#274Vurb (http://vurb.com) - Max Levchin funded startup - http://techcrunch.com/2013/02/20/contextual-content-engine-v...
We're working on search, browsing, and sharing, by connecting the services we use in a contextual way that's more usable, efficient, and social (e.g., no more having lots of windows/tabs open). We do this through unique UX/UI combined with search, machine learning, big data, and other fun technologies.
We're looking for people who are interested in:
* JavaScript (node.js, backbone.js) - generalist / full-stack development
* Search / Data Science - search / classification / ranking, machine learning, recommendations, NLP, data crawling/processing
* Mobile (iOS, Objective-C) - development of native apps on iPhone/iPad and Android
* UX/UI Design - thinking outside the box on interactive and visual designs for web and mobile
We're stealth but funded by Max, Drew Houston (Dropbox), Naval Ravikant (AngelList), Michael Arrington (CrunchFund), and many others. If you're looking to join a small team that solves complex problems and is making something people will use daily, then come find out what we're up to.

#278We do Big Data Consulting.
There aren't many companies where you can be working with Petabyte-scale clusters but still be at a start-up, but we're one of them. We currently have about 60 employees, but we've certainly had some big-time clients: Facebook, NASDAQ, EMC, Intel, NetApp, ancestry.com... the list goes on. We help our clients plan and build big data platforms and applications, and also provide data science and analytics consulting atop those platforms. We specialize in Hadoop, but really use whatever tool is right for the job.
There's certainly a lot of hype around big data right now, but if you're interested in cutting through the hype to providing real value, Think Big is a great place to do it. Fun work environment, exciting projects, and an industry that is blowing up. What more could you want?
We're hiring engineers, data scientists, project managers, recruiters, and sales executives. Here's our website: http://thinkbiganalytics.com and here are our open positions: http://thinkbiganalytics.com/big_data_openings/open-position...

Better than using stateful concurrency? If you have read "Concepts, Techniques, and Models of Computer Programming" you would see that each approach is not necessarily "better", they each have their own unique advantages and disadvantages
To quote from CTM: The message-passing approach is often the best for multi-agent programs, i.e., programs that consist of autonomous entities (“agents”) that communicate with each other. The shared-state approach is often the best for data-centered programs, i.e., programs that consist of a large repository of data (“database”) that is accessed and updated concurrently. Both approaches can be used together for different parts of the same application.

ShowKit (www.showkit.com) is a startup that has recently graduated from Curious Minds (www.curiousminds.com), a privately funded incubator in West Hollywood, CA that specializes in highly disruptive mobile and web applications.
We are currently looking for a talented software developers. You will build and improve our real-time SIP/RTP-based framework & applications.
Qualifications:
- Strong Mobile Development Skills (iOS, Android)
- Strong Web Development Skills (Ruby on Rails, JavaScript)
- Experience with mobile frameworks (PhoneGap, Xamarin, RubyMotion)
- Strong OO skills
- Strong debugging skills
- OSX development experience
- C/C++ development experience
- Self-Motivated
- Good design, analytical and problem-solving skills
- Good communication skills
- Passion for real-time!
Desired/Other Skills:
- Windows Phone Development
- Android NDK
- OpenGL
- H264 Codecs
- SIP/RTP Knowledge
Product:
ShowKit is a mobile software development kit that turbo charges apps with live communication features in under 30 minutes. Before ShowKit, it would take companies and software engineers months of intensive development to add features like audio/video conferencing, screen sharing, and gesture control to their applications. Our first-to-market gesture control functionality empowers users to tap, swipe, highlight, and fully control another users' screen remotely while simultaneously connecting the two users via audio/video conference.
Notably, ShowKit is the only framework that includes hardware accelerated video encoding & decoding. This enables 720p at 30fps, the highest quality video conferencing resolution on the market, while using minimal cpu resources and allowing the app to run seamlessly in the background while a call is taking place. Comparable solutions use full cpu resources & only achieve 4-5fps at that resolution, which isn't feasible for video conferencing.
