I like this idea.

After reading the comments here and visiting your site, I decided to see if there was specialty information on developing software for silicon (i.e. FPGAs) as that is very different than software development at Facebook or Google--yet all might fall under the description Software Developer. I'm thinking some way to differentiate that so that people can figure out if they want to make horizontal moves or what a horizontal move might be like would be useful--especially when you get more reviews.

Another question I have is about the incentive for people to provide job descriptions--are you thinking karma or some other benefit?

This idea has a lot of really interesting crossover--for instance just confining it to the developer space, not only is it interesting to contrast being a developer at say NPM, Mozilla, Facebook, Google, Maxim, Xilinx and Qualcomm, but to also see those development environments and tools (i.e. Twitch style) is interesting. I know there was someone who was doing that and I followed it briefly a few years ago.

Lots of really good feedback here. Thank you.

In order to ensure quality and qualified job descriptions, i've had to hire the submissions. Unfortunately, philanthropic motivations have not as of yet been sufficient.

That being said, if you want to make a submission for silicon i'd love to see it.
