#162(local in Vienna, the city with the best quality of life in the world http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/europe/austria/972...)
We, nextSociety Inc want to help people find and connect to the subset of their social network contacts that is actually relevant to them.
To achieve this we need people that like hard challenges, want to work with cutting edge natural language processing and machine learning tools, and know that to deliver value to the customer even the loftiest algorithms have to be glued together with solid software craftsmanship.
We are a Java shop with the frontend written in Backbone for fast prototyping, but strongly believe that real programming talent is not language bound.
We have an office in the center of Vienna in walking distance to innumerable bars and pubs, regular happy hours and regularly host guest start ups to cooperate and learn from each other.
If you are interested or know someone who is, shoot me (ben@nextsociety.com) a mail, recruiters shouldn't bother.

#1633D printing should be as easy as how we create and communicate. That’s why New Matter is more than just a printer. It’s an end-to-end 3D printing system, including our breakthrough MOD-t 3D printer, complimentary software, and a store full of cool 3D-printable designs.
Check out the last few days of our crowdfunding campaign here: https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/new-matter-mod-t-a-3d-pri...
* Senior Software Engineer - Back End *
We're looking for an engineer to lead the development of the back end of the 3D printing marketplace that’s tightly integrated with our 3D printer. We’re very early so you really get to own this piece of the product. You’ll work closely with product, front end engineers, mobile engineers, and firmware engineers to develop an API that talks to both our marketplace as well as our printers. Being self-driven is important since the team is small and we want to build an ambitious product quickly.
Preferably Ruby/Rails, but we are early enough that you can pretty much build it out the way you want. You should have strong experience developing large-scale web applications and experience designing and building REST APIs.
* Senior Software Engineer - Front End *
We are also looking for engineer to lead the development of the front end of the marketplace. We’re very early so you really get to own this piece of the product. You’ll work closely with product and design to implement the best possible user experience across both desktop and mobile.
An ideal candidate would be up to date on current best practices for developing complex user interfaces, including front end frameworks and communicating with REST APIs. Being self-driven is important since the team is small and we want to build an ambitious product quickly. You should have strong experience developing large-scale web applications (desktop and mobile web), experience with modern web frameworks (such as Backbone, Angular, Ember, etc), experience working with REST APIs, and, obviously, experience with and extensive knowledge of web technologies (HTML5/CSS3/Javascript). Major plus if you consider yourself a full-stack developer (ie, you know how to integrate the front end with the back end)
* Other positions *
We don't have formal job descriptions written yet, but if you are a desktop software or firmware engineer, please get in touch with us.

#165We're the prettiest entrant in a traditionally un-pretty industry: real estate. This is an entrenched industry that is overdue for some innovation, and it's a great opportunity to work on improving the difficult experience of finding a home. Your rent payment is probably the biggest bill you pay every month.
It's a great time to join because we've recently hit an inflection point, especially in SF where it's hard to find an apartment. We're on Lifehacker regularly, featured in last month's WIRED magazine, and 7x7 named us one of the top startups changing the world.
We're just over 20 people right now but we're growing as fast as we can find people. We just signed a lease for our first office by ourselves, a gorgeous 6000sqft building. I run engineering -- ex-YC, Django dev, been in the real estate space most of my life. I'd be happy to answer any of your questions: zain@livelovely.com.

#170"We shape our tools, and thereafter our tools shape us"
The goal is to democratize software. Quite a shame that 30 years into personal computing, an average person's interaction still caps at word-processing. We'd like to change that.
A beautiful loft/artist office in the Mission. Best investors out there.
You will be part of the founding team. You need to be able to make things and think conceptually.
