Original posting

Vurb - San Francisco, CA - http://vurb.com We won TechCrunch Disrupt NYC - http://techcrunch.com/2014/05/05/vurb/ Vurb is working on reinventing search, browsing, and sharing - by creating an intelligent layer over the Internet that helps you get things done in one place. Rather than opening lots of windows/tabs or hopping from mobile app to mobile app, we're building a platform that brings everything together. We do this by connecting the services we use in a contextual way, through data technologies (search, machine learning, big data, etc.) and original thinking around UI/UX. We're very well funded - Max Levchin, Drew Houston (Dropbox), Naval Ravikant (AngelList), CrunchFund, and many others. This is a hard problem, but it has the potential to change the behavior of how we do things on the Internet (and make it fun!) Full-time opportunities in San Francisco (interview on-site, H1B transfers OK) * Search / Data Scientist / Data Engineer - search, classification, ranking, ML, recommendation systems, NLP, graph dbs, data crawling/processing. Search experience strongly desired. * Full-stack Engineer - experience in JavaScript and async programming (e.g., node.js) a plus * Lead Android Engineer - help bring our Android version to market * Lead Designer - sharp eye for visual and/or UX design - please include your portfolio or Dribbble jobs@vurb.com | angel.co/vurb
