In case The One missed our posting two weeks ago..<p>Songkick (YC s2007) is looking for a gifted junior developer to work primarily on data acquisition: writing scrapers and implementing feeds to greedily acquire vast amounts of clean, useful data for our users.<p>This challenge requires a diverse range of skills: you’re going to have to read from other peoples’ APIs, parse HTML when no API is available, talk to our middleware messaging layer, and manage an ever-growing codebase of data-acquisition systems. You’ll have to be creative and think on your feet - we are often not talking to official APIs, and this results in a daily game of cat and mouse to keep the data flowing in. Having already gained some (up to 2 years) commercial development experience, you’ll be hungry to further hone your development skills at a high profile startup.<p>Your hard work will not go unnoticed, and we will do our part to help you build a highly successful career here at Songkick. This is an opportunity to join an experienced team and work alongside exciting talent on some very hard, very intriguing problems.<p>More details, and how to apply, at: <a href="http://bit.ly/kw8VT" rel="nofollow">http://bit.ly/kw8VT</a>
