Disclaimer: Forgive me for posting here. I just want to turn this monthly job posting thing into an everyday thing (same high-quality jobs, same amazing talent pool). If you're interested, read on. Otherwise ignore this post.

====== Pitch: ======

Do you enjoy and look forward to the monthly HN job posting?

Do you (as an employer) normally find great talent through HN?

Do you wish that you didn't have to wait an entire month and could have access to the best jobs(employees) and the most talented network(employers) all the time and at any time?

If you answered YES to all three of these questions, then visit the link below and share your details:

=======================================

https://www.surveymoz.com/s/109791NPJFT

=======================================

While you're there, invite some friends too and help grow an organic network of the most talented individuals seeking out the best jobs.

You will find me promoting this idea on HN only. This has been validated by numerous employers pointing out that HN users represent a very strong pool of talented individuals.

Sheffield, UK (possibly remote) - Delver - http://delver.io

We're hiring a developers to help bring powerful natural language querying to every dashboard and reporting system in the world.

We use Clojure day-to-day, but we'd be happy to talk to clever programmers with a background in other JVM or functional languages. NLP experience (academic or practical) would be great, but a CS background is a must. If you’ve been exposed to data warehousing and business intelligence systems in the past without being driven insane that's another plus.

Our team is based in Sheffield, Yorkshire – the greenest city in the UK, less than two hours from London. We have burritos – it's a real place – but we spend some time working remotely and we’d work to accommodate the right candidate anywhere in the UK.

Get in touch with me, Thom Lawrence at thom@delver.io if you'd like to chat.
