UI Developer at Aster Data Systems, Redwood City, CA
at Dheeraj Pandey in United States
Aster Data Systems is looking for a UI engineer and architect to join Aster Data Systems and spearhead the development of our web-based Server Management Console.
You will be responsible for developing a web interface to:
1. Report the status of all the servers, networking equipment in a 100+ node cluster to a systems admin/DBA
2. Manage 100+ server nodes and equipment in the cluster, including incorporating new nodes, restarting or removing failed nodes, etc.
3. Report the status of the database, including queries in flight and execution time, tables and storage space, etc. to a DBA
4. Manage the database e.g. canceling queries, rebalancing database partitioning, etc.
The Server Management Console is an absolutely essential element of our product - it is our customer's main interface; it is the window into the health and activity of mission critical IT infrastructure and their primary tool for managing a complex, scalable database and a large scale cluster of server systems. We want to hire an innovative and motivated UI engineering who is going to take charge of developing the SMC and make our product tops in usability.
Our product focuses on making data driven businesses succeed. As more data is gathered in day-to-day operations, it is becoming impossible to make sense of the data: look for patterns in business transactions, understand consumer and market behavior, and comprehend the feedback loop required for agility in business. It is both a technical and a financial challenge: current systems are either not scalable, or do not justify investment on price-performance basis. Our algorithms for data distribution, query processing, and parallel (commodity) computing provide the company a unique advantage in this market. The company also takes pride in its people -- their talent, energy, and down-to-earth attitude. The core of the company is forming as we speak. Most engineers come from Stanford or IITs, and are alums of Google, Yahoo, Microsoft, Oracle, or IBM Research.
Aster Data was founded by three Ph.D. students from the Computer Science Department at Stanford University and is backed by well-known Silicon Valley investors, including Sequoia Capital and several angels who were early investors in Google and VMWare. The company recently made a splash when we launched:

We already have customers using our database in a variety of roles – from storing and analyzing hundreds of terabytes of data across a hundred node cluster at Myspace, to a deep analytics engine for product recommendations at Aggregate Knowledge.
