A few words about us:
We work with search and big data (Lucene, Solr, Nutch, Hadoop, MapReduce, HBase, etc.) on a daily basis and we present at conferences. Our projects with external clients range from 1 week to several months. Some clients are small startups, some are large international organizations. Some are top secret. New customers knock on our door regularly and this keeps us busy at pretty much all times. When we are not busy with clients we work on our products. We run search-lucene.com and search-hadoop.com. We participate in open-source projects and publish monthly Digest posts that cover Lucene, Solr, Nutch, Mahout, Hadoop, Hive, and HBase. We don’t write huge spec docs, we work in sprints, we multitask, and try our best to be agile. We send people to conferences, trainings (Hadoop, HBase, Cassandra), and certifications (2 of our team members are Cloudera Certified Hadoop Developers).
We are a small and mostly office-free, highly distributed team spanning 3 continents and 6 countries. We communicates via email, Skype voice/IM, BaseCamp. Some of our developers are in Eastern Europe, so we are especially open to new team members being in that area, but we are also interested in good people world-wide, from South America to Far East.
