TrialReach is a VC-backed startup solving the problem of matching patients to clinical trials. We’ve raised over $20m in funding and have centrally located offices in London (eng + product) and New York (commerical). Most importantly, we’re solving a problem that makes a real difference to the lives of millions of patients worldwide.
We’ve developed a question-based algorithm for probabilistically matching patients to trials (take it for a spin with our initial US diabetes release: http://trialreach.com/diabetes.html) and we’re recruiting engineers for our London office. Our back-end is predominantly Python.
We're also interested in talking to anyone with experience of data architecture for healthcare products. In particular this would mean a good understanding of available medical ontologies and a solid theoretical understandig of database architectures.
If you have any questions feel free to email jobs at trialreach.com (please mention that you saw this on HN and these will come through to me). Also happy to discuss internships as long as you’re available for at least 3 months.

Our back-end stack is Linux/Postgres/Python/Django. Our front end uses the usual HTML/CSS/JS with some jQuery and various javascript libraries for graphing and displaying data.
It's a pity the article wasn't able to dig deeper into the underlying causes.
I would suspect that the problem needs to be addressed much earlier on by both improving the quality of school tuition in engineering required subjects (maths, sciences etc) as well as raising the profile of engineering careers among both children and the general public.

The Role:
Our stack is Linux/Postgres/Python/Django. One day you might be translating visual designs into HTML, the next day you might be working our search and patient matching algorithms. The one certainty we can offer you is that you’ll never be bored.
Ideally we're looking for people to work on our whole stack, but we're also happy to talk to front-end (HTML/CSS/JS) specialists.
If you don't have experience with Python but have worked on something similar (Ruby, PHP etc) then that's fine too!
Where do I apply?
We're happy to consider full or part-time applicants as wells as students looking for internships. You must have the right to work in the UK.
We're starting interviewing candidates from next week, so if you're interested, please get in touch - zeshan at trialreach.com
Slightly worrying to see the conversation in the twitter widget between Bill Scott and a Techcrunch editor about this story where he has to explain that Java is not the same as JavaScript...
You just have to hope that their 'client' knows their shit and can tell the difference. But in short, it's useful to use recruiters for opportunities that aren't on the job boards and to poll the market.
The Role: We're looking for for front and back-end developers, but ideally you will be comfortable working on our whole stack (Linux/Python/Django through to HTML/JS/CSS with jQuery) even if you're stronger on one end than the other.
Compensation includes base salary + bonus + stock options

The advantage of off-the-shelf companies used to be much greater when the company registration process was slower and all done off-line. These days it's less relevant.
Retirement accounts aren't usually held entirely in cash except very near the end. For younger people the bulk would be invested in equity i.e. funding businesses and thus being fed back into the economy.
Its money taken out of circulation that could have otherwise been spend on consumption. Buying IBM stock in my IRA doesn't do much for the economy compared to taking the same funds and buying an IPAD or 100 happy meals.
In the unlikely event that the debt ceiling isn't raised, the government will need to decide which debts not to pay. I imagine it won't want to default on any bond payments, so that will leave any non-bond payments such as federal wages, medicare, medicaid etc.
In addition to this, the US credit rating is likely to fall, and potentially confidence in the dollar. If the value of the dollar decreases then this will lead to imports becoming more expensive, leading to inflation.
