Second Measure | SF Bay Area (San Mateo, CA) | ONSITE (relo ok) | https://secondmeasure.com Second Measure analyzes credit card data. We process billions of purchases to help investors (VCs and hedge funds) answer questions like: - How quickly is Wayfair actually growing? - Is Lyft gaining or losing market share in Boston? - How does Hilton spending change after a customer's first Airbnb stay? - (More examples on our research blog [1]) We were part of YC S15 and launched last August [2]. We’re a 10-person team solving hard problems with really cool data. We’re looking for other strong builders, especially those who can grow into leadership roles: - Data Scientist (stats + ML; AWS, MTurk, NLP, and Spark helpful) - Research Scientist (stats; SQL and Python helpful; math/science PhD preferred) - Data Engineer (Python/JVM; AWS; stream processing) - Software Engineer (frontend/backend/full-stack; Python/JVM/Go; D3; AWS; React/Angular) - Others (opportunistic) Competitive salary and substantial equity. We want our early team to have a large stake in our success. We have phenomenal traction and raised a strong, $2M seed round [3]. Select investors include: Bessemer Venture Partners, Foundation Capital, Norwest Venture Partners, Shasta Ventures, and Y Combinator. We’re in downtown San Mateo, just minutes from Caltrain and 101. Email me directly, I’m a founder. (mike@) [1] http://blog.secondmeasure.com/ [2] http://techcrunch.com/2015/08/10/second-measure-launches-off...
