Styloot is a search engine for fashion. Currently it's difficult for women to find the clothing they want online - it involves browsing many sites, it's unclear what to type into the search box, etc. We aim to make that process easy.
Currently we are 5 people on the tech side - myself (CTO), our CEO, a developer, and two designers, as well as 8 girls on the fashion side. Culturally we are pretty much a valley or NY startup - I'm a NY startup guy myself and I wouldn't work anyplace with big company culture.
We are looking for a junior programmer. There are a lot of things to do at styloot and we don't have time for all of them. We are looking for an entry level programmer to whom we can hand off the easy tasks. Web scraping is one of the biggies - we index a lot of sites and each site needs it's own scraper. Of course, if you can do more than just the easy tasks, that's even better.
If interested, send me an email. Contact info is in my profile. If you have code on github/bitbucket, you don't need to waste time writing a resume.
A little late to the party. I blame the hangover I had yesterday :)
Social Tables (http://www.socialtables.com), a funded, DC-based startup is looking for a Senior Developer/VP of Engineering (employee #1, wahoo!).
If you immediately thought that this startup makes databases social, you're the kind of person we're looking for and you'll fit right in. Please read on :)
Social Tables is the seating plan platform for events. You know how weddings, galas and other large events have assigned seating? Well, the biggest PITA in planning these events is figuring out how to seat guests (it can take weeks). Our cloud-based software solves that problem.
Since launching in May 2011, we've seated 43k guests at 450 different events. We're expanding rapidly through big strategic partnerships and aggressive customer acquisition.
In this role, your responsibilities will be to lead product development of our next version. We prefer Rails but if PHP is your weapon of choice, that's cool. You should also be proficient in JavaScript since things will be a little heavier on the client-side going forward.
You must be a motivated self-starter who is energized by teamwork and loves to learn new things.
Traction aside, right now is the perfect time to join Social Tables and we would love to tell you why. In addition to competitive compensation, you will get serious equity (we agree with Naval in his recent post on this issue - http://startupboy.com/2011/12/13/why-you-cant-hire/).
If this sounds interesting to you, email me: dan [at] socialtables dot [com!]
Use Postgres, Redis, AWS, Ruby 1.9.2 & Rails 3.0 to help college students find scholarships. AcademicWorks is a profitable startup that values work/life balance and career development.
We're a SAAS provider of testing, targeting and personalization tools (e.g. content targeting, segmentation, A/B testing). We are located in Conshohocken, a Philly suburb and our clients list consists of many big e-retailers. I got hired via HN a year ago and we do have a good number of engineers in the team who found Monetate through one of these threads.
We are actively looking for Front End and Backend engineers.
Front end engineers primarily write JS that runs on our customers' sites or for building features for our client facing product. Backend engineers work on large data and web performance. We work in Python, but experience with the language is not a prerequisite. We have many interesting front end, scaling and big-data problems to solve. Monetate is a fun work place with an awesome culture and a big list of benefits. If you want to work with interesting people who are passionate about what they are doing, do check out our jobs page

G Adventures is a technology-driven adventure travel company in downtown Toronto, and we're looking to expand our software engineering team.

We love coffee, roti, beer, and foosball. Oh, and of course adventure travel, for which there are generous perks!
Great location, themed meeting rooms, regular cultural lunches, tons of merch, technical freedom, and a huge amount of company spirit and staff appreciation.
We have multiple positions open, and are eagerly waiting for passionate developers to fill our inbox. Send us an email at talentagency@gadventures.com

Mainly would be doing a large amount of challenging HTML5, Javascript, and using PHP (Cake) & MySQL on the backend. Big bonus points if you have graphics programming experience and hardware background: microcontrollers, designing PCBs, tearing things apart, and familiarity with the Maker movement.

