Looking for a Solr + DB dev to help take www.cleanplates.com to the next level (MongoDB? JSON API? Rails/Python?). Off-hour work is fine -- I plan to be in Austin most of next month, so we can meet in person to collaborate / co-work too. >> niles at cleanplates dot com

#14* Currently a bootstrapped venture, self funded * Revenue generating with extremely low burn. * Killer product, great marketing, solid position (#1 for several competitive keywords on Google)
Us: * Full-stack web-applications engineerings * Ruby on Rails and Django users * Amazon Web Services, Ubuntu * Actually Agile development (Continuous Integration, Automated Tests, GIT, multiple daily deployments)
Your ideal expertise is any of the above + some combination of the following: * Flash/Flex client development (++good on this) * Android or IPhone development (++ awesome if you've done video development on mobile) * Solid Design capabilities (+ for Photoshop, Illustrator) * Solid front-end Javascript/CSS (Haml/Sass even better) * We are a completely virtual org, but + for Cambridge/Boston area
We love T-shaped people. Broad knowledge in a lot of technologies, and deep expertise in a core few. And generally unafraid of learning new things. If you like to own the whole stack, you'll fit right in.

#16If you have experience writing mobile applications for iPhone, Android or BlackBerry (or Windows Mobile), we want to talk to you. We run FaceCash, an up-and-coming mobile payment system that was just deployed all over Stanford last week and is growing quickly.

#17I have worked on the site since 2006 so I have some experience with freelancing, if you work 1-3 hours per day you can make a nice profit. However it will take some time to build yourself a reputation on the site, so don't expect to make a lot of money from the start.

#18This might be a good place for a link to the HN Contractors spreadsheet: https://spreadsheets.google.com/ccc?key=0AlD_6iEb8Ed9dGs3clV... It was discussed here: http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=1262467 And turned into a website: http://hnhackers.com (discussion for that here: http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=1262467 )
I don't understand the point of this site. A list of random programmers isn't a very good way for a potential employer to find qualified applicants.

#19We're looking for a freelance jr. web designer & developer to contract work out to on a regular basis (ideally local, but will definitely consider remote). HN probably isn't our target market, but if you know a new-ish front-end dev, or are looking to pick up a bit of extra cash, look us up.
Note: if you rock socks, don't sweat all the application cruft, we just wanted to weed people out (please mention this HN post).
