Daisee (www.daisee.com) | Software Engineer, Devops, Data Scientists | Sydney, Australia or Melbourne, Australia | Full-time, ONSITE, no visa but vague chance of REMOTE for someone brilliant

Daisee makes software for call centre operators to transcribe calls, and then do various kinds of analysis on the call text (e.g. whether the caller was expecting a call back, general sentiment of the call, predictors of a successful or unsuccessful call). We also help call centres offload voice volume on to chat. We also do predictive modelling for demand (not just in call centres: retail as well).

We are a well-funded startup with a long runway to support our current 20 staff. We're making large $$$$ sales into enterprises most weeks. We have mature management (two ex-googlers are on the management team, including the former Australian general manager; the rest of the executive team have held senior roles across the banks, successful startups and a variety of other major corporations). You get the stability and mature culture of a large corporate job, but the interesting work and dynamic environment of a startup.

We have a team of data scientists already; I'm looking to hire one more, preferably with skills in computer vision.

I am looking to hire around 3-5 software developers to take on various projects. There are existing projects in Python, but we are seriously considering switching to Go or Haskell for the bulk of future development. (If you are only interested in a Haskell role, or only interested in a Go role, just mention it in your resume.)

What I would like from a software developer is a lot of experience of working with data scientists and/or some machine learning skills yourself. Having taken projects through to production and supporting them there is also valuable.

The call centre application is the most important one, so experience with NLP, Twilio and call centre software (e.g. Genesys) will get you to the top of the resume pile. On the other hand, if you are happen to have some knowledge around point-of-sale systems, forecasting, stock and warehousing systems and so on, that will get you to the top of the resume pile for the demand modelling part.

I also need some devops folks: in particular, we have a platform that helps speed data science projects through the cycle from jupyter notebook -> software development -> in production system; I'm looking to hire someone who can own that product and provide insight into what production problems could be avoided by baking things into code at an earlier stage in development.

Endjin| UK | Full-Time, UK | https://endjin.com Do you think you would like to come and explore what is happening in data, analytics and business transformation with us in 2018?

Are you the kind of person that just can't leave a question unanswered? Do you really want to know how things work, and share that knowledge with your team and the wider community?

Do you understand how people and technology can come together to craft something special, each reshaping the other?

Endjin are hiring developers at all levels, from apprentices to seniors, to work on exciting projects with clients from all over the world, in verticals from retail to financial services, utilities and media.

Endjin specialises in digital transformation using Azure, Data & AI.

Whether our clients are trying to reduce costs, increase customer satisfaction, or drive innovation, they need to refine their organizational strategy, improve governance, adopt a cloud-first DevOps approach, and take their people with them on the journey.

Endjin was incorporated in 2010 by two founders wanting to create a sustainable long-term business with organic growth delivered by deep partnerships with their clients.

Since then, endjin has helped organizations of all sizes, across many industries to transform how they invest, envisage, build, deploy, test, manage, and grow new digital offerings.

We also structure innovation programmes, process improvement, and DevSecOps, as well as delivering production-ready code, cloud infrastructure, and thought-leadership content.

We value life-long learning and an eye for quality. We will help you to find the best learning techniques, tools, and team-working, so that you can achieve your potential, and deliver the best value to our clients; while balancing your personal goals and home life.

Our employees have a mutual respect, regardless of where they are in their career. Ideas are developed by the whole team, from interns to seniors.

Equally, our clients pass the "nice to work for" test (and usually do so with flying colours). As part of that, we try to understand the ethical implications of the work we undertake. We seek to do the best we can for each other, for our profession, clients, and for the world at large. With no external investors, endjin has been built as a sustainable, lifelong business: we are a company to retire out of, not exit at the expense of the employees.

You can work remotely from anywhere in the UK, and we hold meet-ups in London on a regular basis. You design your ideal working environment, and we will make it happen together.

Apart from a real passion for learning, you probably dream in data - how it can be represented, handled, secured and manipulated. A bit of maths improves your day. You know a couple of programming languages pretty well (we do a lot of C# and Typescript, but you may know R, or Python too). You love working with other people, but value the opportunity to spend time in your own head, thinking things through.

You can learn more about our projects at https://endjin.com, see a video about our career development pathways https://vimeo.com/200191869 or read our blog https://blogs.endjin.com

Contact us on hello-at-endjin-dot-com if you think this looks like a good opportunity for you.
