Advanced Bionics in Valencia, CA is hiring a web designer/ UX/IA person. Looking for someone to help lead the charge in improving our web presence. The right person will be able to have a huge impact in pulling our web presence out of mediocrity. Our company is a good one to work for. We make cochlear implants. DLarsen@advancedbionics.com

What does IA mean in this context? Interface architect?

Information Architect I presume. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Information_architecture)

The Fireworks Project is recruiting members. This is not a typical job and certainly not a typical start up. We're looking for guy or gal #3. If you don't want to have anything to do with us, I'd still like to get your thoughts on our member managed corporate structure. No resume or CV please. I want to see blogs, GitHub accounts, StackOverflow accounts, and the like. http://www.fireworksproject.com/pages/extraordina…

Your legal document has an error. You cannot arbitrarily decide to pay your members (LLC partners) as 1099 contractors. You must follow IRS rules. From reading the rest of the description of your plan, IRS rules will be contrary to your 1099/contractor classification.

Miso - http://gomiso.com - The second screen that makes watching TV more fun.

We have an amazing team, but we're changing the game with Miso, and we need more talent to make it happen.

We're looking to hire:

- iPhone/iPad wizards

- Front-end web heads

- Server-side web devs

- Better yet: a killer developer who can wear all these hats and more.

Current technology stack: Objective-C / Cocoa Touch on the iPhone/iPad, HTML5 / CSS3 / JS / jQuery on the web, Ruby / Rails / MySQL on the backend. We constantly evaluate other technologies to incorporate where they make sense.

We're funded and located in San Francisco, in Pier 38, on the Embarcadero, next to AT&T Park.

Send your info to jobs@gomiso.com .

What's awesome is that my team has grown from one (me!) to four as these threads went out. Sadly, none directly from the HN. To correct that, drop me a line: sanj@tripadvisor.com We're looking for intern, junior and senior folks to work on stuff that's cool enough that it is embargoed. We're in Newton, MA and you'll need to be too. Warning: I'll ask you to write code pretty much the first time we talk.

what no love for linux? http://img2.me/4sWE8.jpeg Either way, I'll see what you have to offer. Good luck finding HNers

Ignore the scary banner -- it should work just fine.

Airbnb is hiring 10+ people right now. In particular, we could use some Front End Engineers (backend knowledge is a big plus). Our team is small and you will have a huge impact on the product. Email me directly at chris@airbnb.com if you: 1) are nasty with Javascript / CSS / HTML 2) can prove it with existing work on great websites or projects 3) love the idea of Airbnb More about our jobs here: http://www.airbnb.com…

Is remote work possible or only on-site?

Always a Bridesmaid is looking for developers to start ASAP (open to contractors, summer interns or full-time employees). I am a second year at Stanford GSB and will be graduating in June and working on building this business full time. We are going to build a one-stop shop online for bridesmaid dresses. The bridesmaid dress industry is a $2 billion industry in the U.S. that is fraught with pain and dominated by brick and mortar local mom and pops shops (only 19% of bridesmaid dress purchases were made online in 2009). We are going to do for the bridesmaid dress industry what Blue Nile did for diamond engagement rings.

What we are looking for: Web developer – either one person who can handle both front and back-end or one front-end developer one back-end developer.  We are going to build an e-commerce site that is overlayed with additional functionality, including workflow and coordination tools; this will be a group shopping platform where the bride can act as a mini site administrator with her bridesmaids connected to her account.  We are either going to use Magento as the e-commerce platform upon which we customize or we are building from scratch (we need help evaluating the risk of customizing on top of Magento given that the coordination tools are critical to our value proposition).  

Front-end skills should include UX and UI experience.  We would love to have someone who can help us with look and feel but are planning on having a graphic designer work with us on this if we cannot find a front-end developer who can do this too.

On the back-end, we would like to set up our website for robust analytics, inventory management, integration with an accounting system, etc.  Past experience building a website end-to-end is a must; experience with e-commerce and/or social-networking platforms is a plus.

Founder, Ilana Stern: Prior to the GSB, Ilana worked as a Buyer for Bloomingdales, where she spent a portion of her time purchasing dresses for Bloomingdale’s nationwide.  Last summer she worked for Bonobos, an e-commerce apparel start-up, and as a management consultant at Boston Consulting Group.  Ilana received her BA from University of Pennsylvania in 2005 where she focused on International Relations.

If interested, contact Ilana at stern_ilana@gsb.stanford.edu
