| Description |  | "I really need a coffee. Actually, maybe I should save 3 bucks and get a coffee maker."
"My friend told me a great restaurant somewhere around Mountain View. Some Japanese Noodle place."
"It's my first time in Boston and I have no idea where to take my customer for dinner. Lobster sounds good, but how do I know which one is good?"
"Just landed in Mexico City. I think Mexican food in Mexico is just called 'food'. I could use a nice juicy hamburger. If only I could find a place without spending 4 years learning Spanish."
As the Lead Developer, you will design, develop and implement software that is to be able to answer these questions without ever even hearing them. You will lead the location-based search team for developing and enhancing the next generation engine designed specifically to take advantage of the location context. Development of this search engine will test the greatest of your abilities - algorithms, data structures, working with massive data sets, dynamic data and supporting massive parallelism. Do you just want to parse weblogs (to price AdWords) for the rest of your life, or do you want to change the world?
You will have access to the latest tools, technologies and a great team of skilled and talented developers. You will be expected to take a leadership role to not only meet the requirements - but to exceed them. You will work with the Product Manager to refine the next generation features and capabilities of the local search experience, define the technical scope of the project and keep a sharp focus on the delivery at hand while having an eye on the bigger goal. Your real focus will be around going outside of the box to develop the best local search for our customers - from key design decisions, implementation intricacies and on-going maintenance.
