We are a profitable startup developing a SaaS marketing solution for franchise networks. Small team, growing company.
If you're interested, send me an email. email: yannick.mahe@alveos.fr
Month after month, the same companies list the same opening here (with probably 30% shift.) I would love to know if the companies that relist aren't getting applicants, aren't getting the right applicants, have a high turnover or are (hopefully) just continuing to grow. Also, are any HNers getting hired from these threads? Success stories are the most needed ingredient to remind everyone that hiring is happening.
SCRUFF, one of the largest and fastest-growing gay social networks, is hiring a senior engineer for its New York office.
SCRUFF is not a traditional software startup - we think there are a few reasons why working at SCRUFF is a one-of-a-kind experience:
• You will get to make consumer software that lots of people use.
Consumer software is by far one of the most fun businesses to be in. Consumer software is easy to explain, you can share it immediately with your friends, and you get to apply both technical and design skills. Business-to-business software is well and good, but there's a reason why we aren't writing automated trading platforms for hedge funds :) SCRUFF has been fortunate to find a market that is both growing quickly and very excited about our product. When you come on board, the code you write will affect hundreds of thousands of guys every day.
• Our #1 priority for you is your professional development
Most startups want engineers to start producing shipping code on day one. We would much rather take the time to allow you to explore our codebase, do deep dives into the technologies we use, and ultimately write great production code in weeks or months. We feel mentorship is one of the most critical aspects of enjoying your job.
We also strive to practice good core software engineering principles, because we believe in the long-run it will make the code you write better, bring more benefits to our members, and be most helpful for you in your career. The ideal candidate should come in with a healthy ego and a positive attitude, be open to critical feedback, and be eager to develop more in the practice of professional software development.
• You will touch every piece of code we have.
Our engineering team is small. There are no client-side/server-side functional divides. You will be responsible for the servers (we have a lot). You will be responsible for the client (iOS and Android). Your brain will be stretched in new and confounding ways. But in the process you will build a set of skills that will form the core of all software innovation of the next 10 years. What we teach you at SCRUFF about mobile development will be like learning HTML in 1995 or GUI programming in 1985.
• Parties are our business, and now they're yours, too.
No, seriously. Lots of startups will talk about their Friday night beer busts, but at SCRUFF we take it to a new level. SCRUFF partners with promoters and events all across the world. As a SCRUFF team member, you will become part of the SCRUFF brand, and will have opportunities to represent us at events both locally and across the country.
• New York City.
SCRUFF is based in Manhattan, the most amazing city in the world. Everyone you've ever met will want to come and visit. Your other friends who work at banks will complain to you about their schedules while you are busy planning SCRUFF parties into your workday(night?) Startup networking events will be blocks away, every day. You'll have access to the most restaurants, the most culture, and an endless stream of new people to meet. We love New York, and think you will love it too.

At Kicksend, we're building apps that empower non-technical people to send & receive photos, videos, and other stuff with the people they know.
It's a directly consumer product with a lot of interesting challenges around engineering (how to push large files in realtime at scale), design (we're serious about it), and data-driven, highly measured product design and development.
We're hiring product engineers on:
- iOS
- Android
- Mac Desktop
- Windows Desktop
We're also hiring folks to help with:
- Inbound Marketing
- QA
We're VC-backed and YC S11. It's a very small team, with most folks wearing many hats. Relocation provided to the Bay Area if we decide to hire you.

Our mission is to provide a world-class education to anyone, anywhere. We already have millions of students learning every month, and we're growing quickly.
Our students answer over 2 million math exercise problems per day, all generated by our open source exercise generation framework (http://github.com/khan/khan-exercises, http://ejohn.org/blog/khan-exercise-rewrite/), and Sal's videos have been viewed over 99 million times. We're just getting started feeding this data we're collecting back into the product to help our users learn more (http://david-hu.com/2011/11/02/how-khan-academy-is-using-mac...). If you're interested in data, analytics, and education, this is a dream gig.
Plus, it's one of the highest educational impact positions you can imagine. We're hiring all types of devs -- mobile, frontend, backend, whatever you want to call yourself. Big plans ahead.
Booking.com is always on the lookout for good developers, DBA's and sysadmins on-site in the center of Amsterdam. I'm a developer there and relocated over there about a year ago and have been very happy with it. We have people from all over the world relocating to work with us and are very well set up to handle relocation / visa issues.
It's a rapidly growing company that represents the biggest chunk of the Priceline group of companies where problems that look relatively mundane on paper become much more interesting due to the scale and growth levels we're operating at.
We use Perl for almost everything with a MySQL backend and Git for development. We get our changes out really fast, it's rare for your code not to be on our live systems within hours of you pushing it.
We have a relatively flat hierarchy with minimum levels of bureaucracy since we're very data driven and have a clear goal: helping our customers. Everything we do is aimed at solving problems for our customers, if it doesn't help our customers we're not interested in doing it.
You don't have to know Perl in advance to be a developer there. We've hired people who've done C, Java etc. before.
I'd be happy to answer any questions at avarab@gmail.com and/or forward your resume. http://booking.com/jobs also has some good information.

FULLTIME or INTERN
REMOTE or onsite in our London offices, or some hybrid arrangement.
We are CopyCopy (http://www.copycopy.cc/) - a startup company creating a cross-platform productivity tool that will make it simple to transfer information between phones and desktops.
We use:
• Java (for Android, BackberryOS, GWT and in our homegrown lightweight Java server)
• C++ (for Win32, Qt, Android NDK and Objective-C++)
• Python (occasionally) to string bits together
• Objective-C (in the future)
• JavaScript (web frontend work and browser extensions)
• Redis
We are young and fast-moving. Our product is in its early stages but moving fast towards the first release. You will have the opportunity of working on self-contained projects from spec to release to consumers. Our Git repositories, code review and Project Management tools are geared towards remote working and we are open to flexible working conditions. We urgently need interns (paid), longer term student placements, and especially full-timers.
We are happy to consider remote workers who are located in timezones +/-3 hours from London but being able to come into North West London often is a big plus.
