If you want to be part of an organization where the environment and culture are awesome, even the executives come in to work in their jeans and T-Shirts and talk to/joke around with everyone, there is a game room with top video game consoles, a ping -pong table, Friday mixers (celebrations) with drinks, food, music, and games, a fully-stocked kitchen with plenty of snacks and drinks, and the people actually look forward to going into work every day, this is the place to be!

For immediate consideration, please submit a cover letter and resume to jobs@webjuice.com or stephen@webjuice.com. Please put "Data Scientist" in the subject field. We are an Equal Opportunity Employer.
