Occipital | San Francisco or Boulder | Computer Vision Engineer

Interested in working with mobile devices for large scale SLAM?

Occipital is a small company looking for more 3D Computer Vision Developers. A lot of our work consists of following the latest developments in computer vision research, and then optimizing them so they run snappily on a mobile device, and then pushing them out to customers with a very quick turnaround.

Last year, we launched Structure Sensor, the first depth sensor for mobile (http://structure.io, http://kck.st/16BkwuO).

However, fundamentally Occipital is a software company (http://occipital.com/about), and we dedicate a lot of efforts on research in mobile computer vision software. We’ve already released early prototypes of real-time object scanning, indoor mapping and augmented reality demos, but we want to push the boundaries of computer vision much further and enable practical 3D vision on mobile devices.

Additionally, we are interested in people who are passionate about creating applications that exist in the real 3D environment around us, including Virtual Reality and Augmented Reality, and are comfortable in exploiting the latest advances in Computer Vision. We regularly accept internships.

Please email dustin@occipital.com

Cerebellum Capital | San Francisco | Time-Series/Machine-Learning Infrastructure | ONSITE

Cerebellum Capital is a machine-learning-focused hedge fund. The financial markets are full of noisy and unreliable data sources, drawn from nonstationary distributions, with widely-varying time scales. We're building a new internal infrastructure for this hostile environment. Our system needs to manage heterogeneous vector-valued time series and machine learning models for both our research process and production trading operations.

You would be the Lead Infrastructure Engineer - doing core architecture and development work, with the expectation that you'll grow a team down the road. Experience with time-series data management and cloud is a huge plus. Primary languages are currently Python and Matlab, with some R, but if you think e.g. Scala, Julia, or Go is the right tool for the job, we're open-minded and can work with anything. Send inquiries and resume to jobs0316 "at" cerebellumcapital.com and ask for Scott.

Naked Apartments

Android Engineer | REMOTE | Full Time | Anywhere

Naked Apartments has set out to simplify renting, starting in NYC. We're a small team, growing fast, and already taking a big bite out of Craigslist's juicy NYC revenues, but we've set our sights on much bigger goals.

Our team is optimized for developer impact and freedom.

* A TRULY REMOTE job. We've taken Jason Fried's TED talk [1] to heart and built an entirely distributed team, which includes even our CEO. We have no physical office for employees to report to just in case you're worried about bait and switch ;)

* Flexible work schedules. Work the times that work best for you. Our team cares about what gets done, not about how many hours you stare at your screen.

* No wire frames, pixel perfect designs, or 35 page specs handed down from out of touch product managers. We trust our engineers to help define business needs and shape them.

* Engineers get to take an idea from conception all to way to production, coupled with a team support system to get feedback and iterate until you've built a something we're all proud of.

* Friendly, funny, energetic co-workers.

* Our company is profitable and growing.

We want team members we can trust, who not only care deeply about well written and tested code, but our business as well. Be ready to learn, grow, and help the team do great things together. Send us an email, we'd love to hear from you: jobs@nakedapartments.com
