RelateIQ- Palo Alto, CA www.relateiq.com

We're working on relationship intelligence and are looking for a number of different engineers to join the team. We're pretty open on backgrounds and previous experience but would really like to find people who can add knowledge to our team in areas of Distributed Systems, Analytics, Security, and Android.

Our current stack is mostly Java with Cassandra, Mongo, and Postgres. We work a lot with Hadoop, Kafka and Storm. Our front end is mostly Angular, and we are heavily invested in Docker for our infrastructure.

We're located in downtown Palo Alto. We're about 75 people, with about half working in Eng and Product.

If you're interested in hearing about some of the projects were currently working on, please email alexl@relateiq.com or message me here. We’re open to relocating people and working with visa sponsorships, but we do want people onsite with us.

San Francisco, CA

https://datahero.com/about/jobs

Node.js | Backbone | Angular | D3 | MySQL

  * Full Stack Engineer
  * Machine Learning
  * Frontend Engineer
------

At DataHero, we’re building a beautiful data analysis and visualization platform that anyone can use to understand their business data.

Can you explain a join to your sales manager? Can you instead build a system where she can combine her Salesforce and Stripe data without learning a line of SQL?

Our system uses recommendation algorithms, an intuitive user experience, and all the dirty engineering grit to give non-engineers superhuman analysis skills.

You:

  - build high-concurrency single page HTML5 webapps
  - don’t mind that Node.js hasn’t yet reached 1.0 
    (and have built many an escalator through the 9 levels of callback hell)
  - believe design is just as important as engineering
  - want to work for a top venture backed startup with monthly recurring revenue
  - want to contribute to our beer preference datasets with our 
    small close-knit team:

Vurb - San Francisco, CA - http://vurb.com

We just won TechCrunch Disrupt NYC - http://techcrunch.com/2014/05/05/vurb/

Vurb is working on reinventing search, browsing, and sharing - by creating an intelligent layer over the Internet that helps you get things done in one place. Rather than opening lots of windows/tabs or hopping from mobile app to mobile app, we're building a platform that brings everything together.

We do this by connecting the services we use in a contextual way, through data technologies (search, machine learning, big data, etc.) and original thinking around UI/UX.

We're funded by Max Levchin, Drew Houston (Dropbox), Naval Ravikant (AngelList), CrunchFund, and many others. This is a hard problem, but it has the potential to change the behavior of how we do things on the Internet (and make it fun!)

Full-time opportunities in San Francisco (3+ yrs experience, interview on-site)

* Search / Data Scientist / Data Engineer - search, classification, ranking, ML, recommendation systems, NLP, graph dbs, data crawling/processing. Search experience strongly desired.

* Full-stack Engineer - experience in JavaScript and async programming (e.g., node.js) preferable

* Android Engineer

* Lead Designer - visual design, interaction design, and experience design - please include your portfolio or Dribbble when applying

NoRedInk in San Francisco (or remote).

Full stack rails engineers wanted to make sure that grammer is taught good. Every one's revolutioneyesing educaton but while some student's cant even right the write words.

Then there was NoRedInk.

NoRedInk helps students quickly improve their grammar and writing skills.

We've got a small, technically excellent engineering team. We extensively use react in production.

I work here because I get to learn about my practice (as well as my failing grammar skills) every day. I work here because I care about education. I work here because existing online tools for teaching grammar and writing are pathetic. Join us as engineer #4, and improve how grammar is taught.
