We're seeking DevOps/SRE and Matlab/Octave Engineers.

DeepMacro collects and analyzes data from across the internet to better measure the global economy. We were founded in 2016 by an economist with experience at top hedge funds and the sell side (Jeff Young) and an expert in internet intelligence (Jim Cowie). We’ve raised a strong seed round and many of our investors are well known in macro finance.

Because our business is to gather and process activity from across the internet, we're already handling a significant amount of data (and growing). Our key hires right now are people who can help us scale and manage this data infrastructure, or who can work with our economists to turn data signals into economically meaningful indicators.

Data Engineer in Machine Learning and Data Science

CrowdStrike was founded in 2011 to fix a fundamental problem: The sophisticated attacks that were forcing the world’s leading businesses into the headlines could not be solved with existing malware-based defenses. Google Capital led Crowdstrike's most recent, $100M, Series C funding round in June 2015.

We are looking for another Data Engineer to come join our Data Science and Machine Learning team. We apply machine learning as part of our solution for helping customers prevent breaches.

We recently contributed the first signature-less engine to VirusTotal, which uses machine-learning to help the anti-virus community identify malware.
