== Sr Software Engineer, Data ==

We're looking for an engineer to lead one of the the world's biggest portfolio tracking platforms! We currently sync $75 billion with over 80 brokerages.

The ideal candidate will have deep experience in web scraping and web service APIs to build out and expand our platform. If you have a knack for scraping websites with challenges such as requiring authenticated sessions and relying heavily on AJAX to render content — and have a strong interest in finance — let's talk.

= Responsibilities = * Develop and expand our technology for importing data from brokerages and other data providers * Build systems and monitors to ensure the imported data is reliable and accurate * Lead other engineers who are fanatical about web scraping challenges

= Ideal Qualifications = * Relentless resourcefulness (of course!) * 5+ years experience in software development, and in particular web scraping technologies * Expert in developing (PHP, Python, Ruby, Java, or C++) * Extensive experience building scalable, reliable distributed services * Knowledge of Amazon Web Services, NoSQL, or Statistics is a plus * Interest in investing a huge plus
