Sonar, a TechCrunch Disrupt finalist based in New York City, is building mobile apps that uncover the hidden connections you share with people nearby.

We're offering a paid engineering internship this fall, and we'll relocate the right candidate. We running Ruby, Riak, and Redis and we're looking for engineers who want to work the whole stack.

To apply, please send links to your github (or OSS hosted elsewhere), online profiles, and resume to "work@sonar.me"

Is any startup in the US taking interns from Canada? Good schools up north (UofT, W'loo, etc.) :)

As a Canadian (Tdot).. I know it can be relatively difficult to get a job down here in SF. I was lucky enough to go to a US school which gets me OPT for a year. Then I can issue myself a TN-1 or H1B. For Canadians.. try to get a TN-1!

I'm a Canadian who has worked in the US a number of times as an intern. J-1 visas were easy to get for me through my University career office and employer working together.

Ah neat! Do you know if this works for undergrads? And if the employer is a startup, does that add to the complexity?

P.S. This isn't for me, but for an undergrad I mentor.

http://Classroom.tv, we are located in Palo Alto, CA.

We want to educate as many people as possible, for free.

We are well funded. We don't care too much about the technologies you know today, but we care much more about your passions, and about your ability to learn fast (we do). We are using the traditional LAMP stack plus JS/JQuery.

And we pay. Our best people don't work for the money though. Email to talent@classroom.tv

I know plenty of bay-area startups hire undergraduate interns from the University of Waterloo (where I am).

I don't see it being a problem, though it's a little costly. You should contact a company like Cultural Vistas (http://www.culturalvistas.org/) who can get you the J-1 visa.

We're CommonPlace USA, of Anytown, USA -- Massachusetts more than anything, but we're mostly distributed.

We are building a web platform that will help save civic America from the decentralization of modern communication. We are looking for one of two candidates:

1) Ruby on Rails backend developer. Must be willing to dabble in Javascript here and there, but mostly looking for the Ruby/Rails/database/architecture work.

2) Front-end guy. We have an awesome designer, and want to get his ideas into our code base as quickly as possible. Requires the obvious HTML/CSS/Javascript. HAML/SASS (with some familiarity with Rails -- not too much) is greatly appreciated, but certainly not a requisite.

This internship would be paid. Definitely. And we're looking for dedicated people who can start soon!

My e-mail address is in my profile -- we'd love to hear from you :)

Yes. We're inPulse (YCW11) and we hire Canadians. Hell, we're 3/4 Canadian at the moment. We're in Mountain View, CA.

We're looking for embedded software devs, Android devs and web/ops people. If you want an internship in the bay area, we pay market rate plus hook you up with living expense subsidies, free flights, food, etc. Send me an email: eric AT getinpulse.com
