Two Sigma (SoHo, NYC) - Full Time, Intern, H1B Did you know there's a company based in Soho that has enough technology to be considered among the world's Top 250 supercomputing sites? One that imports over 5TB of data every single day, and has alumni from Google, Intel, and Microsoft? You might think I'm talking about some stealth-mode startup, but I'm talking about where I work: Two Sigma Investments. At our core, w…

Dave's a nice guy, interviewed with two sigma a couple of weeks ago, didn't get an offer but enjoyed the experience.

Earlier quoted context omitted.

You sound very excited about telling us nothing of what it is you do or make.

That's fair, and we deserve the criticism since we're still kinda stealth, in the sense that we're not publicly talking about what we're doing. In person we've always been happy to give a full demo and share everything we know about our company. We've shown our product to a lot of people and nobody has left disappointed (and many told me they expected to be).

How can anyone be expected to be excited about your stealthy product then? Why bother posting? Why not just email people who look good on the "Who's looking for work" thread?

London: Python and Erlang Engineers, FT, not remote

Smarkets (https://smarkets.com)

Smarkets is a real-time online trading platform with an Erlang backend and Python frontend. Smarkets is disrupting the global betting industry by offering a modern betting exchange platform with significantly lower transaction fees than the competition. We have traded over £150 million of bets since launching in February 2010.

The part of our stack which runs behind the website is one of the few that uses Erlang as a primary language, and is supported by other well-known Erlang projects such as RabbitMQ and CouchDB.

The non-Erlang pieces of our stack are mostly written in Python, and relies heavily on asynchronous programming techniques and REST. We use the following technologies: VirtualBox, Vagrant, Flask, gunicorn, PostgreSQL, Ganglia, Icinga, Graphite, Cacti, Jenkins, Trac, Git and many other open source packages.

We are well-funded and growing quickly so are looking for Python and Erlang engineers to join our team. If you are looking for a flexible, agile team to work with; want to work somewhere free of big corporate politics; would like a cool project to work on; we’d love to hear from you! More details about the role and what we're looking for can be found on our blog: http://blog.smarkets.com/2012/07/31/smarkets-seeking-python-...
