Burt is looking for a distributed computing and data storage engineer. You should love big data and cluster computing, especially in the context of solving large-scale, real-world problems that improve our core products. An interest in teaching and enabling coworkers with this technology is ideal. The ideal candidate will dream about distributed systems for the parallel processing of massive quantities of data, be familiar with Hadoop/Pig/HBase and MapReduce, and frequently think to themselves, Yeah, that works for 500 MB of data; what about 500 TB?.
This position is full-time and based in our main office in Gothenburg, Sweden. We will do our best to help you relocate if necessary.
Responsibilities
- Work on the scalability, resilience, and efficiency of backend components, particularly Hadoop.
- Interface with other teams to incorporate their innovations and vice versa.
- Work with data analysis to construct creative solutions for supporting Burts products.
- Optimize our infrastructure at both the software and hardware level.
- Focus on scaling horizontally rather than vertically.
- Debug runtime problems and understand the interactions between systems,
- Build systems, libraries, and frameworks within, around, and on top of Hadoop.
- Code using primarily Java, Scala, and Python/Ruby.
Preferred experience
- BS or MS in Computer Science or equivalent work experience
- Experience with large-scale Hadoop clusters is a big plus
- Experience or interest in distributed network systems
- Knowledge developing and debugging in C/C++ and Java on *nix
- Experience developing with Python, Ruby, or PHP
- Experience with filesystems, server architectures, and distributed systems
- Deep knowledge of a compiled language
Working for a startup is fun and fast paced. If you havent experienced it before, its like no job youve ever had. If youre full of energy youll quickly find that this is a wonderful place to let all that energy out. Our employees create their roles, instead of us creating them for them.
