  Suggested rule of thumb: the more a company uses the words "big data," the less likely they are to actually implement machine learning algorithms in their day-to-day. "Big data" is, for the most part, large scale business analytics. You'll analyze Apache logs loaded onto a Hadoop cluster, clean the logs with a scripting language, use Hive/SQL to query your desired data, then analyze the result using R/Numpy. Sorry, this has been an issue recently (exacerbated by Strata NY).
