AvantCredit (Chicago) is hiring senior data scientists, data engineers, and data dev ops. We offer competitive salaries and a flexible work environment.

http://avantcredit.com/jobs

We have gone from 0 to 150 employees in a little under fifteen months and have raised more money last quarter than all other Chicago startups in the same period last year combined. (http://bit.ly/1hp2cx4)

Our stack is Ruby on Rails and R deployed on Heroku and AWS, respectively, and we do not mess around. All of our R packages are documented, tested, and vignetted. We have continuous deployment and integration (yes, on the data science side!), and all of our classifiers are automatically backtested and validated.

We're trying to give https://github.com/hadley a run for his money. Sound interesting? Email [email protected]
