Dallas, TX local candidates only. 3 positions open on my team: Scrum Software Engineer for Test, Scrum Product Owner, and we're looking for an UX Expert.

This is a greenfield javascript/html5 project. We're building a very advance browser application. All three positions will be working closely with 4 developers in a team room on a scrum project.

Software Engineer for Test: You should know what a testable application looks like and have experience with and a deep understanding of BDD, DDD, and TDD. Experience with automated (build driven) testing tools a plus. Tools we're using currently include: nodejs, jasmine, and psake. but we expect the candidate to provide guidance, and take charge of making the application testable and tested.

Product Owner: Scrum master experience a huge plus. You would be the face of the team to the rest of the company. Manage the backlog of work providing guidance regarding priority of feature development. Work with project management and user groups on defining requirements. Industry experience in financial trading preferred. A solid scrum background preferred.

UX Expert: Experience building web application interfaces preferred. You would be responsible for building a user pleasing interface over a very powerful application. You would also design several alternate interfaces for many different audiences from power users to newbies, from Americans to Zimbabweans, and also many different platforms - Desktop browsers, tablet, phone, windows 8 app store, chrome app store, etc... Experience with data analysis interfaces preferred (charts, graphs, and tables).

We are targeting modern browsers. We will support IE9+ only. ( potentially IE10+ only).

We offer competitive pay and flexible hours.

Los Angeles or Bay Area or Shanghai preferred, but remote work is possible for exceptional candidates. Full-time only. If you're interested in working remotely, you must live in the U.S. H1B is 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, so that big companies, startups, and developers 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). Last year we 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.

We currently have about half a dozen job openings, from data engineering to software engineering to system administration. For the software engineering position, you would ideally know Java, Clojure, and/or Ruby, and you'll get bonus points for experience with machine learning, NoSQL, algorithms, infrastructure, and/or Hadoop.

If you're interested in the Bay Area office, it's just starting up, so you'd have a significant influence on the culture there.
