I always check them out with lots of hope, but then am dismayed to find that they are usually entirely filled with technical roles and almost completely devoid of any marketing/product/business roles.

This is likely in part due to the HN audience composition, but my hunch is that its also partly because people are making assumptions about the HN audience composition.

I'd love to see one post for technical hiring and one post for business hiring. I think calling it out as its own post would actually encourage people to post those other jobs that they might normally think are not appropriate for the HN audience.

As someone posting in that thread and in our case we don't post those jobs not for the reason you mentioned but (1) because we just don't have many of those jobs available and (2) because we already know people we may to hire so those job positions are filled even before the job is posted/advertised.
