Shyp - San Francisco, CA. Data scientist

We're looking to hire our first data scientist. We just raised $50 million from Kleiner Perkins, and we're working on allocating our fleet of drivers more efficiently. A few months ago the routing algorithm was "pick the closest available driver by distance", so there's definitely a lot of room for improvement.

We did just start logging the positions of every driver at the time of every pickup, and making guesses about how long it's going to take. Hoping you can help us make the most of this and our other data.

We have a ton of other interesting optimization problems - how/when to get pickups from drivers to the warehouse, how to optimize the warehouse, how to route packages to people once they are in our possession, etc.

Our founders are Canadian and we can help with visas. Any workstation setup you want, really generous healthcare and dental programs.

Also hiring for mobile engineering positions & a warehouse engineering lead. Contact me - burke@shyp.com

Hi Andrey :)

I should add that we have some world-class developers who have given public talks, maintain & contribute to some of the most popular OSS projects on GitHub, and run on the cutting edge on the frontend (ES6, di.js, Babel, Traceur, TypeScript, etc.).

We are a mobile-first company.

We do a lot of pair programming & mentorship.

We also truly are flexible with vacations - we put employees first, and have paid maternity & paternity leave, as well as flexible WFH policies.

If any of this sounds good, shoot the man an email and get the ball rolling! We're expanding rapidly (doubles to about 80 employees in the past half year) and are looking for talent who want to make a difference and leave their mark on our product, including the direction.
