VP Data Science, Qriously, London, ONSITE

* How does this sound to you: It’s just cool to work with tons of data. It is truly, personally satisfying. -- You agree that if you can’t explain something simply you don’t understand it. -- You don’t want to work at a bank. -- You think data science is an over-marketed term. -- You’re frustrated by how little you know. -- You think statistical literacy is worth teaching and you’re willing to help. -- You feel an itch knowing that there’s an insight waiting to be discovered, and you know you can find it. -- You think a rewarding work experience is highly dependent on the people you work with. -- You know it’s a cliché but genuinely believe that with great power comes great responsibility. -- You want to work at a place that’s run by people who are too qrious to only care about money.

Location: Boston MA - Ginkgo Bioworks (YC14)

Ginkgo's mission is to make biology easier to engineer. Biology is the next great engineering platform, and can be leveraged to make chemicals, biofuels, new materials, and generally improve many aspects of our economy. Ginkgo is applying disciplined engineering practices to standardize designing, building, and testing microbial strains. Using our platform, organism engineers can design and build hundreds of strains quickly, significantly increasing chances of success.

Want to use your programming, analytical, and informatics skills to change the world? This is your chance. We face many software challenges, from reverse engineering nature, to automating pathway design and construction, to automating data analysis, to debugging and modeling the cell. But, in 10 years, the biggest impact left by our efforts will not be any single piece of software, but a set of forward engineering rules that enables true design automation and makes biology a great engineering substrate.

Requirements: passionate about building the right tools to solve problems, motivated to learn skills you don’t already have, comfortable using or picking up Python, Ruby, Javascript, and other programming tools. Relevant experience in molecular biology a big plus.

For the Fall Semester:

Consensus Systems LLC (ConsenSys) (consensys.net) is a blockchain production studio building decentralized applications, mostly on Ethereum. We are currently building foundational tools for emerging business models in the cryptocurrency or Bitcoin 2.0 space. These tools will be packaged into separate ventures that are individually funded and skinned for different business niches. We are hiring 5-15 students for our Fall/Winter 2015 internship program. The primary focus will be to build decentralized applications. You will have access to our team with a variety of backgrounds, and you will have opportunities to observe and plug into our other ongoing projects. Preferably, you will work with us at our office in NYC. If there is interest we may coordinate housing in a shared space with other interested interns. The internship period is roughly early September - late December, but dates are negotiable. Since ConsenSys is itself a somewhat decentralized company, with personnel in various cities, remote working interns may be considered. Please apply by sending an email to opportunities@consensys.net with github, work samples, resume, and general interests in the space. If you include a proposal for a dApp, smart contract, or other useful tool you want to build, we may consider the development of that project. If the internship is successful, there is opportunity to continue the project beyond the Fall internship period with additional support. This is a paid internship.

Software Engineer (Web/Frontend)at Telenor Digital -Trondheim, Norway

Permanent position, Full-time You can apply at - http://tinyurl.com/nc9okjm

Telenor Digital is aiming to create a world-class login solution with the goal of connecting tens of millions of users (we just reached our first million!) to different services within the next two years. When developing we focus on mobile-first and progressive enhancement, and we strive to offer an enjoyable experience to all our users, regardless of what device and platform they are using. We operate mainly in the European and the Asian markets, with all the challenges that include, for example: different alphabets, different levels of literacy among our users, and different experience levels with internet usage and technology.

Our implementation We use Java a lot. As we are creating login, user-management, and payment applications, we use HTML forms a lot too. Our older applications are built with Jersey/JAX-RS (https://jersey.java.net/), while our new ones are built with Spark (http://sparkjava.com/). We try to keep the code-base to a minimum. On the frontend we use plain JavaScript (inline) for code that has to be executed right away, and jQuery for “nice to have” functionality. We use Apache Velocity for templating. We build using Maven and Grunt, and we track our code using Git. Performance is key, and our aim is that our applications should be ready to use (or at least be perceived as being ready to use) within a second, even on slow connections. We have (big) databases too, but you won’t have to interact with them directly. Persistence is handled by an API created by another team.

Who we are looking for We need more hands on Java/Web. This means we need someone who would be comfortable with working with Java, Jersey, Spark, Apache Velocity and JavaScript/jQuery. And Maven/Grunt for building. We are not looking for someone who is already an expert on all of these things (It would be nice, though), but someone who knows a few and is willing and able to learn the rest.

Deadline for application:30/08/2015

Software Engineer at Telenor Digital AS - Trondheim, Norway

Permanent position, Full-time You can apply at - http://tinyurl.com/nc9okjm

We offer a position that will make you part of a hard core software development house. You will join a team of world class developers that feel strongly about what they are making.

About the job We are a growing bunch of software engineers, working on an ever-changing list of exciting projects. Working in Telenor Digital gives us the tremendous opportunity to reach millions of users, across borders, cultures and languages, with our code, with the flexibility to choose the technology that does the job best. Exciting challenges at huge scale and high speed!

If this is you or who you want to be, we want to hear from you:

We want coders that are challenged by complex problems in distributed environments, but value simplicity in their solutions. We want software designers that look at the entire system and think like engineers - you look for data to validate your assumptions, you create tests to verify your implementations, you know your tools, and you look for opportunities to automate everything. You want to learn how all the parts work together - you want to know what it takes to run your code in a global production environment as much as you care about writing and debugging it.

You have a M.Sc in Computer Science or equivalent experience, and have worked with various programming languages, like Java, Go, Scala, C++ or Python. You are excited by distributed systems, cloud computing, and service-oriented architectures. You keep your code in a version control system, possibly distributed like git or mercurial, and you use more than your brain to keep track of your ideas and bugs. We don’t care if you’ve used the technologies we’re currently working with before. We DO care that you think they’re cool and something you want to work with.

We want smart people who will fight for their point of view because we’re often wrong, we just don’t like admitting it. We want co-workers who want to constantly learn new things and are capable of fluidly moving between projects. We want teammates who can quickly become subject matter experts in new areas and share that knowledge with the team and with the company. We want colleagues who take pride in what they do and want to share it with the world. We want engineers who are excited by contributing to open source projects, writing blog posts and speaking at conferences. We want people who want to dive into projects supporting Telenor’s business units all over the world.

The position is located in Trondheim. We conduct background checks on relevant candidates.
