Houston, TX

CS Disco - www.csdisco.com - demo.csdisco.com

We build tools to help great lawyers do more. Our first product is 10x faster, 10x cheaper eDiscovery software called Disco.

Disco ingests, analyzes, and indexes hundreds of thousands to tens of millions of documents per case and allow lawyers to search, review, and produce them for use in court. The idea is to help lawyers turn raw documents and email into evidence.

We are funded by Camara & Sibley LLP's internal technology group, Casi Labs. Disco customers include big firms like K&L Gates and Morgan Lewis, medium firms and boutiques like Adams & Reese, Winstead, and Gibbs & Bruns, and corporate litigants like AIG, Cameron, and Westlake Chemical.

The team includes a YC W '10 alum, the former CIO of Sonic Foundry, the youngest graduate in the history of Harvard Law School, and lawyers from a variety of big firms. Tech stack is Lucene, RavenDB, C# / .NET for application, and C for machine learning.

We are hiring for engineering (work on classifying documents based on features of the documents, data set, case, primary law, and lawyers' past classifications of other documents), operations (handling collection and ingestion of data and interfacing with customers), and sales ($60k base + 10% commission, first month commission only).

Send applications to krambs@csdisco.com for engineering and operations roles and to cece@csdisco.com for sales roles.

Burlingame, CA (between SF and Palo Alto)

TellApart is hiring: Dev ops engineers, Hadoop/data-pipeline engineers, Generalist engineers who want to build data products.

We help ecommerce companies use their customer data to improve their shopping experience.

- Our core retargeting business is growing extremely quickly, but we need more great engineers to build out more data products that will have massive impact on ecommerce--both helping retailers grow their businesses and improving the experience of hundred of millions of shoppers.

- We're building systems that have to deal with scale: 60K qps, 1TB data generated per day.

- Our business model means our machine learning and predictive models have to work, if not we'll lose a ton of money.

- Here's a glimpse of what our engineering team has done and a peek into our engineering culture: http://tellaparteng.tumblr.com/

I'm just chiming in to say we're always hiring. Some of our best team members have come from HN. http://www.matasano.com/careers/

One thing that is interesting with these "always hiring" shops - Do you have a high turnover or do you constantly extend the office space?

We don't have high turnover. We're in a rapidly expanding field (demand far outstrips supply in software security), and we're selective, by which I mean we could grow a lot faster than we have over the last 8 years if we elected not to hold quality constant.

Liverpool, UK (preferred) or UK REMOTE (considered)

Error Creative Studio (http://www.errorstudio.co.uk), is a digital creative studio building websites, applications, dashboards and apps for lots of interesting clients, and we're developing our own products too. We'd love you to join us.

We are looking for a generalist Ruby and PHP developer who is comfortable with front-end development and sysadmin tasks. Our stack varies from project to project, but includes:

- Rails, Sinatra, Drupal, and Wordpress websites, deployed with Capistrano

- MySQL and MongoDB databases, with SOLR for search

- Ubuntu on our bare-metal servers, provisioned using Chef

- Front-end development using JQuery, LESS and the usual gamut of interesting libraries in Javascript and CSS

- Git for SCM

You'll be comfortable collaborating on a range of projects, taking the lead on technology choices, learning new things every day, and taking part in every area of the business. We are specifically looking for help with the development of a large Rails project, but there are always lots of other things going on - Skype bots, Wordpress sites, nascent ideas for mobile apps; if you have an idea, pitch it and make it happen!

We're a relaxed bunch, and working at Error is both interesting and fun. We're committed to investing in you, and you'll have the option of a share of the business after your first year of employment. We'll obviously be providing you with whatever hardware you need to do your job; we're Mac people but you can choose whatever you like.

Error's lovely studio is in Liverpool, but we'd certainly consider a UK-based remote employee.

If this appeals, get in touch with Ed Jones at ed@errorstudio.co.uk
