As a recruiter I can provide advice on what I look for... Even if you cannot provide examples of your work, if you can explain what you can offer then most people can determine your skill level through coding exercises and just talking through examples. Hope that helps!

What You'll Do All Day: • Design and Deploy Triggit’s data tools including A/B testing, forecasting, etc. • Collaborate with multiple teams to implement requests into the Hadoop Cluster • Build and Optimize dozens of reports and create data visualization and storage tools around them • Grow and Scale the Hadoop Analytics Platform

Re:Ask HN: How complex is what you are working on? on Friday January 13, 2012 @12:19PM (#3461406)
Some of the most complex projects are also the least sexy.

At Triggit we are building technology around how to buy digital media. What does this mean? It means a start-up with less then 20 people evaluates over 12 billion ad impressions, across hundreds of millions of user records, every day. Since we bid and buy these ads in in Real Time we get less then 100 milliseconds to leverage the data provided by the sellers (people like google), the data provided by our clients (advertisers), internal data, and 3rd party data to dynamically evaluate and bid on inventory. We look at about 150,000 queries per second with hundreds of different bidders. Because of latency restraints and load balancing issues we can't work in the cloud, which means we must coordinate this entire effort across four data centers on three continents.

We legitimately deal with big data - so much data that its not worth storing the vast majority of it. Hadoop sort of keeps up, Hbase breaks regularly and the guys at MapR are up to some pretty cool stuff.

Who said an online advertising start-up couldn't be interesting :) Check it out at triggit.com.

Re:Being recruited in the USA on Wednesday January 04, 2012 @12:44PM (#3425023)
If you want an H1-B, you need to apply to start work on October 1. We didn't even put in an application for our H1-B candidate until September and he received his H1-B in early October. Clearly just another demonstration of the USAs primitive immigration policy!

You also have to be very careful coming to San Francisco to look for a job and then applying for an H1-B ...theoretically that is against 'the rules' so make sure both you and your future employer are comfortable with the situation.

I'd say try again next summer, I'd bet you find success. The $5K for an H1-B is nothing for a great dev!

Re:The real reason you can't hire developers.... on Wednesday December 14, 2011 @12:51PM (#3352777)
I think its a bit lower then that if you want to work at a start-up. We're paying Mid-Senior level from $120-150 (Full Stack). I vet hundreds of resumes a month, and we're pretty average / ahead of the game.

My kid brother just graduated CS from Berkeley and got offers ranging from 70-85, plus equity, benefits etc. Still high, but not quite $110k...
