How exactly does one apply for this position? Your website doesn't mention anything about Chicago.

REMOTE possible for the "right" candidate?

Not impossible, although right now our engineering is entirely in one office so that wouldn't be our preference. Feel free to send me an email if you're interested and I can ask around about making this work.

Thanks! That's why I love HN job board - if the posting doesn't strictly mention "no remote", it is almost always possible to negotiate.

The grand prize for the competition is a 12 month placement in a minimum wage job?

Minimum wage is £5.03 - on a 35 hour week, that's £9k a year. I you're over 20, that rises to £12k/year. So, better than minimum wage. If you have several years experience, it's probably not the job for you. If, however, you've just left school or are taking a break from university - I think it's a pretty fairly paid way to get your foot in the industry.

My internship in Silicon Valley pays double that.

You want a self-starter who's passionate about your vision and willing to work for (you've now erased it) minimum wage?

Typical capitalist idiocy.

Baltimore, MD; Reston, VA; - Videology - FULL TIME, INTERN (H1B maybe if already in US)

Videology Group - http://www.videologygroup.com/

Internet advertising startup looking primarily for server-side Java developers (if your Java is rusty but you're good, drop us a note anyway) to work in either of our offices in the locations above. I was working for a start-up called LucidMedia Networks (hence the "lmn" in the e-mail address below), which got acquired by Videology. The Baltimore office is a .NET shop, but the Reston office is Java on *nix (Mac for dev, Linux in production, and no plans to use Microsoft anything for development). Our stack is Java on Spring with MySQL and some NoSQL stores on AWS. We have some big projects in the works involving big data and volume as we scale globally and across mediums (video, mobile, etc.). Currently, our Reston platform alone handles 4 billion requests a day.

Contact me directly at sahil_lmn@yahoo.com.

I actually got hired through a HN "Who is Hiring" thread, and I hired an intern through these threads. These things do work!
