Miami, FL
Senzari.com - we are looking for REMOTE or ideally local candidates that want to disrupt the music industry and build the next big thing in music. We are working on a very exciting graph-based music platform and would love to hear from competent Java or Python developers.
We have two openings on our team at the moment - the first is for somebody that knows big data inside and out, preferably with a solid CS background and lots of experience with Hadoop/Cassandra and Java. The primary responsibility for this position will be to improve our recommendation engine and to help improve the overall quality of our platform. Experience with graph-based systems is a big plus.
The second opening is for Python/Javascript, and we are ideally looking for somebody that is really good with both. We are using coffeescript and backbone for our front-end, with Django for the REST api. Most of the data in postgres and some in Mongo. Experience building scalable sites is a must, and experience with polyglot persistence and distributed systems architecture is a big plus.
You will join a closely knit team that has been flying under the radar with this product for 1 year already and it is starting to pick up a lot of steam. We are very well funded and have great strategic partners (VH1, MTV). As far as culture, we are very pragmatic when it comes to technology and we are obviously very passionate about music.
Our compensation is competitive, excellent benefits, and of course we offer stock options. As if that wasn't enough we also get you setup with great hardware to build cool stuff on, with lots of free lunches and an absolutely gorgeous view from our office in Brickell Key, Miami.
Send an email to ctoivola @ our domain - would love to hear from anybody who is interested.
