Original posting

NewsBoy.ai | Backend Engineer | Contract (PT or FT) | Remote (US) NewsBoy.ai (https://newsboy.ai) is trying to build the newsletter for everyone. We scavenge the web for stories, news, and blogposts that we think our readers would enjoy. We then use ML to generate a daily newsletter with content we think they'd enjoy. Engineering: We're looking for an engineer to help us improve our content recommendation system to get our MVP finalized. This includes both sponsor/affiliate recommendations as well as our core article/story recommender. One of the challenges is the limited amount of data we have. Historically, newsletter ctr is fairly low. So recommendations will need to be made based on what engagement data we do have on hand. Most of our stuff runs on AWS and is written in C#. Send Resumes to: work@newsboy.ai We're targeting between $80-120/hr for this role.
