Who's Hiring?

• Software Engineer (DevOps). You are one of those rare engineers who loves to tinker with distributed systems at high scale. You know how to build these from scratch, and how to take a system that has reached a scalability limit and break through that barrier to new heights. You are a hands on doer, a code doctor, who loves to get something done the right way. You love designing clean APIs, data models, code structures and system architectures, but retain the humility to learn from others who see things differently. Apply to AppDynamics


• Software Engineer (C++). You will be responsible for building everything from proof-of-concepts and usability prototypes to deployment- quality code. You should have at least 1+ years of experience developing C++ libraries and APIs, and be comfortable with daily code submissions, delivering projects in short time frames, multi-tasking, handling interrupts, and collaborating with team members. Apply to AppDynamics

Fun and Informative Events

• Discover the secrets of scalability in IT. The cream of the Amsterdam and Berlin tech scene are coming together during TechSummit, hosted by LeaseWeb for a great day of tech talk. Find out how to build systems that will cope with constant change and create agile, successful businesses. Speakers from SoundCloud, Fugue, Google, Docker and other leading tech companies will share tips, techniques and the latest trends in a day of interactive presentations. But hurry. Tickets are limited and going fast! No wonder, since they are only €25 including lunch and beer.


• How can your business stand out from the crowd? Bringing to market an innovative differentiation – without too many technical challenges – can be the key. The most forward-looking organizations are coding business logic using the fastest, most agile and scalable technologies available today. In a webinar on May 11 entitled “Exposing Differentiation: A New Era of Scalable Infrastructure Arrives”, Data Scientist Dez Blanchfield and Chief Analyst Dr. Robin Bloor will explain how a nexus of innovations has transformed what’s possible. They’ll be briefed by Brian Bulkowski, CTO and Co-Founder of Aerospike (the high-performance NoSQL database), who will discuss how leading companies are changing their infrastructure to meet the new demands of customized digital experiences, fraud prevention, risk analysis, and other application and data uses.
