Factual is hiring engineers and data lovers of all levels in Palo Alto, Los Angeles, and Shanghai.

Remote work is possible for exceptional candidates who are US citizens and living in the US ('exceptional' meaning you are a great engineer and have lots of machine learning/data extraction/NLP/etc. experience that is relevant to what we do).

Factual's vision is to be an awesome and affordable data provider that enables developers, startups, and big companies to focus on innovation instead of data acquisition. We have a terrific team that is still fairly small and an incredible CEO who was previously the co-founder of Applied Semantics (which was bought by Google and became AdSense). Factual has venture funding from Andreessen-Horowitz and our partners/customers include Facebook, Yelp, Foursquare, Trulia, and Newsweek.

There are many challenging problems to work on at all layers of the stack: data cleaning and canonicalization, deduping, storage, serving, APIs, improving data using machine learning, etc. If you love data, Factual is the place to be. Our main criteria are that you're smart and get things done, but you'll get bonus points for experience with Clojure, machine learning, NLP, algorithm design, or Hadoop. Our LA office is our headquarters and our Palo Alto office recently opened so new hires would have a huge impact on the culture there.

You can email me personally at leo -at- factual.com, or view our job postings and apply directly via Jobvite:

Amsterdam, the Netherlands.

Silk (www.silkapp.com) is looking for Front-end engineers and a DevOps engineer.

We're building a product that makes it easy for people to create sites with content that is easy to query, visualize and share. On a deeper level, our vision is to bring the semantic web to the masses and build an amazing company around that.

We're working on many interesting and challenging problems, with a custom-built Haskell graph-database on the back-end and a cutting-edge Functional Reactive client-side framework in Javascript on the front-end.

The team is still small (~9 people), so you'll be able to make a large impact. We are well-funded by top-tier VCs and located in the city center of Amsterdam.

Austin, TX | Senior front-end developer | mobi

Come work for a small, meritocratic company and own the front end of our applications.

We're looking for someone with solid design skills and the ability to translate their design to semantically correct HTML and CSS. Ideally, you don't rely completely on mockup tools like Dreamweaver and can code the CSS by hand. You should have strong opinions about the correct way to architect the design aspect of a webapp. Have you migrated stylesheets to SASS or LESS, integrated JavaScript unit testing into a continuous build process or other cool stuff that a bunch of backend developers have never done? Talk to us.

Programming abilities are strongly desired, but not strictly required. You would necessarily need to do some JavaScript and jQuery as needed for the UI development, but good programming fundamentals and the ability to pick up (or already know) things like Java and SQL would be a huge plus. If you think you might be a fit, contact information is in my profile. Portfolios or github profiles are encouraged. Resumes are also welcome.

Perks include market salary, health/dental/vision/life, unlimited paid vacation plan, 401K.

Amicus Labs - Designing for Law - San Francisco

We’re building software that will radically change how lawyers approach, analyze, and engage with the law. We use advanced case law parsing and tech-enabled human review to construct a detailed outline of the law. Leveraging that data, we can offer litigators legal search tools that are an order of magnitude better than existing offerings, as well as detailed analytics on legal arguments and AI tools that automatically assess and assemble litigation documents.

We're looking to add a designer to our small team of legal-minded engineers (Stanford, Berkeley, Google) and lawyers (Stanford, Columbia).

The law is intricate. Communicating it clearly is a serious design challenge. We are looking for someone who can shape not only our look and feel, but also how lawyers interact with the law.

You:

+ A record of creating beautiful software

+ The ability to implement what you design (HTML5, CSS3, JS)

+ Deep, sincere interest in law

+ Desire to forge a product that will change how justice is done

Us:

+ Backed by the most visionary investors in the world

+ Taking a big swing at truly hard problems

+ Excellent health/dental/vision

+ “No vacation policy” policy

+ Great office across the street from 4th & King Caltrain
