Knack - http://knackhq.com - REMOTE

Knack makes it easy for anyone to build online database apps.

We're growing rapidly and looking for a lead developer, AWS systems engineers, and front end designer/developer:

http://knackhq.com/jobs

We're focused on building a profitable long-term business with a product our customers love.

We can’t compete with Google on start-up perks, but we can more than compete if you’re looking to sink you teeth in and have a major impact:

* Impact: we’re expecting anyone that joins to come in and have a major impact. We’re small enough that every customer interaction, every marketing spend, every line of code has an over-sized impact.

* Equity: we don’t need hired-guns, we need team members. We want to share our long-term vision and success, and make sure you have equity in that journey.

* Autonomy: we don’t look for specific roles, we look for good fits. You’ll be able to contribute with your strengths and determine the projects you want to drive forward.

* Flexibility: supporting our chosen lifestyles is major part of our success equation. Join a remote team and create your own hours. Work how and where you want to.

* Culture: we work hard, but also don’t take ourselves too seriously and make sure we have a great time along the way.

We seek postdoctoral fellows for several projects in computational genomics and machine learning. Selected projects include:

1. Integrating epigenomic and sequence data to better understand human gene regulation.

2. Creating models of transcription factor binding that allow us to predict the effects of perturbations.

Submitted first-author or joint first-author papers in genomics or machine learning research. Experience in scientific programming in a Unix environment.

Not required, but preferred qualifications: Experience with epigenomics and graphical models. Published first-author papers in peer-reviewed journals or refereed conference proceedings. Experience programming in Python, R, C, and C++.
