eShares (https://esharesinc.com/) | Mountain View, CA | ONSITE | FULLTIME | VISA

eShares is set to bring technology to a financial market that's been stuck in the dark ages. Prior to eShares, private companies tracked ownership with rusty legal documents and paper stock certificates. We're replacing that with technology and bringing needed transparency to the process for companies, founders, lawyers, investors, and employees. We're in the process of launching the one and only zero-cost tender offer, letting companies offer liquidity to their investors and employees.

Many of the companies you see on this page use eShares, from the early stage startups all the way up to tech giants in the $1B+ club; clients range from a few entries on their cap table all the way up to thousands+ of employees/investors.

We're looking for a few more FULL STACK ENGINEERS / FULL STACK GENERALISTS. Desirable skills include:

* Python / Django * JavaScript * PostgreSQL * AWS / general dev-ops (not strictly required, but a nice to have) * General web development

A financial background is not required. We're great at teaching newcomers how private equity works, and have a trove of domain knowledge at your fingertips through our private equity teams.

Why choose eShares?

- Great benefits - Get involved at the financial center of the startup world - We recently raised our Series A funding through Union Square Ventures and Spark Capital - Rapid growth (more than doubled in the last year) - Great engineering/product team with some fantastic product designers - Sane work/life balance

We're also looking to hire a few equity analysts (strong Excel, strong communication skills, multi-tasking, eager to learn private equity).

Permutive (YC S14) — London, UK — http://permutive.com

We're focused on understanding and recommending content at scale. We use ML/NLP techniques to algorithmically understand the meaning behind content and make sense of people's wide and nuanced interests based on their behavior. Engaging content is the future of online monetization, and our first product is an intelligent ad engine for revenue-generating content.

We have a ton of interesting problems to solve. We’re constantly ingesting vast numbers of documents to learn from, tracking millions of interactions with content, computing the interests of millions of users, and making personalized real-time recommendations. This scale impacts every engineering decision we make, and we’re looking to build a company with people excited by the challenges it poses.

You'll want to have interests or experience in some of the following:

* Working extensively in functional languages (we mostly use Scala, with Akka, Spray, Scalaz; some Haskell).

* Building large-scale distributed systems (we run a microservices architecture on AWS)

* Designing and implementing proprietary machine learning models and real-time personalized recommendation systems

* Rapidly designing and building frontend product features

We’re a VC and Y Combinator-backed startup at the beginning of our journey. As one of our first engineers you'll play a central role in defining our tech culture and direction, have real responsibility and ownership, and have direct influence on product and strategy.

Apply by emailing jobs@permutive.com with your CV/resume and anything else that helps us know more about who you are. Unfortunately we cannot sponsor visas at the moment so you'll need to be eligible to work in the UK!

Second Spectrum - Los Angeles, CA, Shanghai, and Boston, MA - http://www.secondspectrum.com

Big data has come to sports, and Second Spectrum is using it to transform the sports experience, for everyone from coaches and players to the most hardcore or casual fan. We have trained machines to understand sports at a level of sophistication that exceeds that of most collegiate players. Using this machine understanding, we deliver analytics software that is helping ten NBA teams win more games, is enabling national broadcasters to tell better stories, and will give every fan their own personal sportscast. We have recently signed deals with ESPN and Fox to deliver content for their broadcasts, starting with this clip that appeared on NBA Countdown: http://espn.go.com/video/clip?id=12510250, and extending to interactive products that the broadcasters will use on air.

We are looking for a variety of engineering roles, including full-stack, UI/UX, systems, mobile, dev-ops, machine learning and computer vision engineers. The responsibilities range from sophisticated UI design that supports detailed but intuitive analytics, to front-end interfaces that will appear on national sports broadcasts, to scalable backend infrastructure that supports robust video streaming, to ML and CV engineering that enables the semantic layer that understands the game. Our software stack is based around Node, Go and Python, and we also use C++ for our video systems.

In addition to the engineering roles, we’re also hiring a product manager who will guide our engineering and design efforts in order to deliver our technology to all our customers, ranging from NBA coaches to casual fans of the game.

If you're interested in joining us, our jobs email is is work@secondspectrum.com. I'm also available for any questions you might have at noel@secondspectrum.com
