Los Angeles, CA : We're looking for Linux sysadmins, this is an entry level position, ideal for someone with a little, but not too much real world Linux experience. (read: not the highest pay, but a great learning experience). Additionally we're looking for Rails contractors for steady part time work, preferably in the LA area, but if you're remote that would be fine as well. Contact me at andrew@andrewvc.com and I'l…

Would you also accept an application as a sysadmin coming from Austria?

We're building a smart and lean team to develop a super duper exciting hosted log file management solution on Amazon. Our stack includes various AWS bits, syslog, Solr Cloud, Zookeeper, 0MQ, a bunch of Hadoopiness, various NoSQL datastores, Django, Javascript, absolutely no Flash, and one crazy ass beaver.

Think about REST APIs for all your logfiles.

We just got a new office with massive brick walls at 1st and Mission, and we're minutes away from the luxuries of downtown San Francisco.

We're well funded and well fed. Come join us.

Another "who's hiring" thread, another shameless plug: please, if you are posting here about your startup, or if you have a job listing, please take a look at http://job4dev.com/jobs/new. It's completely free to create a listing, and your company gets a page much like crunchbase, but focused on information relevant for job seekers.

If you are looking for jobs, you can browse at http://job4dev.com/jobs. You can filter listings by position, by tags, look for contract jobs only, telecommuting, etc. We just started scraping some of the most interesting job boards out there (e.g: 37signals, Stackoverflow, Ars Jobs), so we have a good number of jobs too.

We are doing a good job at making information easily available. What we need now is to have more users (job seekers as well as job recruiters) checking the website.

(EDIT: downmodders, could you please explain what you have against me talking about a website that is completely related to the thread?)

(EDIT 2: Appsaurus just put their listings over there. http://job4dev.com/company/hello-chair-inc. Thanks, guys!)

Leeds, UK

I am Tom Williams, Lead Engineer at Dubit Limited (we're here: http://dubitplatform.com), and I'm looking for many devs. We'll look at anyone from Uni graduates to people with years of experience, the only prerequisite is you've got to be a passionate coder! You'll get much kudos for community involvement though, even more so if it's on something exceptionally cool. In return we promise to get you a cake for your birthday, and as much scooter action as you can handle.

I'm not looking for a job but I love these threads because I get a nice quick rundown of what other startups are doing and where, and a nice blurb about their team and environment. It helps me feel closer to the other entrepreneurs on HN, like if I ever ran into one of them I'd already have an extra little connection.

Same! We're not hiring yet but I'll definitely use HN to find our next developer! I'm also surprised at how many NYC startups are here :)

There aren't nearly enough startups here in Kansas City. At least, not the kind that hang out on Hacker News.

Glad you like our stuff; sorry you never got a callback! Our HR department was very disorganized for a while -- it should be a lot better now.

I'm sure it cost us a number of excellent people.
