AI is going to change the world, but the advances of the past few years have been slow to translate into real-world impact. Our mission at Surge is to change that.

We’ve been developing two products: A platform for extremely high-quality data labeling. Think Mechanical Turk 2.0, but with an elite workforce: in order to build models of misinformation and hate speech, for example, we need to leverage skilled workers who understand complex problems. Tools for easily turning data into AI. A machine learning model is defined by its data, so anybody -- from your PM to your marketer to your engineers -- should be able to create ML models just by labeling data points.

We’re a team of ex-Google and Twitter engineers who’ve quickly bootstrapped into very healthy revenue. Reach out to team@surgehq.ai if you’re interested in chatting! Our tech stack is Ruby on Rails, React, and Python, and we’re looking for backend, frontend, and ML engineers, but love talking to talented folks of any types. (We also love personal projects and writings if you have any to share!)

UnifyID, a Security and AI startup, is building a revolutionary identity platform based on implicit authentication. UnifyID’s mission is to replace today’s vulnerable and cumbersome security techniques (passwords, one-time passcodes, etc.) with passive, behavior-based authentication. Best of all, we are doing it in a way that respects user privacy.

Development specialized on the free software project Open edX, used by and in part developed by organizations like MIT, Harvard, McKinsey, and others, so you’ll have the opportunity to contribute to projects that are widely used and to be part of a thriving open source educational community. See edX.org, the MIT Open Learning Library or the French government online platform for public universities for examples of Open edX instances.

We are 33 senior developers, all working remotely from Europe, North & South America, Asia & Australia. The company is not affiliated with edX, but rather contributing and working with them on various projects. This is a full time position, where you would be able to work remotely from anywhere you want, as long as you have a good internet connection. : )

The Open edX platform is a large Python/Django codebase, with good code standards and architecture. You would work on different clients contracts using the platform. The clients list/references include Harvard, MIT, edX themselves, the French government, and various startups & universities currently running their own instances, or looking to create one. Tasks are very varied, from developing core platform features, custom exercises and tools for specific courses (XBlocks), customizing and deploying instances, working fullstack, operating our service infrastructure, improving our hosting platform, etc. You won't get bored here.

Most of your work is published as free software (Open edX is released under the AGPL license, which requires clients to release modifications under the same license), and you would also contribute to the free software project, pushing most of your developments upstream through pull requests, contributing features, documentation or help on mailing-lists.

We welcome applicants of all genders and ethnicities.

Stack: Python/Django, Ansible, AWS/OpenStack, React, Debian/Ubuntu, MySQL, MongoDB, PostgreSQL, RabbitMQ, Redis, Elasticsearch, JS, HTML/CSS.

Nice to haves: Terraform, Vault, Packer, Prometheus, ELK, Docker, Android/iOS. We are building a modern infrastructure and having a strong DevOps presence on top of core software engineering skills is a big plus with us.

Interview process: a 30 minutes Hangout with a (simple) coding exercise.
