Various European Locations (Vienna, Milano, Sofia, Belgrade) - Bank

We're currently looking for a couple of "full stack" developers to join our R&D team. We mainly work with big data analysis and visualization.

Scala is our "lingua franca" for most things (from Akka to Scalding to Play Framework to Spray) (but we've also used Clojure and Python and are interested in just about anything else). We also use Hadoop (HBase and HDFS), ZeroMQ and Redis.

On the client side we've been using D3 a lot with both Backbone and AngularJS (we tend to use CoffeeScript).

Send over your cv (in English) using "6653437 - {desired location}" as subject line to me michiel.pascolutti@gmx.at (pdf please!)

Popular Pays - Chicago, IL

We're democratizing social currency. Imagine a Klout for local business, where you can get a cup of coffee if you have a bunch of Instagram followers. But instead of caring about whether or not Justin Bieber retweeted you, we measure influence based on your ability to get your followers to visit that shop you just posted about. Oh yeah, it's possible.

We're a recently-launched and VC-funded startup and you've got to be a full-stack / back-end engineer as good as our mobile dev: @mxcl, the guy who made Homebrew. (Yeah, that thing you use everyday.)

Here's our app: https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/popular-pays/id673760702?mt=...

Here's some press: http://www.fastcoexist.com/3015760/change-generation/your-in...

* Since none of the 4 current teammates are taking a salary, there's plenty of Seed Funding left for you. Equity, too.

* We've got our own unique space inside of an ad agency downtown that they gave to us, but you can work where ever you want.

* We'll pay for gym, laundry, and anything that's a distraction from doing shit you don't want to do.

* Vision/Health/Dental/Medical covered 100%.

* We don't count vacation days.

* We pay your phone bill and when you join we'll upgrade you to the newest iPhone. We might have to steal from somebody if you want a gold one though.

* You'll get a dope computer…duh.

If you're not from Chicago but want to work with us for a month, we'll fly you out and you can live in our startup dorm. (We've got 5 out of 6 units in our two neighboring houses and they're all our friends.)

If you pass our interview and we offer you a job, you can keep $1,000 cash even if you don't take the job.

If you're interested, just email jobs@popularpays.com with your name/Github/Twitter and say hi.

Huge fan of Khan Academy. Any openings related to Digital Marketing or Product Growth? Do you support H1B?

All our open positions are listed on our careers page so if you don't see something there that fits, we don't have anything (sorry!). Right now we can't support initial visa applications but I believe we can sponsor renewals.

Thanks for the info.

mySociety.org is hiring UK-based web developers.

mySociety is a community of coders and technology fiends using our talents to make the world a better place.

We do this by building useful, high impact, democratic open source web apps like FixMyStreet.com, WhatDoTheyKnow.com and TheyWorkForYou.com, and running projects, such as Alaveteli, to help people run tools like these around the world.

We’re hiring open-source-savvy web developers in order to grow our international impact, help us sustain ourselves through commercial work, and increase our reach in the UK.

We are a friendly, user-focused software development team, and we get to work on stuff that matters. Our sites and projects help people to get important things done: holding politicians to account, extracting information from government, and getting streetlights fixed. And as a mySociety developer you can see the benefits and talk to the users, every day.

We’re looking for new developers who will be comfortable working on both charitable and commercial projects, for clients who vary from volunteers (asking for new features) through to big media company clients with high expectations of professionalism.

We’re not dogmatic about languages: if you can work in any of Ruby, Python or Perl you’ll be at home here - we’ll find an interesting project for you. We love Django and Rails, and we’re having fun experimenting with Node.js, canvas, and more.

We’re widely geographically dispersed across the UK, and a lot of people work from home or from co-working spaces.

I interviewed once at Bloomberg. Kind of rocked the phone interview on algorithms and then on-site everybody was acting like if they hated to be there to deal with me. Plus it was weird as it was a Rails position and I got interviewed by people not in the team I was applying for on college C++ internals stuff. So be careful guys :> The office looks really nice though. And the projects sound pretty sexy.

If you are willing to get in touch privately, I'd like to check up to see what happened w/ your situation.

I'm not sure this always works …
