Ask HN: Who is hiring? (April 2015)

E la Carte - elacarte.com - Palo Alto, CA

E la Carte puts tablets on restaurant tables.

Before you apply, do some reading about us-- here's some press: http://tcrn.ch/1bgAQyV - TechCrunch - E la Carte + Applebees http://bit.ly/1bQ5TtU - FastCompany - 50 Most Innovative Companies http://cnnmon.ie/1Hkqhxb - CNN Money - Innovation Nation

We're currently hiring a Sr/Lead Android developer http://elacarte.com/about/#job-senior-lead-android-developer

The ultimate responsibility is to build something that fits frictionlessly into the very demanding and chaotic restaurant environment. We have the unusual requirement of facing two sets of customers, the restaurant themselves, and the customer sitting at the dining table. Can you help solve this problem in an elegant way?

We're also hiring a Sr Software Engineer http://elacarte.com/about/#job-sr-jr-software-engineer

This engineer is responsible for building and maintaining the interface server between our internal tablet and the various legacy systems that are already present in the restaurant. Make sure that fifty extra pieces of hardware fit in neatly with a legacy software stack. Create future-proof APIs and then have the freedom to play with any part of the server you want. Help bring restaurant technology into the 21st century.

If you think you might be a fit for either role, feel free to reach out and say hi, mike[at]elacarte[dot]com, I'm the lead infrastructure developer here, and am the filter for the hiring pipeline.

No remote, H1Bs will be considered, but those with unrestricted work status will be given a strong priority.

Pinnacle Entertainment Group, Las Vegas, NV.

A growing, high-energy analytics group seeks a quantitative and critical thinker to join as an analyst. You will work with customer data to help make strategic business decisions/recommendations related both to our casino floors and to our marketing program.

Your work will have a direct impact on our bottom line. Think: "Moneyball" meets marketing. If you get excited by data, prediction, inference, and gaming, this is probably a good fit for you.

The ideal candidate has 1-2 years data experience (new or upcoming grads encouraged to apply!), a quantitative degree (math/cs/stats/science/econ) and exposure to SQL (or relational databases in general). But whatever your background, if you can demonstrate that you're a smart and quick-thinking data geek, we would love to chat with you.

We're automating and standardizing processes and reporting, building predictive models, developing test methodology and analyses, and becoming a key and highly visible business partner to many groups throughout the company.

Sorry, no intern, no remote, and no H1B for the time being.

   ===========================
   ====== What we do =========
   ===========================

We're the single source of truth in logistics -- we track every boat on the water, every plane in the sky, and every truck on the ground so that we can know everything that's going on in the logistics world. We do a lot of analysis and optimization, too. We’re working in the largest, least sexy, most invisible industry in the world — 90% of everything has been on a ship at one point in time. The problem -> Lots of inefficiencies in the supply chain! One of our customers spends $400mm/year shipping empty containers, another spends $80mm/year on late fees. Lots to optimize! How we fix it -> We track everything in the supply chain and make predictions and recommendations as to what our customers should do!

   ===========================
   ===== How we do it ========
   ===========================

Web/data stack -> clojure/scala/python + postgis/redshift/redis/rabbit + ruby on rails + hadoop/EMR (we’re a SOA shop) Mobile -> iOS, android, mobile web Algorithms -> a dizzying mixture of oldschool and newschool techniques... think ML, Neuro-AI modeling, and statistics

   ===========================
   ====== And the rest =======
   ===========================

We've got some very interesting partners and customers (ranging from CPG companies and telcos to enterprise software providers to regional and international logistics companies). We also have some top tier investors (a16z, atlas)! Looking for:

- Big Data Tech Leads (framework and language agnostic, think DevOps meets InfraOps meets Big Data meets Data Science)

- Lead Full Stack Senior Engineer (framework and language agnostic as well, but we're Rails+Angular+Foundation and Node.js too)

- Just really smart people who think they might want be able to contribute and are interested in what we're up to!

If this sounds interesting, please shoot us an email at mike@weft.io! We've also got detailed job descriptions posted on AngelList (https://angel.co/weft/jobs/)
