Iterable - San Francisco - Full Time - ONSITE

Iterable (http://iterable.com) is an enterprise Software as a Service platform for B2C marketers. Our mission is to take the growth marketing and user engagement tools built at companies like Twitter and Facebook, and make them available to all B2C marketers. We know this space well: our team built the growth systems that powered Twitter’s massive early growth.

We are a small team (7 total) but already have traction. We have many enterprise customers paying us well over $10k/month each and we have grown over 700% so far this year. This is a opportunity to join a super-fast growing startup, in a huge market and with a great team, while it's still early.

Some of the positions we are hiring for:

Infra/Back-end Engineers - https://jobs.lever.co/iterable/2cab5696-81fb-403d-938f-a0a6a...

Front-end Engineers - https://jobs.lever.co/iterable/8118b95e-edf4-4a0b-87d7-0a2bc...

Mobile Engineers - https://jobs.lever.co/iterable/a5ee5f1c-a769-492d-82fa-a0980...

Why is that a big jump? I'm not saying it will be easy or quick. It does imply that getting from a reptile-level intelligence to a human-level intelligence was a natural process and something that can be reverse engineered.

From a pure layman's perspective: if you believe in evolution, then what separates us from a reptile (as mentioned in the post) is almost certainly something we can figure out and replicate. There is nothing "special" there.

So if you believe computers today already have the "intelligence" of a reptile, or a toddler (i.e., ability to play pong), or something along those lines, it's only a matter of time before a computer has the intelligence of a full-blown adult human (and soon thereafter much more).

Our level of intelligence/awareness seems magical only because we haven't fully understood it yet. That will change.

Thanks. You make a good point about the rewards. I thought 1% could be a decent estimate given that not everyone pays attention, some points are never redeemed and rewards over 1% are usually only for specific purchase types (e.g., gas). But I may very well have underestimated this. And if people do redeem at a 90%+ rate, then they will definitely notice if there are no rewards on the Bitcoin side.

Very interesting.

It's a good question and also needs to be answered. I'm the author of the post and have one coming on the consumer side.
