Arachnys helps banks onboard their customers faster and more efficiently by engineering elegant automations of complex business processes around massive data sets.
We work with big (100TB+) data sets, a globally distributed infrastructure, and tier-1 banking customers to solve problems that collectively cost the industry $270B+ a year.
Our development team is based in London with a small presence in Vienna (where we would also consider applicants). Email jobs@arachnys.com with your github profile or CV to get the conversation started.
In any case as others have noted it's not relevant here because getting someone's medical records isn't a service that you're entitled to.
Arachnys helps banks onboard and manage customers better by automating expensive manual KYC, AML and due diligence tasks. We sell to some of the world's largest organizations.
Our close-knit development team sits in London with an outpost in Vienna. We work on fun problems in search over big indexes (Hadoop/ElasticSearch), entity relationships (Dgraph/Neo4j), and other goodies.

> Nothing travels faster than the speed of light with the possible exception of bad news, which obeys its own special laws. The Hingefreel people of Arkintoofle Minor did try to build spaceships that were powered by bad news but they didn't work particularly well and were so extremely unwelcome whenever they arrived anywhere that there wasn't really any point in being there.
We're a big data startup fixing banking compliance, with offices in New York and London. We're looking for software engineers with any skill set - particularly graph data, big data or enterprise data management - to join our small dev team.
We're breaking up a monolith into [micro]services, playing with big ElasticSearch and Hadoop clusters, terraforming AWS assets, you name it. We have a very focused culture around delivery, honesty and directness, and accountability. It's not for everyone but if you like it, you'll love it.
Email jobs@arachnys.com with your GitHub profile and/or code samples.
We use 120TB+ of data coupled with extraordinary user experience to help prevent financial crime worldwide. At the moment we're looking for engineers of any experience level.
What’s different about us?
- No rockstar coders or brilliant jerks — just great people solving hard problems for real customers.
- Anyone can get involved with any part of our system — front-end developers can write Hadoop jobs if they fancy
- We have a committed focus on delivering quality, while not being scared of pushing back on customer demands. (A top bank recently told us that we were the first supplier that had asked them, "Why?", about their requirements.)
Whats great about our culture?
- We work hard but it’s never “Crunch-Time” for us. No sleeping under desks or 14-hour days.
- Amazing communication between roles in the company. Developers chat to sales/marketing/AMs all the time, asking for feedback and input both ways.
- We use the best technology to solve problems, whether it’s something new or something established
- We’ve got great infrastructure for working from home (easy to drop-in hangouts, a lot of communication over chat and GitHub)
- Great collaborative environment. Everyone wants to improve and get better at coding.
We work with Python, JS, Docker, some Go, TDD, Hadoop, ElasticSearch, Terraform, Ansible, Neo4j and Dgraph. Experience in any of these is a plus but not required.

Arachnys makes software to help banks manage know-your-customer checks and anti-money laundering (KYC/AML). It's what's perhaps most broken about banks - the FT recently said that they are spending $270B/year on compliance! - and we're helping to fix it. Our customers are tier-1 financial institutions and large multinationals.
At the moment we're looking for generalist engineers of any experience level. We work in Python, Go, Java and JavaScript. We have two projects with over 1k stars on GitHub (one just broke 3k https://github.com/arachnys). We're always looking to open source more.
Our small, tight-knit team has a can-do mentality and isn't scared to use new tools when they are the right ones for the job. We have a relentless focus on quality of delivery, while not being scared of pushing back on customer demands. (A tier-1 bank recently told us that we were the first supplier that had asked them, "Why?", about their requirements.)

I'm the CEO of Arachnys. We make amazing software to help banks manage know-your-customer checks and anti-money laundering (KYC/AML). It's what's perhaps most broken about banks and we're helping to fix it all over the world.
At the moment we're looking for a generalist engineering profile (senior, midlevel or junior) and one specialist graph analysis role:
1. GENERALIST: Pull-up-your-sleeves mentality, expertise with web development (Python/Go/JS are our main languages). Like seeing things through to completion.
2. GRAPH DATA: Most risk problems boil down to relationships that can be teased out of data. We're looking for someone who has worked on complex graph data issues. Experience at scale is a big advantage. If you have strong opinions about Spark, Neo4j and/or Palantir, get in touch.

