Sequoia Capital | Menlo Park, CA | Venture Capital - Data Science & Engineering | REMOTE during SiP, On-Site One Day A Week Afterwards | Full Time

We are a small group of senior technologists operating in Sequoia Capital. Our group’s mission is to use data and software to invest in the world’s most promising startups.

We seek senior software engineers. Most of our work is in the backend and centered on data infrastructure. However, we also have opportunities to work on consumer-grade frontend projects. Ideally, you will have 10+ years of industry experience and feel confident building large distributed systems.

We are a small team and hope to remain small for a long time to come. We operate on high degrees of trust and autonomy. This is a fantastic opportunity for engineers who want startup-like camaraderie while enjoying all the benefits of a large employer. Just like a startup, there is an opportunity to share in the financial upside.

Sequoia offers robust benefits, team volunteering opportunities, and invests in training and personal development for all team members. The work you do at Sequoia ultimately drives returns for our Limited Partners, many of which are nonprofits and schools like the Ford Foundation, Mayo Clinic and MIT.

tl;dr - Somebody scraped massive amounts of FB data over a number of years and then abandoned it on a public S3 bucket.

tl;dr - A16Z is reclassifying themselves as an "investment advisor", which will allow them to make riskier bets (crypto, real estate, etc). They'll still invest in startups like any other VC firm.
