Conspire - Boulder, CO - Full-Time

Conspire is a TechStars company founded in 2012. We analyze email data to give users detailed analytics on their email network and to understand the strength of connections between people. With this understanding, we maintain an always-up-to-date, weighted network of connections without any work on the part of users. When a user needs to reach a person or company, Conspire finds the strongest path of connections in the user's extended network.

We're located in downtown Boulder, Colorado.

QUALIFICATIONS

We're a small team, and we're looking for people to take on a lot of responsibility. You should be prepared to manage projects independently from start to finish, including gathering and refining requirements, evaluating potential approaches, soliciting feedback from teammates and experts, picking the right course of action given the company's goals and delivering stable, performant software that integrates seamlessly.

Our product is built primarily in Java, Scala, Rails and JavaScript, and we use several database technologies. We heavily leverage AWS infrastructure, manage source and issues on GitHub and continuously deploy code to production.

In-depth experience with our technology stack is a plus but not a requirement.

BENEFITS

Along with all the benefits you'd expect, we also offer up to one month international travel per year. Work remotely from anywhere in the world with an Internet connection. We'll even give you $1,000 to send you on your way.

Contact me at alex@goconspire.com (or jobs@goconspire.com).

Scribd (YC '06), San Francisco - H1B, FULL-TIME, and INTERN are all welcome

Scribd (social publishing & eBooks, top 100 website, 35 people) is hiring talented hackers of all kinds to help us build the library of the 21st century..

We've hired SIX full-time people and TONS of summer interns from these "Who is Hiring" threads, including two this summer ... it really works!

We're looking for people who want to work with:

* Ruby on Rails (we're the #2 largest rails site, after Twitter)

* Javascript (well, we use Coffeescript)

* iOS / Android

* Machine Learning / data mining / recommendations

* Back-end infrastructure: scalability, web crawling, big data, analytics

That said, we care way more about your personality and general hacking skills then what languages you've used so far, so if you haven't used these but want to break into mobile or web development, this could be a good opportunity for you. We've hired people from these threads with everywhere from 0 to 10 years of experience. We're profitable, very well funded and have a really fun office environment (go-karts + a rock climbing wall!).

Scribd alumni have gone on to found 4 other YCombinator companies, more than from any other startup. We think this says something about the kind of people that we like to hire.

We are always looking for international people interested in moving to the US and can help you secure a visa.

Scribd's vision is to build the digital library of the 21st century. Just as Wikipedia built the successor to the encyclopedia, we want to build the successor to the library. It is a big vision and we have a long way to go, but I'd be happy to tell you more about what we're working on now and how we plan to get there.

See more at scribd.com/jobs and feel free to email me directly: jared at scribd.com

New York, NY -- Visual Designer -- Quartz -- http://qz.com Quartz is a global business news media startup working out of Soho. We're less than a year old and hit 5MM unique users a month (I believe that puts us up with the likes of the Economist and FT ). We're small and nimble - and no legacy hurdles to hold us back. We like side hack projects: http://open.qz.com/ We release code all the time: http://app.qz.com And…

Hey! I adore Quartz and read it daily.

Though I've done UX testing and (the non-coding side of) design for a couple companies (one YC startup, one Boost, the second being my own), I don't think I'm qualified to work as a visual designer.

Before I worked in startups, I worked in journalism-- a Detroit business magazine and at the U of Michigan newspaper. My degrees are in econ and history. Is there any chance you're hiring for other positions, writer or otherwise?

I'm really passionate about reporting on the intersection of innovation and policy, but I'll write about anything. I'd just love to be a part of your organization.

Sunnyvale, CA - Yahoo! - Full-time, permanent

Position: UI Ninja

I'm going to keep this short and sweet. Big things are happening here at Yahoo! and we want Front-end engineers who are excited about the bleeding edge of web application development.

You're awesome because:

-> Someone in your life is jealous because you love JavaScript more than them

-> You want to build single page applications with Ember or Angular

-> Imperfectly written code keeps you from sleeping at night

-> Canary isn't a bird to you; it's a playground of wonderful new toys

-> You can develop back-end systems, but your keen understanding of user interaction is what sets you apart from the crowd

-> You're badass when working alone, but unstoppable when working with a team that's firing on all cylinders

-> You want/are working with a functional language like Scala or Clojure, because f* verbosity

We're awesome because:

-> We have other UI Ninjas just like yourself

-> We have the camaraderie of a startup, with all the nice perks of a big company

-> The projects you'll work on are incredibly ambitious, highly visible, full of big data, and directly impacting the success of Yahoo!

-> We have disowned Internet Explorer's first 8 children
