Burlingame, CA - Collaborative Drug Discovery (CDD) (https://www.collaborativedrug.com)

CDD is growing and financially stable. Our software helps scientists manage, analyze and collaborate around their drug discovery data (chemistry and biology). We are are in a great position to support the evolution towards more collaboration, specialization and distribution in a market that has been historically closed and secretive. The model has been successful with academic labs, small biotech startups, very large collaborations (like the Gates foundation TB initiative or MM4TB in Europe), and government agencies.

We just grew the software development team from 2 to 5 over the last 3 months bringing in some awesome people and are looking for at least one more full-stack software developer (https://www.collaborativedrug.com/pages/employment). As one of the core developers, you need to be comfortable working or interested in building expertise at every level of the stack.

The application is based on Rails but it is way more than a simple CRUD app. We have many projects involving web development, data visualization, data processing, scaling, security, privacy, usability and other software challenges to make our scientific application collaborative, engaging and rewarding. We are also starting working on an API.

It is perfectly OK if you do not have experience with any of the languages or technologies we currently use (Ruby/Rails/JS/MySQL/Solr...) as long as you can learn those quickly. CDD is a great place if you want to have a lot of impact and like to take on projects and responsibilities. We offer market salary and meaningful equity.

If you are interested, contact work@collaborativedrug.com, you will get an answer from one of the developers.

Kabbage leverages data sources such as Ebay and Amazon shopping activity, UPS shipping data, Facebook, Twitter, and dozens of other data sources to turn the lengthy and cumbersome 7+ week process of applying for a loan that often results in a “no”, into a seamless process that provides instant funding to businesses in less than 7 minutes.

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

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 already have a team for the backend and are now looking for an iOS developer who will create an iOS SDK and example applications.

We’re looking for someone who already has a solid experience in writing and testing iOS applications and that has a good knowledge of the iOS ecosystem and its frameworks (CoreData etc.). You should have a good Computer Science foundation and an authentic interest in working with Objective-C and Cocoa. One of the main jobs besides developing will be to involve the iOS 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.

Seven years minimum experience developing mobile apps? Seriously? I don't see why PalmOS or WinCE experience can be criteria for minimum experience these days.
