Hi all,
I am looking for mathematical programmers to join my team. I work at a
startup in downtown San Francisco that focuses on distilling the
enormous amounts of publicly available data (think patents, FDA
trials, FBO grants, news, twitter, etc.) into intelligible insights
and narratives. We are using a combination of tools such as natural
language processing, machine learning, distributed computing and
large-scale network analysis. To give you a better sense of what we're
doing, here's a picture of a network of news articles about the Occupy
Wall Street movement:
http://rlmiller.org/ows.tiff I hear we'll have
a segment on NPR's All Things Considered on Monday night as well.
This position is ideally suited for someone from the Sage community.
The other teams worry about acquiring the data, structuring it
appropriately and visualizing the results of our mathematical
analyses. We do the math, using a lot of open source Python software
as well as our own secret sauce. We also make contributions back to
the tools we use, as we understand the importance of open source.
If you'd like to know more, please respond directly to me off-list. We
offer competitive salary and benefits, stock options, an office two
blocks from the bay, dinner if you're still at the office and the
chance to get paid to learn math!
Cheers,
Robert
