(I hope OK to post:)
Location: Silicon Valley /San Jose, CA/ or Dallas TX.

Current 'app' version is mostly Java/Tomcat, so will need to maintain that while writing a new version, likely mostly D ( possibly Qt depending on GC ). (Also a few lines assembly, C, IOS Objective C, Andorid as clients)
OS will be Gentoo flavor.

There is some fun data structures and some boring HTTP in the project, I'll have to tell you more if you ping us, some of it is fun tech but I don't want it public.

The company is a 7 digit funded start up, a bit more about the project
- http://ceocfointerviews.com/interviews/Apakau14.htm

Ideal candiate is a career programmer/developer, prolific coder would be supper. Experience prefered, a few years out of school might be considered.

Company culture is tech friendly/introvert (as opposed to marketing/business type orgs). Market rate salary, but first few hire we don't have much for reloaction budget(not looking for remote for first year+). Of course 30" monitor, Xeon workstation, good vacation time, gym and more, of course D conference or similar is company expense. There are some trade secrets to keep.

To have a phone chat, please email me your resume/bio to vic (at) apakau.com.  Likely we will be done hiring in a week or 2.
(I plan to cross post on Qt and Vibe.d forums)

You might want to post to D.announce group.
Some D users claim they only check D.announce

Vic, I posted the job to the D Developer Network at LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/groups/Looking-hire-2-3-programmers-3923820%2ES%2E5911023777222787073?trk=groups%2Finclude%2Fitem_snippet-0-b-ttl
Good luck!

Dejan, could you please add yourself as an MVP responsible with the DDN on LinkedIn? http://wiki.dlang.org/People

I also suggest we rename MVPs to Points of Contact.

Didn't know about that page. Now, I kind of feel like I should put more about me on it. :|

I think we need to have more than one pages dedicated to contributors, but my intent with Points of Contact is to have a short list of people responsible with specific topics. For example, for all matters related to dlang.org, the person responsible is... etc.
