We are making financial analysis faster, accessible, intuitive and beautiful through our partnerships with Goldman Sachs and CNBC. We're small, hungry, and have hoppity-hops in the office. To get our attention, share a project with us that shows:

(Software Engineers) Innovation at any layer of the stack, but especially with javascript or infrastructure. Inside tip: High velocity problem-solving and coding are essential.

(Machine Learning Engineers) Advanced machine learning, NLP or modeling techniques at scale. Notable research and data science experience expected. Inside tip: Demonstrate multiple years of data science research, ability to explain nuances of sophisticated models and excellent ability to optimize.

(UI Designers) Your portfolio of data visualizations, workflows or UI designs. Inside tip: Make data beautiful, intuitive and informative.

Hiring process: We're a small team who will interview very few candidates. We all think interviewing is broken and have flexibility to adjust the process -- please show us where you shine! We start with looking at projects mentioned in your resume and/or cover letter. Then, depending on you, the role, and the projects you shared, we'll talk to you via phone/hang out/in person (if local). We'll likely do some live coding or design presentation, ideally on your computer, extending something you have created. We also have take-home challenges if you don't have deep enough projects to share, or maybe interviews aren't your thing. Lastly we bring you to Cambridge to interview us in person and go more in depth. Again, please bring along something you are passionate about and that you'd like to extend and discuss.

Our Stack

  * python, pandas, numpy, scipy, scikit-learn, nltk, et al.

  * Javascript, React, d3, canvas

Gametime (https://angel.co/gametime) connects communities through frictionless and beautiful mobile applications. We believe communities get closer when people get off the couch and have fun at a live event. Backed by Accel Partners as well as team owners Jeff Mallett (Giants / Whitecaps / Derby FC), Vivek Ranadive (Kings), and David Blitzer (76ers / Devils) we've raised $13mm (including $8mm in May of 2015).

Built for iOS and Android, Gametime makes getting into the game as amazing as being there. Inside gametime.co/app we provide high-res panoramic photos from every section, curated listings as we decrease a universe of 5000 options to the 50 best with ultra fast two-tap checkout and no printing. With our mobile-only approach, we've reduced a 30-minute process to 30 seconds. This approach has led to fast (600% annual) and viral (92% of new purchasers hear about the app from friends) growth.

New Gametimers join for the community of high-performers (known as the Gameteam). New employees also love the environment as we aspire to build the best place to work in SF...

We offer market rate salary (even though we’re small) and real equity (meaning you come out way ahead). Everyone here does meaningful work. You won't end up on the "login button team" here, you will be a big part of the most important conversations on the engineering team. There’s free catered lunch Monday through Thursday and lunch on the company outside the office on Friday! Who said there was no such thing? We offer Blue Cross / Blue Shield via Zenefits and dental insurance. We also have monthly $75 cell phone reimbursement and $80 commuter benefit. We love going to games and we're right by AT&T Park so (if you're into it) you'll hit a bunch of them with your $100 monthly Gametime credit. Go Giants!

In summary, we're fast, well-funded and growing quickly. It's an exciting time to join the Gameteam.
