what are the roles you're looking for at the startup?
- jgrahamc 18y agoI'm looking for two people: 1. A Java developer who's done lots of back-end work. Ideally someone who's built a server in Java that's had to scale to either a large amount of data or a high number of transactions. Someone really familiar with multi-threading. 2. A UI developer who's done stuff in Ajax and/or Flex. Would be very interesting if there's done extensive work on data visualization in a web browser, or on web-based applications that do fast real-time updates.
- akronim 18y agoCan you say what the general problem domain is? Doesn't seem to be on your blog?
- jgrahamc 18y agoNo. It's not on my blog because we are in stealth mode and not talking about what we are doing. Even interview candidates who get to the final stage have to sign an NDA. I know it's a pity not to be able to talk about it, but we have very good reasons (mostly around not awakening some large competitors who might try to rush through a project to make it look like they are doing the same thing) and are planning to launch everything (including the company name, web site, product and initial customer stories) at the same time. But if you are interested in doing Java server work handling terabytes of data, or really cutting edge Javascript work, or close to real time data visualization in a web browser using Flex then please contact me.
- pclark 18y agore: #2: got a degree in comp sci, I studied UXDA primarily -- good head for AJAX stuff (ruby background) and currently have serious interest in : a) data viz of data (Nytimes have gorgeous stuff) b) on the fly news processing and algo development for rapid filtration - project I've been toying with that filters a few hundred incoming RSS feeds and does magical organization with them. no stuff on the web yet, but am deffo curious. Got a detailed spec? peter@omgponi <!dot> es
