London - UK

Disclaimer: I'm a developer myself, I made this list out of necessity while looking for a job in London last month.

Last "Who is Hiring June 2012" didn't have any jobs in London!

http://roundabout.io

The list is far from comprehensive, but if you're a developer in London you should definitely have a look at it, there are more than 30 startups listed, and not all of them post in this thread.

Quirky.com - Full Time - NYC

Quirky is a social product development company where people from all around the world submit invention ideas to our website. With the help of our passionate community, we select the best ideas each week to develop together and try to bring them to market. If an idea actually makes it, then everyone who helped along the way gets a piece of the pie. You can find our products at retailers such as Target and Bed Bath & Beyond.

Quirky is a rails shop, and we work with lots of fun technologies like AWS, mongo, iOS and heroku to name a few. We're a small team that works on lots of big, fun and interesting problems. We just moved into a brand new, fully custom office space in Chelsea (might be the coolest office you'll find in NYC). Oh and we also had a reality show on the Sundance Channel last year.

We're looking to hire rockstar rails, front end and back end developers. More details here: http://quirky.theresumator.com/apply/

If interested, shoot me an email greg at quirky dot com. Relocation is available for well qualified candidates (I moved from SF to NYC to work here!)

Berlin, Germany ("H1B") - StorageRoom - JavaScript

We’re building a cloud-based Content Management platform that’s targeted at developers. We just received funding from prestigious VCs (unannounced).

You say Content Management sucks? That’s exactly what we think, and we see a huge opportunity to do something completely different that plays well with HTML5/JS and native mobile apps.

The initial version of our platform is already used by hundreds of customers, from major global media companies to small development agencies.

It’s now time to throw away the prototype of our API and to build a high-performance solution, from scratch. We want to bring aboard a person who will develop the new JavaScript frontend, public JS SDK and JavaScript server component with us (yes, we’re developers too!).

We’re looking for someone who already has a solid experience in writing and testing JavaScript applications and that has a good knowledge of the JavaScript ecosystem (CoffeeScript, Node, Rhino, ClojureScript) and its frameworks (Backbone, Spine etc). You should have a good Computer Science foundation and an authentic interest in working with JavaScript. Experience in functional programming languages will be considered a plus. One of the main jobs besides developing will be to involve the JS community with talks at conferences and interesting prototypes.

Interested? Please send your GitHub account and any other interesting links about you to sascha@thriventures.com.

P.S.: The only language in the company is English and living in Berlin without any knowledge of German isn't a problem at all.

Freedom Freight

Rails Developer, iOS Developer

Freedom Freight is "Uber for trucks". We match shippers (businesses who need freight shipped to their customers by the truckload) with available trucks through live GPS data, similar to Uber's on-demand model of matching consumers with cabs.

We're applying modern technology to an old school market. We're looking to bring Rails and iOS developers on the team. We're a small, flat company and this is a great opportunity to join a great team trying to conquer one of the largest markets in the US.

We're also looking for engineering interns.

If you think Freedom Freight would be the perfect fit, send an email with your info to sean@freedomfreightusa.com
