#72We're building the world's first corporate bond trading platform in Node.js. Why is that interesting? Turns out the corporate bond market is a 10 Trillion dollar market that still works like it did in 1978, with traders calling each other up on the phone. Modernization that happened in equities never made it to the bond market. All the biggest players are calling for new solutions (http://bit.ly/1tLXFZq) and that's exactly what we're building. The incumbents in this space are big, slow moving, enterprises with six to twelve month release cycles and a fear of Open Source software. We push out updates and new features within days and are releasing our own tools back to the community.
Want to solve amazingly exciting problems with a small team of very experienced engineers? Want to help disrupt FinTech by leveraging OpenSource tools and running circles around the competition?
Come join us.

#73Space: Sales is the singularly most important function of any Company. Many new products and platforms have been created to help sales organizations with these changes but sales reps and sales managers lack a compelling, easy to use, interface to organize, visualize, and share data about their prospects and sales performance.
Solution: We are building a sales platform that automatically interfaces and integrates with all backend sales systems and tools (CRM, Email, Calendar, Social, etc). Our initial product radically simplifies how sales reps organize and interact with the prospect/buyers It’s an elegantly-designed product adapted to let them efficiently sell to their prospects without the headaches of CRM entry or spreadsheets.
We’re an Atlanta startup looking for passionate hackers that love building amazing, technically-difficult products that make huge impact on people’s lives. We’re a small team with a strong background: a wildly successful serial entrepreneur that can’t stop and a passionate ex-Googler that lives on the forefront of tech.
You: - Love the full stack. It’s OK if you don’t have chops in every technology that we’re using, but you should genuinely be eager about learning. Here’s what comprises our stack: AngularJS, Meteor, Go (aka Golang), IPython (data science).
- Look forward to building and owning huge parts of the product. You’ll be one of the first technical hires and there are a lot of exciting pieces to work on, lets chat and we can find the right fit for you.
- Love to get going -- have the mentality of a hacker and the quality of a pro.
- Yearn for the high rewards of an early stage startup. Lucky for you, not so much risk as we have a great comp plan lined up for you.
- Want to influence and grow the culture of a young company. The way we see it: We’re building something of immense value, let’s have fun doing it.
- Live in Atlanta, or can make the move.
- Are full-time, part-time or looking for an internship. If you’re a rockstar, we don’t care what your deal is, let’s get you on board!

#75Factual is currently hiring engineers and data lovers of all levels in the SF Bay Area, Los Angeles, and Shanghai.
Factual’s location platform enriches mobile location signals with definitive global data, enabling personalized and contextually relevant mobile experiences. Built from billions of inputs, the data is constantly updated by Factual’s real-time data stack. We were named one of "50 Disruptive Companies in 2013" by MIT Technology Review.

Factual has venture funding from Andreessen-Horowitz and our partners/customers include Facebook, Yelp, Trulia, and Newsweek.
There are many challenging problems to work on at all layers of the stack: data cleaning and canonicalization, storage, deduping, serving, APIs, improving data using machine learning, etc. A great example is one of our most recent products, Geopulse Audience, which stands at the intersection of high quality places data and large scale analysis of user geo-data: http://www.factual.com/products/geopulse-audience . If you love data, Factual is the place to be. Our main criteria are that you're smart and get things done, but you'll get bonus points for experience with Clojure (http://www.factual.com/jobs/clojure), machine learning, NLP, algorithm design, or Hadoop.
