The Climate Corporation

http://www.climate.com

We have offices in San Franscisco, Seattle, Chicago, and Saint Louis, onsite only.

We're looking for senior software engineers (10+ years.) We have a lot of Clojure and some Scala here, any FP experience is good though. There's also a lot of Python, Ruby, and R laying around, but mostly just legacy stuff. We handle a lot of data, experience handling a lot of data or distributed systems is a big plus. We're processing satellite imagery for many states every day, all in AWS.

Fair warning, our parent company is Monsanto, and some people might have an issue with that. On the upside, you'll get to work with for-real scientists on a daily basis and Monsanto has excellent benefits. And we have lots of for-real paying customers.

Please email me at chris.gore@climate.com if you are interested, thanks.

I respect you guys for stating this upfront. Hope you find someone suitable.


Thanks.

I don't have a problem with GMOs (I'm really into genetics personally, I did natural computation during my MS thesis). And the lawsuits against farmers seem reasonable given their seed contracts, more reasonable than software patents or EULAs to me.

But I know some people disagree about that.


A friend of my father used to be a researcher at Monsanto, so he explained a lot of the basics behind what they're doing to me. Absolutely amazing tech to be frank.

So yeah, I personally don't have a problem with GMOs either, but as you mentioned, some people might.
