WireWheel is an exciting venture-funded startup that is developing an all-new SaaS platform for companies to manage, use, and monetize data they have collected about people while complying fully with US and international privacy requirements. As the use, collection, and sharing of personal data has grown; so has the need for companies to show that they are doing the right thing with customer information and to demonstrate that they are complying with laws like the new European General Data Protection Regulation ("GDPR") coming in May 2018. We are applying advanced machine learning and data analytics to a serious challenge for today's data-driven enterprises.

WireWheel has the team, investors, customers and product to tackle these data privacy and data protection challenges.

comScore | Senior Software Engineer | Portland, OR | Onsite | Full-time | http://www.comscore.com/

comScore tracks and analyzes consumer TV and digital media consumption, demographics, and purchase behavior. Our clients include most major U.S. ad agencies, media companies, TV networks, movie studios, and advertisers.

We're hiring a developer in our Advanced Applications group to help build a customer facing analytics tool. This is a development intensive role where you'll use your technical skills to implement solutions to challenging problems that are not met by widely used technologies (ie, you'll be writing more code and using fewer frameworks and platforms).

You'll work on a high performance distributed datastore and query engine, running on Linux and written in C (with a little x86 assembly), Python, and Lua. AWS and Ansible experience would also be helpful

Learn more at http://www.comscore.com/Careers/Job_Opportunities?sfid=20100. If you're interested, send an email to the address in my profile. I'm a developer, not a recruiter, so feel free to ask technical questions.
