I have no affiliation with these folks, but here’s a job they have posted!
http://www.accessibilityoz.com/2015/06/were-hiring/
For an all-round developer, front and back end, but then accessibly : ) It’s Oz, meaning the job is in a strange faraway land down under, with drop bears and stuff, but if you’re already living there or willing to brave the wildlife…
I thought there was specifially a jobs forum but I didn’t see it listed in the categories…
There USED to be a category for jobs. Don’t know what happened to it, but I’ve posted one or two in there, myself.
Yes, there was until a few days ago. It didn’t seem to be very useful, though, so it’s been removed. You two are the first to notice. (IMHO, you should get a prize for that, but don’t hold your breath. )
@Stomme_poes is the one who noticed a lack, thereof; I just chimed in a wee bit confuzzed that it wasn’t there, anymore. 
V/r,

Benetech is a non-profit, based in 'murica, whose goals are using technology to help people (esp people with disabilities or little access to fancy technology), improve literacy (for those with learning disabilities or low/no vision), human rights (creating data systems so other non-profits can help people like refugees), software to manage clean water/water conservation for a better environment, and Benetech Labs, where all sorts of software is developed that for-profit businesses aren’t able to invest in can be planned and developed.
If you’ve heard of anything they’ve developed, you’ve probably heard of Bookshare. Quite of few of my friends rely on Bookshare to have access to books.
Basically, they’re like open-source FLOSS hippies except organised enough to make an actual functioning unit.

Not sure if there’s one place they want you to work, they list a few large American cities, so it may not matter so long as you can work at one of them.
Slack is looking too, probably seeings how their interface is currently not accessible to a lot of people. I hear all sorts of people enjoying “how awesome Slack is” and yet a lot of friends of mine can, at best, interface poorly via IRC. Bleh. Let’s get some people in there to fix that. And you’ll get paid!
Of course, like all fancy hipster tech companies, this one is in, yeah, SanFran, 'Merka.