@jteo: We don't yet have the means to sponsor non-EU/UK candidates. If you have an EU passport or otherwise have the legal right to work in the UK, we'd be happy to hear from you.
We're looking to hire two people to satisfy the following needs: Rails, sysadmin and C programmer.
We're a pattern analysis company based in Midtown, Atlanta. We've recently hired a sales team and we've got plenty of work to do.
Our apps are Rails-based, but are anything but typical. We do some computationally heavy stuff and basically use Rails apps as a presentation layer. We're usually dealing with huge datasets and need someone that has a strong sense of what Rails is doing "underneath." ActiveRecord behaves differently when you're dealing with 60,000+ records at a time.
We need a C programmer to back up our chief scientist. Operations research experience is a huge plus.
We use several AWS tools including EC2, S3, SNS, and RDS (We also use Heroku for several apps). We need someone to manage our EC2 environment. This probably wouldn't amount to a full-time responsibility, but we do need someone to "own" this aspect of our business. We'd like to have a C programmer + UNIX admin combo but if you can fill our Rails and sysadmin needs, that works too.
If you're interested, take a whack at our developer test and send us an email.
DocBookMD is creating a smartphone platform for physicians to communicate in a fast, secure, HIPAA-compliant way. We are ramping up our activity, and looking to add to the team. We are growing extremely fast, and we're looking for candidates that can take responsibility move quickly.
iOS Developer:
You have 1+ years writing apps for the iOS platform, and have a solid knowledge of the iOS environment, including architectural design, coding, testing, deployment, and managing releases.
UI/UX Designer:
You love to make beautiful designs for smartphone apps. You know how to design an app that is easy to learn, quick to use, and great to look at. You know how to do detailed, pixel-level design, and how to slice up your design for use in smartphone apps, as well as on the web.
DocBookMD offers a competitive salary, and equity for the right candidates.

SCRUFF, one of the largest and fastest-growing gay social networks, is hiring a senior engineer for its New York office.
SCRUFF is not a traditional software startup - we think there are a few reasons why working at SCRUFF is a one-of-a-kind experience:
• You will get to make consumer software that lots of people use.
Consumer software is by far one of the most fun businesses to be in. Consumer software is easy to explain, you can share it immediately with your friends, and you get to apply both technical and design skills. Business-to-business software is well and good, but there's a reason why we aren't writing automated trading platforms for hedge funds :) SCRUFF has been fortunate to find a market that is both growing quickly and very excited about our product. When you come on board, the code you write will affect hundreds of thousands of guys every day.
• Our #1 priority for you is your professional development
Most startups want engineers to start producing shipping code on day one. We would much rather take the time to allow you to explore our codebase, do deep dives into the technologies we use, and ultimately write great production code in weeks or months. We feel mentorship is one of the most critical aspects of enjoying your job.
We also strive to practice good core software engineering principles, because we believe in the long-run it will make the code you write better, bring more benefits to our members, and be most helpful for you in your career. The ideal candidate should come in with a healthy ego and a positive attitude, be open to critical feedback, and be eager to develop more in the practice of professional software development.
• You will touch every piece of code we have.
Our engineering team is small. There are no client-side/server-side functional divides. You will be responsible for the servers (we have a lot). You will be responsible for the client (iOS and Android). Your brain will be stretched in new and confounding ways. But in the process you will build a set of skills that will form the core of all software innovation of the next 10 years. What we teach you at SCRUFF about mobile development will be like learning HTML in 1995 or GUI programming in 1985.
• Parties are our business, and now they're yours, too.
No, seriously. Lots of startups will talk about their Friday night beer busts, but at SCRUFF we take it to a new level. SCRUFF partners with promoters and events all across the world. As a SCRUFF team member, you will become part of the SCRUFF brand, and will have opportunities to represent us at events both locally and across the country.
• New York City.
SCRUFF is based in Manhattan, the most amazing city in the world. Everyone you've ever met will want to come and visit. Your other friends who work at banks will complain to you about their schedules while you are busy planning SCRUFF parties into your workday(night?) Startup networking events will be blocks away, every day. You'll have access to the most restaurants, the most culture, and an endless stream of new people to meet. We love New York, and think you will love it too.

