Hi all, brief message to let you know that we're in heavy hire mode at the Echo Nest. As many of you know we are very heavy solr/lucene users (~1bn documents across many many servers) and a lot of our staff have been working with and contributing to the projects over the years. We are a "music intelligence" company -- we crawl the web and do a lot of fancy math on music audio and text to then provide things like recommendation, feeds, remix capabilities, playlisting etc to a lot of music labels, social networks and small developers via a very popular API.
We are especially interested in people with Lucene & Solr experience who aren't afraid to get into the guts and push it to its limits. If any of these positions fit you please let me know. We are hiring full time in the Boston area (Davis Square, Somerville) for senior and junior engineers as well as data architects. http://the.echonest.com/company/jobs/ http://developer.echonest.com/docs/v4/ http://the.echonest.com/
