Ask HN: Who is hiring? (April 2013)

Quixey is The Search Engine for Apps. Imagine a world where you can find the perfect app that does exactly what you want, when you want it – we’re building that world.

Quixey powers app search for major manufacturers, carriers, search engines and web-sites across the globe. We’re well funded, backed by world-class investors and power nearly 100 million queries per month.

In the past 2 years we've grown from 5 to 60 people. We currently have 15 open positions - 8 in engineering and the rest split between product, business development and recruiting. Hopefully you can come join us.

We practice Agile/Scrum and most of our code is in Java and Python. Our infrastructure is based on AWS and our stack includes open source software such as Linux, nginx, Hadoop, SQL-lite and Kafka.

CrowdTwist provides the most advanced multi-channel Customer Relationship & Loyalty Platform on the planet for leading brands such as Pepsi, The X Factor USA, Miami Dolphins, Sony Music, Zumiez and more.

We're looking for talented engineers to focus on the client-side aspects of our apps. Our team is currently building the next generation of our products, with a focus on front-end architecture and responsive design.

We are creating a universal loyalty currency, akin to AmEx points, that users can spend on virtual and physical goods. We are growing rapidly, and have around 3 million active users each day across around 500 mobile applications.

We have been actively targeting the Android mobile market, and just recently released our SDK for iOS. We are in need of the most help from a couple of talented engineers to help maintain and extend these SDKs.

If you are more interested in either front or backend web development, or more of a generalist, we are definitely interested in talking to you as well.

You'd be joining a small but very talented and tight-knit team of developers working at all levels of the stack, from postgres up through rails and into the platforms I mentioned above. From my own personal experience so far, the environment here is amazingly hacker-friendly. You will be able to ship code early and often with zero red tape, be given a very large amount of autonomy, and feel your impact on the company every day.
