We have very interesting data visualization and UI problems and your work will reach millions of users. We've also released a bunch of open source projects.

• You obsess over the design of everyday things, from door knobs to teapots or light switches.

• You have a passion for software and desire to change the world.

• You have excellent implementation skills, including deep expertise in Javascript (jQuery).

• You enjoy working on tricky UI problems with equally smart people.

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 tool that makes it simple to transfer anything between phones and desktop computers. Join us on our exciting journey, where every day breeds new ideas and more possibilities. We are young, but headed by experienced engineers and looking for fast-lear…

I'm not looking at the moment, but just wanted to say kudos for your approach to remote work!

I'm currently living mostly in rural France (with a month or two per year in Kuala Lumpur), working full time with a Cambridge-based startup that's even more accommodating of remote workers (and that's the only way I could possibly do this) -- many of us on the team travel & keep working, as well, which at one point resulted in us having one dev in GMT-8, one in GMT-5, one in GMT, and one in GMT+8 (!).

There are some things that are more difficult with remote dev, mostly communication-related -- though if we all have good internet connectivity, we get by quite well -- but I've become fond of the hidden bonuses, like "relay" programming -- basically, pair programming where you only overlap for one part of the task, and the person who started it (in an earlier time zone) isn't the same one who finishes it. It's always easy to do maintenance, deployments, etc. at "odd" hours -- you just pick the person in a time zone where the hour isn't so odd. And generally our communication is good enough (and we share tasks enough) that no one is ever stuck sitting around waiting for X to wake up and come online.

So best of luck to you, and I hope more startups will follow your lead!
