Ableton in Berlin is hiring C and Python developers: http://www.ableton.com/jobs

Any chance of doing an internship? I'm doing my master's in maths in Berlin and have experience with development in Python and Clojure.

In web-development (which is where your skills would apply most) we don't do internships.

Earlier quoted context omitted.

Relax. Surely Peroni has demonstrated sufficient value to the HN community to allow him to post in a "Who's hiring" thread without people getting on their critical high horse. Would you rather he sat on his hands if he has the perfect job for people here? I for one will be taking him up on his offer...if you have ever dealt with tech recruiters you will appreciate the service he is offering.

I agree with all that generally (and nothing at all against Peroni, or working with a recruiter at all, etc). I still think it's best if he leaves this thread to direct company postings, though, and finds other ways to let interested HNers to work with him. The ideal "Who's Hiring" page will have lots of postings, and every post will be as close to "ideal" as possible. I define an ideal post in this context as one th…

Retrospect is a wonderful thing. I won't be posting on Who's Hiring again although for the record, out of those that contacted me, I have already arranged interviews for three of them and there are potentially more to come so at least those that read my post in a positive light might actually get something out of it.

Splunk, Seattle, San Francisco, Cupertino (H-1B)

Splunk is hiring. You can see available positions here: http://www.splunk.com/view/careers/SP-CAAAAGG

We're generally hiring for everything, including core server engineers, dev platform engineers, dev marketing, product management, QA, performance, UI, etc. It's a big space with a lot of opportunity, and we're doing our best to capture it.

I work on the Dev Platform team in Seattle, and it's a blast. We're a small team (3 devs, including my manager, VP of Dev Platform), in a great space (across the street from Whole Foods in SLU), and everybody at Splunk is great. Feel free to reach out to me (my email is in my profile) with any questions.

We do H-1B, pre-IPO stock, benefits, etc.

Palo Alto, CA - Rails Developer (CTO?) (local preferred, but will consider other U.S.)

Stealth start-up focused on a consumer finance vertical that's very large like Mint.com's, but distinctly different and, we believe, more interesting / subject to disruption. The initial site/app is nearly completed and we're close to launch. Our non-local lead developer, pursuant to known prior commitment, became CTO at a local (for him) start-up in an unrelated area. We're looking for an experienced rails developer immediately to fill his shoes to take company to launch and beyond. Ideally, this role would lead to co-founder / CTO role. Looking for very strong rails / jQuery / MySQL expertise, test-driven development style and entrepreneurial instincts. If interested, please inquire at workfor@finpicture.com.

I have no experience with HTML, CSS, programming, or website design. I was hit with a brilliant idea for a social networking, user review, and local search web site months ago that can create excess income for many of the common talented/skilled that lack the resources.

I am on an inexorable hunt for a tech co-founder! I am passionate about my concept and vision. Only the hungry reply.