HotelTonight is just over a year old company now. We have great funding (plus a solid business model and increasing revenues & growth every month), and a wide range of interesting projects in mobile (iOS, Android, web/HTML5/JS), Rails, devops, etc. We are always hiring at this point.
I truly love the company and team we've built. The culture is outstanding, and one of the best parts is that every developer has a direct impact on product. We're continuing to innovate in our mobile apps, but also doing some very intriguing work on the back end.
Our main office is in San Francisco, but remote is possible too - US or Canada only. No contracting firms or recruiters please.
Suitable Technologies is a startup working to create an innovative new product for something called "remote presence."
We have funding, competitive compensation, and a fun work environment, complete with our own chef and break-time games like table tennis. We provide top-of-the-line development hardware, adjustable desks, and will try to get your workspace just right.
Our first product, in development now, is similar to video chat on a computer you can drive around. Unlike videoconferencing, you’re not stuck to a wall or desk. It becomes your physical presence, anywhere in the world, with the freedom to move and interact with people as if you were there. Our technology has already been seen by millions of people, and we think the potential impact is substantial.
We're looking for great engineers, designers, testers, and more. We need help in C++, audio and video software and codecs, web frontend and backend, UI/UX design, electrical, and networking. We think this could be a unique opportunity for someone with experience in web or mobile to work on something a little different.
Need to haves:
- Object Oriented PHP.
- Frameworks (e.g. Symfony 1&2, Zend).
- MVC pattern experience.
- Agile experience (e.g. Scrum).
- Databases (MySQL, MSSQL).
- Linux experience (Debian).
Responsibilities
- Develop, but also contribute in conceptualization, to make great solutions.
- Development of e-commerce and features to improve customer experiences.
- Development of internal web applications, such as sophisticated product management software.
- Development of web applications to support new product features.
- Overall optimization and improvements of existing systems where considered necessary.

Mountain View CA, Full-Time, Web Application Engineer
Luminate.com is seeking an engineer with a strong background in web application development and implementation. As a member of the web applications group you will get to work on our core front end product as well as help design and implement our next generation products. We are changing the way people interact with images online and here is your chance to help push that vision to the next level. Come work at one of the hottest silicon valley startups along side veteran engineers and architects from Netscape, Tellme, LiveOps, and Digg and backed by top tier VC's and Google.
Required experience and knowledge:
* Experience in professional software web apps development (start-up environment preferred)
ThinkNear is building the infrastructure to help usher in the post-PC era. We help the mobile app ecosystem thrive by enabling developers to make money from their apps, consumers to enjoy free experiences, and advertisers to reach relevant consumers in a privacy friendly way.
We are tackling hard and interesting technical challenges, creating massive opportunity, and having a ton of fun in the process. We’re always looking for ambitious, driven self-starters who want to be on the leading edge of developing technology.
We are looking for a top tier software engineer or chronically under-recognized hacker. Along the top of your resume, you could list 30-odd acronyms from SQL to XML and back through the JVM a dozen times, but hate the idea that that’s what companies will evaluate you on. You don’t code, you craft. Your solutions are as elegant as they are simple. You love getting that perfect solution that takes only 4 lines of code instead of an ungodly 6. You have experience building real products in the real world.
Final note: The Software Development Engineer position is for one of the first few engineers. You’ll be in a position to shape the direction of the code, the team, the product, and the company. We’re looking for people who are excited by that.
REMOTE or onsite in our London offices, or some hybrid arrangement.
We are CopyCopy (http://www.copycopy.cc/) - a startup company creating a cross-platform productivity tool that will make it simple to transfer information between phones and desktops.
We use:
• Java (for Android, BackberryOS, GWT and in our homegrown lightweight Java server)
• C++ (for Win32, Qt, Android NDK and Objective-C++)
• Python (occasionally) to string bits together
• Objective-C (in the future)
• JavaScript (web frontend work and browser extensions)
• Redis
We are young and fast-moving. Our product is in its early stages but moving fast towards the first release. You will have the opportunity of working on self-contained projects from spec to release to consumers.
Our Git repositories, code review and Project Management tools are geared towards remote working and we are open to flexible working conditions.
We urgently need interns (paid), longer term student placements, and especially full-timers.
We are happy to consider remote workers who are located in timezones +/-3 hours from London but being able to come into North West London often is a big plus.
It is our belief that the most important decisions we make are decisions about people (e.g., who to start a company with, who to hire, who to date/marry...) We also feel like the Web is in its infancy in terms of helping us to make better decisions based on data and that this space will explode in coming years.
We're planning to help with the detonation.
We have a long backlog of customers waiting to use our product when it launches (in Q1) and a big market in front of us. We're building an engineering-centric organization and working out of a cool work/live space in the Mission. Our current stack includes Ruby, Rails, MySQL, Resque, and elasticsearch, etc. We're also planning to contribute to open source as much as we can (e.g., https://github.com/rglabs/teleport).
We're funded but also really early so it's a unique opportunity to help us set the tone and to be a major contributor (not to mention, get a sizable option grant).
To hear more drop me a line directly at jon@rglabsinc.com or contact via our website. We'd love to share more with you.
