Who's Hiring? (take 2)
smanek: We're looking for an Android and/or iPhone part-timer or intern (we'll likely offer you a full time job in about 2 months, but we frankly can't afford it right now). It's fine if you don't know ObjectiveC+Java+Clojure+JS+Lisp. (although, ideally, you should know at least one of them).Technology: We have a fairly complete Common Lisp back end and are developing various front ends (mobile web, full web, iPhone, Android) now. Built on top of a BerkelyDB key/value store (Elephant with some secret sauce). Stateless sessions, almost completely static frontends, novel (and fast+scalable) architecture. A lot of Machine Learning and Natural Language Processing on the back end, and we're toying with the idea of some novel UIs on the front end.Business:
We can get funded now, but are looking to do a regional launch in Boston (and/or NYC) in September in order to push our valuation up. We are small now (2 business people + 2 technical peoples) but given the founders' pedigrees it's very likely we will be funded with favorable terms when we are ready.I can't say too much about the company, but email me if you are interested (for what it's worth, I'm not a founder - I'm just in charge of the technical stuff).
