Hadoop, NoSQL and Big Data Job Trends
Apple is looking for a Hadoop administrator to help “redefine” adverting on mobile devices. TripAdvisor needs a software engineer to build out its bigger than 25 terabyte database. Nokia seeks an engineer to help analyze unlimited data points. And EMC wants a software engineer to build its Hadoop ecosytem and work closely with the Apache community.
At both Oracle OpenWorld and the Teradata Partner conference this week, the conversation will center on issues surrounding big data. The demand for people who can do this work is illustrated in the job postings.
