DESCRIPTION

Job Description:

Our backend developer focuses on improving and changing the core components of our state of the art, high volume and data intensive systems.

Our infrastructure runs on open source operating systems making knowledge of Linux a must. For visualizing and enabling our vast amounts of data, you will be working closely with our DBA’s operating our database clusters and Hadoop environments.
