We at UnFound are developing a product which simplifies complex and cluttered news into simple themes, removes bias by showing all (& often unheard of) perspectives, and produce crisp summaries- all with minimal human intervention! We are looking for a passionate and experienced CTO level person to join us! (don't worry, you don't need grey hairs &/or a suit). We want someone who can take initiatives. If you need to be micro-managed, this is NOT the role for you. __ Few things we'd like (if) you have: 1. Strong computer science background. 2. Experience in designing end-to-end software products (especially with teams!). 3. Experience with designing web-services, micro-service architecture, RESTful API's. 4. Hands on with front-end frameworks such as Angular, React. 5. Strong experience in web and mobile app development. 6. Be able to architect Machine Learning, Deep Learning (& especially NLP) solutions. 7. Strong experience with relational and NoSQL databases. 8. Hands on with AWS, and other cloud platforms. 9. Excellent DESIGN sense 10. Should be able to manage/guide team While the above points are a plus, curiosity to learn and bias for action is what matters most to us.
