Google - Madison, WI. Sorry, no remote work, but Google does sponsor visas. All levels of experience welcome. We've recently hired an ACM fellow, as well as a new college grad. Of course Google is hiring. So, why I posting this? Every time I tell someone I'm working at Google in Madison, they're shocked that there's an office in Madison, and I often hear people complaining about the lack of interesting technical work…

By any chance can a technical/coding interview be done completely offline?

And preferably with more relevant tasks, rather than asking to come up with Knuth–Morris–Pratt algorithm on the spot, whereas Knuth, Morris and Pratt spent months of researching.

Versus - Berlin/Germany - Node.js Top 5 reasons why you should move to Berlin, now: 1. Lowest livings costs with highest quality of living. Stay in gorgeous, perfectly renovated apartments in pre-WWII residential buildings with high ceilings, right in the middle of the center and pay a fraction of costs of any other capital (even cheaper than any Eastern European capital). No need for a car—Berlin has one of the dens…

> no need to learn German, everyone speaks English!

That's only in the startup scene, really. Most tech companies' primary language is still German, and the English proficiency of people you need to interact with in day-to-day things (post office, grocery shopping, etc.) widely varies. Some people (e.g. at the unemployment agency) even outright refuse speaking English.

A friendly suggestion: if you are interested to work with (recruit or apply to) someone you are already connected to but hesitate to ask for whatever reason it may be, Jobrupt (http://www.jobrupt.com) may help you to make the first step towards her/him. It's a free small utility inspired by some form of matchmaking and it has proven useful for some small circle. I hope it helps some more people, so give it a try.

Apportable - San Francisco, CA. Experienced folks, new grads, and interns all welcome.

Ever try to port a native iOS app to Android? What if Xcode compiled your Objective-C source code to run on Android automatically, with no changes required? Our platform makes this a reality for thousands of mobile developers. And we’re growing fast.

In just one week since its launch, over 1 million users installed Dots on Android. Dots was developed on iOS using the Objective-C cocos2d-iphone game engine. Without writing single line of Java, Betaworks used Apportable to compile it for Android, where it become the #5 most popular app. We deal primarily with developers like these -- top iOS game developers -- by giving them technology they want.

We're growing quickly (team of 40, mostly engineers) and are looking to hire another software engineer to join our platform team. We're based in San Francisco and are backed by YC, Google Ventures, and other prominent investors. Experience with Objective-C, OpenGL ES, and other compiled languages will be helpful.

If this sounds interesting and you're ready to change the way that mobile apps are developed, email us at jobs+hn@apportable.com. Learn more at http://www.apportable.com/

Allahabad, India. http://www.khitchdee.com Apprentice.

We're interested in music, teaching and building gadgets and we have solid experience in all three. We're a slow, long-term project that's trying to establish a beachhead for distinctly Indian engineering. In Indian music there is a tradition of Gharana. We're trying to adapt that tradition to engineering which is why we're seeking an apprentice. Qualifications might include a bachelors in computer science or engineering or in electrical engineering and a masters in a similar field. An excellent academic record is a good sign as is a keen interest in music. People who are disciplined and like to challenge the status quo would match well with us. Your level of experience does not matter too much one way or the other.

We pay you a pretty good salary and give you excellent equity. The position is open to everyone (not just Indians), but it's based in a small, rather sleepy town in north India.

Email us at rohit@khitchdee.com.
