Do you want to work with global leaders in R and R Shiny? As it turns out, you can – from anywhere around the world. We have exciting projects with multiple Fortune 500 companies coming up in 2021, and we want you to be involved! We’re hiring for 10+ remote positions, including R Shiny developers, frontend specialists, and fullstack engineers.

Appsilon was founded in 2013 by software engineering veterans from Google, Microsoft, Bank of America, and Domino Data Lab. Over the years, our team has excelled in providing innovative data analytics and machine learning solutions for enterprise companies, NGOs, and non-profit organizations. Despite global challenges, 2020 has been a year of explosive growth for us. We’ve recently added many kind and intelligent people to our team from all over the globe, and we’re still searching for more talent. 

Why Should You Work at Appsilon?

Appsilon is a remote-first company. We are very proud of our remote-first policy, and we pivoted to a remote setup at the beginning of the COVID-19 crisis. This past year has proved that not only can we maintain our current pace of work and high standards in a remote environment, but that we can also expand and improve!

At Appsilon, we value work-life harmony. It’s possible to have a challenging and stimulating career without sacrificing your personal life or family time with us. We value mental and physical health, and we encourage each other to enjoy hobbies outside of work.

At Appsilon, you will also have an opportunity to work with some of the world’s most influential Fortune 500 companies on exciting data science and visualization projects. Here are the kinds of projects that we work on at Appsilon:

Application/Dashboard Development with R Shiny

We create, maintain, and develop Shiny applications for enterprise customers all over the world. We provide scalability, security, and modern UI/UX with custom R packages that native Shiny apps do not offer. At Appsilon, we are among the world’s foremost experts in R Shiny and have made various Shiny innovations over the years. We cover everything from business analysis and data science consulting to code refactoring.

Wildlife Image Classification with Machine Learning

Since 2018 we’ve been working with Gabon’s National Park Agency to lead a large-scale biodiversity monitoring program that uses 200 camera traps to survey the mammal population in Lopé and Waka National Parks (comprising 7000 km2 of a continuous forest).

This project aims to build capacity for long-term, scientifically rigorous biodiversity monitoring in both national parks and within the National Parks Agency as a whole. On this project, we are building a fully open-source multi-platform solution for wildlife image classification. The project is directly tied to our AI For Good initiative.
