I wrote Cognii a couple months ago and got nothing back. No rejection letter. Just silence. My advice: Do. Not. Waste. Time. (Sorry, but if people don't speak out, then shitty behavior continues.)

I have no idea what Cognii is. Also, I'm usually a fan of your posts. However, not replying to an email or job inquiry is not such a big deal that you would hold it against them or call them out publicly for it.

Manchester, UK. Senior Developer & developers.

Skylab has an awesomely talented team, a great culture and has digital innovation at its core.

We are looking for an experienced senior developer with sys admin experience to join the team and play a leading role in developing both the coding team and our websites, apps and cloud based infrastructure projects for clients. This role will be a mix of:

- Architecting solutions

- Hands-on development

- Mentoring the team and setting standards and processes

The senior developer will need to understand the concepts of service-oriented architecture, dependency injection and will have ideally used this in a commercial application. Additionally, practical experience of test driven development will be beneficial.

Experience of using an MVC framework is critical, as we use the Symfony PHP framework, both 1.x and 2.x.

Experience of Wordpress and ExpressionEngine will also be useful (but not critical), as we use these CMSs to drive some of our clients websites.

Developers will be expected to show experience in and around the following topics:

- Development cycle, processes and tools

- Quality assurance

- Security

- Performance

- Standardisation

- Software architecture

New York City, NY - Neo

We care more about passion and curiosity, less about knowledge of one particular framework. So you don’t need to know Rails or iOS but you do need to have experience in familiar frameworks, and you need to be willing to learn either or both. Languages and frameworks can be learned, passion cannot.

Our development process is based on XP with an emphasis on individualism and pragmatism. We pair a lot, but not all the time. We test a lot, but not all the time. The key is being able to explain your practices with rational argument. Ultimately, we care more about building the best products we can, less so about being dogmatic about our process.

Lexington, MA - Tokutek (http://www.tokutek.com/)

Full-time testing/QA engineer. Use whatever you like to break our software in interesting ways. We want someone who can build out and own testing for the long term. MySQL and/or MongoDB experience would be great. C/C++ even better but definitely not necessary.

You'll be responsible for designing and implementing new test infrastructure for both correctness and performance, you'll be in direct contact with our VP of Engineering, Tim Callaghan, as well as most of us engineers.

We're a highly technical storage systems company, with two flagship products that share a highly-tuned core: TokuDB, a storage engine for MySQL, and TokuMX, a fork of MongoDB. We currently have 6 core engineers, plus Tim.

Email us at {leif,tim} at tokutek dot com.

Tell your friends!

Did you know there's a company based in Soho that has enough technology to be considered among the world's Top 250 supercomputing sites? One that imports over 5TB of data every single day, and has alumni from Google, Intel, and Microsoft?

You might think I'm talking about some stealth-mode startup, but I'm talking about where I work: Two Sigma Investments. At our core, we're a technology company applying our talents to the domain of finance. We've created a system that combines artificial intelligence and keen human insight — a system that's constantly improving and advancing. We're looking for a diverse set of technologists to join our team. Our challenges require mastery of areas such as kernel level development, machine learning, and distributed systems. Our team includes a Unix Lifetime Achievement winner, Putnam medalists, ACM Programming competition finalists, and International Mathematics Olympiad medalists. We are proud of our individual pedigrees, but even prouder of our teamwork.

We tend to hire people with at least a bachelor’s degree in a technical or quantitative field and experience with C or languages that target the JVM, but we are open-minded in our search for critical thinkers who are passionate about technology. We analyze the data-rich domain of finance, but financial experience is not a requirement. We hope to hear from you!
