I'm the cofounder of http://www.submate.com and we are currently looking for a CTO.
Quick pitch: based on your daily commute SubMate introduce you to cool new people and things to do in your areas.
We are based in Paris and the startup is pretty young (only 3months old) but we already have been selected at multiple startup competition: Innovate 100, The Next Web, Plugg and Nonick (we won that one).
SubMate been developed in RoR.

This is a cool idea. I often see the same people on the subway (New York) and after a few times conversations start (many people probably for dating possibilities). Good luck!
hi. i am currently based in scotland and looking to move to London. would be very interested to start to work for a startup, specially if their founders are hanging on HN :)
Max is obviously a great person to talk to. However if that doesn't work out, please consider youDevise (http://www.youdevise.com/careers) - we like moving great people to London!
We even have companies that actually use FP in products (Erlang) and some Haskell hackers...
The scene here sent half a dozen people to StartUp School and a couple of teams got interviews at YCombinator - and we've had three teams at Seedcamp (including 1 winner) so you don't need to move to London...
Come along or ping me on gordon AT hypernumbers DOT com
This is very interesting to me. I'm an aspiring Haskeller considering moving from London. Can you be more specific than Scotland? There seems to be Edinburgh, Aberdeen, and Glasgow on that link you provided. Are they all equally good?
Klaut, drop me a mail at: bastianlehmann@gmail.com. We're a small startup based in London & the North East. We have some seed funding, a kick-ass product and want the best people to work for with us and drive their ideas.
We're looking for a Scrum Product Owner in Zürich: http://www.liip.ch/de/company/jobs/ - Scrum knowledge optional, but motivation to learn it and experience handling clients required. We're also always on the lookout for (really) talented php devs.
My company iPlatform is looking for great devs to join us in Soho, London - we're building products to help companies manage conversations online, funded by a service side building Facebook apps for big brands. http://theiplatform.com/jobs/ - we code in Python. Come say hello!
We're recruiting in London, not quite a startup but a Research & Development lab for Yell with a startup vibe.
It looks like we might soon be heavy on great front-end people and that our hiring of back-end people is lagging, so we're becoming desperate for innovative people who know JVM related tech forwards and backwards (J2EE, Spring, Groovy, Clojure, etc) and who can use that to green-field from scratch as well as integrate with brown-field (a lot of data we need is still in legacy systems, though we have a roadmap to move it somewhere sane).
We are still looking for a few more people on the front-end. Aside from people who know JavaScript intimately (you'll have a tough quiz to pass during interview), we're also looking for someone who has been inside Android for a while and can untap the potential there. If you have C/C++ knowledge too then all the better as we're keeping our eye on Google's NaCl. Any OpenGL experience would be nice too but certainly isn't high on our current priorities.
Finally we need a designer, one who really understands the limitations of the different devices and yet can turn around flawless and highly communicative work quicker than we can bring it to life with tech.
For all of these roles whilst experience is necessary what we're really looking for is a deep passion for what you do and a real lust for learning and applying what you learn.
Drop me a line at david.kitchen@yelllabs.com and I'll ensure we get back in touch.
I know, it's terrible. Worse still, IBM seem to have had a good time in here and we're having to work with Websphere ESB and Portal. One of the key assets is the data and whilst we're free to persist new data however we choose the legacy stuff is currently locked in those systems and so we are hiring to help free it.
Our front end innovation and what we do for small business is where we're focused, but that back end has to be tamed for us to get anything significant done. The legacy stuff is why we need people with silly amounts of Java stuff, whereas the front-end is really mobile and device driven.
In that there are considerable shares and a do or die commitment, no it's not.
It is a R&D lab after all, failing is perfectly acceptable so long as we can learn from that and apply that to what else we do. Failing isn't going to be terminal, so of course a research entity isn't the same as a startup.
youDevise is a growing 50-person agile financial software company with a couple of very successful financial web applications. We're hiring in London (sorry, not Berlin). Read about jobs at http://www.youdevise.com/careers and learn more about us on our blog at https://dev.youdevise.com .
I'm the CTO and handle all the hiring. Would be very happy to hear from anyone interested in working in Europe (whether or not you have the right to work here - we do immigration if the fit is right).
Senior Rails Dev needed in Amsterdam/Utrecht. They are building a web app, predicting future energy scenarios based on your assumptions - like how co2 emission, electricity and heating cost, dependence on foreign countries will change. I'm leaving this great team and project for my own venture. http://www.workingwithrails.com/opportunity/2450
Technologies: Rails 2.3, Ruby 1.9, Haml/Sass, Rspec, Git, jQuery
Very competitive benefits. But of course, it depends on the package of your choosing.
The Energy Transition Model is a complex web application in which users can build their own 'future energy scenario'. It tries to answer detailed questions such as: how much less CO2 will this or that country emit when it builds a Nuclear Power Plant, or wind mill parcs? What much will it cost? And how dependent will you be on foreign companies?
For this end, we are building an extended Ruby on Rails app, with a rich interface which shows complex charts, using no flash. (instead we use jQuery and Canvas.) To make live easy for ourselves, we use HAML, SASS and Git.
You will work in a small company of 9 dedicated employees.
Salary is well above average. Expats are also very welcome.

Yahoo is hiring in London - engineers (both backend and frontend) for Yahoo answers and Eurosports. We are also looking for geo engineers with good C++ skills for the GeoPlanet team. Drop us a CV at cheil@yahoo-inc.com.
They are rated one of the top companies to work for in the UK, and you've probably seen some of the innovative blog posts they've been writing recently (free ipads, geeks by the sea, etc)
Their CEO is on twitter, @neildavidson, I'm sure he'd ask the development interviewers to pay special attention to anyone that mentioned HN to him after they applied...
We're hiring in London. Both experienced internet veterans but also people straight out of school. We're a small (10 full time) but profitable consumer internet start-up where you will get direct exposure to the founders and all aspects of the business.

I'm particularly looking for a great frontend/UI/UX designer/developer.

In addition, nobody knows J2EE inside and out, it is far too big.
Our front end innovation and what we do for small business is where we're focused, but that back end has to be tamed for us to get anything significant done. The legacy stuff is why we need people with silly amounts of Java stuff, whereas the front-end is really mobile and device driven.
