About You
You want to solve really hard problems using cutting-edge web technologies with a team of smart and somewhat goofy people who take a surprising amount of joy from lobby karaoke contests, dance-offs, themed parties, ping pong tournaments and Poker? Then please apply immediately, because Moz is the right place for you!
About the position
At Moz our systems crawl the web, generate an inverse link graph of 10-20% of the Internet, apply lots of interesting algorithms (we use machine learning and advance modeling heuristics) to synthesize this data, and then serve up the petabytes of generated data via a highly scalable API. Oh, and we do all this in the cloud.
This position specifically involves the retrieval of data from the web. We are building a SOA to continuously build/update/maintain/distribute a schedule of crawl-able URLs and the associated distributed crawler network to crawl retrieve cross validate and provide data to the processing back-end. If you think SOA or SETI@Home was cool then this is a job for you!
Our ideal candidate has some experience with one or more of the following: highly scalable distributed systems, SOA, high performance computing search and cloud-based systems. You should be prepared to design systems, write code, and test your applications.
Qualifications:
- Required: BS in Computer Science (or a great reason for not having one) Nice to have (MS or PhD)
- Required: C++/Shell. Nice to have: Python/Java/Erlang/SQL
- Required: At least 2+ years of relevant industry experience
- Required: Linux/Unix development experience
- Nice to have: Experience with distributed/large-scale/cloud/big-data systems
- Nice to have: Knowledge of low latency/high volume APIs
- Nice to have: Data Modeling skills
- Nice to have: Startup experience is great.
- Nice to have: Open Source experience and contributions
