We are: http://sucuri.net

Looking for an entry-level (junior) support person to help us out. Great way to get experience and work with some cool security projects (dealing with all types of malware, infected sites, etc).

What we are looking for? Someone that learns fast, loves to automate boring tasks, knows Linux / PHP (or shell scripting) and is fun to work with. Experience with WordPres/ Joomla/ Wiki and other popular web apps is a plus.

iPhone developer looking for iPhone app designer/artist (the latter more important than the former) for some part time remote work.

I'm a designer, I also do development.

Could you stick an email in your profile (both fields, I can't see the one that's most natural) or send email to the address in mine?

We make the Sooloos line of products. They compose a music management solution that currently sells in the high end market (luxury, hifi, audiophile, etc..)

Our product is far too expensive right now for most people. We are in the middle of executing a plan to create a budget appliance and a free piece of software to expand past our current markets. This requires some additional features that must be implemented to ensure success (social features, offline mobile players, more 'remote control' on devices people already own, etc..).

When we started, it was not possible to bring our product to the masses because the computer resources required to create a great experience were not common place. Thats why we built an appliance. The last 2 generations of hardware have been capable, so it's now possible to bring our vision to the masses.

We are hiring 4 developers, and here are some of the things we would like to see in developers:

c# (msft on windows & mono on osx, linux) opengl (windows and osx) c/c++ linux social networking experience server side experience client app experience ui sensibilities design sense iphone/ipad android a passion for music

The above are nice to haves, and not requirements. Smart, experienced, and passionate development history is more important.

Our work environment is very focused on fast execution, while providing a great lifestyle. Our team is spread out over the globe (NYC, SF, Bangkok, UK) and tiny (3 developers + 2 designers). We live inside the Meridian Audio umbrella, but we are responsible for the Sooloos line. You would work wherever you wanted to live. We have a small concentration in NYC, but NYC is not a requirement. Our management style is very relaxed and it will require you to be great while not being micromanaged. You must be a great communicator (in English), especially online. Fast typing and familiarity with online communication mechanisms is required.

We will also hire consultants to do a few projects we have been able to isolate as good for short term consultancy work.

You can read about our existing products in many reviews on the internet. Here are a few:
