Wello - San Francisco, Software Engineering

Have you considered working for a tiny company recently acquired by a big company? It could be a great fit and a best of both worlds (stability and innovation). If you are thinking, you should consider us. Here's why:

We were a team of 4 acquired by Weight Watchers International, a brand recognized by almost everyone, including our moms.

We are left alone to build new products for WW and have some interesting products we are working on.

We have to worry less about stability, legal and other non-technical stuff and can focus on doing what we love.

We offer competitive compensation and great health benefits.

All 4 of us are staying and now growing. We just hired our intern full-time! We love what we do and believe in our mission to make people healthier. We have diverse backgrounds (Stanford, Bain, Google, Netflix) and we are looking for you to come join and teach us new tricks!

If you are interested, email me at amol@wello.com and we can catch up over phone or coffee.

Nokia/HERE (Formerly Navteq) — Chicago As an organization, we have a long history with map data. Now we’re looking at interesting ways to use it to change driving. Cars of the future (and present) have onboard computers, tons of sensors, and internet connections over the cell network. If you could hook that up to our map data, you could do some really cool things. To see what we’re up to, check out http://360.here.co…

Interesting concept. I work closely/within that industry, and I'm interested, just not fully sure how you will accomplish what you want. As a member of the metro-Detroit ASAM work group we tried to push for a more general On Board standardization for fleet management, and a very vocal minority of the industry is against that.

Doesn't this limit your market?

I sent you an email hopefully we can get in touch.
