Intellimize | Several eng roles | REMOTE (US or Canada only) or ONSITE San Mateo, CA | FULL-TIME | https://www.intellimize.com/careers/

Intellimize optimizes websites to generate more revenue. We use machine learning to automatically optimize each buyer’s path to drive more web conversions.

Our unique solution enables experimentation and personalization at an unparalleled scale, and it replaces traditional approaches to optimization such as A/B testing and rules-based personalization. These methods are too slow, require daily attention, and don’t automatically adapt to changes in behavior over time.

Open roles I'm hiring for:

* Back end / ML engineer, all levels (https://www.intellimize.com/careers/jobs/?gh_jid=4033757004 and https://www.intellimize.com/careers/jobs/?gh_jid=4002964004)

* Site reliability engineer (https://www.intellimize.com/careers/jobs/?gh_jid=4088778004)

* Tech lead manager (https://www.intellimize.com/careers/jobs/?gh_jid=4092581004)

For the back end role, the exact ML / non-ML blend is flexible, and we'd be happy to have a great back-end engineer join us without any ML background. The SRE role is our first SRE (and we're hiring more than one); it's a great opportunity to help shape how we think about SREing.

Primary technologies: Java, Python, Tensorflow, Spark, Airflow, AWS.

Our team is positive, low ego, and customer focused. Strong communication skills are a must.

We plan to re-open our San Mateo office soon, and the company will continue to embrace remote work (it's going great for us!). Our engineering team is is remote-first.

Please apply using one of the links above and mention this post. (If you're not sure which is right right fit for you, just apply to one; I review all applications, and we can discuss which is the best fit for you.) You can reach me directly at alex@ if you have any questions. I'm the hiring manager for these positions.

Re:A mathematician's guided tour through higher dimensions on Monday September 20, 2021 @04:26PM (#28598534)
nice proof!

usually, "higher dimensional knot" refers to embeddings of n-dim spheres into (n+2)-dimensional spheres (or R^(n+2)). (if the distinction between R^(n+2) and (n+2)-spheres scares you, don't worry about it! it's just one point!)

usual knot theory: n = 1, m = 3 OP's proof relates to: n = 1, m = 4

when m - n (the "codimension") is >2, as in the the case from OP's post, there is "so much room" that unknotting can always happen. and at codimension 1, there "isn't enough room". so the interesting theory is codim-2.

in fact, there is a well studied theory. here's a book on the subject (disclaimer: I haven't read it): https://www.maths.ed.ac.uk/~v1ranick/books/knot.pdf

Quora’s mission is to share and grow the world’s knowledge. We are a web-scale Library of Alexandria, a place where people go to learn about anything and share everything they know.

At Quora, we use Machine Learning in almost every part of the product - feed ranking, answer ranking, search, topic and user recommendations, spam detection, etc. Within the past year we released a large question sincerity dataset [1], improved our statistical tests for ratio metrics [2], and introduced a new feature that allows people to curate collections and form communities around shared interests and tastes [3].

As a Machine Learning expert, you will have a unique opportunity to have high impact by advancing these systems, as well as uncovering new opportunities to apply Machine Learning to the Quora product. As a ML Infrastructure Expert, you will play a key role in developing tools and abstractions that our other developers would build on top of.

Quora | {ML, ML infrastructure} {Engineer, Engineering Manager} | Mountain View, CA | Full-time, ONSITE

Quora’s mission is to share and grow the world’s knowledge. We are a web-scale Library of Alexandria, a place where people go to learn about anything and share everything they know.

At Quora, we use Machine Learning in almost every part of the product - feed ranking, answer ranking, search, topic and user recommendations, spam detection, etc. Within the past few months we released a large question sincerity dataset [1], improved our statistical tests for ratio metrics [2], and introduced a new feature that allows people to curate collections and form communities around shared interests and tastes [3].

As a Machine Learning expert, you will have a unique opportunity to have high impact by advancing these systems, as well as uncovering new opportunities to apply Machine Learning to the Quora product. As a ML Infrastructure Expert, you will play a key role in developing tools and abstractions that our other developers would build on top of.
