Ask HN: Who is hiring? (November 2014)

We're building analytics for Chromebooks for Education! Chromebooks in EDU has been an insanely hot market (72% compound annual growth). We're the first to market with a solution that helps schools understand how their fleet of devices is being used. We've got a small market share now, but have great product-market fit and a great sales pipeline (10% week/week growth).

Engineering-wise, we're ingesting tens of millions of events per day from hundreds of thousands of devices. We're in the process of rebuilding our entire event ingestion pipeline (going from PHP+MySQL to Kinesis+Node/KCL+Cassandra+Solr). We've got a team of three engineers (including myself). We're all responsible for everything (frontend, backend, database, deployments, everything). We're looking for someone who wants to make tremendous impact in the organization - making key engineering decision that will impact the company for years to come. We're looking for killer frontend and backend people as well as data scientists (we've got a goldmine of usage data that we haven't run any non-trivial analytics on).

We're Pre-Series-A and profitable! We're in the process of raising an A round which will enable us to scale up. If you're interested in an early stage startup that's positioned well for stable growth, please reach out!
