SwiftStack - <a href="http://swiftstack.com" >http://swiftstack.com</a>
SwiftStack is building out large-scale object storage systems based on the OpenStack Swift project. Our customers are top 5 web properties and fortune 50 enterprises who want something that works like AWS S3 / Rackspace Cloud Files -- but provide it as an in-house offering. SwiftStack provides a distribution of OpenStack Swift and controller software to manage a deployment.
We are looking for engineers at all levels of the 'stack'. Python is the lingua-franca. Our management controller uses django, zeromq, graphite and all the math required to run a distributed storage system. To build the runtime component we are well versed in linux tuning, systems programming, load balancing, authentication, and filesystems.
We're big contributors to open source. Not just in OpenStack, but also the tools we use to deliver our product. Check out our github page: <a href="https://github.com/swiftstack" >https://github.com/swiftstack</a>
Please email me at REDACTED_EMAIL if you're interested. Thanks!
