Weft - http://weft.io - Cambridge/Boston, MA (office is in central sq.)
The problem -> To try to decrease costs, carries have been increasing the size of container ships. The only problem there is that as container ships get larger, the variability in the global supply chain goes up (e.g. a large ship being late causes a headache to more people than a small one).
How we fix it -> We track every ship on the water and run a bunch of analysis on our data sets so that we can help our customers smooth out the rough edges. (One company we're working with spends 6.5 mil every month on “late fees” because of these rough edges).
Mobile -> iOS, android in the near term
Algorithms -> a dizzying mixture of oldschool and newschool techniques ;-)
Looking for help on mobile, frontend, and data science sides! Would be thrilled to find a CTO to grow the tech side of the company with me, but I'm also happy to find engineers who just want to build great things.
If this sounds interesting, please shoot me an email at [email protected]!

Bloomberg - San Francisco (full-time, no remote, no relo, visa ok)
I am looking for the first few individuals to join a team of two building something special in SF. Bootstrapping a team from scratch requires a type of person who thrives in a startup atmosphere and can wear many hats. Ideal candidates have had plenty of experience scaling up or building large distributed systems and/or building products for developers with a large user base. Full-time Bloomberg LP employment with generous benefits and compensation commensurate with experience.
Who we are:
We run a worldwide network with somewhere around 35,000 circuits in 180+ countries. We ingest anywhere from 45-60 billion "ticks" daily aggregate from feeds in all of these countries. We normalize, scrub, and then re-distribute all this data to customers in all of those countries in an efficient manner. The Terminal provides analytic and visualization tools to work with market data, as well as the same tools to work with news and alerts. On the news side, we ingest over 80,000 news feeds (e.g. WSJ would be one "feed") from around the world and do the same kind of processing, applying ML for sentiment and topic classification, machine translation, etc. The web side (bloomberg.com, businessweek.com, Government, Law, etc) uses mostly Rails stacks and everything you would expect to find in a web shop.
If you want to join a team in the single digits and work for one of the most profitable software companies in the world, contact me -- [email protected] (personal e-mail)

Factual - Los Angeles, San Francisco, Shanghai
Factual is currently hiring engineers and data lovers of all levels in the SF Bay Area, Los Angeles, and Shanghai.
Factual’s location platform enriches mobile location signals with definitive global data, enabling personalized and contextually relevant mobile experiences. Built from billions of inputs, the data is constantly updated by Factual’s real-time data stack. We were named one of "50 Disruptive Companies in 2013" by MIT Technology Review.

Factual has venture funding from Andreessen-Horowitz and our partners/customers include Facebook, Yelp, Trulia, and Newsweek.
There are many challenging problems to work on at all layers of the stack: data cleaning and canonicalization, storage, deduping, serving, APIs, improving data using machine learning, etc. A great example is one of our most recent products, Geopulse Audience, which stands at the intersection of high quality places data and large scale analysis of user geo-data: http://www.factual.com/products/geopulse-audience . If you love data, Factual is the place to be. Our main criteria are that you're smart and get things done, but you'll get bonus points for experience with Clojure (http://www.factual.com/jobs/clojure), machine learning, NLP, algorithm design, or Hadoop.

StoryWorth (https://www.storyworth.com) FULLTIME, SF, YC-funded
I'm hiring for two founder-level roles at StoryWorth: Head of Marketing and Partnerships, and Head of Community.
StoryWorth makes it easy for people to privately record their family stories. Each week, we email our customers a question about their life, for example “What do you remember about your grandmother?” or “Tell me about the day you got engaged”. All they have to do is reply with a story, either by email or by phone. We save their stories and share them privately with their family.
We have a launched product with paying customers across the country who love our service. This is an opportunity to be part of the founding team that is going to help every family in the world record their story for generations to come.
You're a good fit for these roles if you crave a ton of responsibility on a small team. You'll get to define your strategy, and then you'll actually get to execute on it. If you're the kind of person who learns by doing, you'll be learning faster than ever before.
If you're interested in either position, I'd be happy to tell you more about each specific role. Send me a short note about yourself at [email protected], I can't wait to hear from you!

