices today or tomorrow and meet the team or just hack on Twilio and Boxee http://twilio-boxee-hackathon.eventbrite.com/

This kind of thread is exactly why I work at http://linkup.com/ - which is a job search engine that works by only including jobs found on company websites. Let me give a quick example of what that means:

Twitter has 34 job openings (http://twitter.com/positions.html). They, being Twitter, don't have a hard time finding people so their jobs aren't on CareerBuilder/Monster (http://jobsearch.monster.com/Search.aspx?brd=1&cn=Twitte...). The other job aggregators, like Indeed or SimplyHired, only have the jobs that have been copied onto other sites (http://www.indeed.com/jobs?as_cmp=Twitter - note the links don't actually go to the company website). We (LinkUp) have all their jobs - http://www.linkup.com/results.php#c=Twitter. Another HN-worthy list is http://www.linkup.com/lists/Y_Combinator_Startups, but you'll have to guess what the link is...

The technology behind LinkUp takes a lot more work than your standard scrape because many companies make it difficult to get to a reusable link to an individual job, and there's no unified format to tell title from description from location. And right now we only have a hair over 20,000 companies, so I don't tell anyone that we're the only site a jobseeker should use - just the first;-)

I don't have personal experience of it, but I believe BitTorrent is hiring.

ADDED IN EDIT:

OK, in response to getting downmodded I went to find where I saw it, and here's the reference:

http://www.bittorrent.com/company/jobs

So what's with the down-mods? Do you hate BitTorrent? Do you want me to do your work for you? I gave information that was asked for, and stated my lack of connection with the company, what more do you want?
