Dropbox (http://www.dropbox.com/) is looking for an engineer to help with our backend architecture and scalability. Lots of nasty, difficult challenges interfacing with millions of software clients and keeping a multi-petabyte filesystem running. We're located in downtown SF.

Needs to be proficient in C, Python, MySQL. Needs to be able to pick up new systems quickly. Great GPA from a top 5 CS school a plus.

If this sounds like you, send me an email! r@dropbox.com

Airbnb is hiring 10+ people right now. In particular, we could use some Front End Engineers (backend knowledge is a big plus). Our team is small and you will have a huge impact on the product. Email me directly at chris@airbnb.com if you: 1) are nasty with Javascript / CSS / HTML 2) can prove it with existing work on great websites or projects 3) love the idea of Airbnb More about our jobs here: http://www.airbnb.com…

Just wanted to say that I've met most of the folks at Airbnb and they are all unbelievably awesome. Seriously check them out, they're doing some amazing things.

Facebook is hiring http://www.facebook.com/careers.

Why Join?

Startup culture - This will be the closest thing you can get to a startup environment without going on an all-ramen diet. We move fast and avoid the bs.

Work on something people use - Users upload a Flickr worth of photos every month. Life is too short to work on something nobody is going to use.

Plus you get to change the way the world communicates and shares.
