Earlier quoted context omitted.

Are you only looking for full-time people? I've been using neo4j for some non-production code at Mapquest and I'd love a chance to use it "for real", but I'm not in a position to switch full-time jobs.

We can talk about it. We are very flexible when it comes to people we want, it's really about the fit for us (+some openness to switch to full-time eventually)

Sure - I'll put something together this weekend. Also, if it helps, ich spreche ein wenig Deutsch.

Los Altos: Machine Learning Scientist. Full Time (H1B okay) - Ness Computing http://likeness.com

We are machine learning specialists who work together on real-world challenges. Everyone on our team takes ownership of problem-solving, from ideas all the way through implementation. Our favorite types of problems are the ones that others consider impossible.

Everything the ML team builds is product-driven to solve a specific customer pain. While we are looking for people who are experts in a specific area, we believe that the best solutions come from collaboration. We expect people to apply their expertise to domains they have not previously worked in.

We use principled machine learning approaches, and encode product-level intuition and needs, but are comfortable with using heuristics to get the last mile.

You should be familiar with recent ML literature.

Bonus points if you have a deep background in one of the following: + information retrieval / search ranking, natural language processing + collaborative filtering, ontology management / data normalization + data mining packages such as Weka, SAS, EViews, Matlab and R + "big-data" frameworks such as Hadoop, HBase, or Cassandra

If what we are doing sounds interesting to you, please drop me a line.

Palo Alto, CA - Full Time - Ruby on Rails Developer - Neo (www.MyNeoLoan.com)

Neo provides affordable car loans to consumers new to credit, such as youth and recent immigrants, by assessing their credit risk based on real-time financial and social data as these individuals have not yet built up a credit score. (Yes, it is about time somebody tried this, and we have the chops to do so)

We are a team of four, with high profile advisors. Our beta product is ready, and we are executing our loan program. We have seed funding from a top VC (http://www.businessweek.com/articles/2012-07-26/social-plus-... - see page 2 for Neo). We are based in Palo Alto, two blocks from the Caltrain station.

We are looking for a serious hacker to join our core team. This is an opportunity to get involved in a cutting edge consumer risk analytics project that aims to disrupt the US credit system. Plus, consumers are our customers, so the project also involves working on all the cool tools consumers expect these days (web, mobile, social, etc). As a very early member of our team, you will have direct input into many of the decisions that will affect the future of our company

Drop me a note at navin@MyNeoLoan.com if you are interested.
