I really wish we could figure out a way to stop posting these on Saturday, which guarantees the hiring thread won't be on the front page on a weekday.

I could be wrong, but I think Saturday is a great day for these threads. The work week is mainly relevant to people in 9-to-5 jobs. If I were looking for a job (I'm not) I would generally avoid doing the search during the week. Why? At least on Wall Street, people get fired if their bosses figure out that they're looking for jobs. Once you start searching, you've effectively quit as they see it. That said, I'm coming…

You mean like a hiring manager | HR person | future coworker who might post here? I could see arguments going either way about weekend posting. At least it should be at the top of the ask HN list for a while since it is a bit lower churn for people not wanting it to disappear because of the weekend post. etc.

BigDoor: http://www.bigdoor.com/

We're a gamification platform – we make it easy for anyone to add fun, relevant loyalty programs to their site or app. Lots of people are focused on badges and leaderboards – and we do that – but we consider that the simple, boring stuff. We're way ahead of that. We're also working with some major brands.

Positions:

2 x developer: Python, Django, JavaScript.

1 x sysadmin: Linux, Apache, MySQL.

1 x DBA: MySQL.

2 x tester: Python a big plus.

1 x content manager: Help our partners create and maintain their virtual economies.

Rockefeller Center NYC, onsite: #1 looking for #2

Bootstrapped prop ultra low latency trading firm (as opposed to a firm which originally had investors and later kicked them out), and I'm willing to cut significant equity. see http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=2835656 for some discussion of what I do.

I'm not a traditional finance guy, and I'm definitely not looking for a banking drone. Most of those tasks are handled by cron anyway. Sanctity of weekends are preserved.

The ideal candidate: mastery, to the level of obsession, with C/Python/coreutils; insatiable curiosity; inquisitive to a fault; chutzpah to challenge every assumption and assertion; calm under pressure; and desire to be involved in every aspect of the business.

Windonauts need not apply (I currently use 2 27" iMacs in the office)

Excited? intransigence123@gmail.com
