We have a new Facebook group. I want to interact with you all more and let the community meet one another. Hope this group helps accomplish that.
I have a request: if I were to start a YouTube channel or podcast, what kinds of things would you be interested in learning about? What kinds of interviews would you like to listen to? All ideas are welcome! Fill out this form to let me know.
Newly Funded Startups
Monkey Learn is building machine learning and AI technology that helps businesses unleash insights and information on all the unstructured, customer based data they have. They announced a $2.2 million Seed round of funding.
LogDNA provides simple to use system/application log management and analysis tools for software engineering teams. Companies use LogDNA to ensure their systems are running smoothly and to get alerted when there are issues. They just raised $25 million in a Series C round of funding.
If you have purchased medication from a direct to consumer company online, it’s very likely you have used Truepill. Truepill is building API driven products and services that enable companies to offer pharmaceuticals and healthcare services without the headache of building everything yourself. They just announced a $25 million round of financing. As telehealth and personal health services continue to expand online, it’s no doubt that Truepill will continue to see a surge in business.

Tips & Tricks
If you see a company you like but don’t see any available positions on their careers page, go to their LinkedIn and click See all (number) of employees. Reach out to one or more of the employees who may be able to tell you more about the company and if there are any roles available that would fit your skillset.
