The quickest way to convince your friends that you’re a nerd is to start talking about safety. There’s nothing cool about smoke detectors, security systems, or locks on your doors, but they’re all extremely important. It’s easy to take your personal security in your home for granted until your house gets broken into (happened to me in college) or your smoke alarm starts chirping in the middle of the night and you can’t turn it off (this is more frustrating than scary). There has to be a better way of protecting ourselves without having to be a total freak. Canary is a New York, NY based startup that is working on that exact problem. They have developed “patent pending technology to bridge the physical world and the mobile world” and keep your home secure.
What if you look at “home security as the intersection of artificial intelligence, human relations, and design-centered thinking?” You start to see that having a bunch of “dumb” boxes around your house isn’t much of a solution. But a “smart” solution has to be expensive and technology intensive, right? Canary disagrees. They are building a product for the “85% of homes in the U.S. have no security and no connectivity.” It’s a wild idea, but it might just work. Details are a bit sketchy on what Canary is actually building, but that only makes them more interesting. If they’ve captured your attention, take a look at their Jobs page. They don’t have any explicitly entry level positions right now, but there are paid internships in Marketing, Electrical Engineering, and Computer Engineering. These positions could lead to a full-time job, or you could just reach about something more permanent by e-mailing jobs@becanary.com.
