Hi folks, Parallel Scientific is looking for Haskell developers for distributed systems work. Parallel Scientific, Inc. is a Boulder, CO based funded startup company working in the area of scalable parallelization. We seek experienced Haskell programmers to build a sophisticated, ultra-scalable high availability framework to be used in conjunction with scientific applications, big data applications and I/O systems. We are primarily seeking candidates in Northern England, central France and/or Germany but candidates in other locations will be considered. Relocation to these places can be discussed. Parallel Scientific was founded by Dr Peter Braam in 2010. Peter formerly taught mathematics and computer science at Oxford and Carnegie Mellon. Then he contributed file systems to Linux and invented Lustre (which provides storage to 9 of the top 10 systems in the world). He ran several successful startups, and Parallel Scientific is run by an very experienced management team and board. Successful candidates will work in a modern virtual environment in their homes. Some travel may be required. We provide training in advanced processes for software design and implementation and domain specific knowledge. Required skills: Capability to design and implement sophisticated distributed algorithms (quorum, liveness, lock management, barriers) Very strong background in computer science or mathematics Experience with Haskell, or network and cluster programming in other functional languages (e.g. Erlang) Knowledge of systems programming and operating systems functionality Experience in one or more of the following areas is desirable: Experience in high availability clustering projects Experience with internals of sophisticated distributed I/O and/or database systems To apply, please send a resume to jobs@parsci.com.
