Close.co - San Francisco, CA. Local candidates only, contract to full-time.

We're a seed-funded startup (Business development still revolves around spreadsheets and LinkedIn, and it's time to fix that. We're building data intelligence tools to help people be more efficient navigating the people they do business with and the industries they operate in. We've launched a marketplace for exclusive deal-making, and we're working on a scalable enterprise offering.

Our company culture is all about initiative, ownership, openness, and thinking like a hacker. This is a great time to join and have significant influence over the future of the company and product.

Hiring a Rails engineer for our user-facing app, and a Python data engineer for the back-end (Flask/web stack facing or machine learning/systems facing). We're also looking for someone on the business development/operations side, ideally with experience in one or both of the startup and corporate BD world.

We're open to data consulting projects, as we have a bunch of experimental data ideas we want to investigate, but our main goal is to expand our core full-time team. We always do contract-to-hire regardless.

Read more on my take on what we're doing (I lead the data team, among other things): https://medium.com/p/a1d3757d3567

If you're intrigued by people and systems too, get in touch with some examples of things you've built: jennie at close.co.

Connexity - Los Angeles & Ventura County

We're looking for sharp folks eager to unlock the value of big data. We serve billions of transactions per day with super low latency through our online advertising platform. At that scale, every contribution to our platform can have a huge impact.

We hack on C, Scala, Rails, Redis, Hadoop, HBase and Postgres. We're likely to get into Spark and Storm in the near future. We don't expect you to be an expert in any of these technologies. In fact, I joined the team as a full-fledged .NET guy. More than anything we're looking for the right kind of can-do folks who thrive on building solid systems.

We offer a competitive salary, paid lunch, medical/dental, and uncapped vacation.

Maybe you've been wanting to learn Scala. Maybe you've tinkered with Kafka/Storm on a few EC2 instances but never had a chance to work with a ton of data. We want you. You'll be joining a sharp team with a strong appetite for progress.

I'm one of the engineers, and I'd be happy to chat about our team even if you don't have a resume or consider yourself actively looking for a new gig. If you'd prefer to jump directly into the HR channel, I can connect you with the right folks. Email david.larsen@connexity.com.

Center for Open Science - Charlottesville, VA - http://cos.io/jobs

Developers - FULLTIME, INTERN

Statisticians - FULLTIME

We're a well-funded, non-profit tech startup; everything we develop is free and open source. Openness is inclusivity, and it's a driving principle in our organization.

We're hiring developers that love open source and want to change science by creating and connecting web-based tools that make being transparent easy for scientists--allowing them to remain or become more efficient in their daily workflow.

We're also hiring statisticians that love open tools, value reproducibility, and enjoy teaching and consulting on both.

We strongly encourage applications from members of groups underrepresented in science and technology industries.
