Ask HN: Are there any jobs in the Denver area?
I'm a Senior in college and am looking for Junior position development jobs, preferably in Denver area or even remote!
I'm excited about about Javascript and the web of frameworks that have come out of it. I have also been diving into functional programming and see it becoming essential for large code bases.
Any help would be much appreciated. You may try the Boulder area. Both TechStars and Boomtown Boulder have programs based in Boulder and thus many startups flowing through the area. You may be able to find an internship or entry level position through one of their portfolio companies or even try reaching out directly to the program to see if they may know of any of their companies looking. On Monday will be posted automatically a thread for jobs. Remember to look and post in the correct thread.

A lot of those are probably posted by contracting agencies, and there are a number of contracting agencies where you also might find something. In Denver there's a lot of telecom and defense, as well as the Boulder mini-oasis. You say Javascript, so I'm assuming you want web work, but software lets you do much more than web, in almost any industry. Instead of focusing on your technology, think if there's any industry that sounds really interesting. Shoot me an email, in profile -- there's a Denver developers slack channel that has a few job listings. And it's a good place to meet other devs in town. I'd also suggest taking a look at http://www.builtincolorado.com/. There used to be a staffing service around the turn of the century where I had success finding work in my field. 'Denver Technical Staffing' was their name. Dunno if they're still in business now though. With that skill set, you probably want to check out the firms at Denver startup week.
