Kensho, Boston, MA (Cambridge), Stamford, CT, New York, NY (NYC) and coming soon San Francisco (SF): FULL TIME Software Engineers, SRE, SET, UX or UI Designers ONSITE Kensho's growing engineering team[0] overlooks in Harvard Sq. We are making financial analysis faster, accessible, intuitive and beautiful through our partnerships with Goldman Sachs[1] and CNBC[2] Software Engineers, Site Reliability (SREs), Test/QA (SET), and hands-on Data Scientists We're hiring fun-loving, hands-on nerds at every experience level, layer of the stack and facet of our technology. We look for people who a hungry to learn, figure things out quickly, and are massively productive using technology and math. To really catch our eye, show off your: * Mindful coding combined with ambitious productivity * Architectural sense applied using practical, iterative steps * Charting, visualization or optimization skills in javascript * Style, workflow and responsive designs * Experience at scale with machine learning, NLP, or unstructured data * Ability to design and build scalable infrastructure While we primarily use Python (especially pandas and NumPy) and React/AngularJS/d3js, that is just implementation detail and you can interview in the language of your choice. UX or UI Designers Design is critical to every aspect of our work. We look for a crisp design aesthetic applied to complicated workflows or experienced UX methodology that produces intuitive designs. We hope you will * Share your portfolio and walk us through your design process * Work through a design with us Experience with finance is not expected. A willingness to play bughouse, play ticket to ride, and shoot zombies is a plus. But first, you have to say hello[3] Matt [0] http://kensho.com/#team [1] http://www.bloomberg.com/news/features/2015-07-28/how-goldma...
