22K full-time in London? That's a typo, right? Or are you looking for recent grads or interns?

I doubt it's a typo. Junior developers are starting on very low rates in the UK these days. I met a mid-level PHP Developer working for a major firm in the UK a few weeks ago, and he was earning £14k!

Famo.us

Fulltime in SoMa, San Francisco, CA. No remote.

We're building the equivalent of Cocoa/CocoaTouch/Android SDK for web applications. If you are a software developer with a passion for building operating systems, high performance graphics, application frameworks and software engineering tools come join us, because we're working on something big getting attention from some of the biggest names in Silicon Valley (although we can't yet say who).

Experience with functional programming and especially functional reactive programming is a huge plus. Our main language right now is in JavaScript, because that is what runs in the browser. However, we're still very small and use of only JavaScript isn't set in stone. We're also considering languages particularly well-suited for metaprogramming as we build out our developer tooling (e.g. Clojure & ClojureScript).

Veer West / FormAssembly.com - FULL-TIME - REMOTE / H1B OK.

Web Developer

We’re looking for a talented and passionate developer to help improve and expand our web-based application, FormAssembly. The ideal candidate can craft code that’s robust and easy to maintain, switch between back-end and front-end development, and keep usability and user experience in mind at all times. You’ll work on our LAMP stack, as well as new projects with a clean slate, for which you’ll help pick the best technologies, architecture, and tools. You’ll work autonomously or with the team depending on the project, and will get many opportunities to share, teach, and learn from your coworkers.

UX Engineer

Designing user interactions around web form building and data collection is a real challenge. If you’ve ever had to fill out a form online and cursed at your screen, you know what we’re trying to improve. We’re looking for a front-end developer / user experience designer. You have the technical skills (JavaScript, HTML, CSS) that allow you to imagine, design, and implement new features. You pay attention to details, and you’re an empathetic person, capable of evaluating your work with the eye of a typical user.

Sys-Admin

We’ve grown and we need a dedicated System Administrator to maintain, monitor, and improve our high-availability infrastructure. You should be familiar with the LAMP stack and software like nginx and memcache, as well as monitoring and deployment tools. You’ll be responsible for maintaining the highest security standards, improving and testing our disaster recovery plan, recommending and implementing infrastructure upgrades, and shaving off milliseconds after milliseconds from our application’s response time.

------

Your work will get in front of tens of thousands of users and help make data collection easier for a lot of people, from schools enrolling students to large corporations improving their business processes.

We're confortable working with remote workers and have sponsored successfully H1B applicants in the past.

Ribbon: Rails Devs

Full-Time in San Francisco only. No Remote, No H1B.

San Francisco, CA

Ribbon is a payments company that is built on a simple premise: let's keep the buyer where they already are and make the transaction occur inside of whatever platform they're on.

Going off of that, we have built integrated in-stream payments inside of Facebook (http://f.cl.ly/items/3X080L3U1e2I2Q2O3d2u/screeny-for-fb.png), Twitter, YouTube, and an embedded option to bring it back to your own website (https://www.ribbon.co/button).

You can think of us as an eCommerce multi-platform version of Square. We must be well-designed on every front, from the UI/UX to the backend payments infrastructure. Well-funded and at the beginning of a very big & fun problem.
