Parse.ly | Success Engineers + Software Engineers | Remote | Full-Time
What's Parse.ly? We've built a real-time content measurement layer for the entire web. Our analytics platform helps digital storytellers at some of the web's best sites, such as Arstechnica, The New Yorker, TechCrunch, The Intercept, Mashable, and many more. In total, our analytics system handles over 65 billion monthly events from over 1 billion monthly unique visitors.
Parse.ly is a fully distributed team, as described here: <a href="
Our entire stack is in Python and JavaScript, and our team has innovated in areas related to real-time analytics, building some of the best open source tools for working with modern stream processing technologies. Our UX/design team has also built one of the best-looking dashboards on the planet, using AngularJS and d3.js. You can see some screenshots: <a href="
Our distributed team is best-in-class and we happily skip commutes by working out of our ergonomic home offices. Here's a photograph of mine running two full-screen Parse.ly dashboards on my monitors: <a href="

As for the roles available:
Success Engineer - At Parse.ly, we think code + communication = success. The goal of a Success Engineer: ensure our customers are delighted with our products, through the wise application of technical know-how, engineering magic, and strong communication skills.

Software Engineer - Are you a more advanced programmer with interest in data engineering who wants to work with Python, Storm, Spark, Kafka, Elasticsearch, and petabyte-scale datasets? Or, are you a user experience programmer who wants to build beautiful dashboards and data visualizations, using JavaScript, d3.js, Swift (iOS), and similar tools? If either of these teams sound appealing, then please send a cover letter, CV/resume, and optionally links to projects or code, to the email address here: REDACTED_EMAIL.
For either role, when you email us, make sure to indicate which role you're interested in and that you're coming from this HN thread. Note that though Parse.ly is fully distributed team, we prioritize candidates in ET/CT/MT timezones (or close) and who have past experience working remotely.
