At DotProduct, a mobile 3D Computer Vision company, we have two open full-time positions in engineering for our R&D office located in Wiesbaden, Germany (Frankfurt am Main area):

  == 1. Senior R&D Engineer in Computer Vision ==
  == 2. Software Engineer in Mobile ==
  
  
  == About the Senior R&D engineer position:
We are looking for a software engineer with a strong computer vision or graphics background and experience in GPGPU or mobile development (ideally both), to join our R&D team in Wiesbaden, Germany. We prefer candidates who are proficient both on a theoretical/algorithmic level and in practical implementation (mostly C++ and shader languages) of computer vision and graphics algorithms, and who can make contributions to our product and core technology from the start.

Candidates should be able to present relevant work experience either through previous work (employed, freelance, PhD studies, Post-Doc etc..) or extra-curricular work / open source contributions.

  == About the Software Engineer in Mobile position:
We are looking for a strong, hands-on, detail-oriented coder with experience in mobile development (Android or iOS), to join front-end and tools development. Practical skill and programming experience are preferred over academic achievements for this role. Required language skills are Java and C++. Experience in iOS technologies (Objective-C, Swift, Metal), bash, Python, Javascript and web-development are a plus (but not required). A background in Computer Vision and Graphics is not required, however the ability and interest to learn about them is. Also, candidates should have the ability to discuss, design and implement UI.

  == General information:
Our technology stack is for the most part Java and C++. Platforms we target are (in order of importance) Android, MacOS, Windows, Linux and iOS. We strive to make everything we do really really fast.

Our R&D team is still quite small so any new hire can have large impact on product and future developments.

Both positions are local and full-time. We prefer candidates who are able to spend at least 3 days per week together with the team in the city office.

Besides a well-above market rate salary and a nice work place we offer the opportunity to work with an international team of smart people on leading mobile computer vision technology. Significant equity is part of the compensation package.

  == About DotProduct:
We are a team of seasoned entrepreneurs and computer vision professionals that brings real-time dense 3D capturing to mobile devices equipped with advanced camera sensors. Our current product, the DPI-7 Kit (consisting of an off the shelf NVIDIA tablet and a Primesense Carmine sensor) has been launched in August 2013 and enjoys great success with high-end 3D professionals in various industries.

We are backed by Intel Capital and various angel investors. Our office locations are Houston, TX (manufacturing and order execution), Boston, MA (management, marketing, sales) and Wiesbaden, Germany (R&D).

Close - San Francisco Hiring full-time in SF (SoMA), contract-to-hire preferred: * Backend Software Engineer (python) * Data Engineer * Data Scientist

We're a seed funded startup - 3 former Googlers - and we're tackling the messy world of business. Every day, people shake hands over million-dollar deals that can change the future of a company. From fundraising and acquisitions to partnerships, promotions and product placement, businesses get together and make new things happen. But there's no platform for them; they typically overload sales-focused CRMs, or are stuck in the world of spreadsheets and email. We're changing that. It's a fascinating data problem as we're mapping out professional and company-to-company networks, trying to understand who does business with whom and why, feeling our way around the underlying graph that nobody's explicitly mapped out before. From old school tie to the boardroom, why do people do business with each other? What are the trust and influence networks? What's the equivalent of PageRank for investors? What does it mean when a VP moves from one company to another? How do I get my startup funded? We're trying to answer all these questions. We have an invite-only product already launched, we're building a team-facing solution, and we're expanding our data team to work on the platform that powers it all. Here's our team's take on the space: https://medium.com/@jennielees/the-joy-of-data-a1d3757d3567 Looking for fast learners who can get their hands dirty, quickly; who know when to duct tape and when to have 100% test coverage (think like a hacker, ship like a pro); who don't mind being wrong occasionally; and who are intrigued by the overall space we're in. We've had a good run from HN posts so far, hoping to continue it. You'd be single-digit employee and have a significant chance to influence our culture and growth, as well as immense impact on the product itself. We have a generous equity setup, though we prefer contract-to-hire so we can figure out if we'd work well together. For our generalist role we'd prefer it if you have Rails experience; for our data roles, Python. Graph-specific data experience is a bonus.
