Node.io | San Francisco | Senior Data Engineer | Full-Time

Backend Engineer | Senior Software Engineer | Data Scientist | Distributed Systems

We have an opening for a senior level engineer who is entrepreneurial and passionate about leveraging big data and search technologies (e.g Hadoop, Machine learning, Natural Language Processing, Web Crawling) to build out a unique product that will transform how businesses are able to analyze relationships between entities on the web to uncover new opportunities.

We're looking for fast learners who can get their hands dirty, quickly; who know when to duct tape and when to have 100% test coverage (think like a hacker, ship like a pro); who don't mind being wrong occasionally; and who are intrigued by the overall space we're in. You'd be a foundational member of the engineering team and have a significant opportunity to influence our culture and growth, as well as immense impact on the product itself.

We spent the last year and a half building out the platform and this year have been working with a select group of enterprise customers.

Below is a bit more on Node: At Node, we believe the future of the web isn’t about search; it’s about proactive, personalized recommendations. We’re a team of ex-Googlers re-organizing information on the web for the people that use it. Backed by Mark Cuban, NEA, Avalon Ventures and Canaan Partners, you can read more about the platform that aims to transform how business is done and drive the future of the contextual web.

Are you interested in hearing more? Looking forward to hearing from you. Email falon@node.io

Earlier quoted context omitted.

Why did you shut down your Vancouver office? I heard your company's founder is a UBC grad.

Hey, Andrei (the UBC grad) and founder of Human API here. We still have a great group of people in Vancouver (and that office will be open indefinitely), however we've decided not to expand the team there right now. The biggest driver in this decision was communication overhead across the two offices -- it's certainly not an insurmountable task, however we can't ignore the benefits of having most people under the sam…

Thanks for replying, Andrei.

Air Canada Express recently started 2x daily YVR-SJC; direct connections between Vancouver and the Valley may help with communications with the Redwood City office.

Are you willing to publicly divulge an ETA on when you'll come back to Vancouver? Please come back. I really love Human API's vision, and I don't want Vancouver's biggest tech players to be companies like: -SAP (which I wish could be relegated to the ashheap of history in all its ABAP glory) -TELUS (a telco monopoly) -EA Canada (a slave-driving AAA game studio) -Tableau (which will be doomed when Microsoft PowerBI gets in gear and SharePoint integration improves)

Small, start-up like environment. At Wal-Mart, a Fortune-1 company. Think about it. (Also, having worked there ... um ... no. The place is worse than Oracle.)

I've actually heard really positive things about Walmart Labs from the Node community.

They've even built and open sourced the popular framework hapi (http://hapijs.com).

P.S. I've been toying with your API (very cool service). I tried to break the API a bit triggering 500s successfully. Based on the error messages I saw, I think it's running in debug mode. I'm happy to help provide suggestions.

We're an e-commerce tech start-up based in San Francisco, looking for quality engineers to join our dev team. We're a diverse, socially-saavy group from a variety of backgrounds. Our CTO is hands-on and engaged with what we do, offering insightful feedback without the tedious micro-managing. We're data-driven and value learning, testing, and getting it done together. Our team sits in the best part of the office with the sweetest views of the city. We have all the resources we need to execute effectively, and are a few steps away from of all the fun stuff, too (healthy food, hydration, and a sleepy three-legged dog who loves belly rubs). The company has managed to harness a fickle audience, and now it's our job to give them the experience of their lives. Come join us.
