Ask HN: Who is Hiring? (March 2012)

We support a family of CPAP websites including CPAP.com, CPAPtalk.com, HMSSleep.com and CPAPDropShip.com. We sell CPAP equipment, manage a CPAP forum and provide outsourced services to other CPAP providers.

We have a two person IT team with chops looking to add a third of similar skill. The newest portion of our business is growing fast and we are beefing it up to scale.

XenServer/Nexenta SANs supports a stack including PHP/MySQL/jQuery/RabbitMQ/Asterisk

Three HNers freelance with us on the coding side, but we prefer local Sys Admins to remote. GM is a coder and manages the team.

1 on 1 skype sessions with people working here now for unfiltered Q&A are available on request.

Phone interviews are done remotely with an etherpad clone and take 30 min to an hour. No harm in scheduling and interview, looking at the hard questions and taking a pass.

If interested, please email times good for you to johnny@cpap.com.

We're creating a new platform to help developers and institutions build creative solutions to address the massive unsolved problems in the financial services industry. The group is going to be run like a startup inside the larger company - very small and fast iterations.

We're looking for folks to help us evangelize the platform - talk to developers about their needs and translate them into improvements on our side, work with developers as they integrate our API into their solutions, and be the voice of ETRADE as we work with the community to build great product.

You should have experience creating applications or platforms, ideally including experience in mobile platforms and common HTTP Web Services protocols, including XML-RPC, SOAP and REST.
