We’re looking for some talented coders, of all stripes, to join our rapidly growing team and help us solve some of the world’s most difficult problems. One of the best things about working at Cataphora is the sheer variety and scale of the technical challenges that we face every day. We have no shortage of substantive real world problems, all with high levels of importance and visibility to our clients. We have a need for people that can navigate the maze, developing solutions to take our technology to the next level.
At Cataphora, we expect you to be creative and versatile, but of course it’s always great if there’s a specific area of technology you’re especially talented in. Depending on your skill set, you may be tasked with developing cutting-edge algorithms for analyzing very large datasets, solving hairy data visualization problems, designing a user interface that satisfies an extremely diverse and demanding clientele, doing groundbreaking research into natural language processing and machine learning, or creating high-availability distributed enterprise software products installed in organizations with tens of thousands of users. If your response to uncertainty is to dive in headfirst, rather than run away, Cataphora may be the right fit for you.
What we don’t care about
- What college you went to (or if you went at all, for that matter)
- How many years of experience you have (though, of course, more senior engineers will be considered as such)
- What your previous job titles were
- What programming languages you know (internally, we use a mix of Java, C++, and Python, but if you’re smart, you can always learn)
- Any other silly buzzwords
What we do care about
- Your intelligence and problem solving capacity
- Your ability to write high-performing, reliable production code
- Technical creativity, pragmatism, and flexibility in approaches used
- An ability to solve problems under conditions that can be demanding due to time constraints, problem difficulty, and less than complete specification of requirements
- Most importantly, a belief that there is always a better way
Note: You must have U.S. citizenship, permanent residency, or be able to obtain a visa with authorization to work in the United States. We will sponsor visas where appropriate.
To apply, please send your resume (inline preferred; RTF, Word Doc or PDF otherwise) to work@cataphora.com.
