Learning & growth is a core part of our culture, and we will invest in yours. For example, the whole engineering team worked through Pieter Abbeel’s CS294 last year, and some of us also completed CS287 and CS285.

No prior machine learning experience required. For more example projects and benefits, see the full job description: https://generally-intelligent.breezy.hr/

thejash··on Ask HN: Who is hiring? (November 2017)
Sourceress | Senior Engineer | San Francisco | Full-time | Onsite

We're a (human-assisted) AI sourcing platform that delivers great results (customer quote: "I'd have a panic attack if you guys stopped existing"). We make it dramatically faster and easier for great companies to hire great people. Our mission is not just to fix hiring, but to fundamentally change the way that human mental effort is allocated.

As part of the most recent YC S17 batch we grew our revenue over 10x in 3 months (to over $1.1M in annual run rate), and last month raised millions from some great investors at one of the highest ever valuations coming out of YC (not yet announced). One founder previously sold a company and is a published machine learning researcher; the other was Chief of Staff at Dropbox, and many on our team are from other great organizations (Google, MIT, McKinsey)

We have some really interesting machine learning, infrastructure, and interface projects to work on: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1gxoVieC6toGChvjP8YmRXU4h...

Our stack: Python (Django, nltk), AWS (S3, PostgreSQL), Javascript (React)

We care deeply about personal growth, doing the right thing, and making a positive impact on the world.

As part of the most recent YC S17 batch, over the past few months we grew our revenue 20x (to over $1.1M in annual run rate) with only 3 engineers, and last month raised millions from some great investors at one of the highest ever valuations coming out of YC (not yet announced). One founder previously sold a company and is a published machine learning researcher; the other was Chief of Staff at Dropbox, and many on our team are from other great organizations (Google, MIT, McKinsey)

We have a real business, customers, revenue, crazy growth, funding--and a ton of work to do. We have interesting machine learning problems that are core to our product, and a laundry list of high-leverage features to build.

Position: Python Engineer

Our stack: Python (Django), AWS (S3, PostgreSQL), Javascript (React)

Qualifications:

- Do you love programming, working with a scrappy team, and shipping tons of code quickly?

- Are you interested in solving real ML problems?

- Are you empathetic, highly systematic, intensely driven, and intellectually curious?

- Do you care about improvement at both the individual and global scale?

Then at least say hi :)

Sourceress | Operations | San Francisco | ONSITE

We're a (human-assisted) AI sourcing platform that delivers great results (customer quote: "I'd have a panic attack if you guys stopped existing"). We make it dramatically faster and easier for great companies to hire great people. Our mission is not just to fix hiring, but to fundamentally change the way that human mental effort is allocated.

One founder was the Chief of Staff at Dropbox, the other previously sold a company and published machine learning papers. We have a real business, customers, and revenue, with machine learning problems that are core to our product.

We're looking for a hungry, scrappy generalist to join our adventure. You'll be working directly with the CEO, so there's a ton of room to grow into the role you want and own core parts of the business as we grow.

Example projects: - Set up processes for training and quality control that scale as we grow. - Communicate directly with customers to understand their hiring needs and specify their exact requirements. - Manage the backend contractor team that makes our core product operate. - Handle any task that would otherwise slip through the cracks.

About you: - You’re highly reliable, effective, and amazing at getting things done quickly. - Great customer service and treating people with empathy is important to you. - You have some knowledge of software engineering and technology. You will be able to communicate intelligently about what a customer wants in a software engineer.

Email josh+hn@sourceress.co with your resume to apply.