I'm the CEO of Arachnys. I went to see a customer yesterday (bulge-bracket bank), and they told me that what they loved about Arachnys is that we deliver better than any enterprise software vendor they have ever worked with. If you want to be part of that sort of team, get in touch. jobs@arachnys.com
We sell software to manage risk and compliance processes in big financial institutions. Lots of data, complex workflows, different natural and computer languages, you name it.

We are a risk and compliance solution, splicing together data from the deep web with unstructured and semi-structured information to help customers make decisions about the risks posed by their customers and third parties. Our customers are the world’s largest financial institutions, law firms, and consultancies. They use our software to identify and address financial crimes such as fraud, money laundering and terrorist financing.
We handle hundreds of terabytes of structured and unstructured data, and as a result our infrastructure is pretty complex - Hadoop, HBase, ElasticSearch, Python, Docker, some Go, etc - and highly automated using Ansible.
- We're looking for devops/sysadmin types to join our small devops team and help us go to the next level in automation and orchestration. Bonus points if you have managed server fleets of 100+. (LON or NYC) - Ambitious, multitalented data engineers with experience with graph databases, ElasticSearch, Hadoop, or similar technologies. (LON or NYC) - If you're a senior frontend or backend engineer based in NY looking for a leadership role, get in touch. (NYC)
Email jobs@arachnys.com with a link to your profiles (github, linkedin etc - our own github https://github.com/arachnys/ shows we're serious about open source and actively open up non-core parts of our infrastructure) if you're interested. A founder will read your application and respond within a few days at the latest.
Remote applicants who are able to be in one of our offices at least 1 day/week may be considered - but you'd need to be willing to be onsite more at the start.

Given the regulatory attitude to small business secrecy in the US, it's not at all surprising that companies can implode even when there is a lot of noise and publicity.
Typically the rationale for this though is to protect counterparties, not employees per se as the author suggests. (And also just that sunlight is the best disinfectant).
We help organisations from banks to charities solve their compliance problems, focussing on AML/KYC checks and deeper investigative dives - for instance, our software was used by the ICIJ to dig into the Panama Papers. Think big Hadoop clusters sucking in feeds from thousands of sources in over 100 languages and making sense of it.
Lots of the clever things we do are in-house, but we also participate in open source: see https://github.com/arachnys/athenapdf and https://github.com/arachnys/cabot for side projects that have got lots of community traction.
This doesn't force the disclosure of beneficial ownership though. Shares can be held by nominees without that being disclosed on the register. If the shareholder is an offshore company that can also be difficult to trace.
Another fun fact: it's possible to work out the exact most recent valuation of a UK-registered startup by reading its SH01 filing (when it issues new shares). I'm always surprised that the tech press doesn't do this as a matter of course given how excited they get about funding announcements...
"Aggressive mode", which leverages Chromium's "simplify page" mode, might do some of what you want, but typically you need some of the funky print css classes to enforce widows/orphans.
The main reason we have built this however is that wkhtmltopdf just crashes all the time. Other commenters seem to agree. We'd love feedback on whether Athena works in cases that other tools fail, as well as on quality of conversion.
In Russia even a few years ago, all my friends' parents would obsessively pickle the hell out of whatever they could grow. My impression is now that that tradition has almost disappeared among the younger generations.
Although that would probably require some nifty software to make the 16-odd hours of footage resulting from a single football match useful...
Also that's a lot of DSLRs.
I just got back from the US to a message that said:
Great news! You’ve saved £1,489.55 over the last month while using your phone abroad...
Why they wouldn't improve the UX for such an amazing feature isn't hard to figure out...
We're building the next generation of international business research tools - lots of data, heaps of automation, Hadoop, ElasticSearch, etc.
We have several open positions but front-end engineers - preferably with experience managing and testing large front-end codebases - are particularly welcome.
Our new offices near Angel station are particularly beautiful (all credit to our hosts GoCardless). We are profitable and growing in a very different, technically complex market.
