ChaCha

Multiple FULL-TIME & CONTRACT engineers in Carmel, IN (just outside Indianapolis)

Our engineers work on exciting and difficult problems - our goal is to answer any question algorithmically in realtime. That's a BIG challenge, and it requires a lot of NLP, search, code optimization, and other fun work.

Our website is currently ranked #46 in Quantcast's US rankings, and earlier this year we answered our 2 billionth question, so there's plenty of traffic & data to keep us busy.

We do most of our work in Java, but we also use Groovy & Grails, Rails, and a handful of other tools. Data-wise we use MySQL and Cassandra for OLTP, and primarily Hadoop & HBase for OLAP. We deploy to CentOS, and use git for SCM. We use a Kanban SDLC.

We have a very collaborative open office environment in an open-air mall with easy access to places like Whole Foods, Starbucks, and a number of great restaurants. Company lounge with an xbox, regular "office olympics", and plenty of other perks as well.
