You love getting insights from data, whether it be via measurements or through data visualisations. You are quantitative and evidence-driven. You’re curious, interested in slicing datasets many ways to find interesting trends; then you reproduce and revalidate these earlier results by following formal methods. You have an engineering mindset, able to help build production-worthy systems.

You'll work with our product development team to help build features to let users get insights from their data.

Collective Health, ( http://collectivehealth.com/#careers ), San Mateo, CA (Full time, on-site only)

We're a startup looking to replace health insurance with a system where incentives are aligned for the benefit of both employees as well as employers.

In the long term, we think we can bend the cost of health care across the country. Or in another way of saying it, we can lower both the first and second derivative of the rising health care cost curve, nationwide. We've got some compelling evidence for it as well if you'd like to chat.

Our tech stack is an SOA/microservices mix of Go and Java with an Angular front end. We're strong believers in transparency, trust and balance. We believe good code is easy to read and should have a short "time to understanding". We also believe that shipping is important and there are appropriate times to leverage technical debt.

Some of our company-wide values are transparency and a superior customer experience, from the way we design our products and over-indexing on customer support.

Our eng team is around 9 and we're well funded, but still just a year old, so early enough for non-trivial equity. We've got a ton of interesting problems to solve. We expect all of our engineers to teach as well as learn.

We're looking for experienced SW engineers up and down the stack, front end, back end, data, dev ops, test, generalist, etc. Full list of available positions: https://jobs.lever.co/collectivehealth

We're super proud of the company mission, engineering culture and tech stack we've put together and would love a chance to explain it all in detail!

OpenSignal - London, UK (Full time, permanent)

At OpenSignal we're using mobile apps to build up global crowdsourced sensor networks by tapping into the smart phones we all carry everywhere we go. Our first sensor network is for wireless signal [1] where we are building a global database on the coverage and performance of wireless networks (both mobile + WiFi) on a scale that has never before been possible. Our second sensor network is WeatherSignal [2], which uses the barometers, thermometers and hygrometers on smart phones to crowdsource weather data and we have already published a scientific paper [3] showing the potential of this approach. If the concept of crowdsourced sensor networks appeals to you too then please get in touch. We are hiring for all manner of different roles right now (DevOps, backend, frontend, UX/UI & data science) but most of all we are just looking for smart, like minded people rather than people with specific, existing skills. We also recently raised our $4million series A [4] from Qualcomm Ventures, O'Reilly Alphatech Ventures & Passion Capital so are growing fast. We also like data visualization a lot [5].
