Ask HN: Who Is Hiring Remote Workers? (December 2010 Edition)

121 pointspdelgallego41 comments

Similar to the "Who is Hiring" thread but, please remote positions only.

We have several positions available at Remember The Milk (we're based in Sydney, Australia, but you can work from anywhere):

  - Systems Administrator
  - Software Engineer (Database)
  - Software Engineer (JavaScript)
  - Software Engineer (Scala)
  - User Interface Designer

For full details see: http://www.rememberthemilk.com/about/jobs.rtm

I knew you were hiring cause I saw it on some newly launched job board some time ago (reddit maybe?) but I was wondering: since you are in sydney, isn't time difference with remote workers an issue?

(I love my current remote job and don't want another but I think RTM rocks :)

A friend of mine applied for a position at RTM but the staff didn't even respond to the application. They didn't even respond to the follow-up email asking if they received the application.

You might be hiring, but you don't seem to be doing it very well.

Maybe they just forgot to reply. It's hard to remember to do things.

I am starting a consulting business and am looking to hire subcontractors to work initially on a per-project basis (projects can be as small as a few hours) and potentially on a part-time ongoing basis. Focus is on developing Ruby on Rails applications.

The business is based in Boston, though you can be from anywhere in the world.

I currently need:

- HTML/CSS Designers - Ruby/Rails Developers - QA/Testing

Email me if you're interested (address in profile)

We're looking for a Rails and/or Android guy to help out. I'm the CTO of Zazu -- http://getzazu.com --, where we're building the Smartest Damn Alarm Clock (but we're so much more than that). Get in touch with me at marc@getzazu.com

We're based out of Boston, but you can work from anywhere.

We just filled a L3 spot, but we have 51+ employees working remote. And you can see when we post open positions here: http://www.site5.com/about/careers/

We mostly over the next 6 months will be hiring L1 and L2 customer service / support reps. Every so often though we need a Ruby on Rails software developer or something higher up such as an L3 system admin. Emailing us your resume if you are interested is a good way so we can contact you when a position comes up.

Would be neat if there was an RSS feed on http://www.site5.com/about/careers/ so people could be alerted to new postings...

Yep coming very soon, been working on converting that over, sorry!

Interesting -- I've been a happy site5 customer for years, though I've never needed much customer service.

Still good to know you are looking to draw from the right pools.

Thanks!

Please mention if you're willing to hire a remote intern.

I think is a very good question, I have been looking to learn about UX/UI and hardware/administration/vps but without experience is not easy to find something.

I just opened another thread "Ask HN: Who is hiring interns?" http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=1957603

Hope we can find something interesting.

We are looking to hire remote iOS developers: http://www.fiplab.com/careers.html

Looks like Ubuntu is mostly hiring remote workers http://webapps.ubuntu.com/employment/

Just to point out - "Please note that in general preference will be given to existing community contributors."

Also, I would add that those job listings haven't much changed in months. They are possibly just collecting CVs.

Nope, it's more that we just have several open positions that haven't been filled. Sometimes a single posting goes up for multiple positions, so it will stay up until all the positions have been filled.

(And while it's true that we prefer existing community members, it's not been a hard requirement for any of the open positions I've been involved with. You should certainly at least be familiar with Ubuntu and FOSS and support its goals, though.)

Maybe can reuse an existing spreadsheet? https://spreadsheets2.google.com/ccc?key=tixDMXKPtbNapfqYx16...

Already has a column "Remote/Onsite/Freelance/Other"

having it here is better to read and to comment on if people have previous experience working with those guys and would like to recommend them. Besides spreadsheets don't make a good discussion (maybe can be used to list them so as to make them quickly readable)

I like this ongoing thread. This should be on HN every month....

I have a client (stealth startup) who I've been working with for a little over a month. I'm consulting with them while they get an MVP out the door. After that, I'm shepherding them to stand on their own. I'll let them speak about their funding themselves; however, for reference, they've had zero problems paying my invoices promptly. They are seeking an EMPLOYEE (remote is A-OK) for a PT/FT Ruby on Rails developer. Particularly interested in people with experience using: Heroku, Test::Unit, Capybara, Rails 3, and developing/maintaining RESTful APIs in Rails.
