Are you interested in Meta / Facebook / WhatsApp? We have exactly the roles you are looking for.


Are you from a HR consultancy? (Your previous comments suggest that you're from Syapse)


Syapse (Palo Alto, http://www.syapse.com), a startup that helps doctors treat cancer, is hiring DevOps, UI, and Semantic Web engineers.

We are a part of the genomics-based personalized medicine revolution that's taking medicine by storm. Our customers include some of the world's most prestigious hospitals such as Stanford and UCSF, as well as large hospital chain, such as HCA, the largest hospital chains in the world: http://blog.sfgate.com/techchron/2015/01/29/syapse-brings-pr....

Yet we are still a young rapidly growing startup!

You do NOT have to be a biologist or a doctor to work for us. Instead, we are looking for a DevOps Engineer, hard-core lead UI engineer, and a Semantic Data Platform engineer. Enabling doctors to make better decisions for each patient saves lives.

Our technology stack includes AWS, Semantic Web (SPARQL), Python, Java, and heavy Javascript.


Everything in this article is true.

I work for Syapse (http://www.syapse.com), and we are trying to do something about this problem. As a startup, we have a laser focus - we are building systems that help practicing doctors, mainly oncologists, take advantage of genomic data. We focus on improving UI, workflows, alerts, access to up-to-date knowledge and yes, data entry.

If you are interested in this field, please consider applying for one of the open positions. We are looking for server engineers, data systems engineers, UI engineers, DevOps, etc. We are located in downtown Palo Alto, CA.


Thanks, looks like a great product. I'm a medical oncologist doing targeted sequencing for breast cancer at an academic center in Australia. We're small by American standards but there isn't a similar service in the country as far as I know. At the moment we're doing it for free as we have some research funding and are still refining the sequencing workflow.

I would love to have a platform like this. At the moment the analysis, curation, reporting and suggestion of clinical trials is all done manually by me.


I looked at your website, but alas I didn't go to Stanford or a UC.


Don't worry about that, I work at Syapse too and I have an MA in Chinese lit from UMASS. You could be totally self taught like me and as long as you have skills and a good attitude you will be considered. Everyone there is super nice and open minded.

Our technology stack includes Semantic Web (RDF, OWL, SPARQL), Python, Java, and heavy Javascript.


Same as what everybody else is saying. Solid SDK, but downtime is a major issue. Worse, some partial downtime scenarios or bugs get next to no attention for days. It may not be a "site down" situation, but it may be critical for your app. And yes, documentation is extremely sparse, with few real world examples if any.
