You are a server shaman with a passion for working on large-scale Internet server systems. You are comfortable using a variety of programming languages and open source tools, and you dream in the cloud. You have real experience building high availability, high-performing, scalable services and can get into passionate arguments about event systems, messaging infrastructures, mapreduce, relational and NoSQL databases, and functional programming. For you dealing with lots of code goes with the territory and writing a service that runs on less than a thousand computers that generated less than a terabyte of data per day to analyze would be a waste of your time.
