Factual is currently hiring engineers and data lovers of all levels in Palo Alto, Los Angeles, and Shanghai. Remote work is possible for exceptional candidates who are US citizens and living in the US ('exceptional' meaning you are a great engineer and have lots of machine learning/data extraction/NLP/etc. experience that is relevant to what we do).

Factual's vision is to be an awesome and affordable data provider that enables developers, startups, and big companies to focus on innovation instead of data acquisition. We have a terrific team that is still fairly small and an incredible CEO who was previously the co-founder of Applied Semantics (which was bought by Google and became AdSense). Factual has venture funding from Andreessen-Horowitz and our partners/customers include Facebook, Yelp, Foursquare, Trulia, and Newsweek.

There are many challenging problems to work on at all layers of the stack: data cleaning and canonicalization, storage, deduping, serving, APIs, improving data using machine learning, etc. If you love data, Factual is the place to be. Our main criteria are that you're smart and get things done, but you'll get bonus points for experience with Clojure, machine learning, NLP, algorithm design, or Hadoop. Our LA office is our headquarters and our new Palo Alto office is still small, so new hires would have a huge impact on the culture there.

You can email me personally at jake@factual.com, or view our job postings and apply directly via Jobvite:

Fetchnotes (TechStars Boston Fall 2012) is hiring a front-end engineer, a lead designer and a metrics engineer in Cambridge, MA.

Our mission is to make productivity as simple as a tweet. We help people keep track of what they need to do the same way their brain works - like a Twitter for the inside of your mind. What makes us really unique, though, is that we actually help you get things done too. You can see some of our press and details on job offerings on our AngelList: angel.co/fetchnotes

We're a small team tackling a universal problem that has yet to be solved despite a plethora of attempts. If you enjoy that kind of challenge, you'll fit right in. Some things that makes us unique:

-Our mobile apps are all HTML5 using Trigger.io, so you can use your web skills to create awesome mobile experiences

-No one in our 4 person company ever graduated college

-We are a TechStars-backed company, which means you have access to one of the widest entrepreneurial networks on the planet.

-We raised a year’s worth of server costs by singing karaoke to our users. We also rick-rolled 10,000 of them. Seriously. Google “Fetchnotes karaoke.”

-We have a tournament ranked table tennis player, he’ll beat you with his tiny paddle, “the Humiliator.”

-We like standing desks, internet cats, and scotch.

-We also have an engineer that wears those toe shoes.

Our super jenk jobs descriptions page: http://bit.ly/11oRqgX. Can you tell we need a designer? ;)

You can also reach out by email to alex@fetchnotes.com.

    Startup - Sequoia Waste Solutions (Pittsburgh, PA) 

    Full Time or Contract. Remote OK, Local Preferred.

    Positive-Cash Flow with 8 full time employees + contractors, interns

We are a 1.5 yr old startup working to disrupt the $60 billion waste industry, and we are primarily looking for a backend & systems developer. We need individuals who are willing to solve problems inherent to an aging industry, and by doing so, topple the biggest players in the market.

    About the company:

Sequoia is saving businesses money by incentivizing them to recycle. We work with almost any sized business to make recycling and waste-vendor management simple.

We have hundreds of client locations in a dozen states, and are cash flow positive with reoccurring monthly revenue, but need to stay on top of our tech development to stay ahead of the multi-billion dollar players in the space.

You will be an integral part of a small development team, tasked with improving upon 1-2 years of database, iOS, and customer portal/CRM development.

Currently we are rebuilding our backend, taking into consideration all the lessons of our first year and a half with clients. After doing so, we'll be prepared to roll out service in nearly every metro-area around the country - scaling on what will be your product!

Leadership experience, with the ability to produce from conception to execution. Comfortable architecting 'behind the scenes' systems, and building those systems in a manner suitable for scale. A keen eye for customer UX.

Preferably, you have a cool project, website, or demo that you could send in.

We've done a majority of development for iOS, and run our data services on Salesforce and an AWS RDS instance. We're looking to get away from Salesforce as the backend to our customer portal and develop our own, pulling data from our own database.

Collecting more data streams, via government agencies and any available API's, so that we may better analyze our customer's services. Further down the road, we will make trash receptacles 'smart' for data collection and customer service.

Email resumes and any relevant work to , or through our website, at http://sequoiawaste.com/opportunities#view3
