Contextly, San Francisco, CA; <a href="http://contextly.com" >
Our mission is to help publishers thrive in the age of drive-by readers, with tools that are good for readers, writers and publishers. Broadly speaking that means figuring out how to get good stories to the right readers.
We do this with content recommendations that don't suck and have no misleading content. Our recommendation technology marries editorial curation to very smart machine learning. We're a small team, but we've got great clients and we're growing.
We are looking to hire our first two local engineers, who will have significant impact on the product and the company.
