About us:
Chenope is a bootstrap, or self-funded start-up, that creates pioneering analytics technology for predicting outcomes related to any kind of organization, including but not limited to:
- Social Network Analysis;
- Opinion Mining;
- Text and Image Analytics;
- Information Retrieval;
- Influence detection
Our technology has been proven in complex mission-critical organizational data analysis scenarios with organizations as diverse as Fortune 1000 companies and violent street gangs. Chenope was founded by an experienced team who had previously achieved success bootstrapping a startup, and already boasts a partnership with a multi-billion dollar company and a sweeping patent that was granted in its entirety. We are a cross-Atlantic startup; most of our team is in Edinburgh, or in the San Francisco area. We're still fairly early stage, which means that each person has a lot of responsibility and a lot of room to grow.
If you want to join a startup with technology that is good enough that customers are willing to pay for it, work on interesting problems, and learn what it takes to build a real business, we could be a great place for you. There are not many like us.
We are currently looking for both front-end and back-end developers. We will consider both full-time and part-time applications. All applicants must have the right to work in the UK, EU, or US - no exceptions unfortunately.
Front-end or Full-Stack Developer:
- Experience developing complex web apps that have been used in a commercial setting.
- Experience with visualizations is a plus, as is experience with React and other similar Javascript frameworks - we're agnostic as to which one.
- Experience with user interface design likewise.
- An interest in analytics is helpful.
Back-end developer - Algorithms:
- Must have strong background in Information Retrieval, NLP, or a similar discipline, or a strong math and algorithms background.
- You must be able to implement the tools as well as develop the underlying algorithms for this work, including the construction and manipulation of large graphs and hypergraphs.
- Strongly prefer someone having worked on high-value Information Retrival, Social Network Analysis, or Data Mining problems and who has the proven capability to do original work.
- Excellent knowledge of Java preferred.
- Any kind of degree or background okay - our interest is solely in your capacity to do the work.
Prior startup experience preferred, but is not required. To apply, please send your resume with at least a brief cover letter to work at chenope.com. Or if you have informal enquiries, do not hesitate to get in touch.
