London (UK) and Boston (US).

We're a 100-person financial-software firm committed to learning and improvement as well as great web software and agile development.

We use Java, Scala, and some Groovy; we always write tests first and pair on most coding tasks. Developers have Linux workstations with at least two monitors. We have weekly lightning talks that cover finance and technical topics. We have "real" 10% time with a day set aside for relevant projects prioritised by developers.

Some of you may know us from our sponsorship of Hacker News meetups in London. See http://devblog.timgroup.com and http://www.timgroup.com/careers for more about us.

Note we recently changed our name from youDevise to TIMGroup but we're still the same folks!

Khan Academy (Mountain View) is hiring:

Our mission is to provide a world-class education to anyone, anywhere. We already have millions of students learning every month, and we're growing quickly.

Our students answer over 2 million math exercise problems per day, all generated by our open source exercise generation framework (http://github.com/khan/khan-exercises, http://ejohn.org/blog/khan-exercise-rewrite/), and Sal's videos have been viewed over 117 million times. We're just getting started feeding this data we're collecting back into the product to help our users learn more (http://david-hu.com/2011/11/02/how-khan-academy-is-using-mac...). If you're interested in data, analytics, and education, this is a dream gig.

Plus, it's one of the highest educational impact positions you can imagine. We're hiring all types of devs -- mobile, frontend, backend, whatever you want to call yourself. Big plans ahead.

Berlin - PAID full-time BizDev internships

EyeQuant (http://eyequant.com) - we're a neuroscience meets marketing startup out of CalTech and the University of Osnabrueck, Germany. We help companies optimise their websites for the world's most complex search engine: the human visual system. Our neurotechnology-SaaS EyeQuant predicts within seconds how users will view a website, landing page or newsletter - it delivers over 90% of an eye-tracking study's accuracy at less than 1% of the cost and time involved. Our scientific board comprises three of the world's most esteemed neuroscientists, including Christof Koch. Customers like Groupon see conversion uplifts of over 50% after optimising their websites with EyeQuant.

We're currently hiring BizDev interns in Berlin. You will learn a lot about conversion optimisation, b2b sales and the neuroscience of vision. This is a paid position and the salary will enable you to enjoy a lot of what Berlin has to offer (unless you're into 50$ breakfasts at the Hilton Hotel, but then you probably wouldn't want to move to Berlin anyway :)

Interested? Please get in touch with me via fabian at eyequant dot com

I am a PhD student in human-computer interaction looking for a summer internship in the Bay Area. I am well-versed in UX research and design but I am also experienced with front-end web development, so I can communicate with developers and even implement prototypes if need be.

Startups often leave UX till the later stages, or disregard it completely. The earlier you address your UX, the easier (and cheaper!) it will be. Don't wait till you have a completely finished product that no one likes using!

Any interested companies can email me at jeff@jeffreycrow.com, I love talking about what I do.
