I'd like to see this kind of post every month, how about the first monday of every month? A lot of hackers are looking for jobs and a lot of entrepreneurs are also hiring. Perfect match!

- Jobs HN: We are hiring - Jobs HN: We are available One for entrepreneurs to post their openings. One for hackers to post their availability and skills. I know we already have HN jobs, but this may be an informal way for HN readers and contributors, and who knows, it may grow to be part of our community.

...and HN jobs seems to be limited to Ycomb founded startups.

Bump is hiring iPhone developers, Android developers (exp in Android or consumer Java apps), and Data/Algorithm Eng (either exp mining data to improve QoS or background in Stats/Phys/Exp Sci/EE). More: http://bu.mp/jobs. We are also hiring interns. Feel free to email me if you have questions: jake(at)bu.mp.

About us: Bump is changing the way people interact with each other. Our technology makes it quick and easy to connect two phones, simply bump them into each other. We created the Bump app on iPhone and Android which nearly 11M people have downloaded to share contact information, photos, and compare mutual friends (seen here in an Apple commercial: http://bit.ly/8FbXGi). We have also released an API/SDK that lets anyone add bumping to their app in ~9 lines of code (http://bu.mp/api) and is used by PayPal to bump money (http://nyti.ms/bSnztr). And there is a lot more on its way. Bump is backed by Sequoia Capital, Ron Conway, and Y Combinator.

Located in Mountain View, CA near the Caltrain. Competitive salary/options/benefits.

RethinkDB in Mountain View, CA: looking for system and performance engineers. Interns also welcome. More details here: http://www.rethinkdb.com/jobs Here's a quick blurb from our jobs page: Working at RethinkDB truly involves disruptive technology and solving interesting, challenging problems. Building caching algorithms, advanced data structures, and lock-free concurrency primitives from scratch is just business as…

That's kind of nice that you post your salary ranges online, but do you really think you'll get quality engineers for those salaries? Position Salary Stock Options Intern 50K - 60K, prorated N/A Engineer I 65K - 75K 0.25% - 0.75% Engineer II 80K - 90K 1.0% - 1.5% Engineer III 95K - 105K 1.75% - 2.25% For interns, that's a great salary, but your senior engineers will probably expect 1.5 times that.

If stock options are part of the deal, my understanding is that generally the more senior your position, higher the ratio of options to salary and the bigger pay cut you are expected to take.
