Comcast | Sr Developer | Philadelphia PA | Full Time Onsite $110K+
Like what Amazon is doing with their AWS toolset? (current S3 troubles notwithstanding) Think you can do better? Want to get in on the ground floor of that effort?
If you can get over the fact that we’re not a very popular topic at dinner parties then we can make it worth your while and challenge your ability to channel and organize data streams for ourselves and our partners.
Comcast is -very- motivated when it comes to putting together tools and environments that leverage the literal crap-ton of data (yes, thats an official SI unit) that arrives on our doorstep every second. We’re not stuck on must-have tools, languages, or mindsets since we know that the most effective ones will eventually show themselves regardless. The same applies to the likes of yourself. We’re less interested in languages you code in, if you’re competent then you’ll be adaptable regardless.
Now, that said, our current toolsets include: Spark, Terraform, Ansible, Genie, Docker, Kubernetes, Kafka, Java, Scala, and a few others.
Tell us what drives you, what you’re passionate about.
Ping me at: br24 at comcast dot net I can tell you anything you need to know.
I grew up there and it really is great. Unfortunately housing prices have gone through the stratosphere and I'm 'stuck' in Seattle which although having a stronger tech presence, hasn't been hit as hard by the Chinese invasion.

We’re pulling data from over 20M machines in real-time, think you can help us get it under control? We’ve barely scratched the surface of whats possible and with the full AWS toolset at our disposal there isn’t much we can’t tackle. That is, not without your help.
So, if you’re seeking challenges just beyond your abilities with a passion for best practices, we’ve got the stability you want and the guarantee that your kids will still recognize you after you join. Heck, if they watch TV they’re already part of our beta testing programs! Unlike some of the other well-intentioned startups here we don’t provide cots under your desk, we work reasonable hours. With a monitor on your desk you can even watch HouseHunters/GameOfThrones/Spongebob until your eyes fall out.
You’ll be working with Kinesis and other data streams to syndicate a metric crap-ton of data (yes, thats a real SI unit) to visualize and glean insights across the whole swath of TV culture.
Send me links to your projects, something you're excited about.