Lovely, San Francisco: http://livelovely.com. Looking for smart, relatively senior devs and designers. No remote, but we'll pay relocation expenses if you're not local and we've sponsored two H1Bs so far.
We're the prettiest entrant in a traditionally un-pretty industry: real estate. This is an entrenched industry that is overdue for some innovation, and it's a great opportunity to work on improving the difficult experience of finding a home. Your rent payment is probably the biggest bill you pay every month.
It's a great time to join because we've recently hit an inflection point, especially in SF where it's hard to find an apartment. We're on Lifehacker regularly, featured in last month's WIRED magazine, and 7x7 named us one of the top startups changing the world.
We're just over 20 people right now but we're growing as fast as we can find people. We just signed a lease for our first office by ourselves, a gorgeous 6000sqft building. I run engineering -- ex-YC, Django dev, been in the real estate space most of my life. I'd be happy to answer any of your questions: [email protected].

PHP/Back end or Front-End Developer INTERN - Washington DC
The agency I work for, Engage (http://enga.ge), is looking for fall developer interns. We do everything from WordPress sites to our own products to custom web and mobile apps, and most of our work relates to politics/issue advocacy. We're particularly passionate about Internet issues (anti-SOPA advocacy was a big pro bono project for us). Right now we're gearing up to launch a new product so it's a pretty exciting time. Check out our portfolio here: http://enga.ge/work/.
Anyway, we are looking for a college student with back or front-end talent (PHP/MySQL or Javascript/HTML/CSS). Must be in the DC area or willing to relocate; foreigners welcome as long as you can secure a visa on your own (usually J-1 or F-1).
Also, note that we treat our interns well and hire them. In fact, one of our current developers used to intern here, as did I. And, management doesn't really care if you have side projects, which is always nice.
To apply, please send me an email directly to [email protected] with the subject "Developer intern from Hacker News" (I'm the technical project manager). Include your resume, GitHub/portfolio link and a brief description of why you want to work with us. Hope to hear from you!

Smarkets, London, Software Engineer, Python, Erlang & Mobile
Smarkets is disrupting the global betting industry by offering a modern betting exchange with significantly lower transaction fees than the competition. We're a well-funded company with a small, agile development team, and our platform has handled over £500 million of bets.

Thread.com (YC S12) - Software engineer who loves product (Python/Django) London, England. https://www.thread.com/jobs
We're a startup trying to reinvent retail so men can dress well without being subject to the horrors of the high street or having to trawl through millions of items online. We do this using a combination of powerful algorithms and human stylists.
You'd be joining a small, highly technical team with a ton of startup experience (the founders have started and sold 2 companies before). You'll be one of the first technical hires and get to build and own huge parts of the product and work on the core algorithms.
One of our ancillary goals is to build one of the best engineering cultures anywhere, and we'd love you to help us do that. We launched in October and user and revenue numbers are scaling extremely quickly. We're backed by a collection of the top investors from London and Silicon Valley as well as Y Combinator.
We're especially interested in people who are interested in founding their own startup one day. We view working at Thread as a founder bootcamp where you'll learn about all parts of starting and growing a startup.

South Lake Tahoe (Zephyr Cove, NV) Informa Investment Solutions, Inc. is seeking both a senior and a junior developer to join our web applications team at our office on the shores of Lake Tahoe. If you love designing and building modern, responsive web applications that make it easy for business users to run sophisticated investment analysis software, we would like to talk to you. We’re an established company with actual paying customers and we want to make our little corner of the world a better place for our users.
We use standards-based HTML, JavaScript and CSS, along with state of the art technologies – Canvas, SVG, RequireJS, Backbone, Marionette, and LESS – to build cross-browser interfaces and advanced data visualizations. The backend is a mixture of C#, Java, C++ because we believe in using the right tool for the job, and we are regularly evaluating our tools to ensure that. Our development process is agile and we release our web products approximately once a month.
Our offices are a five minute walk from the Nevada shore of Lake Tahoe and Heavenly ski resort is a fifteen minute drive from the office. As a developer you’ll also get your own private office and even though we mostly develop on Windows, all our developers have Mac hardware. We prefer to hire generalists who are as curious and excited about technology as we are. All of us enjoy learning new technologies and tools; we have a small team and each developer should be able to work on every aspect of the system.
Please note: this is a full-time, on-site position. We would prefer you to work in our Zephyr Cove office, but we also have offices in White Plains, NY or Nashville, TN that you could work out of. If you're interested, please email matt.motherway -at- informais.com (and put “Hacker News” in the subject). Thanks.
