Systems Engineer - SAP - Palo Alto, CA, USA

Our team has the mission to design and develop a massively scalable, multi-tenant aware, and extremely fast data management engine. Our whole stack is trimmed for delivering great performance, ranging from LLVM-based code generation for query execution to exploiting low-latency remote direct memory access communication.

We are at the very beginning of the project phase, still in research mode. Our goal is to expand from a research prototype to a productive version of our engine. In this process we make use of the newest technology stacks and cooperate with universities and research institutes.

Sauce Labs - San Francisco - Core Infrastructure Engineer

We're looking for backend hackers to help us scale our massive cloud of Windows, Mac and Linux virtual machines. If you're, like me, bored by all the media sharing rails/django/express webapps out there and want to solve complex problems, like horizontally scaling a highly available backend service, shoot me an email at santi at saucelabs. We're looking for SENIOR engineers with experience and interest in distributed systems. DevOps is a smaller part of what we do, but experience is a plus.

About Sauce: Sauce Labs is a SAAS+E2E series C startup in the bay area. We provide an automated testing cloud service so other companies don't have to build their own Selenium or Appium grids. We pride ourselves about our values and transparency (https://saucelabs.com/our-values). Oh, and a nice to have these days: we have a real business model!

About the Team: Our CORE team is currently 8 people and we plan to grow in a controlled fashion this year, hiring only excellent people who are excited about what we do. Most of the team is in SF, with some members in EU working on a re-location. We build a highly available service that runs thousands of customer Selenium tests in real time using VMs hosted in our own infrastructure. We own all our hardware and we collaborate tightly with our Ops team to manage it.

About our Stack: Sauce Labs runs on a Python + Twisted stack and we're currently discussing technology changes to take it to the next level (Go is a clear option). We use KVM, LXC and VMWare for virtualization, MySQL, Redis, RabbitMQ and other fine tools.
