Metaome is a Bangalore-based software startup that is developing a search platform for biological data. Our product is a web application that provides a powerful search interface for data aggregated from many bioinformatics sources. The application is targetted at biologists and research scientists (both in academia and industry).

We are currently looking for some great programmers to join the existing team. You'll be expected to know/learn the following technical aspects:

- Large scale data processing: Requires proficiency in parallel programming, distributed and cloud computing. A desire to identify and fix performance issues at all levels of the stack - from CPU cache misses and thread contention to badly designed algorithms/data structures.

- Data analytics:  Statistical analysis over hundreds of millions of data items. Interest in graph databases and semantic technologies.

- Web application development: A high-performance, cutting edge Ajax app. Requires knowledge of the latest HTML5 advances.

- Web application scaling: Coping with highly CPU and memory intensive user queries in an effective way.

Our technology stack (prior experience not mandatory): We are a JVM, Linux shop. We use Java, Scala, Groovy and Javascript (with a touch of PHP and Python). We use one of the leading graph databases and a variety of SQL/NoSQL technologies like MySQL, Solr, Redis.
