Cuberon | Sunnyvale, CA (Close to Caltrain) | http://cuberonlabs.com | ONSITE | Data Scientist, Backend Engineer, Product Manager

    === What we do ===
Customer behavior intelligence engine, in stealth, using machine intelligence to simplify and automate some of the most difficult tasks in understanding customers. We started Cuberon when we saw the frustration of our business partners not understanding which customer behavior was impacting their metrics and who their customer is. Always reacting to new customer behavior trends rather than discovering them. Early Stage, VC backed (Redpoint, Milliways), and prominent angels.

    === Crib notes ===
- Java, Scala, Python, Ember, Django - Spark, Docker, Redshift, Hive, REST - Exposure to machine learning and data mining - Hiring the early team, opportunity to build product from ground-up, work on some very advanced big data and machine learning technology and ultimately get to experience starting a company

    === Looking for ===
Smart, passionate, result driven: - Data science/engineering (https://angel.co/l/KcCKy) - Backend engineering (https://angel.co/l/KcCKD) - Product Manager (https://angel.co/l/KcCEA)

BaseCase | Berlin, Germany | Software Engineer | http://basecase.com | Remote, Visa

Our primary product is a sophisticated web application which allows non-developers create interactive presentations.

We're looking for talented developers. Our technology stack is Javascript / jQuery / HTML5 on the front-end, and Python / MySQL on the back-end. But you don't need experience in our stack - we know a good developer can learn on the job.

We can support remote workers, and are willing to assist in obtaining a work visa for Germany if required.

We have been profitable for several years, so we can offer very competitive salaries, with stock options.

If this sounds interesting, apply here: https://basecasecareers.recruiterbox.com/jobs/fk0hffr Some relevant background videos:

Houston, TX | Product Manager | Onsite

About the company: GoCo is raising the bar for Houston Tech! We have an amazing team of developers, designers and sales folks that are on a mission to simplify and automate all the annoying admin work small businesses have to put up with (and make the workplace way more fun for those companies' employees along the way).

We've recently raised $1.8M and we need your help!

About the position: As a PM at GoCo, you'll be a mini-CEO. You'll need to help us figure out what we should build and how we should build it. And you'll probably make mistakes along the way. But that's OK. We're all about learning quick. The ideal GoCo PM would demonstrate these 4 main traits: - Excellent communicator: You'll need to be a great listener so you can understand users' problems. And once you understand those problems, you'll need to convey your proposed solutions via email, PowerPoint decks, whiteboarding or just sitting down and talking with devs, design, and execs. - Half analytical, half creative: You'll quantify and prioritize what's going to deliver the most bang for the buck. Sometimes, those features won't be very creative. What's worked before can work now. But sometimes, you'll really have to really think out of the box. - Design: You don't need to be a designer. You don't need to know how to make things beautiful. But you do need to know how to distill complicated flows into something that's intuitive and simple. - Bias for action: You need to get stuff done! As a PM, you'll report directly to the seasoned Chief Product Officer and have massive opportunities for personal growth, leadership, and career advancement in a rapidly growing company.

You don't need any direct PM experience (though that's awesome). You just need to demonstrate the traits outlined above. Any experience with HR or insurance is a big plus.

Struck your fancy? Email me, Michael Gugel (the co-founder and CPO) at gugel@goco.io.

Change Heroes | Vancouver, BC | http://changeheroes.com/ | Prefer ONSITE but REMOTE possible for the right candidate | CTO, Senior Backend Engineer

We're building the world's largest community of people taking action through giving. We scale person to person asks via video, thus helping charities fundraise better. Here's a dashboard showing our impact to date: http://dash.changeheroes.com/main.

We're currently hiring a CTO and a Senior Backend Engineer. Our stack is Java + Angular hosted on AWS. Our office is in Gastown in beautiful Vancouver, and we're hoping to find candidates that can be in the office, but if you're the perfect candidate, I'm sure we can work out a remote arrangement.

I couldn't find the CTO job posting, but I know we're hiring for that position. Here's the job posting for the senior backend engineer position: https://boards.greenhouse.io/changeheroes/jobs/125117

Amazon | AmazonUI (AUI) | Seattle; San Francisco | Onsite | Full-Time

AUI is the Front-end platform being adopted on Amazon.com. We are modernizing the company's front end code base, while diving deep on latency, performance, API design, user experience, and cross browser/device compatibility. Basically, we need people who can build libraries, not just use them.

Our team is incredibly customer-centric. For any given situation, we have to make the right choice on behalf of the folks using our platform -- and we have to do it at scale. That may sound cliche, but within the next hour AUI will be used to generate tens of millions of page views. And that's just in the US. Worldwide, we're used on more than 90% of requests across all device categories.

It's a lot of responsibility, but also a lot of opportunity. For example, we can run experiments that change almost every page on Amazon.com. We can also impact the page load time for the entire site. Have you ever tried to figure out why your site is 6ms slower? We have. We use these tools (but don't expect you to know all of them): HTML, CSS, JavaScript, Ruby, Java, Perl, Git And to give you an idea of who you will be working with, the folks responsible for this articles are on our team: http://bjk5.com/post/44698559168/breaking-down-amazons-mega-...
