Austin, TX, Fulltime, Invodo (http://www.invodo.com/html/about/jobs/)
We are a startup that's growing customer-wise and employee-wise. If you're interested in one, feel free to email me directly at work (mbrace@invodo.com) if you prefer it to be handed off, but we're small enough that you can feel comfortable just sending it to careers@invodo.com.
For developers, the skills listed for each job is pretty long. However, this isn't just a list of buzz-words to catch folks, these are technologies/etc. that we actually use.
