Stoneburn are a Google Apps, Google Enterprise Search and Amazon Web Services consultancy. We're looking for junior administration & deployment staff - our ultimate hires would be a year or two out of university, with a system administrator/scripting background and a hacker mentality. Your primary work to start will be building our support department for business Google Apps customers, but you'd be expected to be competent enough to help out with any Linux/Windows application we might engineer for our customers and host on AWS. (We'll expect you to know enough about e-mail to tell me what an MX record is, but full Google/Amazon training is provided.)

As hiring manager I'll be looking out for a cover letter that shows both ambition and the great communication skills you would be expected to display to customers.

Depending on your preference for direction, possible career path is into the development or deployment teams.

Check the jobs page out at http://www.stoneburn.com/about-stoneburn/jobs. Instructions on how to apply are on that page, but please put 'HN' in the subject.

Factual is hiring in Palo Alto, Los Angeles, and Shanghai. Local candidates preferred, but remote work is possible for exceptional U.S. candidates. Full-time only. H1B is okay for very strong, non-remote applicants.

Factual's vision is to be an awesome and affordable data provider, so that developers, startups, and big companies can focus on innovation instead of data acquisition. We believe in openness and transparency rather than proprietariness and obfuscation. We have a terrific team that is still fairly small, and an incredible CEO (he was the co-founder of Applied Semantics, which was sold to Google and became AdSense).

In late 2010, we raised a Series A from Andreessen-Horowitz, and our customers and partners include Facebook, Newsweek, Yelp, and Blekko. We have lots of challenging problems to work on at all layers of the stack: data cleaning and canonicalization, deduping, storage, serving, APIs, etc. If you love data, Factual is the place to be.

We have job openings for software engineers of all levels. You would ideally know Java and/or Clojure, and you'll get bonus points for experience with machine learning, NLP, algorithm design, or Hadoop.

If you're interested in the Bay Area office, it just opened in December of 2011 and is very small, so you'd have a significant influence on the culture there.

You can email me personally at leo -at- factual.com, or view our job postings and apply directly via Jobvite:
