Sr. Software Engineer (DevOps) at kCura

Why it's cool: kCura was recognized as a leader in Gartner's 2014 E-Discovery Magic Quadrant. It's always cool to be a leader in your field. 

What you'd do: You'd be at the reins of the tools that drive kCura. That means you'd get to write, design, support, test, and implement kCura's software developments.

Performance Engineer at Uptake

Why it's cool: Uptake describes itself as global, disruptive, and differentiated. If that doesn't sound cool enough, you'll also get to work with both on- and offshore teams. 

What you'd do: You'll be an preformance monitoring guru--understanding issues and fixing their causes, assessing current performance, and analyzing metrics. 

Who they're looking for: If you've got Maven, Docker, JMS, AMQP, Kafka, TCP, Drools, or Scala under your belt, you'll fit right in.

Linux Systems Engineer at Jellyvision

Why it's cool: Let's talk perks: Jellyvision's got competitive pay, casual dress, free food, and pretty awesome benefits. Oh--and they've got a message chair on-site, if that's your cup of tea. 

What you'd do: You'd be in charge of keeping things running smoothly: daily service operations, database maintenance, performance monitoring--the works. 

Who they're looking for: Besides three to five years of experience with distributed Linux administration, Jellyvision wants the whole package--learners, visionaries, comedians, and communicators, all wrapped into one.
