Because "massively parallel" machines, especially of the kind used for vision or ML processing at large scales, are often centralized.

Would that you had an Israeli branch I'd be sending my resume in, but I am not moving to Mountain View.

On the second hand, as long as I'm in the Bay Area until the end of October, would you want to get together in Mountain View one evening and talk about what your company does? I can agree to nondisclosure, obviously, and have no noncompetes on my head.

> Hardware like this has been on the horizon for a while, but it is just now becoming available to early adopters. Huh? It's in most (if not all) "enterprise" storage stacks.. are you speaking about a specific type of nvram?

It's now (sort of) available directly. We can stick an NVDIMM in our server and use it as really fast nonvolatile memory, instead of buying a fancy enterprise storage system (Fusion-io, Violin, etc.) that acts like a disk and may contain any of a number of interesting nonvolatile memory technologies.

The price, size, and performance characteristics of non-volatile memory in your server and the various fast disk replacements are very different.

Do you have some implicit requirements, like a degree from elite US schools or similar?

The requirement is that you be very good at the things we need. There are multiple ways to demonstrate this.

Smarkets, London, Software Engineer, Python, Erlang & Mobile

Smarkets is disrupting the global betting industry by offering a modern betting exchange with significantly lower transaction fees than the competition. We're a well-funded company with a small, agile development team, and our platform has handled over £365 million of bets since launching in 2010. Smarkets has been featured in publications such as Wired, The Wall Street Journal and TechCrunch and was recently selected as part of the Startups 100.

We're building a reliable, low-latency exchange system to facilitate automated traded strategies, as well as a fast, modern web interface. Our team constantly works on significant, challenging software engineering problems; if you're fed up of writing yet another boring CMS, we might be able to help. The Smarkets platform is written predominantly in Python and Erlang, and relies heavily on asynchronous programming techniques and REST. We make extensive use of version control, configuration management and automated testing, which allows us to reliably deploy code to production several times a day.

Our team builds on a modern, open-source software stack which includes Linux, Vagrant, Flask, Eventlet, PostgreSQL, RabbitMQ, ElasticSearch, Graphite, Chef and Git.
