Weft - http://weft.io - Cambridge/Boston, MA -- ONSITE

    === What we do ===
We're a unified logistics intelligence platform -- we track every boat on the water, every plane in the sky, and are working on tracking every truck on the ground (+ a bunch of other indirectly related data sets) so that we can know everything that's going on in the logistics world.

Turns out there're lots of inefficiencies in the supply chain! One of our customers spends $400mm/year shipping empty containers, another spends $80mm/year on late fees. Lots to optimize!

    === Crib notes ===
- Clojure, Rails, Javascript, Python (we use a lot of PySpark)

- Spark, pg, redis, kafka, accumulo, docker

- We have one of the world's experts in Deep Learning on our team

- We eat + drink together a lot... Taco tuesday, wino wednesday, whiskey thursday (though I think we should rename it to thirsty thursday), foodie friday

    === Looking for ===
Mid-level and senior-level folks in:

- Data science

- Data engineering

- Backend engineering

- Firmware engineering (yeah, we make hardware, too)

- Front-end engineering

If this sounds interesting, please shoot us an email at jobs@weft.io! Tell 'em Marc sent you.
