Original posting

Talis | Birmingham | Onsite We are building great products for our universities to help students learn through digital methods. Our products were originally built exclusively in PHP, but we are moving to a microservices architecture implemented in a variety of technologies including PHP, Java, and node.js. The emphasis is on the right tool for the job, rather than worship at any particular technology alter. We make extensive use of NoSQL technology. Our core data platform is currently MongoDB but we also use redis & PostgreSQL. We like to crunch numbers, log files and whatever else we can get our hands on in Hadoop and Storm. We use a hybrid of cloud and co-located services. We track, time and monitor everything that moves. Currently we’re using a combination of Sensu, PagerDuty, Dashing, NewRelic, Graphite. It is only desirable, not essential, that you have experience in some or all of the technologies we use today. After all, they may not be the exact same set we use in 18 months time. The important thing is that you can demonstrate you are a quick learner, use and select technologies on their own merit, and can apply sound theory in your decisions and code. We are currently hiring a Head of Engineering Digital Marketing Devops Software Engineers for consulting division. http://talis-group-limited.workable.com/
