Academia.edu is hiring intern engineers in San Francisco.
Academia.edu helps academics follow the latest research in their field. Here are a few bullet points that sum up the atmosphere in our team:
- obsession with exceptional engineering
- obsession with building a great web product, and a great user experience
- intellectually inquisitive - we like delving into ideas, whatever the ideas are about
- fun and friendly - we enjoy each other's company a lot, and have a great deal of respect for each other.
We are hiring intern engineers. Here are some of the technologies we work with: Rails, Nginx, Node.js, Redis, Memcached. We are based in downtown San Francisco.
Domain was bought in 1999. They did not restrict .edu to accredited universitities-and-colleges-and-things until 2001, and academia.edu was grandfathered in.
VoltDB is looking for Summer 2011 interns in Boston area. We're small, so our interns basically become engineers for a few months, and have lots of flexibility on what they want to work on. Also, as an open source company, you can point people to actual shipping code you wrote in a future job interview.
I applied a while back to Adobe through a guy I know on the Air team, he's since left, and I haven't heard anything back but your team looks cool! Still hopeful though, not quite sure how Adobe works company wise.

We're a sustainable fashion start-up that has a full time developer but could use some tech help. Our fabric is made from denim factory scraps. It would be a good way for a programmer interested in business to learn marketing (I've learned a huge amount over the past 8 months).
Just shoot me a message at kevin@recojeans.com if you're interested.
We are at thisorthat.com. We're helping users compare anything (and we're hosting the TechStars Startup Madness tournament) -- looking for developers and writers/editors
Hey, what does your frontpage have anything to do with what you do? Maybe you're using linkbait articles to attract users to your actual feature which is unrelated and buried deep?
Thanks for the question, it's a very good one. We are still working on developing an information architecture that makes more sense. As it stands, we've focused the home page on our editorial content rather than UGC (which tend to focus on Bieber for the most part and has massively quality variance). As noted, some of our better content & features often get buried.
We're trying to change the way personal history is recorded. Right now, we're focused on letting families and friends remember the lives of those who've passed away.

If any CompSci students in the Toronto Area are interesting in working on a Massively Multiplayer Online Roleplaying Game this summer, shoot me an email -
But I can't seem to find any intern positions. Possibly just have to apply for the Software Dev position, and mention you're looking for an internship. Do you mind clarifying, sanj?
cough I'm seeking an internship for the summer. 2 semesters away from a BS in CS. Just got my first 'fun' test app onto the iOS market, cloudedbox.com/supersoaker.html. I'm still working on the proof that I'm worthy, but I cannot tell you how much I'd like to experience the techniques and tribulations of software engineering with a company anywhere in North California.

I too was bummed to get lesser money in my paycheck as an entry level engineer than as an intern in the same company. But then I realized that I get stocks, health insurance, travel and education fund, bonuses and get reimbursed for a lot of crap.
We have about 50,000 companies hiring interns at http://www.internships.com - and it's FREE for employers to post positions and for students to search... Good luck to all!
