Software Eng, UI Designer - Iowa City, IA, US (we're mostly remote AND on-site, what!): Cramerdev, Inc. http://cramerdev.com/employment, hr@cramerdev.com

Software Engineer, you'd be working in Rails mostly, but we also have PHP properties. We prefer generalists, and aren't afraid of wacky ideas or horribly new untested technology.

User Interface Designer, we want inspired and usable design period. You'd be working with this cat: http://iamdanielmarino.com/

All you have to do is impress us. Here's some stuff we've been up to: http://www.crunchbase.com/company/diyseo - do it yourself seo with tons of background workers, clean idiomatic js, and beautiful design. Rails. http://www.mriprotocols.org/ - a github for MRI technicians and their crazy $500k machines. Rails. http://www.arearugs.com/ - you know, where you get you some area rugs :) PHP

At the "cram", whose shortened name I just made up, we enjoy balancing work with life and making both devs and clients happy. I mean, extraordinarily happy. We hang out on Skype all day and do the work that is real, meaningful work, and not just some job. Excellence is expected.

Product Engineers - Conshohocken - PA Same as the last time around Monetate is hiring - Conshohocken (Philly suburb). We have hired people who found us here - these threads are great. We're a SAAS provider of testing, targeting and personalization tools (i.e. segmentation, A/B testing, MVT) to internet retailers. We've got existing high-volume customers. We're small, profitable, and we're growing fast. We're hiring e…

Where is PA?

PA could be Palo Alto - except for the city name "Conshohocken." Which almost sounds like a verb - like something you might say after getting a parking ticket on University Ave. I can see "Conshohocken PA" generating a parser error.

Information Retrieval Engineer - New York Were urgently looking for engineers who have some background in information retrieval, lucene/solr etc. A senior role at venture backed startup opening up a new office in NYC so you would be part of an early team. We already have a product in the market and customers/revenue! Lots of perks - good salary, equity, unlimited vacations etc. More here: http://platform.newscred.com…

Just out of interest: How does unlimited vacation work? I guess you can buy more days of holiday with your salary?

Combined with perpetual crunch time, it has the potential to be an anti-perk (since then you won't ever get paid for those days).

Java/Flash/Automation Engineers (and more) - Redwood City (SF Bay Area), CA, USA

EA2D (http://ea2d.com)

We're a new division of EA focused on bringing big-name titles to the browser. Think Halo on Facebook, but with EA titles. We work in small, cross-functional teams, so each engineer has a huge impact on game and systems design. We're autonomous of EA, so we can use the tools we want without all the red tape (GitHub, AWS, choice of Mac/Linux/Windows, etc.), and the stack that fits our model best (Flash+Java+Cassandra+EC2 on Facebook to start). And we're a new division, so you can help define our studio culture and processes.

Of course, being part of a large company has its advantages: nice hardware, excellent comp., onsite gym+soccer+basketball+volleyball, great food, free games, and more.

For the full listing of jobs, see http://www.ea2d.com/jobs/

Bonus points for gamers. Double points for mad foosball skills.
