We at Citus Data (http://citusdata.com) are building a scalable analytics database that lets you run SQL queries over hundreds of machines. Our database extends PostgreSQL. Citus can run analytic queries on data loaded into the distributed database, as well as on semi-structured data that lives in Hadoop clusters.
We are (yet) a small team of hardcore engineers who previously worked at Amazon and Cloudera. We are a Y Combinator S11 startup and are well-funded. Our investors include Data Collective, SV Angel, Trinity Ventures, and others who are well-versed in the software and enterprise space.
Our ideal teammates want to learn new technologies and solve hard problems. They are the outliers; they are self-motivated, relentlessly resourceful, and can build simple systems that solve complex problems.
Requirements:
* B.S or higher in Computer Science (or equivalent experience)
* Solid knowledge of one popular programming language and a scripting language
* Good understanding of algorithms, data structures, OS, and networking
* Good communication skills as you'll also be interacting with our customers
* Bias for getting stuff done
We offer competitive salary, significant equity, and standard benefits. We are hiring in Istanbul and San Francisco; and we're out there to build the best database company there is.
