We're recruiting in London, not quite a startup but a Research & Development lab for Yell with a startup vibe.

It looks like we might soon be heavy on great front-end people and that our hiring of back-end people is lagging, so we're becoming desperate for innovative people who know JVM related tech forwards and backwards (J2EE, Spring, Groovy, Clojure, etc) and who can use that to green-field from scratch as well as integrate with brown-field (a lot of data we need is still in legacy systems, though we have a roadmap to move it somewhere sane).

We are still looking for a few more people on the front-end. Aside from people who know JavaScript intimately (you'll have a tough quiz to pass during interview), we're also looking for someone who has been inside Android for a while and can untap the potential there. If you have C/C++ knowledge too then all the better as we're keeping our eye on Google's NaCl. Any OpenGL experience would be nice too but certainly isn't high on our current priorities.

Finally we need a designer, one who really understands the limitations of the different devices and yet can turn around flawless and highly communicative work quicker than we can bring it to life with tech.

For all of these roles whilst experience is necessary what we're really looking for is a deep passion for what you do and a real lust for learning and applying what you learn.

Drop me a line at david.kitchen@yelllabs.com and I'll ensure we get back in touch.

I'm the CTO and handle all the hiring. Would be very happy to hear from anyone interested in working in Europe (whether or not you have the right to work here - we do immigration if the fit is right).

Klaut

There is a strong start-up scene in Scotland...

http://techmeetup.co.uk/blog/

We even have companies that actually use FP in products (Erlang) and some Haskell hackers...

The scene here sent half a dozen people to StartUp School and a couple of teams got interviews at YCombinator - and we've had three teams at Seedcamp (including 1 winner) so you don't need to move to London...

Come along or ping me on gordon AT hypernumbers DOT com
