Nuuton. Remote. Looking for a Python programmer. Experience in search is a plus. I don't want a rock star, just a mature and responsible person who can get the work done. No crazy hours or crunch time. Nuuton does not have a ping pong table.

That is so me. I'm too busy right now though.

My LinkedIn profile starts with "Not looking for free soda, free lunches, nerf guns or ping-pong; just a nice cup of tea in the morning, a few potted plants, mature processes, and perhaps a great view of the city..."

VividCortex, Inc. (remote, Charlottesville, VA)

About Us: Our products help our customers measure, analyze and understand system behavior at a very deep level. There are good tools in the application and network layers, but usable tools for servers and databases are practically nonexistent. We’re fixing that, focusing first on tools for MySQL.

DevOps Brainiac

Our backend systems and infrastructure are all written in Go (it’s awesome). We are ramping up to handle a jaw-dropping amount of incoming data. Data storage involves MySQL, Cassandra and other storage technologies in a fault-tolerant, distributed environment. We're looking for someone who can switch in and out of a couple of developer and sysops roles -- writing some server software, setting up some machines, whipping up some Chef recipes, and so on. We're a small team, so the real job description is "we need another backend/infrastructure engineer."

Front End Brainiac

The web app is backed by PHP and Symfony2, and fronted by a lot of JavaScript, using up-to-date technologies and frameworks. There's a lot of API interaction from JavaScript, and a complex user interface that's key for making our customers rave about the experience, not just the technology. We'd love to find someone who can hop back and forth between the PHP, D3, Angular, etc., and it's even better if they've got some design sensibilities and can help shape the product's features and functionality too. If you've got the latter skillset, then the PHP coding is optional.

Email us at jobs@vividcortex.com if interested.

Tapad, NYC. (Software engineers: primarily scala, javascript)

We're pushing the envelope on writing high-performance and pragmatic software in Scala. We're in the real-time ad-tech space, which means that we make decisions on lots of data, very quickly (95th percentile latency ranges between 5-15ms on 100k qps for one of our main services, and we can maintain the same stats if we take down half of our servers). We also are rebuilding our analytics platform to provide ever-richer insights into this aggregate data.

If you're a front-end wizard{,ess}, we also have interesting and challenging work for you! Create intuitive visualizations of key performance metrics. Make it simple for account managers to tweak dozens (hundreds?) of possible settings in our backoffice app. You will be instrumental in driving design decisions.

tl;dr -> engineering-driven organization with fantastic people and growth.

Say hello -> toby at tapad dot com
