Boston (Somerville) - NGP VAN, Senior Developers

We've got a couple of positions open in our Boston area office (actually in Somerville, one block from the Davis Square T stop).

We build tools for progressives - Obama, the DNC, major labor unions, and liberal non-profits. Our tools are heavily used by everyone from volunteers down to primary campaign staff (and often the candidates themselves). We mostly focus on field organizing, fundraising, and online organizing, but if you've got a good idea about how to effect progressive change through technology, we have pretty solid market penetration for scaling it.

Our biggest apps are in .NET (one webforms/ADO, one MVC/EF, both up to date framework-wise), but we also work on Drupal sites, our iOS and Android apps, newer node.js services, and js clients that keep getting thicker, but in a good way.

More info at http://www.ngpvan.com/about/jobs/senior-developers - I know this has a jobs@ngpvan.com email, but I swear real people including me read everything that comes in.

Earlier quoted context omitted.

Working as a software engineer at a non-tech company would be a refreshing change of pace for a lot of people in tech. Could you elaborate a bit more on what exactly an engineer would do on a daily basis and what the size of the team currently is?

We are a tech company. We just don't look like one :) Tom (tptacek) always accuses me of not selling enough, so I'll give it a try. Your question is actually very open-ended. We have roughly 4,000 R&D employees, so you can imagine the work is very diverse across the company. Teams are roughly 4-8 people at the lowest level and group up into larger organizations organized by product type (equities, fixed income, etc.)…

How I wish Lakos's team was based somewhere in Europe... I think Meredith also works in that team.

The result is either mail order delivery of medication or a paper prescription that can be reimbursed at local pharmacies.

We're looking for a talented senior web developer with a backend focus. Someone who can head the technical team and act as system architectYou'll be comfortable with the LAMP stack, can work with HTML, CSS, JS, & PHP, understand MVC, and can cope with the idea of turning legacy code into something testable/maintainable.

It's a great company made up of people who care about their jobs and actually listen to/involve the technical members.

There is good coffee, a nice office, an openness to new ideas, and a strong work/life balance.

Paris, France - Viadeo

iOS developer, full time, we can help with H1B (equivalent for France) if needed

We're looking for another iOS developer to join our mobile team at Viadeo, in Paris.

About us:

You'll be working on making the Viadeo iOS application awesome, working closely together with the 2 iOS devs: my colleague, Malik and myself, Andrei. But also, you'll be working with the whole mobile team, composed of 13 other cool, brilliant, motivated people: Android/BlackBerry devs, backend devs, marketing, design, product people, one technical lead and a chief mobile officer.

From a technological perspective, we work with Objective-C, the different iOS frameworks, and we use Git/GitHub as our source code management system. We're keen on working fast, in an agile/SCRUM manner. We're keeping the concept of working like a "start-up within a start-up" and we're looking for another developer to join us and help us build the next versions of the Viadeo app.

About you:

You should have some previous experience in working with iOS, know your way around Core Data, be comfortable with Cocoa Touch (or at least be able to pick up its different aspects), understand the MVC pattern and apply it as much as possible in your projects. Speaking of which, it would be great if you have something we can look at, either previous projects or previous code. It would be awesome if you have a GitHub account. Also if you know and use Git.

Other than that, work well with others, be motivated and cool, cause you'll be joining a cool and motivated team.

About Viadeo:

You'll be working in a fast-growing, competitive, international company, in the field of professional social networking, which still has the spirit of a start-up. Go to http://corporate.viadeo.com/en/about-us/group-facts/ for more info. Download our Viadeo iOS app (https://itunes.apple.com/za/app/viadeo/id379428410?mt=8) to see how it looks. Check out viadeo.com for our website.

Did I mention we get a cooked lunch served at the company cantine every day, with a salad bar and Nutella chocolate cake desert (or fruit salad for the health conscious)? Also, free drinks, coffee and tea.

Get in touch with me if you have more questions or are interested in this position (also attach your CV): apatru [at] viadeoteam [dot] com
