Original posting

Prometheus Research, New Haven, CT ; https://prometheusresearch.com * Sr. Dev Ops Engineer (New Haven, Chicago, or U.S. Remote) * Prometheus is building out our hosting infrastructure for customized OSS RexDB deployments. You'll be joining two competent systems folk, and a delightful product manager. We use reStructuredText and Sphinx for documentation, Python for scripting, Ansible for automation, and, soon Docker for application releases. We're also moving from Apache to nginx with the help of customized lua scripts. We're really interested in someone who has broad technical knowledge yet groks networks and security. To collaborate remotely with our staff and clients, you need to be an accomplished writer with solid task management skills. We're a custom development shop, with clients of varied technical skill levels; since our system group is often the primary contact for technical issues, you'll have to fearlessly tackle all sorts of challenges... both technical and political. Unfortunately, since access to Protected Health Information is required, we're only hiring in the U.S. for this position. * Sr. Application Developer (New Haven, or Worldwide Remote) * Our clients have all sorts of medical informatics challenges. Prometheus is also looking for someone to help build out our open source RexDB software (http://rexdb.org) and deliver customized applications using it. The backend is written in Python using PostgreSQL, and we're busy updating our client code to use Facebook's React toolkit. We're especially looking for someone who loves analytics, and wishes to improve HTSQL (http://htsql.org) with data processing and graphing features. For more information, you could browse the code base at http://bitbucket.org/rexdb/ and https://github.com/prometheusresearch Of course, it's great if you could join our core team in New Haven, CT. Since most of our company is remote, you will need to work independently, and, love to write succinct analysis and usage documentation. Thanks in advance for dropping us a note at hn-201407@prometheusresearch.com - Clark
