Our service helps doctors provide better care to their patients every day. Candidates will get to work at a mission-driven startup where the primary goal is to help bring doctors and AI together for better, more efficient patient care. We are a 10-person funded startup full of friendly, collaborative, and positive people working remotely. This position will report directly to one of the MD/PhD co-founders and include many opportunities for fast-paced experiences with the potential for rapid advancement.
Role includes work with high-impact technologies and scalable infrastructure e.g. Kubernetes, CI/CD flows, React, Golang, and a speech-to-text processing cluster. Candidates will also work with various cloud services but primarily AWS. Compensation will include equity (vesting over 4 years).
We are beginning to scale rapidly and are building out the core parts of our infrastructure. This involves a REST API that is already handling hundreds of thousands of requests a day, realtime audio processing, integration with our AI models. There are many interesting and important problems to solve and we’re looking for a senior engineer who would like to tackle them with us. We also value good communication skills and the ability to rapidly execute end-to-end and iterate on solutions to improve them over time as necessary.
As a startup, new challenges arise every day and we all work together to find solutions. Each one of us feels ownership of the final product. If you are motivated, self-directed, creative, and cooperative, we have a fantastic team for you to join.
We are primarily remote with team members across the US including in NYC, Nashville, Boston, and Cleveland.

I'm a millennial and wanted to help myself (and others) learn new career skills. So I built an app using React Native and Redux, pulling from the Udemy API. Backend is Firebase.
I'm learning how to make apps at the moment, but want to stay active on the business side, so this seemed like a fun way to do that and help out at the same time.
It's not true that album sales are a lost cause. Look at Bandcamp -- musicians made $2.5 million via Bandcamp over the last 30 days. What's changing is the model. No longer is it "pay a set fee to listen." Now it's "support the musician directly."
I agree that the problem is primarily with the record labels. If they didn't exist, Spotify would be able to pay out to musicians on a level playing field. That said, given how closely intertwined Spotify and the labels are, musicians can't depend on either party to look out for their interests.
This kind of reasoning on the part of DHH is troubling to me. He's basically saying that there is always one best way to do something. That may be correct. But what's troubling is that Rails is so focused on its "One best way" to do everything. Rails forgoes complete through-and-through consistency in favor of "magic" -- because it's quicker and easier. That's fine, but it doesn't have the ring of complete truth that I expect from a truly great idea, or framework.
This is a phenomenally dumb move. Instagram is (was) cool because of the absence of ads or any other monetization features. It was free, simple, clean, and fun. Now it begins the slow march towards a crowded, busy, ad-littered experience. And this is really bad press.
Concert Window is bringing the live concert experience online. We are fully funded, working out of General Assembly, and already selling to paying customers.
We're bringing on a lead developer. Rails preferred. Love of music is a big plus.
I'm not sure they did that deck in-house. In the footer it says "Designed by Moxy Creative House" and that level of visual polish isn't present on the main Piccsy site.
Just uninformed guessing, but interesting if it's true.
Concert Window is bringing on a CTO in New York, NY.
We are creating a way for people to watch live concerts online. We've already built an exclusive network of nine top venues around the country and developed proprietary tech for producing the webcasts. We are supported by Mark O'Connor and Wynton Marsalis, and recently closed an angel round of seed funding.
We are making revenue already, with thousands of paying customers.
Now, we're bringing on a CTO to mastermind the technical infrastructure that will power Concert Window going forward. We don't care what language or stack you use; we're looking mostly for an extremely high quality candidate who wants to take ownership of creating this infrastructure.
The company is run by two Harvard grads and musicians. Ideally you are also a musician or music lover.
A key differentiator here vs. Dropbox that I think people are overlooking is the fact that you can actually edit your files and collaborate easily. The transition to cloud-based apps is underway, and Dropbox -- in this respect -- is about to be stuck in the past.
I've been trying out the Art.sy beta, and although the Art Project seems to have more functionality, I like the navigation experience on Art.sy better. Art.sy is simpler and more artwork-focused, which leads to more random browsing. That said, Art Project is very well done. The winner of this market will probably be determined by content, ie. who can sign the most museum partnerships.
yeah, server just melted. Up now. Here's text in case it goes down again:

You know those Craigslist missed connections posts? The ones where you’re looking across the subway platform at someone, and you wish you could get their number, but you can’t really shout across the tracks?
Well, I was in New York City this weekend and I had a sudden inspiration. There’s a (hypothetical) solution to the “missed connections” problem. And it’s sitting around in plain sight.
Here’s how it works. Many of you are probably aware that Facebook has been steadily developing its facial recognition algorithm. It’s quite good at this point. It can scan any of your photos and tag you automatically, if you’ve enabled the feature. That means Facebook’s algorithm can recognize your unique face. It stands to reason, therefore, that Facebook’s algorithm could scan any photo from any of its 800 million members, and recognize you if you’re in it.
So, let’s take that one logical step further. Imagine you take a photo of someone and upload it to Facebook’s servers. Facebook can analyze the photo and tag that person’s face.
I bet you see where I’m going with this.
You’re back on the subway platform — you see someone across the way. You raise your phone and snap a quick picture via the Facebook app. The train comes. While you’re pulling away, the app has displayed that person’s profile. You click “friend.”
And just like that, missed connections are a thing of the past.
Interesting, eh? Also, creepy. Obviously, if Facebook enabled this feature it would cause a firestorm of privacy concerns. But Facebook hasn’t exactly shown much concern for privacy in the past. And everyone does have a public profile, anyway… and subways are public areas. Given that the tech exists right now, I bet we’ll see this within a couple years.
So, what if once you upload the "missed connection" photo, Facebook tags it with GPS and filters possible matches against your current location? That would narrow it down quite a bit. I assume they have enough GPS data from other users' photos and status updates to at least place them generally within a state or city at a given time.
Grooveshark has said repeatedly that they're trying to help artists, but when you look at their business model (upload a bunch of songs illegally, get eyeballs, then charge labels for data), it's been clear all along that the only party they care about is themselves.
Bad karma will always, always come back and bite you.
