Job Description

Platform Technical Overview: To provide the extensive flexibility, the platform is designed as a SOA. It is broken into multiple functional units which can further autoscale independently. There is no standard stack which just fits for all. Stack of each functional unit is customized based on the use case.

Mostly web servers are a taken care by Jetty, nodeJS, PHP & play framework. There is no flash component. Its completely on html & JS. Since the platform is built for very high interaction. Most of the units are write heavy. And again depending on the use case different data-stores(MySql, Couchbase, Redis, Elasticsearch) have been in use.

If you are an innovator, you must have experienced or heard of docker.io (It is revolutionising the development). We at MindTickle extensively use docker in our development process.

And last but not the least, thanks to AWS. Feature like autoscaling and service like SQS saves a lot of effort and only add value to the infrastructure health.
