Scalyr - Java Backend Engineer - San Francisco Mid-Peninsula (on-site) - $140-180k, 0.7-1.5% equity We know you have a choice of employers, and we thank you for flying Scalyr. We're looking for our fifth engineer, and it's a rare opportunity - the equity, influence, and fun of an early-stage company, with stability, great pay, and a low-stress, engineering-driven culture. We have great backers, strong traction, and an 11-digit target market. At one level, we're a server operations tool: log analysis, system metrics, dashboards and alerting. Underneath, we're building a super-high-speed distributed columnar database that enables interactive (subsecond) exploration of terabyte datasets; fronted by a lean, mean web UI. Users love our product, because it's fast, powerful, and straightforward. We love building our product, because we get to tackle fun challenges and we have customers who appreciate it. I've built half a dozen startups, including Writely (aka Google Docs), and I can honestly say this is my favorite so far. If you're interested in working on large-scale data filtering and aggregation, distributed systems, and extreme performance - drop me a line at steve@scalyr.com!
