Understory - http://www.understoryweather.com - Boston, MA

About Us:

Understory generates real-time, localized, atmospheric data, powered by its dense grids of proprietary weather stations. We are building the next generation of weather data and you can be an integral part of the team. Our weather stations are being carefully crafted for their first deployment and the atmospheric measurements are the most important asset. Our small company of three recently raised a seed round of $1.9 million and we are looking to grow our team.

Back End Engineer

Blend open-source technology with proprietary hardware to deliver real time data to customers quickly and efficiently. Build the robust interface between the weather stations and the web so that not a single data point is lost. Archive data so that it can be accessed years from now to lay the groundwork for the most detailed weather statistical models ever created.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Data Scientist

Use statistical and machine learning techniques with our proprietary sensor data to help solve the current data sparsity problem. Use findings from our local grids to improve the picture of nation-wide weather effects. Explore the business opportunities for such high density data in the current market of sparse data. Join the team that will revolutionize weather data.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Community Manager

Implement and maintain administrative systems and procedures. Grow and foster the Understory community though our website and blog. Analyze the Understory's internal and external communications and design methods to improve them.

Earlier quoted context omitted.

Hi, not an expert in the visa area, but unless it is valid until the end of the year, multiple entry, and for any employer it probably won't help. I wouldn't worry too much about it though, a qualified candidate will get a visa without much trouble.

It is all three you listed.

Thanks, your resume was received.

Twenty Digital - New York, NY We are a recruitment firm, focused solely in NYC's startup, digital & tech space. We strategically support businesses at various stages of development, from inception through late series funding, to pre & post-IPO. As many organizations in this space are competing for the best engineering talent, we help to accurately represent both company and opportunity to the potential candidate. We…

I just noticed that new this month there is a line noting not to post recruiting firms. Does my post breach this rule?

I've been posting to HN Who's Hiring for months now and have met some great people through it, some of which I've placed with my clients.

I post here as a partner to the firms I represent, so I hope it is not looked at as SPAM. I work closely with NYC's digital & startup communities, representing a number of businesses that are looking to hire talent.

While I certainly appreciate that best practices from agency recruiters in this space are typically subpar, I offer a valuable asset to the companies I work with. Many do not have the resources to identify the number of engineers they need to push their business forward. This is where I come in and can help augment their efforts.

Oration - Foster City, CA - Full Time, Intern

We are a seed funded startup passionate about tackling our nation's rising health care costs by eliminating waste in how health care products are bought. We've analyzed data from some of the largest employers in the US and have found that a significant portion of the $28 trillion spent in health care each year goes to inefficiencies in purchasing. Together with some of the largest retailers in the US, we are building a solution that revolutionizes how individuals and companies buy healthcare products.

We’re searching for a seasoned front end engineer to help lead our front end dev efforts. Come join us in building awesome user experiences for both web and mobile using AngularJS, Play and Postgres. Our small, dedicated group of designers and engineers (there's 8 of us) care equally about good design (visual and technical), having a good time and solving this national problem.

We're also searching for a summer/fall/winter software engineering intern to join our team as well.

Email techjobs@oration.com if interested or with any questions.
