Hey John,

Hope you’ve been well. You may have already heard from me, but I just wanted to share that I’m onsite helping expand the ~25 person team at RelateIQ, an Accel & Formation 8-backed startup founded by ex-Palantir folks. We feel we’re at the cusp of popping: we’re building a stellar team with alums so far from Palantir, Dropbox, Apple, LinkedIn, etc., we just closed a significant Series B, and our new office is located in downtown Palo Alto. While you may not find a whole lot about us on the web since we’re rather stealth, you’ll start seeing some big news about us as we step more into the spotlight.

So what are we doing? Imagine if in a single place you can streamline ALL your digital communications (e.g. email, voice, calendar, SMS, Social Media, etc.) in real-time. What if this technology dissected the meaning (e.g. tone, sentiment, keywords, questions, etc.) of each communication, predicted the likely outcome of your relationship (good/bad), and then made recommendations to help you change the course of that relationship (from bad to good)?

Sound interesting? That’s what we’re building: a communication ingestion technology that provides insights into our relationships and recommends actions to intelligently and seamlessly enhance them. Nobody else is doing this. We will be processing more than half a billion events daily. Think of the tech challenges inherent in the consumption, processing, and understanding of this data.

We leverage cutting-edge technologies (Kafka, Storm, Redis, and Cassandra) and are hiring across all parts of our company: PM, Design, Mobile, Front-End, Backend, Data Science, DevOps, QA/QE along with non-engineering. We’re looking for passionate people who get excited about solving real-world problems, building a product that will be used by millions, and most importantly, being a key member on a world-class team.

I’d love to chat with you to share more about RelateIQ and our exciting trajectory.

Thanks for your time and I look forward to hearing from you!
