    ## AppNeta - Providence, RI and Boston, MA
    ##   application performance monitoring startup seeks engineers interested
    ##   in making the web faster
    ##

AppNeta is an application performance company that strives to elegantly answer questions about performance that developers and users face each day.  We make TraceView, which enables distributed tracing (like X-Trace, Google Dapper, or Twitter Zipkin) for all major web servers, frameworks, languages, and browsers, and provide a service that collects and analyzes that data to provide beautiful charts, graphs, heatmaps, and request detail that help our customers better understand their application performance in real time.
We are currently looking for full-stack and backend-focused engineers who are interested in building innovative performance tools and helping us scale to meet our ever-increasing faucet of customer traffic -- we currently process tens of thousands of events per second.  Our frontend is built with D3.js and Angular, and our backend is almost entirely Python, a bit of C++, MySQL, RabbitMQ, EC2, DynamoDB, Google BigQuery, S3, SQS, Hadoop, Celery, SQLAlchemy, etc.
We sit atop mountains of data and strive to provide intelligent, actionable insights for our customers about the performance of their app's code &amp; servers. Processing &amp; visualizing it all at scale is a big challenge, and we’re looking for talented engineers to help us.  We're especially interested in engineers with experience dealing with large amounts of data in Python.
TraceView grew out of a Google-Ventures-funded startup called "Tracelytics" and continues as a tight-knit, smart team backed by a strong, growing company that is investing heavily in our product's future.  Our application engineering team is made up of several engineers each in Boston and Providence, with our instrumentation team based in Vancouver.
