Fundraising is medieval. Time to fix it.

Too many meetings, too many emails, too much driving around. The venture industry funds the future but still operates like 1999

Signal was built to help top founders and VCs find each other quickly so founders get the intros to the right VCs at the right time.

Want to improve education?

TES USA (Blendspace, Wikispaces) - San Francisco - Fulltime fullstack web developer, front-end engineer and backend engineer wanted

Join us as the 7th engineer of TES USA (Blendspace, Wikispaces and TES Resources) and help us build technology to serve the 6M+ teachers who use our products.

==== What you'll do ====

As a small team of 15, there is lots to do! Designing and building new parts of our applications, working on our front-end javascript and AJAX, squeezing a few more requests/second out of our web heads, working on our replicated databases and file storage.

We are hiring for:

- Fullstack web developer

- Front-end engineer

- Backend engineer

==== Who you are ====

You are fluent in Node.js, PHP, Python, Java, or Ruby and can pick up a language from this list you don't yet know. We are interested in developers that feel comfortable using modern technologies and want to make a big impact in improving K-12 education.

==== Interested? ====

Learn more: http://www.wikispaces.com/jobs or contact Dom at dbellizzi@wikispaces.com.

I'm in the current cohort building Edcanvas (http://www.edcanvas.com) and the program has been super helpful in getting us to where we are today. Our team was in a special position where we had to scrap our initial company before coming in but the partners were super helpful/supportive along the way.

If you want to solve hard problems that really matter, edtech is the place to be.
