Idaho (remote or on-site) KickBack Rewards Systems http://www.kickbacksystems.com http://careers.kickbacksystems.com I'm a senior manager at KRS. We're a bootstrapped and profitable start-up. We're building a nation-wide coalition loyalty program and already have thousands of clients and thousands of locations on the program. Our clients include a half-dozen Fortune 50 companies - one that is an anchor partner in our coalition loyalty program. As the Director of Software Development I need some help! You will be joining a medium sized team of 11 developers. If you are interested in any of these positions my contact information is under my profile. * Data Scientist We are looking for a world-class data scientist to get in to the minds of our customers. Your job will be to analyze our "large" data-sets, identify patterns, determine consumer sentiment and provide them with incredible offer. Looking for someone with extensive programming and modeling experience using the Hadoop ecosystem. At KickBack you will research and implement new scalable learning algorithms and data mining techniques including sequential data models, variable discretization, feature extraction, selection, and construction. Machine learning a plus. We're looking for an expert. We are looking for someone someone we would consider a "game changer" and are paying accordingly. * Mobile Developer We're looking for two mobile developers who insanely great at objective-c and/or java development for Android. We have a specific vision for our mobile platform and have already moved past html5 interfaces to native applications to improve performance. We're doing things with iBeacons this year and innovating a few retail use-cases in our R&D lab for our second version of our mobile app. This is a really fun position where KickBack is small enough that specs and designs aren't handed to you. You have the freedom and opportunity to design a compelling user experience and tweak it till it's just right.
