Alluvium | Multiple positions full-time| New York City | Onsite

Alluvium puts machine learning to work to help industrial customers achieve operational stability and perfect their production. We have developed a computing platform that is designed to turn massive streams of complex machine and operator data into simple, real-time insights.

Open roles: Data Scientist, Backend Engineer, DevOps Engineer

To apply: https://alluvium.io/careers/

Alluvium | Brooklyn, NY | ONSITE | Full-time | http://www.alluvium.io/

Alluvium is an enterprise software startup developing a mesh intelligence platform for complex industrial operations. The platform is designed to support machine intelligence software services for industrial operations wherein there are complex streams of heterogenous data, and expert human operators tied to those operations. The company was founded in September, 2015, and since then has received interest from a broad spectrum of industries – most notably oil and gas, fleet and logistics, and advanced manufacturing.

We're looking for software engineers and product engineers to join our small team in Brooklyn and help us build core products and technology.

As a software engineer you will help us build out our core stream processing platforms for doing distributed machine learning on noisy streaming data from physical systems. We primarily work in Scala.

As a product engineer you will design and build great web experiences for our users by understanding their workflows and finding ways to convey complex information. If that sounds interesting to you, we would love to hear from you: http://www.alluvium.io/software-engineer http://www.alluvium.io/product-engineer

I doubt there is any professional endeavor free of "politics and politicking." Universities are large bureaucracies, and come with all of the institutional morass present in other organizations of such scale.

"...corporations offer such perks as BMWs and $15,000 signing bonuses, as Raytheon did in June for software developers with top-level clearances."

That seems very low, considering the relative scarcity of people with TS clearances and the level of compensation made by software engineers in industry.

Am I right?
