Über-geek (With musical interests) Davis Sq. Start-Up Opportunity

[jbsegal]

I just got this via an amusingly odd chain of connections.

If you know anyone for whom this would be a good match and they apply, let me know, so I can tell them, and the person I got this from, how they ended up there. :)

The person who forwarded it to me was told:
"brian whitman's a very good guy doing various sorts of music classification work."

Their web page is useless at this point.

Wow. I have their requirements in spades. However, "startup pay and hours" is nowhere close to an inducement to move to Taxachusetts.
