Capital One | Senior/Lead Software Engineer | Cambridge, MA | Full Time | Onsite

I’m building up a brand new team for Capital One in Cambridge, MA. We have a whole bunch of interesting openings, and the ones I’m directly hiring for are full-stack (Java Springboot + Vue.js) managing our own infra in AWS (so some ops experience is also a leg-up… Docker, Jenkins, ECS, Kubernetes, all that fun stuff).

We have openings for different levels, mostly on the senior side (Sr. SWE, Team Lead) and we’ll be building a brand new real-time risk management platform (high throughput microservices interconnected via either REST API calls or Kafka). If any of this sounds interesting, please send me an email at david.lago@capitalone.com.

Distru (https://www.distru.com) | Senior Frontend Engineer, Senior Backend Engineer, Product Designer, Product Marketer | Oakland, CA | REMOTE | Full-Time

Distru is a software platform for the cannabis supply chain. Our product helps cannabis companies manage production, sales, invoicing, and shipments, automating compliance with complicated state regulations that require real-time inventory tracking gram-by-gram. We are growing rapidly with over $500M in transactions per year passing through our platform, and we’re uniquely positioned to define trade in the growing cannabis industry.

We are a lean 10 person engineering-focused team that includes early engineers from Opendoor and Heroku. We are hiring experienced engineers and a product designer to help take our product to the next level. We love product-minded engineers that can own a feature across the frontend and backend, even if they're stronger at one side of that. Our tech stack is built from the ground up on Elixir/Phoenix, Postgres, React/Redux, and GraphQL.

After bootstrapping ourselves to profitability, we just closed our seed round with Felicis Ventures, Village Global, Global Founders Capital, and numerous notable angel investors including Elad Gil, Katie Stanton, and Avichal Garg: https://techcrunch.com/2019/06/03/distru-a-maker-of-supply-c...

I live in MI and have had several friends go to U of M. I really question that "10 minute commute to work". When college season starts AA gets really crowded and commute times lengthen considerably. AA is one of the most expensive cities in MI, but it's still much cheaper than SF / NYC.

Most average developer positions in MI are around 60 - 80k for juniors, 100 - 120k for seniors.

This position might be great for someone who wants to complete a master's program, oftentimes colleges will offer free tuition as part of your comp.

Squarespace | Senior Machine Learning Engineer | Onsite | New York City (West Village area)

Apply here! https://www.squarespace.com/careers/jobs/77247

The Squarespace Machine Learning team is growing! We source projects from all over the company, ranging from direct integrations of NLP & computer vision into our products to behind-the-scenes services that improve efficiency in our customer help center. Our team prizes stakeholder-focused development of research and project deliverables while also taking time out for reading groups, conference attendance and Hack Week projects that pursue educational and research goals.

The ML team uses a Python-focused development stack with all the usual ML and data processing libraries. We have a framework for rapidly deploying our models behind lightweight Flask web applications in a managed Kubernetes environment and to thrive in our team you should enjoy the full range of backend engineering tasks that go along with this. You won't be developing ML models in isolation, but instead demonstrating leadership and ownership over deployment strategies, architecture choices to solve cold-start problems, defining observability and monitoring strategies and working with stakeholders to define validation metrics that don't merely represent statistical considerations like overfitting or precision & recall but go further to develop holistic understanding of model success in a broader product development context.

We are seeking a senior machine learning engineer with a highly developed skill set in software engineering, architectural design and experience mentoring junior engineers and collaborating with multiple stakeholders to deliver projects. You should be skilled in the application of machine learning both on the statistics side and the backend engineering side and comfortable moving between the two sets of responsibilities as the situation demands. We welcome applicants with experience in any variety of machine learning or applied statistics context (e.g. quant finance, time series analysis, audio processing, etc.), though the candidate should show an enthusiasm for information retrieval, search and recommendation, and computer vision models because these are at the forefront of what we do.

Squarespace offers highly competitive compensation and exceptional benefits & work life balance. In this role you can also expect a high degree of autonomy to help lead choices in ML technology investment and data set curation to set up Squarespace for future success. If this challenge sounds interesting to you, we'd love to hear from you so please apply! Feel free to use the cover letter space to let us know you found us via Hacker News!
