Vienna, AT - full time machine learning enthusiast

(local in Vienna, the city with the best quality of life in the world http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/europe/austria/972..., we can provide relocation assistance)

We, nextSociety Inc want to help people find and connect to the subset of their social network contacts that is actually relevant to them.

To achieve this we need people that like hard challenges, want to work with cutting edge natural language processing and machine learning tools, and know that to deliver value to the customer even the loftiest algorithms have to be glued together with solid software craftsmanship.

We are a python shop with the frontend written in Backbone for fast prototyping, but strongly believe that real programming talent is not language bound.

We have an office in the center of Vienna in walking distance to innumerable bars and pubs, regular happy hours and regularly host guest start ups to cooperate and learn from each other.

If you are interested or know someone who is, shoot me (christoph@nextsociety.com) or our CTO (ben@nextsociety.com) a mail, recruiters shouldn't bother.
