Earlier quoted context omitted.

How similar is Blue card to Green card? How easy it is to change employers in EU (But I guess, that would depend on particular country, Germany in this case). Btw, wish you all the best in your recruiting endeavours!

Thanks for the kind words :) For the Blue Card, you can change employers as much as you want because it's attached to the employee rather than the employer. Further, depending on the country, after two or three years, you can then legally take work in any other EEA country (except the UK, Ireland and Denmark, all of whom opted out of the Blue Card program). There are some technicalities involved, but those are the ba…

Seems like a good program. Thanks for sharing.

Limelight Networks, Seattle, WA or San Francisco, CA

Do you want to work with the team that created an application named by O’Reilly as one of the "Top 50 Most Usable Rich Internet Application"? If you do, this job is for you.

We are looking for a client-side developer who is passionate about every pixel, every screen, every user interaction to continue to extend Limelight’s Video Platform Solution’s product offering. You must have a passion for learning the latest technologies and thrive in a fast-paced and exciting environment.

Limelight Networks, Inc. (Nasdaq: LLNW) is the content delivery partner for thousands of entertainment, technology, enterprise, and government entities around the globe. Our customers include some of the greatest companies in the world: Netflix, HBO, Amazon, Pokemon and thousands more. If you have ever watched video or read a web page on the Internet, chances are that they were delivered using Limelight technology.

Our team began as a start-up in Pioneer Square here in Seattle, and were acquired in 2010. The acquisition has gone well, with no turnover in the development team as a result, and we are growing our team. We still like to keep the office as informal and start-uppy feeling as legally possible. Pretty much as long as you wear clothes, can handle inflatable palm trees and out-of-season holiday decorations, and can put on your professional face when needed, you'll be fine.

San Francisco, CA: Chute (www.getchute.com/jobs)

We're looking for a front end lead, and a senior backend developer. Our stack is mostly Rails, with a few services written in Node on the backend. Ideal candidate also has some Scala experience as we're starting to look into that direction to replace some of the Node components we have.

Our frontend is being rebuilt using Backbone.js and Marionette.js. Ideally, we'd love someone with experience using these tools (or similar) who also has some familiarity on the backend. You should be just as happy writing code as code reviewing and mentoring other developers.

You can email me directly at ctide at getchute dot com for more info on these roles.

Amobee -- Silicon Valley -- H1B, Intern, Full-time

I'm the technical lead at Amobee on our PULSE 3D platform, looking to disrupt the way we consume and create mobile advertising. We're looking for developers on HTML5, WebGL, iOS, and Android to build the next generation of rich media as well as touch-based content creation tools from the ground up.

We believe that ads should actually be fun; as fast, interactive and personalized as the best games and apps. That's why we built the world's first 3D platform for display advertising. Our startup, AdJitsu, was acquired by Amobee almost a year ago. Our team continues to operate like an autonomous startup, with the added benefit of our parent company's resources.

Our PULSE 3D platform combines WebGL (or native OpenGL on iOS) with HTML5 to create a designer-friendly environment for building interactive experiences powered by programmable shaders. You can have a look at some of our ads here: http://amobee.com/3d

As a startup within a startup (we're a team of six people including three engineers with a lot of autonomy), you'll have the chance to own and solve problems such as:

* Build the next generation of realtime rendering and user interaction on mobile * Rethink content creation tools, from the ground up, for multi-touch interfaces * Design immersive, sensor-driven user experiences for clients * Analyze billions of data points from user interaction

We touch everything from SIMD assembly and fragment shaders, to Hadoop and Pig, and almost everything in between. Objective C, C++, HTML 5, Javascript, WebGL, Python, git and more are tools we use every day.

Our client include brands like BMW, Samsung, Autodesk, and Nokia. Our team brings experience from Apple, Cooliris, Dreamworks, Microsoft, Namco Bandai, NVIDIA, Ubisoft, and more. We're backed by the likes of Accel, Sequoia, and Singapore Telecom.

If this whets your appetite, get in touch with me at markw at amobee dot com and let's talk!
