Overview
Conductor is an established startup with the majority of our employees –and the entire tech team- based out of our NYC headquarters. We raised $20M in Series C funding last year and are on our way to becoming a top enterprise software company. Our Searchlight product provides enterprise-marketing teams with crucial data that helps maximize their online marketing programs.
Conductor software engineers face some of the most difficult challenges in enterprise software engineering. We have thousands of users logging into our product every day and we collect over 4TB of heterogeneous data each week. We’re building a distributed web crawling & data collection system that gathers and extracts information on millions of dynamic documents. Our Web Services Team is responsible for engineering the core infrastructure behind gathering and evaluating our analytics.
Scaling the product to handle more data, more clients, and more server requests is a top priority for Conductor as we kick off 2013. We are looking for a Senior Engineer who will lead new projects on our Back End Team.
