Your Mission
In this high-visibility role, you’ll be a member of a small team working to ensure Hadoop uptime and reliability across all of ValueClick’s divisions. As a member of the corporate Hadoop team, you will help maintain the existing Apache Hadoop install as well as plan for additional divisions coming online with Apache Hadoop. You will act as the subject matter expert providing configuration and design support.

Is this you?
You possess good planning, scheduling, analytical and problem solving skills as you work with various teams across divisions.
You have prior experience working with extremely large (100+ GB) datasets. This means you know how to configure HDFS for optimal performance and data node configurations for large workloads (8-12K mappers).
Your experience with Apache Hadoop includes configuring Hadoop clusters while ensuring NameNode metadata safety. You’re also well-versed at job optimization techniques, and know how to look at the jobs running in a cluster and look for inefficiencies. You also come armed with examples of how you ensure HDFS compaction and monitoring.
You have strong knowledge of networking , specifically network capacity planning. This means that you understand what jobs need to be executed based on the type of data you have, and you know whether the network can support it, considering Hadoop workloads and internode transfers.
You’re proficient with Java and Shell Scripting. C experience is a plus.
You have good system-level troubleshooting skills. You have the ability to introspect running processes and spot bottlenecks.
You have a working knowledge of common Internet technologies (e.g. HTTP, HTML, JavaScript, AJAX) and some Version Control software experience (we use Perforce).
