Startup Software Engineer - Vancouver, Canada (remote development is fine)

Sokanu

Sokanu is a social learning platform aimed at helping individuals find their passion in life. The idea came about last year when I was finishing high school and I noticed that the majority of my classmates had no particular idea as to what they were going to do with the rest of their lives. Most people ended up taking generic courses at the same universities. Around the world, people struggle with the question, "what am I going to do with the rest of my life?".

So we decided to start a company with the focus of solving that problem. Our goal is to be the place on the Internet that people go to find the career that matches their passion.

We are looking for a C# developer to help us finish our alpha product (70% complete) and continue as the leading engineer to build the company into the future. Full job description available here: http://jobs.startupnorth.ca/job/startup-c-software-engineer-...

If you would like more info or would like to apply, please send an email to jobs@sokanu.com Thanks so much!

Java - Engineer, Luxembourg, Europe.

We are searching at least 3 more developers in the fields of search & automatic content/site extraction, crawling, duplicate content, news/spam detection.

We do content fetching and aggregation (news,message boards, blogs, ...) for market research institutes, media analytics companies, etc...

We are still relative small (mostly Harvard, ETH Zurich, and TU Munich graduates), so you are still able to actively shape our company.

If you are from abroad, and want to experience a different culture for a few months/years (some even stayed here their entire life ;)) in a small french/german/english speaking country, why not join?

We can also offer internships for a few months (probably 6).

Just drop me (thibaut) a mail (or call) if you are interested or need more information!

NYC (Chelsea) - Chicago - SFBay Matasano. Job title: Scary Story Told To Young Software Developers By Their Parents To Get Them To Go To Bed On Time. In one not-too-atypical week last year, our team attacked the messaging front end of a financial exchange, used a GNU Radio to decode an RF protocol used by a major utility (we later cheated and used JTAG to turn their own hardware into a modem), reverse engineered and…

Well, I don't recall saying that, but i did tell "First Blood" that "I'm not in here with you, you are in here with me".

But seriously, check us out. Do you enjoy drilling down to find out how things really work? Are you a puzzle kind of person? Do you think you can crack the pale apple? Perhaps you would like to work with "Cupcake", "One Ping Only", or maybe "Quiet, Redhead, Deadly". Tell Tom I told you to give him a call.

Another perk is you get a laptop loaded with stuff that would be illegal in some european countries. (Lots of it is open source, so relax).

And yes, First Blood totally got me with the swimming pool on the twelfth floor.
