Five years, a name change and a complete rewrite later Contentful (https://www.contentful.com) has raised a Series B (total funding close to $20m), got ~100 employees and customers ranging from Jack in the Box, over Nike to Urban Outfitters.
It's been a wild ride, and it doesn't look like it's going to be over anytime soon :)

Berlin, Germany - Contentful - Multiple full-time positions - Visa help
Contentful (https://www.contentful.com) is an API-first content management platform for web and mobile applications and the first cloud-based service to allow content to be distributed across any device, application or platform, with one single input.
Content is managed in a completely presentation-independent format and can be served to all current and future platforms, including iOS, Android, Google Glass or interactive JavaScript apps.
We are still early stage but showed significant traction and have paying customers. We are funded by the world’s leading VCs, Benchmark’s European sister Balderton (MySQL, Redhat, Twitter, New Relic, Dropbox) and SaaS expert Point Nine Capital (ZenDesk, Unbounce, Server Density, Geckoboard). Our advisory board includes key personalities from the BBC, Apple, Rovio, Symantec as well as thought leaders in the Web and Content Management space.
We are a fun international team and growing quickly.
For experienced engineers it would be around 40-70k Euro. Depending how experienced you really are, how the demand for the language is (e.g. higher for iOS), on the stage of the company and how much equity you get.
You need to factor in the cost of living when comparing this to US or UK salaries. For 600 Euro/month you will get a nice multi-room apartment in a central area without sharing it with anybody else. Lunch in a restaurant is about 5 Euro and food in supermarkets probably the highest quality for the cheapest price anywhere.
This is not at all about taking notes? It is about managing todos and events on paper?
Does anybody have a good system for taking notes during a meeting on paper? I prefer digital tools, but recently I've been doing many presentations with screen-sharing, where I cannot type at my computer.
As I'm getting more into sales I've just read a couple of books about the topic.
SPIN Selling is one of them but as an engineer I liked Solution Selling by Michael Bosworth even more, as it gives you a similar, but even more detailed process to follow.
We’re building a cloud-based Content Management platform that’s targeted at developers. We just received funding from prestigious VCs (unannounced).
You say Content Management sucks? That’s exactly what we think, and we see a huge opportunity to do something completely different that plays well with HTML5/JS and native mobile apps. The initial version of our platform is already used by hundreds of customers, from major global media companies to small development agencies (e.g. Viacom).
We already have a team of incredible developers that are working on the next generation of our service. We are looking for a JS dev to join us (Node + Angular).
Interested? Please send an email to [email protected] and I can tell you more.

It’s now time to throw away the prototype of our API and to build a high-performance solution, from scratch. We already have a team for the backend and are now looking for an iOS developer who will create an iOS SDK and example applications.
We’re looking for someone who already has a solid experience in writing and testing iOS applications and that has a good knowledge of the iOS ecosystem and its frameworks (CoreData etc.). You should have a good Computer Science foundation and an authentic interest in working with Objective-C and Cocoa. One of the main jobs besides developing will be to involve the iOS community with talks at conferences and interesting prototypes.
