CloudFlare https://www.cloudflare.com/ | San Francisco, CA; London, UK; Singapore, SG; Urbana-Champaign, IL; Austin, TX | VISA, ONSITE

CloudFlare is building a better Internet -- performance and security optimization at the edge. Our long term goal is to give every site the same performance, security, and reliability that major sites like Google and Facebook accomplish, without any specialized network hardware or complicated administration. We enhance millions of sites, including this one. We're hiring for a variety of roles -- started 2015 at 128, ended around 220, doubling again in 2016.

This is a perfect time to join -- product market fit is established, but there's a lot of great engineering, product, sales, and support work to be done. We've publicly said we're profitable and on track for long term independent success. You may wish to check out our blog to see the kinds of engineering work we do. (https://blog.cloudflare.com/). https://www.cloudflare.com/join-our-team has a listing of positions. We're always hiring for operations/SRE, sales, general systems engineering (mostly in Go, nginx, and network, as well as DNS at scale), and web development. Specific roles we're keen to hire include:

0) Front End Engineer(s): building new UI/UX to expose controls and data to customers is an increasing portion of what we do. Our current front-end stack is Backbone + Marionette with Browserify and Sass. Our new projects are using React + Redux + Babel + css-modules, and generally adopting Higher Order Components. We're also starting the process of re-imagining our main WWW Front-end stack with a migration to Redux.

1) Data Engineering(s) -- We have a ton of different technologies that our data engineers work with, and they are a really strong core team here. Kafka, PostgreSQL, Docker, Mesos, Marathon, Chronos, nginx, and so many more technologies.

2) Product Security Engineer -- We have a lot of applications and need more talented software engineers who love to break and fix. We need hands on engineers who are not afraid to dive in and drive fixes to completion, and evangelize security.

3) Systems Engineer (Austin) -- We are hiring systems engineers at all of our offices, but our Austin office is growing very quickly. Our Austin office is working on some really new and innovative projects. Web and distributed systems built with Go, Node, Docker, and much more.

If you're interested, please apply through the https://www.cloudflare.com/join-our-team link, our recruiting team looks at every single application from every applicant.

Remote Freelance position. Please apply online at http://frac.tl/careers/

Who We Are

Fractl is a creative marketing agency that fuses data journalism and information design to explore universal human interests in original and daring ways.

The Role

We’re looking for a Data Scientist who can reveal the most interesting and surprising findings in data he/she collects, cleans, models and tests. The ideal candidate will have an excellent grasp of basic statistics, including statistical tests, distributions, and maximum likelihood estimation. A solid understanding of statistical significance is vital, as is the ability to determine if methodologies are sound. Your contributions to Fractl projects will be crucial in ensuring stories are based on meaningful results that truly represent trends in the real world.

Your role in a project will typically begin by assessing potential data sources alongside a data journalist to find one (or several) that has the potential to reveal a compelling story that relates to the client’s products or services. You will then collect the data, scraping it if necessary, before analyzing it through Exploratory Data Analysis and hypothesis testing using such statistical programs at Excel and Tableau. Your juicy discoveries are then presented to an information designer and data journalist for them to produce an engaging visual story and article the general public can enjoy.
