You love working on open-ended problems that have never been solved before
RESPONSIBILITIES:   Lots of hands-on coding, testing, and scripting in a Linux environment
Design and implement algorithmic solutions to non-trivial problems
Analyze and improve existing algorithmic solutions (making them faster and more accurate)
Learn new domains quickly when necessary
REQUIREMENTS:   Experience writing code in a context where efficiency matters
Strong coding skills in C/C++
Deep grasp of algorithms and data-structures, with ability to innovate
Proficiency with one or more scripting languages
Strong command of Linux environment
BS/MS in Computer Science or equivalent
NICE TO HAVES:   Experience with search/relevance algorithms
