Los Angeles or Bay Area or Shanghai preferred, but remote work is a definite possibility. Full-time only. If you're interested in remote work, you must live in the U.S. (U.S. citizen living outside of the U.S. might be okay)

Factual aims to be the place where people meet to share, improve, and mash-up data. Our vision is to be an awesome and affordable data provider for startups and developers, so that they can focus on innovation instead of data acquisition.

We have a terrific team that is still fairly small, and an incredible CEO (he was the co-founder of Applied Semantics, which was sold to Google and became AdSense). We recently raised a Series A from Andreessen-Horowitz, and our customers and partners include Facebook, SimpleGeo, and Newsweek. We have lots of challenging problems to work on at all layers of the stack: data cleaning and canonicalization, deduping, storage, serving, APIs, etc. If you love data, Factual is the place to be.

Ideally you know Java, Clojure, and/or Ruby, and you'll get bonus points for experience with machine learning, NoSQL, algorithms, infrastructure, and/or Hadoop.

Political Non-Profit Hiring Web Developer / Technology Producer

Citizen Engagement Laboratory (CEL) is a nonprofit organization that inspires political and social change using technology and digital media. We do this by incubating national online organizing projects like ColorOfChange.org and Presente.org, and running a wide array of issue-based campaigns.

CEL is hiring a Web Developer to support all aspects of our organizing work, including design and implementation of new web sites and web applications and maintenance of existing web assets. This person will join two other web developers to join our expanding technology team. We are a django shop, and build custom tools that are on the cutting edge of online organizing.

Full listing at http://www.python.org/community/jobs/

CEL is also hiring a Technology Producer to play the lead project management role for our technology department. We're looking for someone who gets fired up about going from concept to launch in a week, can manage multiple projects at once, is supremely detail oriented, has a deft touch for getting people to meet deadlines, and loves developing systems for better communication and efficiency. The Technology Producer will work closely with two software developers as well as a host of campaigners, strategists, and partners.

Full listing at http://sfbay.craigslist.org/eby/sof/2467427022.html

This is a mission driven organization, and our most successful employees (even technologists) believe strongly in the content of our work. If you want your code to help everyday people to create political and social change, this is the job for you.

Location in Berkeley, CA Contact jobs@engagementlab.org to apply
