Position: Senior Mobile Dev, full time, on site only (relocation okay).
Our sites educate and entertain 50+ million people a year. Work on something with actual scale. Mostly LAMP backends, but we love the right tool for the job. We're looking for a mobile dev with some Android & iOS experience. You'll do mobile development for various education & mobile apps, rock that code review, and enjoy what you're doing (we don't hire people who don't). Because we get a crazy amount of web traffic, we can direct a lot to our mobile apps and make awesome new ideas blow up overnight.
Please mention HN, an app you've developed, and the largest team you've worked with. Your email will go straight to the Director of Technology (me) and skip the HR folks.
I dread having to set up mail servers. Setting up a typical dovecot + postfix install with a webmail frontend that looks as good as gmail should be as easy and simple as setting up wordpress, but it isn't even close.
I feel the same way about discrete math and numerical analysis (a mix of calc 2 and algorithms). These are the first things I look for on a transcript.
Until opentable can actually get reservations right, it sounds pretty irrelevant to me. EVERY time I've tried to get reservations on opentable, they're either not available for 2+ hours, or not available at all. Then when I call, they invariably have tables for every time slot. Basic functionality is missing here...
60k might be a bit much... we can often get a mostly functional app off the ground for 30k. It just depends on specs.
Web MVPs (landing page with a signup form) can be done easily from anywhere between $200-1000. Yes, I realize there's stuff like unbounce, but even with those, they still take a couple hours to set up and properly split test. If you've never done this before, you can easily burn through that very quickly, and even if you have done this before, and you're valuing your time as any good founder should, then you're burning through that value allotment very quickly.
As for the foreign quotes, I've taken over plenty of jobs where it was started by a foreign firm for a tenth of the cost of what US firms charge... quality is usually terrible, and the reason I took over is because they couldn't get it finished. It's occasionally been so bad that we had to scrap their entire project within 6 months.
