Custora (YC W11) - http://www.custora.com - New York, NY - Engineering and Data Science

Marketing used to be an exercise in one-to-many communication: billboards, magazine ads, and - more recently - having a powerful social media presence. At Custora, we’re helping to turn this model on its head, using mountains of data to help our customers direct the right campaigns to the right users rather than blasting the same message to the largest audience possible.

We're growing quickly and looking for great engineers. We're analyzing data for well over 500,000,000 end customers, and this number is growing fast. We're building a marketing experimentation platform that's usable by entire marketing teams and we need your help to build new statistical models, to build the infrastructure to run those models, and to develop creative and intuitive ways of presenting our findings to our users.

We code in Rails, Angular, and Couscous, our distributed computation framework that runs statistical models with R and Spark.

Our job postings are at https://www.custora.com/careers. I'm more than happy to answer any questions and tell you more about us, so feel free to reach out to me at martin@custora.com.

Catalytic | Chicago, IL and Naperville, IL ONSITE | Full-Time | http://catalytic.com/ We are a very early stage startup building a b2b product to vastly improve team and business operations.

Our CTO Ravi Singh has built over 30…

HA! I'm down the road from you in Plainfield with office in Burr Ridge. The taxes in IL are killing us - have to get out. Curious, why did you incorporate in IL? I'm based out of Michigan but expanded to IL last year. However, the tax base is so high I'm looking for alternatives like office in Indiana. Just curious....

Pixlee | San Francisco, CA | Full Time | ONSITE

Pixlee is revolutionizing the relationship between people and brands. We help companies leverage customer photos/videos from social media to improve marketing.

We work with over 100+ customers, including top brands such as Converse, Kenneth Cole, UGG Australia, Mattel, Charlotte Russe, Marriott Hotels, and AMC Theatres, to drive higher online conversion, increase performance of owned media, and create a more authentic brand experience. A graduate of the Stanford StartX accelerator, Pixlee is an Andreessen Horowitz and XSeed Capital portfolio company. As a rapidly growing startup, we are constantly looking for talented people to join the Pixlee team and to help us revolutionize the intersection of big data and social media. At Pixlee we work hard, love to learn, and value teamwork and humility. We’ve got a big vision and we’re looking for game changers to join our team.

We look for talented, high-potential individuals who aren’t jerks. Our proposition to them is simple: Pixlee offers a unique opportunity to thrive and grow rapidly in a small-team startup environment operating at big-company scale. Our customers are some of the largest brands in the world and everything you do here affects millions of consumers.

We believe in using the right technology for the task, and we use a mix of rails, backbone, python, scala, elasticsearch, and postgres.

For me, I've really felt that I've been able to grow very rapidly, and also been given the autonomy to make many decisions you can't make at a much larger startup. Its a very tight knit group, and we like to have fun.

What we're looking for: - Software Engineer: https://boards.greenhouse.io/pixlee/jobs/86332#.Vg126xNVhBc - Other: http://www.pixlee.com/careers

You can also email a resume/portfolio to dennis[at]pixleeteam.com

Nylas | https://nylas.com/ | San Francisco, CA (Mission) | Frontend (JS), Backend (Systems+Ops)

Hi! We're Nylas. We build N1, the extensible, open source email client, and the infrastructure powering it. We're looking for fronted application engineers (React, Electron, JS), designers, backend systems engineers, & infrastructure/operations engineers.

We recently launched N1, have accumulated 15K stars on GitHub, and are looking for core application engineers to design an extensible platform around email, calendar, and contacts. You'll not only use modern web tech to build a better email experience, you'll design the developer platform to power the next generation of email apps. See more about N1 here: https://nylas.com/N1 & code: https://github.com/nylas/N1

We have more data for a single user than in most startups' entire database. We're scaling heavily and if you have experience with automated deployments, debugging running systems, release engineering, and on-call schedules, but are still comfortable writing code, we're for you. :)

We take pride in the diverse culture we've built and are looking for more than raw technical talent: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z7sHc4P4zPg

== We're particularly looking for folks who ==

* Take personal pride in their work and value autonomy and ownership

* Want the chance to step up and lead a team

* Put the work before ego. We've got each others' backs, and we want you to be with us on that

== A bit more about us ==

* Our backend is built on Python, Flask, gevent, nginx, MySQL, AWS, and Debian. We've been careful to keep our architecture componentized.

* N1 uses javascript (ES6), React, Flux, SQL for offline caching, Electron, and no jQuery

* Tons of our code is open source. Check it out: https://github.com/nylas

* We're a team of 20 (12 engineers, 3 engineering interns)

* We have a paid vacation policy & value personal responsibility and ownership. Benefits include free Lyft to & from the office, full health, dental, vision, and lunch every day. Some remote work / work-from-home is OK too

Apply at https://nylas.com/jobs or ping me directly (spang@nylas). I'm Christine, one of our co-founders. We're a diverse team, and encourage applications from all backgrounds.

PayPal | San Jose, CA | Onsite (relocation available) | Hiring Javascript Application Engineers

PayPal is looking for JavaScript engineers who want to work both in the browser and on the server-side in Node.js. Over the past couple of years, we've worked hard to migrate our entire web application stack to Node and powerful client-side apps and we're looking to turn the dial towards product experimentation and innovation. We need your engineering ability and your desire to be a part of the whole product!

I personally lead the Online Checkout (exactly what it sounds like, "Pay with PayPal") engineering team and I'm happy to talk with you directly. You can reach out to me at my HN username at paypal.com or nodejs@paypal.com. We're looking for experienced JavaScript developers. My team is currently working primarily with Angular on the client and Kraken on Node. If you've got experience with React, we're actively exploring doing an inside-out migration of our application and could use your expertise. As most Node shops go, we're leveraging a whole lot of other open source tools as well and we're very supportive of open source activities for our people.

We have several openings within my team as well as within other teams--so drop me a line even if my particular opening doesn't sound interesting and I'll help you find the right place!

Our current team of ex-IMO, IOI, Phds from MIT, Stanford, Berkeley, Princeton love the challenges. If you’re excited by the problem and team, we should talk!

Key requirements:

- Strong background in linear algebra, analysis and statistics
