Job Summary and Maps Team:
We are small team responsible for platform web-services and we make them responsive, resilient and elastic. We are looking for an engineer to join our team who shares the same drive and gets excited about working with technologies such as Scala, Cassandra, ElasticSearch, Kafka, Akka, Hadoop and Spark. There are multiple different apps/tools people can use for navigation and many of them are becoming very sophisticated. Apple Maps has struggled with making their Maps program one of the top. In order to compete with other Map's programs, they need to build out a data platform that houses/provides quality and valuable data that can be used to constructively design and build a stronger system for users.
