Original posting

San Francisco, CA Affine Systems generates data about online video using computer vision (face recognition, product recognition, scene classification, etc.) for advertisers to use in targeting and filtering their online video campaigns. We did over a million dollars in revenue last year working on campaigns for major brands. We recently raised our B round, led by Crosslink Capital, the investors behind Pandora. We are looking for test-driven engineers to work on an internet-scale video processing pipeline using Python, MySQL, Hadoop, Selenium, ffmpeg and other open source tools. Its goal is to find and ingest videos from web pages and to generate and store metadata about those videos using our vision algorithms written in C++. Please no remote hires. You must be able to work alongside us at our office in San Francisco five days a week. If interested, please contact me (founder/ CTO) at bobby@affinesystems.com Thanks.
