PhotoShelter - New York, NY

PhotoShelter provides tools to help photographers display, market, sell, and distribute their photos. We're a small company with a laid-back atmosphere (we love dogs and cookouts) located right on Union Square, in the heart of the city.

We're looking for a back-end engineer to help grow our product. Rather than any buzzwords, we value folks who are passionate about and take pride in their craft. Our back-end stack includes PHP, a bit of C, PostgreSQL, Sphinx and Memcached but we'd welcome inquiries from anyone with experience in designing and writing distributed systems, systems programming, and back-end development in general.

Our diverse staff includes veteran engineers from HotJobs and Yahoo, one of Computerworld's 40 Under 40 tech innovators, and even a well-known concert photographer. We offer competitive salaries, stock options, bonuses, great benefits, and try to grab dinner together (on the company!) every few weeks.

If you're interested, shoot an e-mail to devjobs@photoshelter.com. Thanks!

Email me for more details, or any questions at all; nathan@gravitywell.co.uk

Sporting Solutions (Part of sporting index group) - based in London (near Waterloo), UK - FULL TIME

We are currently in the process of building out our next generation Cloud based sports pricing platform. This allows sports traders in other gaming companies to use our real time quantitative models over the web to predict the outcome of a wide range of sports events in real time. You can find out more about what we're doing here: http://www.sportingsolutions.com/products/c2e

We're looking for great web developers, web ops and customer integration engineers to join us. Core technology stack is .net but we're happy using whatever tools help us get the job done including c#, f#, node.js, scala, erlang, mongodb, rabbit mq and redis to name a few.

London, UK

FULLTIME or INTERN

REMOTE or onsite in our London offices, or some hybrid arrangement.

We are building CopyCopy (http://www.copycopy.cc/) - a cross-platform productivity tool that makes it simple to transfer anything between phones and desktop computers.

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 (iPhone and Mac)

• JavaScript (web frontend work and browser extensions)

• Redis

We are a young startup headed by experienced engineers, and moving fast towards the first launch. 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 full-timers and interns (paid).

Equity on top of salary for the right candidate.

We are happy to consider remote workers who are located in timezones +/-3 hours from London or you can work in our new North West London offices.

Apply now to find out about our "secret sauce" that will make CopyCopy the simplest way of transferring anything between devices.

Just send your CV to jobs@copycopy.cc now!

We're looking for Django developers.

Remote work is fine, but Providence, RI area is preferable (or, a willingness to consider relocation eventually; though to be clear, for the right person this isn't a requirement at all).

We're a small design driven development company working exclusively on Django projects. Very flexible work environment, bonus options, etc. We are not a funded startup, we're bootstrapping ourselves. We have a large fluffy dog as the office mascot!

Must enjoy, or tolerate, a wide variety of musical genres and styles.

Email peter at projectevolution.com if you're interested!
