Second Measure (YC S15) | SF Bay Area (San Mateo, CA) | ONSITE (relo ok) | https://secondmeasure.com

Second Measure analyzes credit card data. We process billions of purchases to help investors (VCs and hedge funds) answer questions like:

  - How quickly is Shake Shack growing?
  - Is Lyft gaining or losing market share in Boston?
  - How does Hilton spending change after a customer's first Airbnb stay?
  - (Check out our research blog [1])
…through an analytics platform we build in-house.

We’re a 13-person team comprising mostly engineers and data scientists. 10 of us are technical, and 4 have PhDs. We love solving hard problems with compelling data.

We’re looking for other strong builders, especially those who can grow into leadership roles:

  - Data Scientist (quantitative PhD preferred)
  - Data Journalist  
  - Research Analyst
  - Software Engineer (frontend/backend/full-stack/data; mid-to-senior+)
  - Product Designer (UX-centric)
  - (See our job board [2])
Competitive salary and substantial equity. We want our early team to have a large stake in our success.

We’re in downtown San Mateo, just minutes from Caltrain and 101.

I'm a founder (mike@). Submit via job board and mention HN, or email jobs@ and CC me.
