I'm using Scala instead of Java and I'm just picking up Clojure (although I have decades of FP exposure). I can imagine using both on a project for different purposes and for solving different sets of problems.

Hi, I am VP of Engineering for a financial technology startup Pico Quantitative Trading http://www.picotrading.com. We are located in New York and we are looking for people with Clojure and Financial background. We have around 20 thousand lines of Clojure code already and it is growing quickly. Anybody interested send an email to dimitry \dot gashinsky \at picotrading \dot com.

Re: Any Clojure job out there?
We're on the lookout to hire folks into Clojure. Our entire backend is now in Clojure. We're also leveraging Hadoop/HBase, RabbitMQ, and Javascript among other tech.. We are finding that the use of Clojure allows us to do things with a very small team that would have been quite difficult with other technologies. We're VERY happy with our choice to base our tech on Clojure. Finding people that can contribute immediately with background in one or more of our core tech platforms has been a bit difficult though.

Re: Any Clojure job out there?
The latest Thoughtworks technology radar says that clojure is the best of the functional languages out there at the moment. I'm hoping this will lead to greater adoption. http://www.thoughtworks.com/radar/ FTA: Of the current crop of functional languages, the one we like the most is Clojure: a simple, elegant implementation of Lisp on the JVM. The other two that we find interesting are Scala (a re-thinking of Java in functional form) and F#, the OCaml derivative from Microsoft that now appears “in the box” in Visual Studio 2010. cheers, Bruce -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.

Re: Any Clojure job out there?
I think the winds are changing out there with regards to company's willingness to explore multiple or alternative languages. Compass Labs is a silicon valley based social media startup company. Their data mining team just switched all their internal tools and data mining work to Clojure (production infrastructure is mostly Java/Scala/ C) and they're currently hiring for two positions and would give preference to qualified people with strong Lisp or Clojure backgrounds: 1) Senior machine learning engineers and/or team leads 2) Clojure infrastructure consultant They will make accommodation for outstanding engineers that don't quite fit the job spec. A significant Clojure project is necessary for the consulting position however.

Yes, that seems to be a common way of getting Clojure in! I'm just starting to look at Hadoop though, still lots to learn. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.

I find that while often it's politically difficult to use a new language as the primary language on a projects, it's quite possible to use a new language (Clojure, Scala, Ruby, Groovy, F#) in combination or instead of shell scripts for "scripting" tasks such as build scripts, test scripts etc. It's sometimes palatable to use the new language as a glue/integration layer between "libraries" written in the primary language (Java, C#). Once your favourite language is in use on your project, people will get used to seeing it and the barriers will slowly go down. Then you can drive your favourite language out into more and more of the non-scripting, "core/primary" application areas.

Any Clojure job out there?
Hi, I've been having lots of fun in the past months working in Clojure only on my own time and wonder if there's opportunities to be paid for it. Our community is growing everyday and I've heard that Clojure is being more and more used in the real world. So, is there any job opening for us Clojurians? P.S.: I don't want this post to be just for me, so I encourage you to post job offers from anywhere even if you're not searching for telecommuters. BTW, I'm in Montreal.
