Looking for strong Perl developers for a company in Hanover, Germany. They're stable, profitable and they've been in business for years. Hanover is a beautiful, bike-friendly, mid-sized town in the north of Germany. The cost of living is low and the quality of life is high. It's a green-friendly town and hosts one of the largest Oktoberfests in the world. While we're listing "desired" skills, keep in mind that the company is happy to be flexible on most of this so long as you can convince them that you can help improve their systems:
In return: Why Hanover? Your job will not just be to hack Perl. You'll be actively working to help modernize their systems and improve standards. You'll have a high level of responsibility. In return, you get to enjoy a friendly, beautiful city and culture. Take a two week road trip across Europe and still have a month's vacation when you get back to work.Send email to jobs at allaroundtheworld dot fr.

Btw, wish you all the best in your recruiting endeavours!
For the Blue Card, you can change employers as much as you want because it's attached to the employee rather than the employer. Further, depending on the country, after two or three years, you can then legally take work in any other EEA country (except the UK, Ireland and Denmark, all of whom opted out of the Blue Card program). There are some technicalities involved, but those are the basics.
Germany's program is particularly great because you can get a permanent residency permit after only two years if you learn German (to a B2 level, I think), or after three years if you don't speak German. In other words, it's a permanent entry into the EU. I'm an American living in France and I'm married to a French woman, so I don't have to worry, but otherwise, I'd apply for the Blue Card in a heartbeat!
Taste of German humor? :) Kidding aside, Good Luck with your search.
I wonder if I should apply anyway lol. It sounds like a dream job.
We want developers who like to have fun and socialize outside of work, but care about their jobs, too. We're looking for UX designers, front-end and back-end developers.
UX designer: use Photoshop, Gimp, or whatever makes your socks roll up and down and you know how to make Web and/or mobile applications work for customers. Knowledge of HTML, JavaScript and CSS also needed.
Front-end developer: you can make Web sites do exactly what you want them to do, regardless of the browser or operating system the web site is running on. Knowledge of HTML, JavaScript and CSS required.
Back-end developers: you know what it takes to power the back-end of large web sites. You understand scalability issues and can explain the difference between an inner and outer join. You know what O(log N) is and why it's important. Your programming language history isn't important because you're good enough to learn a new language if needed.
All positions: not looking for rock stars. Looking for competent technical talent who are willing to move to Europe (unless you're already here). We have many expats working here and we'll even help pay for Dutch lessons, if you want them.
We also like people who understand business because you'll be expected to make many of your own decisions without having to ask permission from management for every little thing that you do. You will have the power to get stuff done, work with a great bunch of people and be able to spend your five weeks of vacation time cruising across Europe and discovering why Amsterdam is such a beautiful city.

It seems to almost be a common denominator that when Dutch companies stop valuing their employees (treat them badly, seeing them as expenses, etc.) they start abusing this tax reduction to recruit cheap foreign labour; often after they've burned their bridges in the small and tightly-knit local tech community.
So ... If you're a foreigner and are considering moving to the Netherlands, be careful with companies where the majority of employees is not native, since there's a good change you won't get to experience the respectful work culture Dutch companies are generally famous for.
If you're already used to a culture with a greater power-distance (e.g. Russia, US, India) it might still not be all that bad for you though and either way it's pretty easy to find good jobs elsewhere once you're in the country.
They were fairly up front about their business-first mentality, and otherwise did make a convincing case for having interesting & challenging work available at all ends of the stack.
Downsides obviously being that pay is low relative to SF, and housing in Amsterdam is not particularly cheap. The city is also not for everyone, more so than most places. However, from a tech POV I don't think I would have been bored. Can't speak to the office culture, but I didn't get any scary vibes.
Looking for a Javascript developer with some Haskell understanding and an interest in doing growth related work with me at a ~10 people startup.
You'll be helping me with Scrive's growth, which involves doing some A/B testing, some Haskell, some support and a lot of JS. You don't need to know Swedish.
In return you'll be working at Sveavägen in a sweet office with very nice people. You can work a day or so a week from home, and we practice "flextid". You'll also get to disrupt some seriously wasteful practices related to printing papers and scanning signatures. And you'll interact with Poland and Swedens finest Haskell programmers.
Also Haskell. Haskell Haskell Haskell.

CS Disco - www.csdisco.com - demo.csdisco.com
We build tools to help great lawyers do more. Our first product is 10x faster, 10x cheaper eDiscovery software called Disco.
Disco ingests, analyzes, and indexes hundreds of thousands to tens of millions of documents per case and allow lawyers to search, review, and produce them for use in court. The idea is to help lawyers turn raw documents and email into evidence.
We are funded by Camara & Sibley LLP's internal technology group, Casi Labs. Disco customers include big firms like K&L Gates and Morgan Lewis, medium firms and boutiques like Adams & Reese, Winstead, and Gibbs & Bruns, and corporate litigants like AIG, Cameron, and Westlake Chemical.
The team includes a YC W '10 alum, the former CIO of Sonic Foundry, the youngest graduate in the history of Harvard Law School, and lawyers from a variety of big firms. Tech stack is Lucene, RavenDB, C# / .NET for application, and C for machine learning.
We are hiring for engineering (work on classifying documents based on features of the documents, data set, case, primary law, and lawyers' past classifications of other documents), operations (handling collection and ingestion of data and interfacing with customers), and sales ($60k base + 10% commission, first month commission only).
Send applications to krambs@csdisco.com for engineering and operations roles and to cece@csdisco.com for sales roles.
