Original posting
New York, NY. Full time. We're looking for jr & sr python engineers and jr & sr frontend (js/backbone) engineers.
Percolate is a very quickly growing SAAS company in NYC. We are building a tool that helps brands create content across social. What makes us unique is that we're the only platform that doesn't already assume a brand knows what to say. To help them figure that out we pull data from across the web and make recommendations on interesting content (whether their own or third-party) that might be interesting at any moment.
We're looking for backend (all levels) and frontend engineers (we run backbone.js alongside our RESTful API) to join the team (the company is 50, product team is currently at ~20). On the backend, we're especially interested in folks with good experience working with lots of data and excited to build real-time systems.
Here's thirteen reasons why you should come work here: (1) Your chance to work with big data (2) You come in early: We're only a year-and-a-half old (3) As we get bigger, you will be able to focus on what you are good at (4) We are all different and we love it (5) GPL compliant company (6) You choose your workstation (7) You choose your tools (8) No worries, free your mind: NY salary + medical + dental (9) No vacation policy (we don't count the # of days you take in a year) (10) Company invests in you: Fly to PyCon and other conferences (11) We prefer quality over quantity: Focus on clean code and test coverage (12) Your voice will be heard (13) Every employee gets salary + equity
