Close - San Francisco

Hiring full-time in SF (SoMA), contract-to-hire preferred:

  * Generalist Software Engineer 
  * Data Engineer
  * Data Scientist
  * UX/UI/Rapid Prototyper
We're a seed funded startup - 3 former Googlers - and we're tackling the messy world of business. Every day, people shake hands over million-dollar deals that can change the future of a company. From fundraising and acquisitions to partnerships, promotions and product placement, businesses get together and make new things happen. But there's no platform for them; they typically overload sales-focused CRMs, or are stuck in the world of spreadsheets and email. We're changing that.

It's a fascinating data problem as we're mapping out professional and company-to-company networks, trying to understand who does business with whom and why, feeling our way around the underlying graph that nobody's explicitly mapped out before. From old school tie to the boardroom, why do people do business with each other? What are the trust and influence networks? What's the equivalent of PageRank for investors? What does it mean when a VP moves from one company to another? How do I get my startup funded?

We're trying to answer all these questions. We have an invite-only product already launched, we're building a team-facing solution, and we're expanding our data team to work on the platform that powers it all. Here's my take on the space: https://medium.com/@jennielees/the-joy-of-data-a1d3757d3567

Looking for fast learners who can get their hands dirty, quickly; who know when to duct tape and when to have 100% test coverage (think like a hacker, ship like a pro); who don't mind being wrong occasionally; and who are intrigued by the overall space we're in. We've had a good run from HN posts so far, hoping to continue it.

You'd be single-digit employee and have a significant chance to influence our culture and growth, as well as immense impact on the product itself. We have a generous equity setup, though we prefer contract-to-hire so we can figure out if we'd work well together.

For our generalist role we'd prefer it if you have Rails experience; for our data roles, Python. Graph-specific data experience is a bonus.

I lead engineering at Close, and I'm also happy to chat for coffee if you're interested in startups, this problem space, or if you're interested in the product itself.

Email jennie+HN@close.co.

SF Ca - Cognitive Networks:

-- Sr. Software engineer (Data/Data Scientist)

---

http://www.cognitivenetworks.com/senior-software-engineer-da...

---

Job Description

We’re looking for a senior engineer to help us build out our automated video content recognition (ACR) system. Our ACR platform processes several million transactions per second at peak volume today – and we’re just getting started. Soon we expect to process a higher input volume than any startup in history – and we’ll transform the television industry. This is a unique opportunity for someone looking to take on big challenges and grow professionally in a well-financed startup poised to change the TV industry.

Responsibilities

We operate a cross-functional team that specializes when needed but aims to have everyone able to contribute. Duties of the Senior Software Engineer (Data) includes:

Implement and optimize data processing pipeline for terabytes of data

Own our data warehouse as well as real-time data reporting systems

Formulate metrics quantifying performance of advanced data systems

Design, build and use tools to understand our product platform behavior and performance

Design and conduct experiments to test concepts, implementations, and algorithms

Implement analytics tools to maximize the value of collected data

This role is not a research or analytical role. This is a senior individual contributor role who is expected to contribute production solutions. Our goal is a developer who is extremely strong in data science rather than a data scientist with limited coding skills.

We don’t use Hadoop now but we have not ruled it out. This is not a run of the mill Hadoop role – this is a senior lead role that will own the entire data pipeline stack. We currently use AWS RedShift as a big data backend and strongly desire someone with very large data warehousing/ETL experience who are also very strong in python.

Desired Skills and Attributes

Significant real-world experience developing real products at large scale

Extremely strong programming skills in python – this is a MUST HAVE

2+ years experience working with large amounts of real data

Very strong SQL skills, ideally in PostgreSQL or Amazon RedShift

Strongly Desired: Expertise in applied statistics

Able to communicate findings clearly to both technical and non-technical audiences

A strong passion for empirical research and answering hard questions

Excellent Linux skills – must be totally comfortable at the command line

Team player – demonstrated experience on a team that shipped a product

Professional developer – experienced with source control and bug tracking

Practical-minded – chooses stability/reliability/maintainability over shiny

Passionate about technology – ideally you build things outside of work for fun
