Elastic | Software Engineer (Java) | REMOTE | Full-Time

We are on the lookout for a talented Java Engineer to join our Elasticsearch team. Seeking bright people with a deep knowledge of Java, algorithms, and concurrency and who love to take on new challenges. You will be working on areas of Elasticsearch that primarily deal with ingesting large volumes of data and the management of that data once indexed. For example, Index Lifecycle Management, Data Streams, and Ingest Pipelines are all part of data management. You can work fully remote from your home or (almost) anywhere in the world, though there’s a preference on EMEA for this role.

I’m happy to answer any questions! Reach me at matt.culbreth [at] elastic.co or apply here: https://jobs.elastic.co/jobs/elasticsearch/distributed-emea/...

DataStax | OpsCenter Engineer | REMOTE | https://datastax.wd5.myworkdayjobs.com/en-US/DataStaxCareers...

DataStax OpsCenter is the management and monitoring web application for the DataStax Enterprise (DSE) platform. DSE, based on Apache Cassandra, is a database specifically designed to efficiently distribute and replicate your data across multiple data centers, cloud regions, or hybrid environments.

The OpsCenter codebase currently consists of Java, Python, Clojure, and JavaScript. Familiarity with one or more of these is important, but even more important is the passion and ability to work on any part of an application and ability to learn and adapt quickly as the application and technologies underneath evolve.

DataStax | OpsCenter Developer | REMOTE | Full-Time

DataStax delivers Apache Cassandra™ in a database platform purpose built for the performance and availability demands of IOT, web, and mobile applications. We are looking for a talented full-stack developer to work on the OpsCenter Monitoring team. This position can be located globally.

The OpsCenter codebase currently consists of JavaScript, Clojure, and Python. OpsCenter is used to manage big data systems like Cassandra, Hadoop, Spark, and Solr. Familiarity with these or similar platforms will be helpful in this position.

Strong JavaScript experience, particularly building complex single page web applications with modern frameworks is a requirement. Experience with Dojo, esnext, ES6 would be good. Experience with charting libraries such as D3 or similar would be useful. You should be comfortable in either Clojure or Python. And of course, experience with Cassandra would be a great thing to see.

You can find my email in my profile here if interested. Thanks!

Atlanta, GA

Venture-backed security software company. Two kinds of opportunities:

* Python, Cassandra, Hadoop. Big data, map reducing it to find interesting stuff related to security and the web.

* Python, Django, jQuery and JavaScript. Making really cool UIs to help people analyze all that big data we find.

Atlanta, GA

Endgame Systems is hiring! If you are an exceptionally gifted engineer we want to speak to you.

We're hiring for a web developer position, ideally with this kind of experience:

  * Python

  * Django

  * MySQL, Cassandra

  * JavaScript, especially JQuery

  * CSS and grid-based layouts

  * Linux, shell scripting, git, sys admin chops

We're lean, have a well funded and managed operation, and we're leaders in the space. Join us.

Please get in touch with us at careers @ endgamesystems.com.

I got second place here for http://www.proggitftw.com. What a great contest.

I wrote a few Python scripts to scrape Proggit every few minutes, looking for new comments. Sending them to IndexTank was simple--just one call. On the Rails app for the searching, same thing--just one call and you can get the results from IndexTank.

I'm going to spend more time on it and make it a bit more usable. HelpShelf's highlighting is cool so I'll do that, and I think auto complete is a no brainer.

I've actually had a note (in Evernote) for a while now to "find replacement for Evernote or write my own."

Every time they release a new version I see item after item that's of no interest to me. I really just want a simple place to store to-do lists, notes, etc. and have it available on every machine and phone I use.

They do a lot more than that now, but yet you still can't edit a to-do list with checkboxes on the iPhone!

Endgame Systems, Atlanta GA: http://endgames.us and http://www.iptrust.com

With $29 million in a recent Series A round we are rapidly expanding. Endgame Systems is a security software and services company. Our recent http://www.iptrust.com app shows one of our applications.

We are current hiring two types of developers:

* Python: Django, JavaScript, Cassandra, MySQL. We use Python all throughout our stack and in our big NoSQL backend systems.

* Visualization: we have petabytes of security related data, and presenting this in a sharp UI is challenging. We're looking to build with HTML 5, Protovis, Flash, and other related technologies.

Sadly no remote work is available right now, but our midtown Atlanta office is cool.

Please email me at mattculbreth AT gmail.com.

Howdy, so this is ipTrust, my company's first commercial-side application. We're in Beta now but a premium version is coming out in January. Our main product is our API, which lets you build applications against our large and unique dataset of botnets seen in the wild.

I'd love to get some feedback on this if you are in a networking or security related field!

The correct answer of course is "both". There are many similarities between the languages and the frameworks, and there are good job opportunities for each.

Go do a side project with one of them and release it. Then go do another side project with the other and release that. Then go get a job or contract with one or the other. You'll be able to say you've used each, you'll be able to give pros and cons to each, etc.

Well if one of his primary reasons for going back was that he doesn't like schema-less databases, then it's a fair thing to say that Mongo was never the right choice.

Of course he may have needed to do this project to discover that.
