Like.com is the first and only style search engine with true visual
search. Our massively-distributed processing architecture indexes
millions of product images a day and makes them searchable by color,
shape and pattern.

We are looking for an experienced Java engineer to take our search
technology to the next level. You will also play a key role in
setting up architecture and design guidelines for enforcing best-
practices across the company.

All candidates should:

messaging
- Have experience with Hibernate (especially with Annotations) and be
able to explain all the different ways it caches results.

- Have knowledge of one or more of these technologies: Hadoop, Lustre,
GWT.
- Have several years experience building large-scale distributed
applications.
- Know when, how, and why to use caching technologies like Ehcache,
Memcached, etc

Ideal candidates should:
- Have deployed an application on EC2 or any computing cloud.
