The team currently consists of Ben Hamlin and Maya Tobias—both 2014 graduates of UC-Berkeley's Full-Time MBA program. We launched our minimum viable product in mid-January – see here: www.localwisejobs.com.\n\nWe’ve achieved the following since our launch:\n• 1500+ applications\n• 10 partnerships with colleges to source applicants\n• Jobs and applications both rising over 100% month-over-month\n• Interest from prominent institutional investors\n• “Best Overall Team” at NSF/UC-Berkeley’s Innovation Corps Program\n• Admitted to SkyDeck, UC-Berkeley’s premier accelerator\n\nWe seek a technical partner to help Localwise execute a much grander vision. We aim to completely reengineer the process by which local businesses hire part-time employees. Today, both applicants and employers hate the cover letter/resume driven approach. We seek to replace the status quo with algorithms that predict quality job-to-applicant matches. Our model is inspired by principles from online dating and machine learning. \n\nOur ideal candidate has the following characteristics: \n• Full-stack web developer\n• Experience in: (i) building and deploying web-based platforms (ii) databases (iii) machine learning\n• Keen attention to detail\n• Passion for local communities\n• Extremely hardworking, yet fun to hang out with\n\nWe are flexible about the language, database, and platform that will be used, so this is a great opportunity for someone who wants creative freedom. We are happy to award the position of CTO and/or technical co-founder the right person!\n\nIf you're interested in learning more about the position, please contact Ben Hamlin at [email protected].\n\nWe look forward to hearing from you!\n-- Ben + Maya, Team Localwise \n\n#Salary and compensation\n $10,000 — $100,000/year\n
