Thinknum | New York | Multiple Positions | On-site - Full-time | $70k-$140k + equity === Who We Are === Thinknum is one of the fastest growing profitable SaaS companies in the world. Economic activity is coming online - companies are selling products, hiring employees, marketing and moving operations to the web. Thinknum captures the data trails that are created (e.g., How quickly is UberEATS growing on a restaurant-by-restaurant basis vs Grubhub?). We work with hundreds of financial institutions and corporations. We have a private office in Midtown and offer full benefits. === Who We Are Looking For === Web Crawling Engineer We're looking for an experienced Python engineer that will extract and ingest data from websites using web crawling tools or APIs. You will need experience in Python and Javascript and to be familiar with the DOM and tools for parsing the DOM like Selenium and BeautifulSoup. At least two years of experience in web crawling is required. ReactJS Front-End Engineer We’re looking for an experienced ReactJS front-end engineer to implement features that enable users to intuitively answer questions on companies they are analyzing. You will need experience in ReactJS, CSS and an eye for great design. Reporter We’re looking for reporters / writers who want to be part of a major, brand-new media property launch. You should be comfortable covering anything from: technology, to politics, to retail or economics and entertainment. You should also be skilled in ideating, pitching and developing stories, proactive research, and (more than anything) a great writer. All subject matters considered and writing backgrounds welcomed. Big plus if you already have samples of your previous work to share. Site Reliability Engineer We’re looking for a SRE that will support enterprise level applications hosted in the cloud. You need to have extensive experience in web application development and exposure to Amazon Web Services, Redshift and Postgres. Experience with container management and micro-services architectures such as Docker is a requirement. Enthusiasm for security best practices is a major plus. === Interested? === Interested in any of these positions?
