[job] Clojure-related backend systems software engineer at Yieldbot

[vlj...@yieldbot.com]

We have a backend systems software engineer position open at Yieldbot. You'd be working with Mesos, Kafka, ElasticSearch, and Datomic. See below. Email me (vlj...@yieldbot.com) or DM me on the Clojurians slack (my username there is "ljosa").

It's been a while since I was at a meetup. If there's a lightning talk meetup sometime, I can talk about the various things that we use Clojure for at Yieldbot.
