Custora (YC W11) - http://www.custora.com - New York, NY - Engineering and Data Science

Marketing used to be an exercise in one-to-many communication: billboards, magazine ads, and - more recently - having a powerful social media presence. At Custora, we’re helping to turn this model on its head, using mountains of data to help our customers direct the right campaigns to the right users rather than blasting the same message to the largest audience possible.

We're growing quickly and looking to fill positions from Front-End Engineering to Data Science. We're analyzing data for well over 500,000,000 end customers, and this number is growing fast. We're building a marketing experimentation platform that's usable by entire marketing teams and we need your help to build new statistical models, to build the infrastructure to run those models, and to develop creative and intuitive ways of presenting our findings to our users.

We code in Rails, Angular, and Couscous, our distributed computation framework that runs statistical models with R and Spark.

Our job postings are at https://www.custora.com/careers. I'm more than happy to answer any questions and tell you more about us, so feel free to reach out to me at martin@custora.com.

Curiosity | Chicago, USA | ONSITE, FULL-TIME | https://curiosity.com | Frontend Developer

We build web and native apps that millions of people all over the world use every day to get smarter. We’re looking for a driven front-end developer with an agile software development background and great design taste. The ideal candidate has experience in translating ideas and designs into amazing experiences for users along with 4-6 years experience in the field.

You’ll primarily be working on a HTML5/CSS3/JS stack (migrating to ES 2015) backed by Python with chances to delve into our iOS (Swift) and Android (Java) codebases. Python (particularly in the context of Flask and Jinja2 templates) and Swift are nice to have, but not a deal breaker if you’re willing to learn.

We’ve raised $6M from the best Venture Capital firms in Chicago as well as the Discovery Channel. We pay very competitive market-rate compensation, 15 days paid vacation + sick time, full health benefits (Tri-Net) including dental, life insurance, etc.

InsureMyTrip | Warwick, RI | Full Stack Developer / Development Lead | ONSITE

InsureMyTrip is the industry leader in travel insurance aggregation. We pride ourselves on our forward-thinking technology, work/life balance and positive team dynamic.

We're looking for several full-stack developers and a Development Lead to join our team. We are currently in the process of renovating our core architecture, breaking up a monolithic PHP code-base into a modular service-based model written in Python / Flask on the back-end, and HTML/CSS/JS (using Aurelia) with a dab of PHP/Python glue on the front-end.

We're happy to talk to candidates who lean more towards front-end or back-end!

On the front-end, we're looking for people with deep knowledge of HTML, CSS and JavaScript. Experience with JavaScript frameworks such as Angular or Aurelia is a plus.

On the back-end, we're looking for people with a strong knowledge base of network and web fundamentals, RESTful architecture and API design.

If you've got both, we're doubly interested in meeting with you!

Contact jobs@insuremytrip.com.

Hitmeister - http://www.hitmeister.de/ - Cologne, Germany (Full Time, ONSITE, VISA)

Web developer: full-stack, frontend, or backend. Most of us work at all levels of the web stack, but if your strengths lie in just frontend or backend work, that's okay too.

We're a small team (15 people) using PHP, Zend Framework, MySQL, MongoDB, ElasticSearch, RabbitMQ, and memcached. We have a customer-facing site, a JSON API, logistics software, and an internal admin site, all of which we build and maintain internally.

Hitmeister.de is one of the largest online shopping portals in Germany, with over 2.1 million customers to date. We have a warehouse from which we sell items directly, but we also have a marketplace with over 2,400 sellers running their own shops. We're seeing solid growth and we're looking for more programming talent to grow and improve the site.

Speaking German is helpful, but by no means required. I'm from the US and we have 3 other non-German developers. If you aren't an EU citizen, we are glad to help with visa issues as long as you qualify for an EU Blue Card. If you have a CS degree or at least 5 years of full-time experience, then you probably qualify. We only allow on-site work, but we'll help you relocate.

Here's the job description in German:

If you have any questions, feel free to get in contact with me (info in my profile), or you can apply directly at jobs@hitmeister.de.
