LearnSprout (http://learnsprout.com/) San Francisco SoMa, CA - full time & intern

I work at LearnSprout because everyday, I feel like I am making a difference. Our vision can change the way students learn. If your interested in joining us in our mission, please email jobs@learnsprout.com

A bit about us: LearnSprout is a friction-less way for vendors and edtech developers to integrate with schools. The field of education technology is growing faster than ever but developers have a hard time getting their products into schools and classrooms. At LearnSprout, we believe that data integrations should not be the reason that many students miss out on the benefits of great technology. We're a 7 person team looking for 1-2 more developers (to add to our current count of 4) and a designer: Full Stack Developers (full time or intern) - Python, JavaScript, MongoDB and Linux Designer/Front end Engineer (part time okay) - Someone with an eye for design who can code HTML/CSS and Javascript. *Generous compensation package, health benefits

Toronto: Developers (Full stack), Interns OK. H1B (well, the Canadian equivalent) OK.

Influitive is a Toronto-based startup that helps customers identify, track, and recognize their best fans and advocates. And help people who love companies find ways to help out. You can check out a demo of our product at: http://vip.influitive.com/join/prospect

We’re looking for people who are self-motivated, passionate about code craftsmanship, with strong communication skills and the ability to work well with the product team. Our development team is constantly improving our products, our processes and ourselves, and we’d like you to help us.

We develop primarily in Ruby on the backend (mostly Rails, some Sinatra), and use a fair bit of Backbone on the front-end. We're especially interested in getting into mobile in the next few months.

Here's some things that are important to us:

You have some experience with developing web applications. Ruby on Rails experience is a plus, but we’re willing to help you learn and develop your skills.

You like working on long-term, complex problems and continually evolving solutions to meet changing customer needs.

Working on a team isn’t a problem for you. You value collaboration, and coming up with solutions through communication and consensus.

You contribute back to the community - through open source contributions, helping out other developers, or participating in local user groups or events.

You think a healthy work-life balance is important, and part of being a great developer is being a well-rounded individual.

If you’re interested in joining us, send us a copy of your GitHub profile, your StackOverflow profile, or anything else you think we might be interested in seeing. Don’t worry about a resume.

Get back to me at ryan@influitive.com.

We're hiring engineers to work on classification, systems, and core engineering for automated classification of online video. We use Python, linux, and make extensive use of AWS (do you like to play with MASSIVE data sets?).

Our product technology is a bit different than anyone else's right now; it uses machine learning and computer vision to watch and classify internet video, frame by frame, at large scale. To put this in context, let’s say that the average video is three minutes long and there are 50 million videos put online every month. That’s 150 million minutes of online video published monthly. If you hired people to watch and categorize every single one of them, you’d need 3,422 people working 24/7 to do what SET technology does. What’s more, we don’t just know that a given video contains sports, we know it’s soccer, hockey, or basketball. And we know whether it’s safe or not fit for a customer's brand."

Our API provides extremely low latency responses to clients asking questions about page- and video-level. Our Dashboard provides reports generated from large amounts of raw data.
